Filling The Fuel Tank; During Operation Safety - Toro GreensPro 1260 Greens Roller Operator's Manual

Filling the Fuel Tank

•
For best results, use only clean, fresh (less than
30 days old), unleaded gasoline with an octane
rating of 87 or higher ((R+M)/2 rating method).
•
Ethanol: Gasoline with up to 10% ethanol
(gasohol) or 15% MTBE (methyl tertiary butyl
ether) by volume is acceptable. Ethanol and MTBE
are not the same. Gasoline with 15% ethanol
(E15) by volume is not approved for use. Never
use gasoline that contains more than 10% ethanol
by volume, such as E15 (contains 15% ethanol),
E20 (contains 20% ethanol), or E85 (contains 85%
ethanol). Using unapproved gasoline may cause
performance problems and/or engine damage,
which may not be covered under warranty.
•
Do not use gasoline containing methanol.
•
Do not store fuel either in the fuel tank or fuel
containers over the winter unless a fuel stabilizer
is used
•
Do not add oil to gasoline.
Fuel-Tank Capacity: 3.6 L (0.95 US gallons)
1. Clean around the fuel-tank cap and remove the
cap from the tank
(87 pump octane minimum) gasoline, fill the fuel
tank to approximately 25 mm (1 inch) below the
top of the tank to allow for fuel expansion.
Important:
Do not overfill the tank. Adding
fuel in excess of the prescribed level will
result in engine failure due to saturation
of the vapor recovery system, resulting
in engine performance failure. This is
not a warrantable failure and will require
replacement of the fuel-tank cap.
Important:
Never use methanol, gasoline
containing methanol, gasohol containing
more than 10% ethanol, gasoline additives,
premium gasoline, or white gas because the
fuel system could be damaged. Do not mix
oil with gasoline.
(Figure 22). Using unleaded
1. Maximum fuel level
2. Install the fuel-tank cap and wipe up any spilled
fuel.

During Operation Safety

General Safety
•
The owner/operator can prevent and is responsible
for accidents that may cause personal injury or
property damage.
•
Wear appropriate clothing, including eye
protection; slip-resistant, substantial foot
protection; long pants; and hearing protection. Tie
back long hair and do not wear loose jewelry.
•
Do not operate the machine while ill, tired, or
under the influence of alcohol or drugs.
•
Never carry passengers on the machine and keep
bystanders and pets away from the machine
during operation.
•
Operate the machine only in good visibility to avoid
holes or hidden hazards.
•
Avoid operating on wet grass. Reduced traction
could cause the machine to slide.
•
Before you start the engine, ensure that all drives
are in neutral, the parking brake is engaged, and
you are in the operating position.
