Using Attachments

Installing an Attachment
Important: Use only Toro-approved attachments.
Attachments can change the stability and the operating
characteristics of the traction unit. The warranty of the
traction unit may be voided if used with unapproved
attachments.
Important: Before installing the attachment, ensure
that the mount plates are free of any dirt or debris and
that the pins rotate freely. If the pins do not rotate freely,
grease them.
1. Position the attachment on a level surface with enough
space behind it to accommodate the traction unit.
2. Start the engine.
3. Tilt the attachment mount plate forward.
4. Position mount plate into the upper lip of the
attachment receiver plate

2. Receiver plate
Important: The attachment should be raised
enough to clear the ground, and the mount plate
should be tilted all the way back.
6. Stop the engine.
7. Engage the quick attach pins, ensuring that they are
fully seated in the mount plate
Important: If the pins do not rotate to the
engaged position, the mount plate is not fully
aligned with the holes in the attachment receiver
plate. Check the receiver plate and clean it if
necessary.

WARNING
If you do not fully seat the quick attach pins
through the attachment mount plate, the
attachment could fall off of the traction unit,
crushing you or bystanders.
Ensure that your quick attach pins are fully
seated in the attachment mount plate.
Connecting the Hydraulic Hoses
If the attachment requires hydraulics for operation, connect
the hydraulic hoses as follows:
1. Stop the engine.
2. Move the auxiliary hydraulics lever forward, backward,
and back to neutral to relieve pressure at the hydraulic
couplers.
3. Move the auxiliary hydraulics lever forward into the
detent position.
