While Operating
1. Sit on the seat when starting an d operating the ma-
chine.
2. Before starting the engine:
A. Apply the parking brake.
B. Make sure traction pedal is in neutral and the
PTO switch is OFF (disengaged).
3. After engine is started, release parking brake and
keep foot off traction pedal. Machine must not move. If
movement is evident, there may be a problem with trac-
tion pedal calibration or the piston (traction) pump that
needs to be corrected before using the machine.
4. Do not run engine in a confined area without ade-
quate ventilation. Exhaust fumes are hazardous and
could possibly be deadly.
5. Do not touch engine, muffler or exhaust pipe while
engine is running orsoon after itis stopped. These areas
could be hot enough to cause burns.
6. Before getting off the seat:
A. Ensure that traction pedal is in neutral.
B. Fully lower and disengage cutting deck. Wait for
blades to stop.
C. Apply the parking brake.
D. Stop engine and remove key from switch.
7. Toro recommends that anytime the machine is
parked (short or long term), the cutting deck should be
lowered to the ground. This relieves pressure from the
deck lift circuit and eliminates the risk of the cutting deck
unexpectedly lowering to the ground.
8. Do not park on slopes unless wheels are chocked or
blocked.
