Maintenance and Service

20.Before servicing or making adjustments to the ma- chine, stop engine, remove key from the ignition, and pull the spark plug wire off spark plug to prevent acci- dental starting of the engine.

21.Make sure all hydraulic line connectors are tight,and all hydraulic hoses and lines are in good condition be- fore applying pressure to the system.

22.Keep body and hands away from pin hole leaks or nozzles that eject hydraulic fluid under high pressure. Use paper or cardboard, not hands, to search for leaks. Hydraulic fluid escaping under pressure can have suffi- cient force to penetrate skin and do serious damage. If fluid is injected into the skin it must be surgically re- moved within a few hours by a doctor familiar with this form of injury or gangrene may result.

23.Before disconnecting or performing any work on the hydraulic system, all pressure in system must be re- lieved by stopping engine, engaging parking brake and lowering attachments to the ground.

24.To make sure entire machine is in good condition, keep all nuts, bolts and screws properly tightened.

25.If major repairs are ever needed or assistance is re- quired, contact an Authorized TORO Distributor.

26.To reduce potential fire hazard, keep the engine area free of excessive grease, grass, leaves and accu- mulation of dirt.

27.If the engine must be running to perform a mainte- nance adjustment, keep hands, feet, clothing, and any parts of the body away from the engine and any moving parts. Keep everyone away.

28.Do not overspeed engine by changing governor set- tings. Maximum engine speed is 3200 rpm. To assure safety and accuracy, have an Authorized Toro Distribu- tor check maximum engine speed with a tachometer.

29.Engine must be shut off before checking oil or ad- ding oil to the crankcase.

30.To be sure of optimum performance and safety, al- ways 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.

31.When changing attachments, tires, or performing other service, use correct blocks, hoists, and jacks. Make sure machine is parked on a solid level floor such as a concrete floor. Prior to raising the machine, remove any attachments that may interfere with the safe and proper raising of the machine. Always chock or block wheels. Used jack stands or solid wood blocks to sup- port the raised machine. If the machine is not properly supported by blocks or jack stands, the machine may move or fall, which may result in personal injury.
