FORM NO. 3313-697 pr MODEL NO. 30561 — 90501 & UP \ INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS GRASS COLLEGTION SYSTEM GROUNDSMASTER® 200 x 52” SERIES / SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE OPERATING 1. Read and understand the contents of this Operator's Manual before starting and operating the machine. Become familiar with all controls and how to stop quickly. A replacement manual 1s available by sending complete Model and Serial Number to: The Toro Company 8111 Lyndale Avenue South Minneapolis, Minnestoa 55420 2. Never allow children or adults unfamiliar with it's operation to operate the machine, and keep everyone, especially children and pets, away from the area of operation. 3 Remove sticks, stones, wire and any other debris or objects that might be picked up and thrown by the cutter blades. 4. Keep all shields and safety devices in place. If a shield, safety device or decal is malfunctioning or damaged, repair or replace it before operation is commenced. Also, tighten any loose nuts, bolts and screws to make sure machine is in safe operating condition. 5. Do not operate machine while wearing sandals, tennis shoes, sneakers or shorts. Also, do not wear loose fitting clothing because it could get caught in moving parts. Always wear long pants and sub- stantial shoes. Wearing safety glasses, safety shoes and a helmet is advisable and required by some local ordinances and insurance regulations. 6. Be sure interlock switches are adjusted cor rectly so engine cannot be started unless traction pedal is released — neutral position — and PTO switch is in DISENGAGE position. 7. Fill fuel tank with fuel before starting the engine. Avoid spilling any fuel. Since fuel is highly flammable, handle it carefully — DO NOT SMOKE. A. Use an approved fuel container. B. Do notfilltank while engine is hot or running. C. Do not smoke while handling fuel. D. Fill fuel tank outdoors and up to about one inch (25 mm) from top of the tank, not the filler neck. KEEP HOOD CLOSED when filling. E. Wipe up any spilled fuel. Install fuel container cap and machine fuel tank cap securely before starting the engine. WHILE OPERATING 8. Do not run the engine in a confined area with- out adequate ventilation. Exhaust fumes are hazardous and could possibly be deadly. 9. Maximum seating capacity is one person. Never carry passengers. 10. Sit on the seat when starting the engine and operating the machine, 11. When starting the engine: A. Engage parking brake. B. Be sure traction pedal is in neutral and PTO Is in disengage position. C. After engine is started, release parking brake and keep foot off traction pedal. Machine must not move. If movement is evident, the neutral return mechanism is ad- justed incorrectly; therefore, shut engine off and adjust until machine does not move when traction pedal is released. 12. Using the machine demands attention, and to prevent loss of control: A. Mow only in daylight or when there is good artificial light. B. Watch for holes or other hidden hazards. C. Do not drive close to a sand trap, ditch, creek or other hazard. D. Reduce speed when making sharp turns and when turning on hillsides. ©The Toro Company — 1988 SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS E. Avoid sudden stops and starts. F. Before backing up, look to the rear to be sure no one Is behind the machine. G. Watch out for traffic when near or crossing roads. Always yield the right-of-way. 13. The grass deflector or complete blower assembly must always be installed on the cutting unit. If the cutting unit discharge area ever plugs, disengage PTO and shut engine off. Use a stick to remove the obstruction. 14. Never raise the cutting unit while the blades are rotating. 15. If the cutting blades strike a solid object or the machine vibrates abnormally, disengage PTO, move throttle to SLOW, set parking brake and shut engine off. Remove key from switch and disconnect high tension wires from spark plugs to prevent possibility of accidental starting. Check cutting unit and traction unit for damage and malfunctioning parts. Make all repairs before restarting the engine and operating the cutting unit. Make sure blades are in good condition and blade nuts are tight. 16. Cut grass slopes carefully. When going up- hill or downhill do not start or stop suddenly. 17. Do not touch engine, muffler or its adjacent shroud while engine is running or soon after it is stopped because these areas could be hot enough to cause a burn. 18. Lower the cutting unit or other attached implement to the ground and remove key from switch whenever machine is left unattended. 19. Before getting off the seat: A. Move traction pedal to neutral position and remove foot from pedal. B. Disengage the PTO and set the parking brake. C. Shut the engine off and remove key from ignition switch. Wait for all movement to stop before getting off the seat. MAINTENANCE 20. Remove key from ignition switch and disconnect high tension wire from spark plug to prevent acci- dental starting of the engine when servicing, adjust- Ing or storing the machine. 21 Perform only those maintenance instructions described in this manual. If major repairs are ever needed or assistance is desired, contact an Author- zed TORO Distributor. 22. To reduce potential fire hazard, keep the engine free of excessive grease, grass, leaves and accumu- lations of dirt. 23. Be sure machine is in safe operating condition by Keeping nuts, bolts and screws tight. Check the blade mounting bolts frequently to be sure they are tight. 24. Make sure all hydraulic line connectors are tight, and all hydraulic hoses and lines are in good condition before applying pressure to the system 25. Keep body and hands away from pin hole leaks or nozzles that eject hydraulic fluid under high pres- sure. Use paper or cardboard, not hands, to search for leaks. Hydraulic fluid escaping under pressure can have sufficient force to penetrate skin and do serious damage. If fluid is injected into the skin it must be surgically removed within a few hours by a doctor familiar with this form of injury or gangrene may result. 26. Before disconnecting or performing any work on the hydraulic system, all pressure in system must be relieved by stopping engine and lowering implement to the ground. 27. If the engine must be running to perform a maintenance adjustment, keep hands, feet, clothing and other parts of the body away from the cutting unit blades and other moving parts. 28. Do not overspeed the engine by changing governor settings. To ensure safety and accuracy, have an Authorized TORO Distributor check maxi- mum engine speed with a tachometer. 29. Engine must be shut off before checking oil or adding oil to the crankcase. 30. At the time of manufacture, the GROUNDS- MASTER grass collection system conformed to safety standards in effect for riding mowers. Therefore, to assure optimum performance and safety, always purchase genuine TORO replacement parts and accessories. Replacement parts and accessories made by other manufacturers could be dangerous. Such use could void the product warranty of The Toro Company. SAFETY AND INSTRUCTION DECALS The following decals are installed on the machine. If any become damaged or illegible, replace it.

For best performance, regulate traction pedal to keep engine rpm high and somewhat constant. A good rule to follow is: decrease ground speed as the load on the cutting blade increases; and increase ground speed as load on the blades decreases. This allows the engine, working with the transmission, to sense the proper ground speed while maintaining high blade tip speed necessary for good quality-of-cut, vacuuming action, and to throw grass into hopper. If blower speed drops too low plugging may result. Refer to Cutting Unit and Traction Unit Operator's Manual for operation of each. A CAUTION Use care to avoid collision between grass bag and any stationary objects. Always trim with left side of cutting unit. ae, i a a a A ie a a a a a 10 TE TEE TET TEE TE TEE EE EE CP CEP E E 1. This grass collector is designed for use in wet or dry conditions. Do not collect extremely long grass as the bag will fill too quickly. 2. When bagging wet, heavy grass, some clippings may not be thrown completely through the chute. The hole in the bottom of the chute allows these clippings to drop out without plugging the chute. When this happens, reduce ground speed. 3. The bumper which protects the blower housing doesn’t extend far enough to eliminate chance of lower tray or hood striking a stationary object. Stay far enough away from obstructions to avoid collision. Trim with left hand side of cutting unit only. 4. To improve productivity, Toro recommends purchasing an additional seven or ten bushel grass bags from your local Toro dealer. Store em pty bagsin tray of lower support tube assembly and drop off filled and sealed bags to be collected later. 9. The optional ten bushel grass bags should not be used under extremely wet grass conditions as they may be too heavy to remove easily. 6. Heavy duty lawn trash bags may be used with an optional retainer cord (Toro part no. 36-7770). High winds may cause bottom of empty bags to shift off lower tray. If this happens, mow until bag is slightly filled and recenter on tray. 7. The grass collector hood is designed to exhaust air beside the grass bag rather than through it. This allows the grass bag to fill completely without de- creasing performance. Grass will fall through the opening in the front of the hood when the grass bag is full. Immediately disengage the power take off, set brake, and shut off ignition. Change or empty grass bag. Failure to empty or change bag will plug the chute. After changing bag check that grass clippings have not fallen into chute. 8. Optional Hi-sail blades (Toro part no. 44-5480) will give improved performance in wet cutting conditions. 9. While operating, check frequently for excessive clippings left on turf or uncut grass. If those condi- tions occur, the blower or cutting unit may be plugged. Stop unit, disengage PTO, set brake, and shut off ignition. Check for obstructions in the chute, blower or cutting unit. Clear any obstructions using a stick or similar tool. Check that screen in hood is clear of obstructions. Check blower belt tension. If slipping, readjust. A DANGER Never place hands or feet in chute, blower, or cutting unit. 10. Cut grass often, especially when turf growth is rapid. If shorter turf is desired, cut the grass again. Overlap swaths to produce an even cutting pattern. IMPORTANT: When transporting unit, tie down grass collector hood or back unit onto truck or trailer to avoid wind throwing hood open and damaging it. 11. To remove blower assembly, shut off engine, disengage idler assembly, unlatch and open belt cover and lift belt off spindle pulley. Close cover. Remove (2) knobs and washers securing blower to mounting brackets and remove blower, belt, and chute. 12. Reverse procedure to reinstall blower assembly. MOUNT GRASS DEFLECTOR 1. Remove bumper from carrier frame. Reinstall two lift arm/carrier frame connection capscrews. Torque to 70-80 ft-Ib. 2. Position grass deflector mounts on outside of pivot brackets (included in kit) and secure parts together with capscrews, locknuts, and washers previously removed (Fig. 28). Both locknuts must face each other. Tighten locknuts until they are flush against deflector pivots. 3. Slide grass deflector and pivot brackets onto alignment bolts and secure to mounting brackets with knobs and washers. Lift deflector and allow it to drop to check spring tension. Note: If blower assembly or grass deflector do not easily slide on or off mounting brackets, loosen alignment bolts slightly. Figure 28 1. Grass deflector 2 Mounting brackets 3. Knob and washer 4. Alignment bolts MAINTENANCE 1. Keep unit clean, checking that engine cooling fins are free of dirt and chaff. Make sure all fasteners are tight. Check baffles and shields for wear and replace as needed. 2. Check gearbox impeller for tightness every 50 hours. Torque impeller shaft bolt to 220-230 in.-Ibs. 3. Clean grass clippings from hood, chute, blower, and cutting unit after each use. Wash underside of cutting unit daily with hose. An excessive buildup of clippings will impair bagging performance. V36-227 4. Check belt tension and wear every 50 hours. To adjust belt tension, loosen idler mounting screws, engage idler lever and push idler pulley firmly into blower belt. Tighten mounting screws. 5. The blower gear box should need little main- tenance. Check for leakage every 50 hours. If leakage should occur, replace seals and refill with two oz. of high quality moly di-sulfide grease. Repack bearings with same before assembling. 6.
