Slope Operation

Slopes are a major factor related to slip and fall accidents, which can result in severe injury. Operation on all slopes require extra caution. If you feel uneasy on a slope, do not mow it.

• Mow across the face of slopes; never up and down.

Exercise extreme caution when changing direction on slopes.

• Watch for holes, ruts, bumps, rocks, or other hidden objects. Uneven terrain could cause a slip and fall accident. Tall grass can hide obstacles.

• Do not mow on wet grass or excessively steep slopes.

Poor footing could cause a slip and fall accident.

• Do not mow near drop-offs, ditches, or embankments.

You could lose your footing or balance.

Children

Tragic accidents can occur if the operator is not alert to the presence of children. Children are often attracted to the machine and the mowing activity. Never assume that children will remain where you last saw them.

• Keep children out of the mowing area and under the watchful care of a responsible adult other than the operator.

• Be alert and turn mower off if a child enters the area.

• Never allow children to operate the machine.

• Use extra care when approaching blind corners, shrubs, trees, or other objects that may block your view of a child.

Operation

Filling the Fuel Tank

Checking the Engine Oil Level

1. Remove the dipstick, wipe it clean, and fully install the dipstick (Figure 12).

Gasoline is extremely flammable and explosive. A fire or explosion from gasoline can burn you and others.

• To prevent a static charge from igniting the gasoline, place the container and/or mower directly on the ground before filling, not in a vehicle or on an object.

• Fill the tank outdoors when the engine is cold.

Wipe up spills.

• Do not handle gasoline when smoking or around an open flame or sparks.

• Store gasoline in an approved fuel container, out of the reach of children.

Fill the fuel tank with fresh unleaded regular gasoline from a major name-brand service station (Figure 11).

Note: Never use methanol, gasoline containing methanol, or gasohol containing more than 10% ethanol because the fuel system could be damaged. Do not mix oil with gasoline.

Important: To reduce starting problems, add fuel stabilizer to the fuel all season, mixing it with gasoline less than 30 days old.

Figure 12

2. Remove the dipstick and check the oil level (Figure 12).

If the oil level is below the Add mark on the dipstick,

slowly pour oil into the oil fill tube to raise the oil level to the Full mark on the dipstick. Do not overfill.

(Max. fill: 20 oz. (0.59 l), type: SAE 30W detergent oil with an API service classification of SF, SG, SH, SJ,

SL, or higher.)

3. Install the dipstick securely.

Operating Tips

General Mowing Tips

• Clear the area of sticks, stones, wire, branches, and other debris that the blade could hit.

• Avoid striking solid objects with the blade. Never deliberately mow over any object.

• If the mower strikes an object or starts to vibrate, immediately stop the engine, disconnect the wire from the spark plug, and examine the mower for damage.

• For best performance, install a new blade before the cutting season begins.

• Replace the blade when necessary with a Toro replacement blade.

Cutting Grass

• Cut only about a third of the grass blade at a time. Do not cut below the 2-inch (51 mm) setting unless the grass is sparse or it is late fall when grass growth begins to slow down. Refer to Adjusting the Cutting Height.

• When cutting grass over 6 inches (15 cm) tall, mow at the highest cutting height setting and walk slower; then mow again at a lower setting for the best lawn appearance. If the grass is too long, the mower may plug and cause the engine to stall.

• Mow only dry grass or leaves. Wet grass and leaves tend to clump on the yard and can cause the mower to plug or the engine to stall.

Figure 22

Removing the Side Discharge Chute

To remove the side discharge chute, reverse the steps above.

Important: Lock the side discharge door after you close it (Figure 23).

Wet grass or leaves can cause serious injury if you slip and contact the blade. Mow only in dry conditions.

• Be aware of a potential fire hazard in very dry conditions, follow all local fire warnings, and keep the mower free of dry grass and leaf debris.

13

• Alternate the mowing direction. This helps disperse the clippings over the lawn for even fertilization.

• If the finished lawn appearance is unsatisfactory, try one or more of the following:

– Replace the blade or have it sharpened.

– Walk at a slower pace while mowing.

– Raise the cutting height on your mower.

– Cut the grass more frequently.

– Overlap cutting swaths instead of cutting a full swath with each pass.

– Set the cutting height on the front wheels one notch lower than the rear wheels. For example, set the front wheels at 2 inches (51 mm) and the rear wheels at 2-3/8 inches (60 mm).

Cutting Leaves

• After cutting the lawn, ensure that half of the lawn shows through the cut leaf cover. You may need to make more than one pass over the leaves.

• If there are more than 5 inches (13 cm) of leaves on the lawn, set the front cutting height one or two notches higher than the rear cutting height.

• Slow down your mowing speed if the mower does not cut the leaves finely enough.

Maintenance

Note: Determine the left and right sides of the machine from the normal operating position.

Instructions for Obtaining Warranty Service

If you think that your Toro Product contains a defect in materials or workmanship, or if a normal, able-bodied adult can no longer start your product’s engine in one or two pulls, follow this procedure:

1. Contact any Authorized Toro Service Dealer to arrange service at their dealership. To locate a dealer convenient to you, refer to the Yellow Pages of your telephone directory (look under “Lawn

Mowers”) or access our website at www.Toro.com. U.S. Customers may also call the number listed in item #3 to use our 24-hour Toro dealer locator system.

2. Bring the product and your proof of purchase (sales receipt) to the Service Dealer. The dealer will diagnose the problem and determine if it is to be covered under warranty.

3. If for any reason you are dissatisfied with the Service Dealer’s analysis or with the assistance provided, contact us at: Customer Care Department -Consumer, Toro Warranty Company, 8111
