Replacing the Hydraulic Filter

The hydraulic system filter head is equipped with a
service interval indicator. With the engine running,
view the indicator—it should be in the GREEN zone.
When the indicator is in the RED zone, the filter
element should be changed.
Use the Toro replacement filter (Part No. 94-2621).
IMPORTANT: Use of any other filter may void
the warranty on some components.

Checking Hydraulic Lines and
Hoses
Keep your body and hands away from pin-hole
leaks or nozzles that eject high-pressure hydraulic
fluid. Use cardboard or paper to find hydraulic
leaks. Hydraulic fluid escaping under pressure
can penetrate skin and cause injury. Fluid
accidentally injected into the skin must be
surgically removed within a few hours by a doctor
familiar with this form of injury or gangrene may
result.
Daily, check hydraulic lines and hoses for leaks,
kinked lines, loose mounting supports, wear, loose
fittings, weather deterioration and chemical
deterioration. Make all necessary repairs before
– 33 –
ignition switch.
Clean the area around the filter mounting area.
Place a drain pan under the filter and remove
the filter.

Lubricate the new filter gasket and fill the filter
with hydraulic fluid.
Assure the filter mounting area is clean. Screw
the filter on until the gasket contacts the
mounting plate. Then tighten the filter one-half
turn.
Start the engine and let it run for about two
minutes to purge air from the system. Stop the
engine and check for leaks.
