Raising/Lowering The Seat; Pushing The Machine By Hand - Toro 30534 Operator's Manual

Changing the Backrest Position
The back of the seat can be adjusted to provide a more
comfortable ride. Position the back of the seat where it is
most comfortable.
Pull up the locking lever to release the backrest catch (Figure
31). When releasing the backrest catch, do not apply load to
the backrest by pressing against it.
By exerting pressure on or off the front or rear of the seat it
can be moved to the desired position. Release the locking
lever to lock the backrest.
Note: The backrest should not be able to move the into
another position after it has been locked.

need to unlatch the seat and swing it forward.

Pushing the Machine by Hand

If the machine stalls, runs out of fuel, etc. you may need to
push it. To do so, you first need to open both of the hydraulic
by-pass valves.
Important: Always push the machine by hand and
never a long distance. Never tow the machine because
hydraulic damage may occur.
Pushing the Machine
1. Disengage the power take off (PTO), turn the ignition
key to off and apply the parking brake.
2. Remove the key from the ignition switch. Both
by-pass valves must be opened.
3. Lift the seat.
4. Rotate each by-pass valve counterclockwise 1 turn
(Figure 34).
This allows hydraulic fluid to by-pass the pump
enabling the wheels to turn.
Important: Do not rotate the by-pass valves more
than 1 turn. This prevents valves from coming out
of the body and causing fluid to run out.
5. Disengage the parking brake before pushing.
Changing to Machine Operation
Rotate each by-pass valve clockwise 1 turn and hand tighten
them (torque of approximately 8 N-m [71 in-lb]) (Figure 34).
Note: Do not over tighten the by-pass valves.
The machine will not drive unless the by-pass valves are
turned in.
