Industry Specifications:
Vickers I-286-S (Quality Level), Vickers M-2950-S
(Quality Level), Denison HF-0
Important: The ISO VG 46 Multigrade fluid has been
found to offer optimal performance in a wide range of
temperature conditions. For operation in consistently
high ambient temperatures, 18° C (65° F) to 49° C
(120° F), ISO VG 68 hydraulic fluid may offer improved
performance.
Premium Biodegradable Hydraulic Fluid-Mobil EAL
EnviroSyn 46H
Important: Mobil EAL EnviroSyn 46H is the only
synthetic biodegradable fluid approved by Toro. This
fluid is compatible with the elastomers used in Toro
hydraulic systems and is suitable for a wide-range
of temperature conditions. This fluid is compatible
with conventional mineral oils, but for maximum
biodegradability and performance the hydraulic system
should be thoroughly flushed of conventional fluid. The
oil is available in 19 L (5 gallon) containers or 55 gallon
drums from your Mobil Distributor.
Important: Many hydraulic fluids are almost colorless,
making it difficult to spot leaks. A red dye additive
for the hydraulic system oil is available in 20 ml (2/3
oz) bottles. One bottle is sufficient for 15-22 L (4-6
gallons) of hydraulic fluid. Order part no. 44-2500 from
your authorized Toro distributor. This red dye is not
recommended for use with biodegradable fluids. Use
food coloring.
Important: Regardless of the hydraulic fluid type
used, any traction unit used for off green applications,
verticutting or used during ambient temperatures above
29° C (85° F) should have Oil Cooler Kit installed; refer
to

Filling the Hydraulic Tank
1. Position the machine on a level surface. Make sure the
machine has cooled down so the oil is cold.
2. Remove the cap from the reservoir

Contact
Each day before operating the machine, check the
reel-to-bedknife contact, regardless if the quality of cut had
previously been acceptable. There must be light contact

Checking the Tire Pressure

Vary the tire pressure for the front wheels, depending upon
your turf conditions, from a minimum of 83 to a maximum
of 110 kPa (12 psi to 16 psi).
Vary the tire pressure for the rear wheel from a minimum of
83 to a maximum of 110 kPa (12 psi to 16 psi).

window in the front of the reservoir. Do not overfill.
Important: To prevent system contamination,
clean the top of the hydraulic fluid containers
before puncturing. Ensure the pour spout and
funnel are clean.

Important: Check level of hydraulic fluid before
engine is first started and daily thereafter.
