Perform a recovery-regeneration whenever
there is a loss of engine power and a parked
regeneration cannot effectively clean the DPF of
soot.
A recovery regeneration requires up to 4 hours
to complete.
You need a distributor technician to perform the
recovery regeneration process; contact your
Authorized Toro Distributor.
Pushing the Machine by
Hand
If the machine stalls, runs out of fuel, etc. you may
need to push it. To do so, you first need to open both
of the hydraulic by-pass valves.
Important:
Always push the machine by hand
and never a long distance. Never tow the machine
because hydraulic damage may occur.
Pushing the Machine
1. Disengage the power take off (PTO), turn the
ignition key to off and apply the parking brake.
2. Remove the key from the ignition switch. Both
by-pass valves must be opened.
3. Lift the seat.
4. Rotate each by-pass valve counterclockwise
1 turn
(Figure
43).
This allows hydraulic fluid to by-pass the pump
enabling the wheels to turn.
Important:
Do not rotate the by-pass valves
more than 1 turn. This prevents valves from
coming out of the body and causing fluid to
run out.
5. Disengage the parking brake before pushing.
Changing to Machine Operation
Rotate each by-pass valve clockwise 1 turn and hand
tighten them (torque of approximately 8 N-m [71 in-lb])
(Figure
43).
Note:
Do not over tighten the by-pass valves.
The machine will not drive unless the by-pass valves
are turned in.

Loading Machines

Use extreme caution when loading units on trailers
or trucks. One full width ramp that is wide enough to
extend beyond the rear tires is recommended instead
of individual ramps for each side of the unit
44). The lower rear section of the tractor frame
extends back between the rear wheels and serves as
a stop for tipping backward. Having a full width ramp
provides a surface for the frame members to contact if
the unit starts to tip backward. If it is not possible to
use one full width ramp, use enough individual ramps
to simulate a full width continuous ramp.
The ramp should be long enough so that the angles do
not exceed 15 degrees
may cause machine components to get caught as
the unit moves from ramp to trailer or truck. Steeper
angles may also cause the unit to tip backward. If
loading on or near a slope, position the trailer or
truck so it is on the down side of the slope and the
ramp extends up the slope. This will minimize the
ramp angle. The trailer or truck should be as level
as possible.
Important:
Do not attempt to turn the unit while
on the ramp; you may lose control and drive off
the side.
Avoid sudden acceleration when driving up a ramp
and sudden deceleration when backing down a ramp.
Both maneuvers can cause the unit to tip backward.
