Checking The Engine-Oil Level; Removing Debris From The Traction Unit; Checking The Hydraulic Fluid Level - Toro 22318 Operator's Manual

Filling the Fuel Tank
1. Park the traction unit on a level surface, lower the
loader arms, and stop the engine.
2. Remove the key and allow the engine to cool.
3. Clean around the fuel tank cap and remove it.
Note: The cap is tethered to the fuel tank.
4. Add unleaded gasoline to the fuel tank, until the level
is 1/4 to 1/2 inch (6 to 13 mm) below the bottom of
the filler neck.
Important: This space in the tank allows gasoline
to expand. Do not fill the fuel tank completely full.
5. Install the fuel tank cap securely, turning it until it clicks.
6. Wipe up any gasoline that may have spilled.

Checking the Engine-Oil Level

Service Interval: Before each use or daily
1. Park the traction unit on a level surface, lower the
loader arms, and stop the engine.
2. Remove the key and allow the engine to cool.
3. Clean around the oil dipstick
1. Oil dipstick
2. Filler cap
4. Pull out the dipstick and wipe the metal end clean
(Figure 8).
5. Slide the dipstick fully into the dipstick tube
6. Pull the dipstick out and look at the metal end.
7. If the oil level is low, clean around the oil filler cap and
remove the cap (Figure
8. Slowly pour only enough oil into the valve cover to
raise the level to the F (full) mark.
Important: Do not overfill the crankcase with oil
because the engine may be damaged.

Removing Debris from the
Traction Unit
Service Interval: Before each use or daily
Important: Operating the engine with a blocked grass
screen, dirty or plugged cooling fins, and/or cooling
shrouds removed will result in engine damage from
overheating.
1. Park the traction unit on a level surface, raise the loader
arms, and install the cylinder locks.
2. Stop the engine and remove the key.
3. Clean any debris from the grill before each use and/or
during use, if required.
4. Wipe away debris from the air cleaner before each use
and/or during use, if required.
5. Clean any debris build-up on the engine with a brush
or blower before each use.
Important: It is preferable to blow dirt out, rather
than washing it out. If water is used, keep it away
from electrical items and hydraulic valves. Do
not use a high-pressure washer. High-pressure
washing can damage the electrical system and
hydraulic valves or deplete grease.
6. Remove and store the cylinder locks and lower the
loader arms.
Checking the Hydraulic Fluid
Level
Service Interval: Every 25 hours
Hydraulic Tank Capacity:62L (16.3 US gallons)
Refer to Changing the Hydraulic Fluid (page 29)
fluid specifications.
Important: Always use the correct hydraulic fluid.
Unspecified fluids will damage the hydraulic system.
1. Remove the attachment, if one is installed.
2. Park the traction unit on a level surface, raise the loader
arms, and install the cylinder locks.
