Changing Engine Oil And Filter; Servicing Fuel System - Toro 30241 Operator's Manual

To thoroughly clean the radiator:
1. Remove the screen.
2. Working from the fan side of the radiator, either spray
the radiator with a water hose or blow with compressed
air.
3. After the radiator is thoroughly cleaned, clean out
debris that may have collected in the channel at the
radiator base.
4. Clean and install the screen.

Changing Engine Oil And Filter

Check oil level after each day's operation or each time
machine is used. Change oil and filter initially after first 50
hours of operation; change oil and filter after every 100
hours of operation thereafter. If possible, run engine just
before changing oil because warm oil flows better and
carries more contaminants than cold oil.
1. Position machine on a level surface.
2. Open the hood. Set drain pan under the oil pan and in
line with drain plug (Fig. 42).
3. Clean area around drain plug.
