Servicing the Air Cleaner
Service Interval: Every 400 hours
1. Pull the latch outward and rotate the air-cleaner cover
counter-clockwise (Figure
2. Remove the cover from the air-cleaner body
31).
3. Before removing the filter, use low pressure air (40 psi,
clean and dry) to help remove large accumulations of
debris packed between outside of primary filter and
the canister.
This cleaning process prevents debris from migrating
into the intake when the primary filter is removed.
Important: Avoid using high-pressure air which
could force dirt through the filter into the intake
tract.
4. Remove and replace the primary filter
Important: Do not clean the used element to
avoid damage to the filter media.
5. Inspect the new filter for shipping damage, checking
the sealing end of the filter and the body.
Important: Do not use a damaged element.
6. Ensure that the foam gasket is in place in the cover and
that it is not torn or damaged
Note: If it is damaged, replace it.
7. Insert the new filter by applying pressure to the outer
rim of the element to seat it in the canister.

Servicing the Engine Oil

Checking the Engine Oil Level
Service Interval: Before each use or daily
The engine is shipped with oil in the crankcase; however, the
oil level must be checked before and after the engine is first
started.
The crankcase capacity is 5.2 liters (5.5 qt) with the filter.
Use high-quality engine oil that meets the following
specifications:
•
API Classification Level Required: CJ-4 or higher.
•
Preferred oil: SAE 15W-40 (above 0°F)
•
Alternate oil: SAE 10W-30 or 5W-30 (all temperatures)
Important: Using non CJ-4 or higher oil will cause
DPF plugging and damage the engine.
Toro Premium Engine Oil is available from your distributor
in either 15W-40 or 10W-30 viscosity. See the parts catalog
for part numbers.
Note: The best time to check the engine oil is when the
engine is cool before it has been started for the day. If it has
already been run, allow the oil to drain back down to the
sump for at least 10 minutes before checking. If the oil level
is at or below the "add" mark on the dipstick, add oil to bring
the oil level to the "full" mark. DO NOT OVERFILL.
If the oil level is between the "full" and "add" marks, no
additional oil is required.
1. Park the machine on a level surface. Unlock the engine
cover latches.
2. Open the engine cover.
3. Remove the dipstick, wipe it clean, install the dipstick
into the tube, and pull it out again. The oil level should
be between the full and add marks
