Systems Indicator Monitor / Hour Meter
LCD
Located in the center of the tractor’s console, the
systems indicator monitor records, and displays on its
LCD, hours of tractor operation whenever the ignition
key is rotated out of the STOP position.
The Indicator Monitor will also remind the operator of
maintenance intervals for changing the engine oil. The
LCD will alternately flash the recorded hours, “CHG”
and “OIL” for five minutes, after every 50 hours of
recorded operation elapse. The maintenance interval
lasts for two hours (from 50-52, 100-102, 150-152,
etc.). The LCD will also flash as described above for
five minutes every time the tractor’s engine has been
started during this maintenance interval. Before the
interval expires, change the crankcase oil level as
instructed in the MAINTENANCE section of this manual.
Brake
If the Brake light illuminates when attempting to start
the tractor’s engine, depress the brake pedal.
PTO (Blade Engage)
If the PTO light illuminates when attempting to start the
tractor’s engine, move the PTO lever into the
disengaged (OFF) position.
Oil
It is normal for the Oil light to illuminate while the engine
is cranking during start-up, but if it illuminate’s during
operation, while the engine is running, stop the
tractor immediately and check the crankcase oil level
as instructed in the MAINTENANCE section of this manual.
Battery
It is normal for the Battery light to illuminate while the
engine is cranking during start-up, but if it illuminate’s
during operation, while the engine is running, the
battery is in need of a charge or the engine’s charging
system is not generating sufficient amperage. Refer to
the MAINTENANCE section of this manual for the proper
battery charging procedure or have the charging
system checked by an authorized Toro Service Dealer.
PTO (Blade Engage) Lever
The PTO (Blade Engage) lever is located on the left
side of the dash, next to the steering wheel. Move the
PTO (Blade Engage) lever forward to engage the
power to the cutting deck or other (separately available)
attachments; move the PTO (Blade Engage) lever
rearward to disengage the power to the attachments.
NOTE: The PTO (Blade Engage) lever must be in the
disengaged (OFF) position when starting the engine.
Cruise Control
Lever
The cruise control
lever is located on
the tractor dash
panel, below the steering wheel. Push the cruise
control lever downward while traveling forward at a
desired speed. While holding the lever down, release
pressure from the drive pedal.
This will engage the cruise control and allow the tractor
to remain at that speed without applying pressure to the
drive pedal. Depress the brake pedal or the drive pedal
to deactivate cruise control. Refer to page 18 for
detailed instructions regarding cruise control.
NOTE: Cruise control can NOT be engaged at the
tractor’s fastest ground speed. If the operator should
attempt to do so, the tractor will automatically
decelerate to the fastest optimal mowing ground speed.

brake, fully depress
the brake pedal and
push the parking brake lever down. Hold the lever down
