Starting And Stopping The Engine; Using The Smart Power™ Feature; Reversing Fan Operation; Auto Idle - Toro 30605 Operator's Manual

Starting and Stopping the
Engine
Important: The fuel system automatically bleeds itself
when any of the following situations occur:
•
Initial start up of a new machine
•
The engine has ceased running due to lack of fuel.
•
Maintenance has been performed upon the fuel-system
components.
1. Ensure that the parking brake is set.
2. Remove your foot from the traction pedal and ensure
that it is in neutral.
3. Turn the ignition key to the R
4. When the glow indicator dims, turn the ignition key
to the S position. Release the key immediately
TART
when the engine starts and allow it to return to the Run
position.
Note: Allow engine to warm up at medium speed
(without a load), then move the
the desired position.
Important: Do not run the starter motor more
than 30 seconds at a time; otherwise, premature
starter failure may result. If the engine fails to
start after 30 seconds, turn the key to the O
position, check the controls and procedures again,
wait 30 additional seconds, and repeat the starting
procedure.
5. To stop the engine, move the PTO switch to the O
position, set the parking brake, return the throttle
setting to low idle, rotate the ignition key to Off, and
remove the key from the switch to prevent accidental
starting.
Important: Allow engine to idle for 5 minutes before
shutting it off after a full load operation. Failure to do
so may lead to turbo-charger trouble.
Using the Smart Power™
Feature
With Toro Smart Power™, you do not need to listen to the
engine speed in heavy conditions. Smart Power prevents
bogging down in heavy turf by automatically controlling the
machine speed and optimizing cutting performance. You can
set a maximum ground speed that is comfortable and mow
without having to manually reduce the traction speed when
mowing in heavy conditions.

Reversing Fan Operation

The fan speed is controlled by the temperature of the
hydraulic oil and the engine coolant. A reverse cycle is
automatically initiated when either the temperature of the

engine coolant or hydraulic oil reaches a certain limit. This
reversal helps blow debris off the rear screen and lower the
engine- and hydraulic-oil temperatures. By simultaneously
pressing the right and left buttons on the InfoCenter, the fan
will complete a manually initiated reverse cycle. Manually
reverse the fan prior to leaving the work area or entering the
shop or storage area.

Auto Idle

The machine is equipped with auto idle, which automatically
idles the engine when all of the following functions are
not used, for a pre-determined time, previously set in the
InfoCenter.
•
The traction pedal is returned to the N
•
The PTO is disengaged
•
None of the lift switches are activated
When any of the above functions are initiated, the
machine automatically returns to the previous throttle
position.
