Maintenance and storage Operation • Disengage drives, lower implement, set parking brake, stop engine and remove key or disconnect spark plug wire. Wait for all movement to stop before adjusting, cleaning or repairing. • Never run an engine in an enclosed area. • Only operate in good light, keeping away from holes and hidden hazards. • Clean grass and debris from cutting units, drives, mufflers, and engine to help prevent fires. Clean up oil or fuel spillage. • Be sure all drives are in neutral and parking brake is engaged before starting engine. Only start engine from the operator’s position. Use seat belts if provided. • Let engine cool before storing and do not store near flame. • Slow down and use extra care on hillsides. Be sure to travel in the recommended direction on hillsides. Turf conditions can affect the machine’s stability. Use caution while operating near drop–offs. • Shut off fuel while storing or transporting. Do not store fuel near flames or drain indoors. • Slow down and use caution when making turns and when changing directions on slopes. • Park machine on level ground. Never allow untrained personnel to service machine. • Never raise deck with the blades running. • Use jack stands to support components when required. • Never operate with the PTO shield, or other guards not securely in place. Be sure all interlocks are attached, adjusted properly, and functioning property. • Carefully release pressure from components with stored energy. • Disconnect battery or remove spark plug wire before making any repairs. Disconnect the negative terminal first and the positive last. Reconnect positive first and negative last. • Never operate with the discharge deflector raised, removed or altered, unless using a grass catcher. • Do not change the engine governor setting or overspeed the engine. • Use care when checking blades. Wrap the blade(s) or wear gloves, and use caution when servicing them. Only replace blades. Never straighten or weld them. • Stop on level ground, lower implements, disengage drives, engage parking brake (if provided), shut off engine before leaving the operator’s position for any reason including emptying the catchers or unclogging the chute. • Keep hands and feet away from moving parts. If possible, do not make adjustments with the engine running. • Charge batteries in an open well ventilated area, away from spark and flames. Unplug charger before connecting or disconnecting from battery. Wear protective clothing and use insulated tools. • Stop equipment and inspect blades after striking objects or if an abnormal vibration occurs. Make necessary repairs before resuming operations. • Keep hands and feet away from the cutting units. 4 • Keep all parts in good working condition and all hardware tightened. Replace all worn or damaged decals. Slope Operation Slopes and ramps are a major factor related to loss-of-control and tip-over accidents, which can result in severe injury or death. All slopes and ramps require extra caution. If you cannot back up the slope or if you feel uneasy on it, do not mow it. Toro Mower Safety The following list contains safety information specific to Toro products or other safety information that you must know that is not included in the ANSI standards. DO • If a steep slope must be ascended, back up the hill, and drive forward down the hill, keeping the machine in gear. This product is capable of amputating hands and feet and throwing objects. Always follow all safety instructions to avoid serious injury or death. • Remove obstacles such as rocks, tree limbs, etc. from the mowing area. Watch for holes, ruts or bumps, as uneven terrain could overturn the machine. Tall grass can hide obstacles. This product is designed for cutting and recycling grass or, when equipped with a grass bagger, for catching cut grass. Any use for purposes other than these could prove dangerous to user and bystanders. • Use slow speed so that you will not have to stop while on the slope. General Operation • Follow the manufacturer’s recommendations for wheel weights or counterweights to improve stability. • Allow only responsible adults who are familiar with the instructions to operate the machine. • Use extra care with grass catchers or other attachments. These can change the stability of the machine. • Be sure the area is clear of other people before mowing. Stop the machine if anyone enters the area. • Keep all movement on slopes slow and gradual. Do not make sudden changes in speed or direction. • Do not mow in reverse unless absolutely necessary. Always look down and behind before and while backing. • Avoid starting or stopping on a slope. If tires lose traction, disengage the blades and proceed slowly straight down the slope. • Be aware of the mower discharge direction and do not point it at anyone. Do not operate the mower without either the entire grass catcher or the guard in place. • When operating machine on slopes, banks or near drop offs, always have ROPS (roll over protection) installed. • Slow down before turning. Sharp turns on any terrain may cause loss of control. • When operating a machine with ROPS (roll over protection) always use seat belt. • Turn off blades when not mowing. • Be certain that the seat belt can be released quickly if the machine is driven or rolls into ponds or water. • Keep hands, feet, hair and loose clothing away from attachment discharge area, underside of mower and any moving parts while engine is running. • Check carefully for overhead clearances (i.e. branches, doorways, electrical wires) before driving under any objects and do not contact them. • Stop the engine before removing the grass catcher or unclogging the chute. DO NOT • Mow only in daylight or good artificial light. • Do not mow slopes exceeding 15 degrees. • Watch for traffic when operating near or crossing roadways. • Avoid turning on slopes. If you must turn, turn slowly and gradually downhill, if possible. • Do not touch equipment or attachment parts which may be hot from operation. Allow to cool before attempting to maintain, adjust or service. • Do not mow near drop-offs, ditches, or embankments. The machine could suddenly turn over if a wheel goes over the edge of a cliff or ditch, or if an edge caves in. • Before operating a machine with ROPS (roll over protection) be certain the seat belts are attached to prevent the seat from pivoting forward. • Do not mow on wet grass. Reduced traction could cause sliding. • Do not use a grass catcher on steep slopes. Heavy grass bags could cause loss of control or overturn the machine. • Use only Toro-approved attachments. Warranty may be voided if used with unapproved attachments. 5 Service • Never store the machine or fuel container inside where there is an open flame, such as near a water heater or furnace. • Keep nuts and bolts tight, especially the blade attachment bolts. Keep equipment in good condition. • Never tamper with safety devices. Check safety systems for proper operation before each use. • Use only genuine replacement parts to ensure that original standards are maintained. • Check brake operation frequently. Adjust and service as required. • Battery acid is poisonous and can cause burns. Avoid contact with skin, eyes and clothing. Protect your face, eyes and clothing when working with a battery. • Battery gases can explode. Keep cigarettes, sparks and flames away from battery. • Hydraulic fluid escaping under pressure can penetrate the skin and cause injury. Use cardboard or paper to find hydraulic leaks. Never use your hands. 6 Slope Chart 7 8 Safety and Instruction Decals Safety decals and instructions are easily visible to the operator and are located near any area of potential danger.

Instructions for activating the battery Gasoline and Oil Recommended Gasoline Warning Use UNLEADED Regular Gasoline suitable for automotive use (85 pump octane minimum). Leaded regular gasoline may be used if unleaded regular is not available. Gasoline is harmful or fatal if swallowed. Long-term exposure to vapors can cause serious injury and illness. Important 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. • Avoid prolonged breathing of vapors. • Keep face away from nozzle and gas tank or conditioner opening. • Keep gas away from eyes and skin. Danger Using Stabilizer/Conditioner In certain conditions, gasoline is extremely flammable and highly explosive. A fire or explosion from gasoline can burn you and others and can damage property. Use a fuel stabilizer/conditioner in the machine to provide the following benefits: • Keeps gasoline fresh during storage of 90 days or less. For longer storage it is recommended that the fuel tank be drained. • Fill the fuel tank outdoors, in an open area, when the engine is cold. Wipe up any gasoline that spills. • Never fill the fuel tank inside an enclosed trailer. • Do not fill the fuel tank completely full. Add gasoline to the fuel tank until the level is 1/4 to 1/2 in. (6 to 13 mm) below the bottom of the filler neck. This empty space in the tank allows gasoline to expand. • Never smoke when handling gasoline, and stay away from an open flame or where gasoline fumes may be ignited by a spark. • Store gasoline in an approved container and keep it out of the reach of children. Never buy more than a 30-day supply of gasoline. • Always place gasoline containers on the ground away from your vehicle before filling. • Do not fill gasoline containers inside a vehicle or on a truck or trailer bed because interior carpets or plastic truck bed liners may insulate the container and slow the loss of any static charge. • When practical, remove gas–powered equipment from the truck or trailer and refuel the equipment with its wheels on the ground. • If this is not possible, then refuel such equipment on a truck or trailer from a portable container, rather than from a gasoline dispenser nozzle. • If a gasoline dispenser nozzle must be used, keep the nozzle in contact with the rim of the fuel tank or container opening at all times until fueling is complete. • Do not operate without entire exhaust system in place and in proper working condition. • Cleans the engine while it runs • Eliminates gum-like varnish buildup in the fuel system, which causes hard starting Important Do not use fuel additives containing methanol or ethanol. Add the correct amount of gas stabilizer/conditioner to the gas. Note: A fuel stabilizer/conditioner is most effective when mixed with fresh gasoline. To minimize the chance of varnish deposits in the fuel system, use fuel stabilizer at all times. Filling the Fuel Tank 1. Shut the engine off and set the parking brake. 2. Clean around each fuel tank cap and remove the cap. Add unleaded regular gasoline to both fuel tanks, until the level is 1/4 to 1/2 inch (6 to 13 mm) below the bottom of the filler neck. This space in the tank allows gasoline to expand. Do not fill the fuel tanks completely full. 3. Install fuel tank caps securely. Wipe up any gasoline that may have spilled.

Let the engine idle for 60 seconds (Fig. 17). 4. Turn the ignition key to off (Fig. 17). 5. Pull wire off spark plug(s) to prevent possibility of someone accidentally starting the machine before transporting or storing machine. 7. After the engine starts, move the choke to Off (Fig. 15). If the engine stalls or hesitates, move the choke back to On for a few seconds. Then move the throttle lever to the desired setting. Repeat this as required. 6. Close fuel shut off valve, on front panel before transporting or storing machine. Important Make sure that the fuel shut off valve is closed before transporting or storing the machine, as fuel leakage may occur. Set the parking brake before transporting. Make sure to remove the key as the fuel pump may run and cause the battery to lose charge. 19 The Safety Interlock System Caution Caution Children or bystanders may be injured if they move or attempt to operate the tractor while it is unattended. If safety interlock switches are disconnected or damaged the machine could operate unexpectedly causing personal injury. Always remove the ignition key and set the parking brake when leaving the machine unattended, even if just for a few minutes. • Do not tamper with the interlock switches. • Check the operation of the interlock switches daily and replace any damaged switches before operating the machine. Operating the Power Take Off (PTO) Understanding the Safety Interlock System The power take off (PTO) switch engages and disengages power to the electric clutch. The safety interlock system is designed to prevent the engine from starting unless: Engaging the PTO • You are sitting on the seat. 1. While seated in the seat, release the pressure on the traction control levers and place in neutral. • The parking brake is engaged. • The power take off (PTO) is disengaged. 2. Place the throttle in the fast position. • The motion control levers are in the neutral locked position 3. Pull out on the power take off (PTO) switch to engage (Fig. 18). The safety interlock system also is designed to stop the engine when the traction controls are moved with the parking brake on engaged or if you rise from the seat when the PTO is on or engaged. 2 1 Testing the Safety Interlock System Test the safety interlock system before you use the machine each time. If the safety system does not operate as described below, have an Authorized Service Dealer repair the safety system immediately. m–4201 Figure 18 1. PTO—Off 1.

To stop, push the motion control levers to neutral. Driving Forward Stopping the Machine 1. Release the parking brake; refer to Releasing the Parking Brake, page 18. To stop the machine, move the traction control levers to neutral and separate to lock, disengage the power take off (PTO), and turn the ignition key to Off to stop the engine. Also set the parking brake when you leave the machine; refer to Setting the Parking Brake, page 18. Remember to remove the key from the ignition switch. 2. Move the levers to the center, unlocked position. 3. To go forward, slowly push the motion control levers forward (Fig. 19). Note: The engine will kill if the traction control levers are moved with the parking brake engaged. Caution To go straight, apply equal pressure to both motion control levers (Fig. 19). Children or bystanders may be injured if they move or attempt to operate the tractor while it is unattended. To turn, release pressure on the motion control lever toward the direction you want to turn (Fig. 19). The farther you move the traction control levers in either direction, the faster the machine will move in that direction. Always remove the ignition and set the parking brake when leaving the machine unattended, even if just for a few minutes. To stop, pull the motion control levers to neutral. Adjusting the Height-of-Cut The height-of-cut is adjusted from 1-1/2 to 4-1/2 in. (38 to 114 mm) in 1/4 in. (6 mm) increments by relocating the clevis pin in different hole locations. 21 1. Raise the height-of-cut lever to the transport position (also the 4-1/2 in. [114 mm] cutting height position) (Fig. 20). 2. To adjust, remove the hairpin cotter and clevis pin from the height-of-cut bracket (Fig. 20). 3. Select the hole in the height-of-cut bracket corresponding to the height-of-cut desired, and insert the clevis pin (Fig. 20). 1 4 4.

By-pass valve Operating with Side Discharge The mower has a hinged grass deflector that disperses clippings to the side and down toward the turf. 1 m–3655 Danger Figure 23 1. Adjustment lever Without the grass deflector, discharge cover, or complete grass catcher assembly mounted in place, you and others are exposed to blade contact and thrown debris. Contact with rotating mower blade(s) and thrown debris will cause injury or death. Pushing the Machine by Hand Important Always push the machine by hand. Never tow the machine because hydraulic damage may occur. • Never remove the grass deflector from the mower because the grass deflector routes material down toward the turf. If the grass deflector is ever damaged, replace it immediately. • Never put your hands or feet under the mower. • Never try to clear discharge area or mower blades unless you move the power take off (PTO) to Off and rotate the ignition key to Off. Also remove the key and pull the wire off the spark plug(s). Pushing the Machine 1. Disengage the power take off (PTO) and turn the ignition key to off. 2. Rotate the by-pass valves counterclockwise 1 turn to push. This allows hydraulic fluid to by-pass the pump, enabling the wheels to turn (Fig. 24). Important Do not rotate the by-pass valves more than 1 turn. This prevents the valves from coming out of the body and causing fluid to run out. Changing to Machine Operation Using a Rollover Protection System Turn the by-pass valves in to operate the machine (Fig. 24). Note: Do not over tighten the by–pass valves. Rollover protection systems (ROPS) are available for many riding machines. Contact an Authorized Service Dealer for information on obtaining ROPS for your machine. Note: The machine will not drive unless the by-pass valves are turned in. 23 Transporting the Machine Warning Use a heavy-duty trailer or truck to transport the machine. Ensure that the trailer or truck has all necessary lighting and marking as required by law. Please carefully read all of the safety instructions. Knowing this information could help you, your family, pets, or bystanders avoid injury. Loading a unit onto a trailer or truck increases the possibility of backward tip-over and could cause serious injury or death. • Use extreme caution when operating a unit on a ramp. • Use only a single, full width ramp; Do Not use individual ramps for each side of the unit. • If individual ramps must be used, use enough ramps to create an unbroken ramp surface wider than the unit. • Do not exceed a 15 degree angle between ramp and ground or between ramp and trailer or truck. • Avoid sudden acceleration while driving unit up a ramp to avoid tipping backward. • Avoid sudden deceleration while backing unit down a ramp to avoid tipping backward. To transport the machine: • Lock the brake and block the wheels. • Securely fasten the machine to the trailer or truck with straps, chains, cable, or ropes. • Secure a trailer to the towing vehicle with safety chains. Warning Driving on street or roadway without turn signals, lights, reflective markings, or a slow moving vehicle emblem is dangerous and can lead to accidents causing personal injury. Tips for Mowing Grass Do not drive machine on a public street or roadway. Fast Throttle Setting For best mowing and maximum air circulation, operate the engine at fast. Air is required to thoroughly cut grass clippings, so do not set the height-of-cut so low as to totally surround the mower by uncut grass. Always try to have one side of the mower free from uncut grass, which allows air to be drawn into the mower. Loading the Machine 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. 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. Cutting a Lawn for the First Time Cut grass slightly longer than normal to ensure that the cutting height of the mower does not scalp any uneven ground. However, the cutting height used in the past is generally the best one to use. When cutting grass longer than 6 inches (15 cm) tall, you may want to cut the lawn twice to ensure an acceptable quality of cut. The ramp should be long enough so that the angles between the ramp and the ground and the ramp and the trailer or truck do not exceed 15 degrees. A steeper angle may cause mower deck 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 that 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. Cut 1/3 of the Grass Blade It is best to cut only about 1/3 of the grass blade. Cutting more than that is not recommended unless grass is sparse, or it is late fall when grass grows more slowly. Mowing Direction Important Do not attempt to turn the unit while on the ramp; you may lose control and drive off of the side. Alternate mowing direction to keep the grass standing straight. This also helps disperse clippings which enhances decomposition and fertilization. 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. 24 Mow at Correct Intervals Normally, mow every four days. But remember, grass grows at different rates at different times. So to maintain the same cutting height, which is a good practice, mow more often in early spring. As the grass growth rate slows in mid summer, mow less frequently. If you cannot mow for an extended period, first mow at a high cutting height; then mow again two days later at a lower height setting. Cutting Speed To improve cut quality, use a slower ground speed. Avoid Cutting Too Low If the cutting width of the mower is wider than the mower you previously used, raise the cutting height to ensure that uneven turf is not cut too short. Long Grass If the grass is ever allowed to grow slightly longer than normal, or if it contains a high degree of moisture, raise the cutting height higher than usual and cut the grass at this setting. Then cut the grass again using the lower, normal setting. When Stopping If the machine’s forward motion must be stopped while mowing, a clump of grass clippings may drop onto your lawn. To avoid this, move onto a previously cut area with the blades engaged. Keep the Underside of the Mower Clean Clean clippings and dirt from the underside of the mower after each use. If grass and dirt build up inside the mower, cutting quality will eventually become unsatisfactory. Blade Maintenance Maintain a sharp blade throughout the cutting season because a sharp blade cuts cleanly without tearing or shredding the grass blades. Tearing and shredding turns grass brown at the edges, which slows growth and increases the chance of disease. Check the cutter blades daily for sharpness, and for any wear or damage. File down any nicks and sharpen the blades as necessary. If a blade is damaged or worn, replace it immediately with a genuine Toro replacement blade. 25 Maintenance Note: Determine the left and right sides of the machine from the normal operating position.

Remove the key from the ignition and disconnect the wire from the spark plug(s) before you do any maintenance. Set the wire aside so that it does not accidentally contact the spark plug. Servicing the Cutting Blades Maintain sharp blades throughout the cutting season because sharp blades cut cleanly without tearing or shredding the grass blades. Tearing and shredding turns grass brown at the edges, which slows growth and increases the chance of disease. 2 1 Check the cutter blades daily for sharpness, and for any wear or damage. File down any nicks and sharpen the blades as necessary. If a blade is damaged or worn, replace it immediately with a genuine Toro replacement blade. For convenient sharpening and replacement, you may want to keep extra blades on hand. 3 m–151 Figure 25 Danger 1. Cutting edge 2. Curved area A worn or damaged blade can break, and a piece of the blade could be thrown into the operator’s or bystander’s area, resulting in serious personal injury or death. 3. Wear/slot forming Checking for Bent Blades • Inspect the blade periodically for wear or damage. • Replace a worn or damaged blade. 1. Stop the engine, set the parking brake, remove the key, and disconnect the spark plug wire(s) from the spark plug(s). 2. Rotate the blades until the ends face forward and backward (Fig. 26). Measure from a level surface to the cutting edge of the blades (Fig. 27). Note this dimension. Before Inspecting or Servicing the Blades Park the machine on a level surface, disengage the blade control (PTO) and set the parking brake. Turn the ignition key to Off. Remove the key and disconnect the spark plug wire(s) from the spark plug(s). 3. Rotate the opposite ends of the blades forward. Measure from a level surface to the cutting edge of the blades at the same position as in step 2 above. The difference between the dimensions obtained in steps 2 and 3 must not exceed 1/8 in. (3 mm). If this dimension exceeds 1/8 in. (3 mm), the blade is bent and must be replaced; refer to Removing the Blades and Installing the Blades, page 29. Inspecting the Blades 1. Inspect the cutting edges (Fig. 25). If the edges are not sharp or have nicks, remove and sharpen the blades; refer to Sharpening the Blades, page 28. 2. Inspect the blades, especially the curved area (Fig. 25). If you notice any damage, wear, or a slot forming in this area (item 3 in Fig. 25), immediately install a new blade. 27 Front 1 2 3 4 M–4226 Figure 28 m–1078 1. Sail area of blade 2.

Blade bolt Sharpening the Blades Warning MEASURE FROM CUTTING EDGE TO A LEVEL SURFACE When sharpening blade, pieces of blade could be thrown and cause serious injury. m–2539 Figure 27 Wear proper eye protection when sharpening blade. Warning 1. Use a file to sharpen the cutting edge at both ends of the blade (Fig. 29). Maintain the original angle. The blade retains its balance if the same amount of material is removed from both cutting edges. A blade that is bent or damaged could break apart and could seriously injure or kill you or bystanders. • Always replace bent or damaged blade with a new blade. • Never file or create sharp notches in the edges or surfaces of blade. 1 m–1854 Figure 29 Removing the Blades 1. Sharpen at original angle The blades must be replaced if a solid object is hit, if the blade is out of balance, or is bent. To ensure optimum performance and continued safety conformance of the machine, use genuine Toro replacement blades. Replacement blades made by other manufacturers may result in non-conformance with safety standards. 2. Check the balance of the blade by putting it on a blade balancer (Fig. 30). If the blade stays in a horizontal position, the blade is balanced and can be used. If the blade is not balanced, file some metal off of the end of the sail area only (Fig. 28). Repeat this procedure until the blade is balanced. Hold the blade end using a rag or thickly-padded glove. Remove the blade bolt, spring disk, and blade from the spindle shaft (Fig. 28). 2 Warning 1 m–1855 Figure 30 Contact with sharp blade can cause serious injury. 1. Blade Wear gloves or wrap sharp edges of the blade with a rag. 28 2. Balancer Installing the Blades 3 1. Install the blade onto the spindle shaft (Fig. 28). 4 1 Important The curved part of the blade must be pointing upward toward the inside of the mower to ensure proper cutting. 2. Install the flat washer, lock washer, and blade bolt (Fig. 28). Torque the blade bolt to 85–110 ft–lb (115–150 N⋅m). 5 2 Servicing the Air Cleaner 1 m–4815 Figure 31 Primary Filter: Check and/or replace after every 200 operating hours or more often in dusty conditions. 1.

Dispose of these according to your state and local regulations. Several states have passed laws concerning the disposal of devices containing mercury. In all the remaining states it is advisable to follow similar procedures. The laws state that these sealed devices contain mercury and should not be placed in the garbage until the mercury is removed and reused, recycled, or otherwise managed to ensure that it does not become part of solid waste or waters. Management and disposal practices must be within relevant federal, state, or local laws. Mercury Tilt Switch The tilt switch on this unit is located under the seat. Tilt the seat up to gain access. The tilt switch on this unit contains mercury, a hazardous material. Mercury that is outside a sealed container vaporizes at room temperature. The vapors are harmful. Mercury can be absorbed through the skin. Do not attempt to open or repair this switch. Return the switch to your Toro dealer if it is faulty and is being replaced or if the unit containing the switch is no longer operating and is being scrapped. If the switch is damaged or broken open use extreme caution in handling. Call your local waste management authority or Toro Customer Service for instructions. A very small amount of mercury is contained in a hermetically sealed body. The steel switch is then potted in a hard epoxy in a plastic case. It is unlikely that the mercury will ever escape from the enclosure. These high performance and reliable inexpensive switches are recyclable. Caution The mercury contained in the tilt switch is poisonous and exposure to mercury can cause severe illness. Mercury is an important and beneficial compound but requires special care in handling and disposal. When used and managed properly, mercury is not a threat to people or the environment. This information is presented to users so that they are aware that these switches contain mercury and will apply sound disposal practices when these devices reach their normal end of life or are damaged. • Never attempt to open or repair the tilt switch. • Avoid contact with the mercury. 47 BK BK PTO CLUTCH GND GY DK.GN SHOWN WITH LEVER IN NEUTRAL POSITION LT.GN (NEUTRAL) SW5 LT.BU SHOWN WITH LEVER IN NEUTRAL POSITION LT.BU SW4 (NEUTRAL) SHOWN WITH PARK BRAKE DISENGAGED SW3 (BRAKE) SHOWN IN OFF POSITION DK.GN PK/BK GY SW2 (PTO) T BK P1–B BN K2 (START RELAY) P2–C SW6 (SEAT SW) SHOWN WITH OPERATOR IN SEAT SW7 (TILT SW) SWITCH OPENS WHEN TILTED PAST 60 DEGREES FROM VERTICAL TERMINAL VIEW FROM BACK OF SWITCH P1–A DELAY MODULE 100–6186 P1–C OR S I A B KEY SW Y X NO CONNECTION BIA AND X Y BIS KEY SWITCH PN 88–9830 GY T X Y F1 30A DK.GN BK W F2 25A VIO A DK.GN/W R R B K1 (KILL RELAY) OR/BK DK.BU HOUR METER OR Y OR OR 1 4 3 + – OFF ON START 2 5 SW1 (IGNITION) S Y I 5 2 4 3 48 1 DK.BU OR VIO W 1 4 3 2 W Y GREY ORANGE DARK GREEN/WHITEDK.GN ORANGE/BLACK GY OR DK.GN/W OR/BK OIL FUEL REG MAG OR/BK B ST – BATTERY STARTER + OIL SWITCH SOLINIOD FUEL AC AC IGNITION MODULES SPARK PLUG BLACK/RED DARK BLUE WHITE VIOLET TAN GND BK/R LIGHT GREEN LT.GN SPARK PLUG DK.BU LIGHT BLUE LT.BU R PINK/BLACK VIO GREEN GN PK/BK YELLOW DARK GREEN T BLUE BU RED R PINK PK BROWN BN WIRE COLOR CODES BLACK BK Wiring Diagram Cleaning and Storage A.
