If lightning is seen or thunder is heard in the area, do not operate the machine; seek shelter. • Remove all debris or other objects that might be picked up and thrown by cutter blades. Keep all bystanders away from the operating area. • Keep all shields and safety devices in place. If a shield, safety device, or decal is defective or damaged, repair or replace it before operating machine. Also, tighten any loose nuts, bolts, and screws to insure machine is in safe operating condition. • Do not wear loose fitting clothing because it could get caught in moving parts. Always wear long pants and substantial, slip-resistant footwear. Wearing safety glasses, safety shoes, and a helmet is advisable and required by some local ordinances and insurance regulations. • Be sure interlock switches are adjusted correctly so the engine cannot be started unless the traction pedal is in released-neutral position-and PTO switch is in the disengage position. • Fill fuel tank before starting the engine. Avoid spilling any fuel. Since fuel is flammable, handle it carefully. – Use an approved fuel container. – Do not fill fuel tank when engine is hot or running. – Do not smoke while handling fuel. – Fill fuel tank outdoors and up to about 25 mm (1 inch) from the top of the tank, not the filler neck. – Wipe up any spilled fuel. While Operating • Sit on the seat when starting the engine and operating the machine. • Always make sure seat pivot retaining pin is installed. • Before starting the engine: – Engage parking brake. – Make sure traction pedal is in neutral and PTO is in disengage position. – 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 adjusted incorrectly. Shut engine off and adjust until machine does not move when traction pedal is released. • Do not run the engine in a confined area without adequate ventilation. Exhaust fumes are hazardous and could possibly be deadly. • Maximum seating capacity is one person. Therefore, never carry passengers. • Check carefully for overhead clearances before driving under any objects. • The grass deflector or complete blower assembly must always be installed on cutting unit. • Operator must be skilled and trained in how to drive on hillsides.

cause loss of control and vehicle to tip or roll, possibly

resulting in personal injury or death. • Traverse slopes carefully. Do not start or stop suddenly when traversing slopes or when traveling uphill or downhill. • If engine stalls or machine loses headway and cannot make it to the top of a slope, do not turn machine around. Always back slowly straight down the slope. • Using the machine demands the operator's complete attention. To prevent loss of control: – Operate only in daylight or when there is good artificial light. – Drive slowly. – Avoid sudden starts and stops. – Look behind machine before backing up. – Watch for holes or other hidden hazards. – Do not drive close to a sand trap, ditch, creek, or hazard. – Reduce speed when making sharp turns and when turning on a hillside. – The cutting deck must be lowered when going down slopes for steering control. • The grass deflector must always be installed and in lowest position on the cutting unit when blower assembly is removed. This product is designed to drive objects into the ground where they lose energy quickly in grassy areas. However, don't take an injury risk! When a person or pet appears unexpectedly in or near the mowing area, stop mowing. Careless operation, combined with terrain angles, ricochets, or improperly positioned guards, can lead to thrown object injuries. Do not resume mowing until area is cleared. • Never raise the cutting unit while the blades or other parts are rotating. • If 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 to prevent possibility of accidental starting. Check cutting unit, blower assembly and traction unit for damage and defective parts. Repair any damage before restarting the engine and operating the cutting unit. Assure cutting unit blades are in good condition and blade bolts are tightened to proper torque specifications (See Cutting Deck Operator's Manual). • If the cutting unit discharge area or blower assembly ever plugs, disengage PTO and shut engine off before removing the obstruction. • To stop machine, remove foot from the traction pedal. Gradually reversing the traction pedal can provide additional braking. • Do not touch engine, muffler, or it adjacent shroud while engine is running or soon after it has stopped. These areas could be hot enough to cause a burn. • Lower the cutting unit to the ground and remove key from switch whenever machine is left unattended. • Before getting of the seat: – Move traction pedal to neutral position and remove foot from pedal. – Set the parking brake and disengage the PTO. – Shut the engine off and remove key from ignition switch. Wait for all movement to stop before getting off the seat. Maintenance • Remove key from ignition switch to prevent accidental starting of the engine when servicing, adjusting, or storing the machine. • If major repairs are ever needed or assistance is desired, contact an Authorized Toro Distributor. • To reduce potential fire hazard, keep the engine free of excessive grease, grass, leaves, and accumulations of dirt. • Make sure machine is in safe operating condition by keeping nuts, bolts, and screws tight. Check all cutting unit blade mounting bolts frequently to assure they are tightened to proper torque specifications (See the Cutting Deck Operator's Manual). • Make sure all hydraulic line connectors are tight, and all hydraulic hoses and lines are in good condition before applying pressure to the system. • 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 sufficient force to penetrate skin and cause serious injury. If fluid is ejected 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. • 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. • If the engine must be running to perform maintenance or an adjustment, keep clear of PTO shaft, cutting unit blades, and other moving parts. • At the time of manufacture, the machine conformed to safety standards in effect for riding mowers. To ensure optimum performance and continued safety certification of the machine, use genuine TORO replacement parts and accessories. Replacement parts and accessories made by other manufacturers may result in non-conformance with the safety standards, and the warranty may be voided. 2

If used with another kit, proceed to step 3. 1. Using the dimensions shown in Figure 28, use a tape measure and mark the chute. Note: For convenience, some chutes may have a light scribe mark where the chute must be cut off. Figure 28 1. 61.2 cm (24.12 inches) 2. 70.5 cm (27.75 inches) 2. Draw lines around all sides of the chute and cut off with a saw. 3. Set the deck to the desired height-of-cut setting. 4. Slide the chute over the blower opening and onto the mounting studs (Figure 29). 15

Lower the hopper hood and align the chute with

the hood snout. Secure the chute in position with 4 locknuts (5/16 inch) and chute brackets. Position the wide end of brackets to the rear. Operation Operating Characteristics (When used with a 9 cu. ft. or 15 cu. ft. Hopper Kit) CAUTION When the grass collector is removed, never operate without the deflector in place. For best performance, regulate the traction pedal to keep the 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 the load on the blade 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 the Cutting Unit and Traction Unit Operator's Manual for operation of each. DANGER Never place hands or feet in the chute, blower, or cutting unit. 1. This grass collector is designed for use in wet or dry conditions. Do not collect extremely long grass as the hopper 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 the ground speed. 3. The bumper which protects the blower housing does not extend far enough to eliminate the chance of the bagger striking a stationary object. Stay far enough away from obstructions to avoid collisions. Trim with the left side of the cutting unit only. CAUTION Use care to avoid collision between the hopper and any stationary objects. Always trim with the left side of the cutting unit. 4. While operating, check frequently for excessive clippings left on the turf or uncut grass. If those conditions occur, the blower or cutting unit may be plugged. Stop the unit, disengage the PTO, set the brake, and stop the engine. Check for obstructions in the chute, blower or cutting unit. Clear any obstruction using a stick or similar tool. Check the blower belt tension. If it is slipping, readjust the tension. 5. Cut grass often, especially when it grows rapidly. If shorter turf is desired, cut the grass again. Overlap the swaths to produce an even cutting pattern. Important: When transporting the unit, tie down the grass collector hood or back it onto the truck or trailer to avoid wind throwing the hood open and damaging it. Removing the Blower 1. Stop the engine and disengage the idler. Secure the idler to the front castor arm bracket with the retaining hook. 2. Remove the belt cover and lift the belt off of the spindle pulley. Install the cover. 3. Remove the 2 knobs securing the blower to the mounting brackets and remove the blower, belt, and chute. 4. Reverse the procedure to install the blower assembly. Using the Grass Deflector At some time you may wish to operate the cutting deck without the blower. Since a new pivot should have already been installed on the grass deflector, you can quickly mount the deflector to the blower mounting brackets. 1. Remove the bumper from the deck. 2. Slide the slots at bottom of the deflector pivot bracket onto the bolts at side of the deck brackets (Figure 30). 16

Secure the deflector in place with the 2 knobs.

Maintenance • Check the blower gearbox impeller for tightness every 50 hours. Torque the impeller shaft bolt to 25 to 25.8 N-m (220 to 230 in-lb). • Clean grass clippings from the hood, chute, blower, and cutting unit after each use. Wash the underside of the cutting unit daily with hose. An excessive buildup of clippings will impair the collection system performance. • Check the belt tension and wear every 50 hours. To adjust the belt tension, loosen the idler mounting screws, engage the idler lever, and push the idler pulley firmly into the blower belt. Tighten the mounting screws. • The blower gear box should need little maintenance. Check for leakage every 50 hours.

Toro General Commercial Product Warranty

A Two-Year Limited Warranty Conditions and Products Covered The Toro Company and its affiliate, Toro Warranty Company, pursuant to an agreement between them, jointly warrant your Toro Commercial product (“Product”) to be free from defects in materials or workmanship for two years or 1500 operational hours*, whichever occurs first. This warranty is applicable to all products with the exception of Aerators (refer to separate warranty statements for these products). Where a warrantable condition exists, we will repair the Product at no cost to you including diagnostics, labor, parts, and transportation. This warranty begins on the date the Product is delivered to the original retail purchaser. * Product equipped with an hour meter. Instructions for Obtaining Warranty Service You are responsible for notifying the Commercial Products Distributor or Authorized Commercial Products Dealer from whom you purchased the Product as soon as you believe a warrantable condition exists. If you need help locating a Commercial Products Distributor or Authorized Dealer, or if you have questions regarding your warranty rights or responsibilities, you may contact us at: Toro Commercial Products Service Department Toro Warranty Company 8111 Lyndale Avenue South Bloomington, MN 55420-1196 952–888–8801 or 800–952–2740 E-mail: [email protected] Owner Responsibilities As the Product owner, you are responsible for required maintenance and adjustments stated in your Operator's Manual. Failure to perform required maintenance and adjustments can be grounds for disallowing a warranty claim. Items and Conditions Not Covered Not all product failures or malfunctions that occur during the warranty period are defects in materials or workmanship. This warranty does not cover the following: • Product failures which result from the use of non-Toro replacement parts, or from installation and use of add-on, or modified non-Toro branded accessories and products. A separate warranty may be provided by the manufacturer of these items. • Product failures which result from failure to perform recommended maintenance and/or adjustments. Failure to properly maintain your Toro product per the Recommended Maintenance listed in the Operator’s Manual can result in claims for warranty being denied. • Product failures which result from operating the Product in an abusive, negligent, or reckless manner. • Parts subject to consumption through use unless found to be defective. Examples of parts which are consumed, or used up, during normal Product operation include, but are not limited to, brake pads and linings, clutch linings, blades, reels, rollers and bearings (sealed or greasable), bed knives, spark plugs, castor wheels and bearings, tires, filters, belts, and certain sprayer components such as diaphragms, nozzles, and check valves, etc. • Failures caused by outside influence. Conditions considered to be outside influence include, but are not limited to, weather, storage practices, contamination, use of unapproved fuels, coolants, lubricants, additives, fertilizers, water, or chemicals, etc. • Failure or performance issues due to the use of fuels (e.g. gasoline, diesel, or biodiesel) that do not conform to their respective industry standards. • Normal noise, vibration, wear and tear, and deterioration. • Normal “wear and tear” includes, but is not limited to, damage to seats due to wear or abrasion, worn painted surfaces, scratched decals or windows, etc. Parts Parts scheduled for replacement as required maintenance are warranted for the period of time up to the scheduled replacement time for that part. Parts replaced under this warranty are covered for the duration of the original product warranty and become the property of Toro. Toro will make the final decision whether to repair any existing part or assembly or replace it. Toro may use remanufactured parts for warranty repairs. Deep Cycle and Lithium-Ion Battery Warranty: Deep cycle and Lithium-Ion batteries have a specified total number of kilowatt-hours they can deliver during their lifetime. Operating, recharging, and maintenance techniques can extend or reduce total battery life. As the batteries in this product are consumed, the amount of useful work between charging intervals will slowly decrease until the battery is completely worn out. Replacement of worn out batteries, due to normal consumption, is the responsibility of the product owner. Battery replacement may be required during the normal product warranty period at owner’s expense. Note: (Lithium-Ion battery only): A Lithium-Ion battery has a part only prorated warranty beginning year 3 through year 5 based on the time in service and kilowatt hours used. Refer to the Operator's Manual for additional information. Maintenance is at Owner’s Expense Engine tune-up, lubrication, cleaning and polishing, replacement of filters, coolant, and completing recommended maintenance are some of the normal services Toro products require that are at the owner’s expense. General Conditions Repair by an Authorized Toro Distributor or Dealer is your sole remedy under this warranty. Neither The Toro Company nor Toro Warranty Company is liable for indirect, incidental or consequential damages in connection with the use of the Toro Products covered by this warranty, including any cost or expense of providing substitute equipment or service during reasonable periods of malfunction or non-use pending completion of repairs under this warranty. Except for the Emissions warranty referenced below, if applicable, there is no other express warranty. All implied warranties of merchantability and fitness for use are limited to the duration of this express warranty. Some states do not allow exclusions of incidental or consequential damages, or limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts, so the above exclusions and limitations may not apply to you. This warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may also have other rights which vary from state to state. Note regarding engine warranty: The Emissions Control System on your Product may be covered by a separate warranty meeting requirements established by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and/or the California Air Resources Board (CARB). The hour limitations set forth above do not apply to the Emissions Control System Warranty. Refer to the Engine Emission Control Warranty Statement supplied with your product or contained in the engine manufacturer’s documentation for details Countries Other than the United States or Canada Customers who have purchased Toro products exported from the United States or Canada should contact their Toro Distributor (Dealer) to obtain guarantee policies for your country, province, or state. If for any reason you are dissatisfied with your Distributor's service or have difficulty obtaining guarantee information, contact the Toro importer. 374-0253 Rev C
