Draining Water From The Fuel Filter; Checking The Tire Pressure; Checking The Torque Of The Wheel Nuts; Checking The Reel-To-Bedknife Contact - Toro 04384 Operator's Manual

1. Hydraulic reservoir
3. If the fluid level is low, slowly fill the reservoir with the
appropriate hydraulic fluid until the level reaches the
bottom of the screen. Do not overfill.
Important: To prevent system contamination,
clean the top of the hydraulic fluid containers
before puncturing. Ensure the pour spout and
funnel are clean.
4. Install the reservoir cap. Wipe up any fluid that may
have spilled.
Important: Check level of hydraulic fluid before
engine is first started and daily thereafter.
Draining Water from the Fuel
Filter
Service Interval: Before each use or daily
1. Position the machine on a level surface and stop the
engine.
2. Place a drain pan under the fuel filter (Figure 27).
3. Open the drain plug on the bottom of the fuel filter
and drain any accumulated water (Figure 27). Tighten
the plug after draining.
Note: Because the accumulated water will be mixed
with diesel fuel, drain the fuel filter into a suitable
container and dispose of it properly.

Checking the Tire Pressure

Vary the tire pressure for the front wheels, depending
upon your turf conditions, from a minimum of 55 kPa to a
maximum of 83 kPa (8 to 12 psi).
Vary the tire pressure for the rear wheel from a minimum of
55 kPa to a maximum of 103 kPa (8 to 15 psi).
Checking the Torque of the
Wheel Nuts
Service Interval: After the first hour
WARNING
Failure to maintain proper torque of the wheel nuts
could result in personal injury.
Torque the wheel nuts to 95–122 N-m (70–90 ft-lb)
after 1–4 hours of operation and again after 10 hours
of operation. Torque every 200 hours thereafter.
Checking the Reel-to-Bedknife
Contact
Service Interval: Before each use or daily
Refer to Adjusting the Reel to Bedknife in the Cutting Unit
Operator's Manual.

Break-in Period

Refer to the Engine Manual supplied with the machine for oil
change and maintenance procedures recommended during
the break-in period.
Only 8 hours of mowing operation is required for the break-in
period.
Since the first hours of operation are critical to future
dependability of the machine, monitor its functions and
