Storage Safety
• Shut off the machine, remove the key (if equipped), and wait for all movement to stop
before you leave the operator's position. Allow the machine to cool before adjusting,
servicing, cleaning, or storing it.
• Do not store the machine where there is an open flame, spark, or pilot light, such as on a
water heater or other appliance.
Storing the Machine

You can wash the machine with mild detergent and fresh clean water. Do not
pressure-wash the machine. Avoid excessive use of water, especially near the shift-
lever plate, the InfoCenter, the power center, and the machine power connector.
2. Check and tighten all fasteners. Repair or replace any part that is worn or damaged.
3. Paint all scratched or bare metal surfaces with paint available from your authorized Toro
distributor.
4. For prolonged storage, follow the battery storage requirements.
