Adjusting The Lift Arm Turn Around Position; Pushing Or Towing The Machine - Toro 03781 Operator's Manual

springs can be positioned on the back side of the spring
actuator to remove all counter balance (forth position).
1. Position the machine on a level surface, lower the
cutting units, stop the engine, engage the parking
brakes, and remove the key from ignition switch.
2. Insert a tube or similar object onto the long spring
end to relieve the spring tension during the adjustment
(Figure 38).
CAUTION
The springs are under tension.
Use caution when adjusting them.
3. While relieving the spring tension, remove the bolt
and locknut securing the spring actuator to the bracket
(Figure 38).
1. Spring
4. Move the spring actuator to the desired hole location
and secure with locknut.
5. Repeat the procedure on the remaining spring.
Adjusting the Lift Arm Turn
Around Position
1. Position the machine on a level surface, lower the
cutting units, stop the engine, engage the parking
brakes, and remove the key from ignition switch.
2. The lift arm switch is located behind the front right
lift arm (Figure 39).

3. Loosen the switch mounting screws (Figure 39) and
move the switch up to increase the lift arm turn around
height or move the switch down to decrease the lift
arm turn around height. Tighten the mounting screws.
Pushing or Towing the
Machine
In an emergency, the machine can be moved forward by
actuating the bypass valve in the variable displacement
hydraulic pump and pushing or towing the machine. Do not
push or tow the machine for more than 1/4 mile (0.4 km).
Important: Do not push or tow the machine faster than
3-4.8 km/h (2-3 MPH) because internal transmission
damage may occur. The bypass valve must be open
whenever the machine is pushed or towed.
Important: If the machine must to be pushed or
towed in reverse, the check valve in the four-wheel
drive manifold must also be bypassed. To bypass the
check valve, connect a hose assembly (Hose Part No.
95-8843, Coupler Fitting No. 95-0985 [Qty. 2], and
Hydraulic Fitting No. 340-77 [Qty. 2]) to the reverse
traction pressure test port and the reverse four-wheel
drive pressure port.
1. Open hood and remove the center shroud
2. Rotate the bypass valve 90° (1/4 turn) in either
direction to open and allow oil to bypass internally
(Figure 40). Because fluid is bypassed, the machine can
be slowly moved without damaging the transmission.
Note the position of the valve when opening or closing.
