Unloading; Traveling; Hills; Parking - Toro ProPass 200 Operator's Manual

Unloading

WARNING
Keep hands and feet away from the hopper guard on
the spinner guard and the spinner assembly when
the machine is operating or when the hydraulic
power pack engine, on the tow vehicle, is running.
Do not stand behind the machine when unloading or
spreading. The Twin Spinner ejects particles and dust at a
high speed.
Do not unload the machine while it is on a slope.
WARNING
Ensure that the machine is connected to the tow
vehicle before unloading. Otherwise, the load may
shift and the machine may tip over.

Traveling

The machine is designed only for off-road use. The maximum
recommended speed without a load is 15 mph (24 km/h).
Maintain safe control of the machine. Do not attempt sharp
turns, abrupt manoeuvres, or other unsafe driving actions.
Slow down before turning, especially on wet, sandy, and
slippery surfaces. Turning clearances are limited if you have
an option mounted on the machine.
CAUTION
Be aware of your surroundings when turning or
backing up. Ensure that the area is clear and keep
all bystanders at a safe distance. Proceed slowly.
Turn off the option when approaching people, vehicles,
vehicle crossings, or pedestrian crossings.
Note: Heavy loads and wet or rough surfaces increase the
time it takes to stop, and reduce the ability to turn quickly
and safely.

Hills

WARNING
Use extreme caution when traveling on hills,
especially when turning.
Always travel straight up and down hills—do not travel
sideways or on a diagonal. Stopping distance increases when
traveling down a hill.
Reduce the weight of the load when traveling on hills. Avoid
piling the load high—a higher center of gravity increases the
risk of the machine tipping over on hills.
If you have an option on the machine, be aware of the ground
clearance when traveling on hills. When the machine begins
to travel up a slope the ground clearance decreases.

Parking

Always park the machine on a firm, horizontal, and level
surface. Place blocks under two wheels of the machine (front
and back).
WARNING
Do not disconnect the machine from the tow vehicle
on a slope. Ensure that the front jack is in the
support position.
To rotate the jack stand from a down support position to a
traveling horizontal position, pull out the jack stand support
pin and swivel the jack. Ensure that the jack stand is attached
to the machine and in the correct position during operation.
On Toro tow-behind chassis the jack stand is located on the
hitch tube (Figure 47). On Truckster direct connect chassis
two jack stands are used
mounts on the rear of the chassis during operation.
