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, located on the hydrostat, and on the
port located in-between ports M8 and P2 on
the rear traction manifold which is located
behind the front tire.

Jacking Points

There are jacking points located at the front and rear
of the machine.
•
On the frame at the inside of each front drive tire
•
At the center of the rear axle

Tie Downs

There are tie downs located at the front, rear and
sides of the machine.
•
Two on the front of the operator's platform
•
The rear bumper

Operating Characteristics

Practice driving the machine because it has a
hydrostatic transmission and its characteristics are
different than many turf maintenance machines. Some
points to consider when operating the traction unit,
cutting unit, or other implements are the transmission,
engine speed, load on the cutting blades or other
implement components, and the importance of the
brakes.
With Toro Smart Power™, the operator does not have
to listen to the engine speed in heavy conditions.
Smart Power prevents bogging down in heavy turf
by automatically controlling the machine speed and
optimizing cutting performance.
The brakes can be used to assist in turning the
machine. However, use them carefully, especially
on soft or wet grass because the turf may be torn
accidentally. Another benefit of the brakes is to
maintain traction. For example, in some slope
conditions, the uphill wheel slips and loses traction.
If this situation occurs, depress the uphill turn pedal
g020454 gradually and intermittently until the uphill wheel stops
slipping, thus, increasing traction on the downhill
wheel.
Traction Assist is now automatic and required no
operator input. When a wheel starts to slip, flow is
automatically split between the front and rear wheels
to minimize wheel slip and loss of traction.
Use extra care when operating the machine on slopes.
Make sure that the ROPS is in the raised position,
the seat latch is properly secured and the seat belt is
buckled. Drive slowly and avoid sharp turns on slopes
to prevent roll overs. For steering control, the cutting
unit must be lowered when going downhill.
Before stopping the engine, disengage all controls and
change the throttle to Slow. Changing the throttle to
Slow reduces high engine speed, noise, and vibration.
Turn the key to Off to stop the engine.
Before transporting the machine, raise the cutting
units and secure the transport latches
