Safety This machine was designed and tested to offer safe service when operated and maintained properly. Although hazard control and accident prevention partially are dependent upon the design and configuration of the machine, these factors are also dependent upon the awareness, concern, and proper training of the personnel involved in the operation, transport, maintenance, and storage of the machine. Improper use or maintenance of the machine can result in injury or death. To reduce the potential for injury or death, comply with the following safety instructions. Before Operating • Operate the machine only after reading and understanding the contents of this manual. • Never allow children to operate the machine or adults to operate it without proper instructions. • Become familiar with the controls and know how to stop the engine quickly. • Keep all shields, safety devices, and decals in place. If a shield, safety device, or decal is malfunctioning, illegible, or damaged, repair or replace it before operating the machine. • Always wear substantial shoes. Do not operate machine while wearing sandals, tennis shoes, or sneakers. Do not wear loose fitting clothing which could get caught in moving parts and cause personal injury. • Wearing safety glasses, safety shoes, long pants, and a hard hat is advisable and required by some local safety and insurance regulations. • Ensure that the traction interlock switch is adjusted correctly so that the engine cannot be started unless the traction pedal is released and in the neutral position. • Keep everyone, especially children and pets, away from the areas of operation. • Since gasoline is highly flammable, handle it carefully. – Use an approved gasoline container. – Do not remove the cap from the fuel tank when engine is hot or running. – Do not smoke while handling gasoline. – Fill the fuel tank outdoors and to about 1 in. (25 mm) below top of tank (bottom of the filler neck). Do not overfill. – Wipe up any spilled gasoline. • Check the safety interlock system daily for proper operation. If the switch should malfunction, replace the switch before operating machine. After every two years, replace the interlock switch in the safety system, whether it is working properly or not. While Operating • Exhaust fumes are hazardous and could be deadly, so do not run the engine in a confined area without adequate ventilation. • Sit on seat when operating the machine. Never carry passengers.

When starting the engine:

– Make sure that the traction pedal is released. – After the engine is started, keep your foot off of the traction pedal. The machine must not move. If movement is evident, the neutral return bracket is adjusted incorrectly; therefore, shut the engine off and adjust the bracket so that the machine does not move when in the neutral position. If the engine does not start, check the interlock switch for proper adjustment. • Using the machine demands attention. To prevent tipping or loss of control: – Use care when entering and leaving sand traps. Use extreme caution around ditches, creeks, or other hazards. – Watch for holes or other hidden hazards. – Use caution when operating the machine on a steep slope. Reduce your speed when making sharp turns or when turning on hillsides. – Avoid sudden stops and starts. Do not go from reverse to full forward without first coming to a complete stop. – Before backing up, look to the rear and ensure that no one is behind the machine. – Watch out for traffic when near of crossing roads. Always yield the right of way. • If the optional Draw Bar, Part No. 92-2330, is installed on the machine, the vertical load on the hitch should not exceed 200 lb. (91 kg). • Do not touch the engine, muffler, or exhaust pipe while the engine is running or soon after it has stopped because these areas are hot enough to cause burns. • If the machine ever vibrates abnormally, stop immediately, turn the engine off, wait for all motion to stop, and inspect for damage. Repair all damage before commencing operation. • Before getting off of the seat: – Engage the parking brake and lower the attachment. Take precautions to prevent accidental starts, rolling away, etc. – Shut the engine off and wait for all movement to stop. • Whenever the machine is left unattended, be sure that the engine is stopped, the parking brake is engaged, the implement is lowered, and the key is removed from the ignition. Maintenance • Before servicing or making adjustments to the machine, stop the engine and pull the spark plug wire off of the spark plug to prevent accidental starting of the engine. • Make sure that all hydraulic line connectors are tight, and all hydraulic hoses and lines are in good condition before applying pressure to the system. • Keep your body and hands away from pin hole leaks or nozzles that eject hydraulic fluid under high pressure. Use paper or cardboard, not your hands, to search for leaks. Hydraulic fluid escaping under pressure can have sufficient force to penetrate skin and do serious damage. If fluid is injected 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 the system must be relieved by stopping the engine, engaging the parking brake, and lowering the attachments to the ground. • To make sure that the entire machine is in good condition, keep all nuts, bolts, and screws properly tightened. • If major repairs are ever needed or assistance is required, contact an Authorized Toro Distributor. • To reduce potential fire hazard, keep the engine area free of excessive grease, grass, leaves, and accumulation of dirt. • If the engine must be running to perform a maintenance adjustment, keep hands, feet, clothing, and any parts of the body away from the engine and any moving parts. Keep everyone away. • Do not overspeed engine by changing governor settings. Maximum engine speed is 3200 RPM. To ensure safety and accuracy, have an Authorized Toro Distributor check the maximum engine speed with a tachometer. • The engine must be shut off before checking the oil or adding oil to the crankcase. • To be sure of optimum performance and safety, always 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.

Activating and Charging the

Battery Battery posts, terminals, and related accessories contain lead and lead compounds, chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer and reproductive harm. Wash hands after handling. Warning If the battery is not filled with electrolyte or activated, bulk electrolyte with 1.260 specific gravity must be purchased from a local battery supply outlet and added to the battery. Danger Battery electrolyte contains sulfuric acid which is a deadly poison and causes severe burns. • Do not drink electrolyte and avoid contact with skin, eyes or clothing. Wear safety glasses to shield your eyes and rubber gloves to protect your hands. • Fill the battery where clean water is always available for flushing the skin. 1. Remove the filler caps from the battery and slowly fill each cell until electrolyte is up to the fill line. 2. Replace the filler caps and connect a 3 to 4 amp. battery charger to the battery posts. Charge the battery at a rate of 3 to 4 amperes for 4 to 8 hours. Charging the battery produces gasses that can explode. Never smoke near the battery and keep sparks and flames away from battery. Warning 3. When the battery is charged, disconnect the charger from the electrical outlet and battery posts. Allow the battery to sit for 5–10 minutes. 4. Remove the filler caps. Slowly add electrolyte to each cell until the level is up to the fill line. Install the filler caps. Important Do not overfill the battery. Electrolyte will overflow onto other parts of the machine and severe corrosion and deterioration will result. Installing the Battery 1. Set the battery in place, with the terminals to the outside (Fig. 3). 2. Secure the positive cable (red) to the positive (+) terminal with a 1/4–20 x 5/8 in. capscrew and locknut. Incorrect battery cable routing could damage the machine and cables causing sparks. Sparks can cause the battery gasses to explode, resulting in personal injury. • Always disconnect the negative (black) battery cable before disconnecting the positive (red) cable. • Always connect the positive (red) battery cable before connecting the negative (black) cable. Warning Battery terminals or metal tools could short against metal machine components causing sparks. Sparks can cause the battery gasses to explode, resulting in personal injury. • When removing or installing the battery, do not allow the battery terminals to touch any metal parts of the machine. • Do not allow metal tools to short between the battery terminals and metal parts of the machine. Warning 3. Secure the two small black wires and the negative cable (black) to the negative (–) terminal of the battery with a 1/4–20 x 5/8 in. capscrew and locknut (Fig. 3). 4. Coat the terminals and mounting fasteners with petroleum jelly to prevent corrosion. Slide the rubber boot over the positive (+) terminal to prevent a possible short from occurring. 5. Install the top battery hold down to side battery hold downs and secure with washers and wing nuts. 6. Release seat prop and lower seat. Installing the Decals Affix an Infield Pro® decal over each Sand Pro decal, if desired.

If you leave the key in the ignition switch, someone

could accidently start the engine and seriously injure you or other bystanders. Remove the key from the ignition and disconnect the wire from the spark plug before you do any maintenance. Set the wire aside so that it does not accidentally contact the spark plug. Caution Checking the Crankcase Oil The engine is shipped with 1-3/4 US quarts (1.66 l) (w/ filter) of oil in the crankcase; however, the oil level must be checked before and after the engine is first started. The engine uses any high-quality detergent oil having the American Petroleum Institute (API) “service classification” SJ. The recommended viscosity (weight) is SAE 30. 1. Position the machine on a level surface. 2. Remove the engine cover. 3. Pull out the dipstick (Fig. 4) and wipe it with a clean rag. Insert the dipstick into the tube and make sure that it is seated fully. Remove the dipstick from the tube and check the oil level. If the oil level is low, remove the filler cap from the valve cover (next to the dipstick) and add enough oil to raise the level to the FULL mark on the dipstick. 1 Figure 4 1. Dipstick 4. Install the dipstick firmly in place. Important The dipstick must be fully seated in the tube to provide proper sealing of the engine crankcase. Failure to seal the crankcase may result in engine damage. 5. Install the engine cover. Important Check the oil level every 8 operating hours or daily. Initially, change the oil after the first 8 hours of operation; thereafter, under normal conditions, change the oil every 25 hours and the filter every 100 hours. However, change the oil more frequently when the engine is operated in extremely dusty or dirty conditions. Filling the Fuel Tank Use UNLEADED Regular Gasoline suitable for automotive use (87 pump octane minimum). Leaded regular gasoline may be used if unleaded regular is not available. 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. Danger 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. • Fill the fuel tank outdoors, in an open area, when the engine is cold. Wipe up any gasoline that spills. • Do not fill the fuel tank completely full. Add gasoline to the fuel tank until the level is 1 in. (25 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.

Gasoline is harmful or fatal if swallowed.

Long-term exposure to vapors can cause serious injury and illness. • Avoid prolonged breathing of vapors. • Keep face away from nozzle and gas tank or conditioner opening. • Keep gas away from eyes and skin. Warning Fuel tank capacity is approximately 5-1/2 gallons (25 l). 1. Clean the area around the fuel tank cap (Fig. 5). 2. Remove the fuel tank cap. 3. Fill the tank to about 1 in. (25 mm) below the top of the tank (bottom of the filler neck). Do not overfill. Install the cap. 4. Wipe up any fuel that may have spilled to prevent a fire hazard. 1 Figure 5 1. Fuel tank cap Checking the Hydraulic System The machine’s reservoir is filled at the factory with approximately 3 gallons (11.4 l) of high quality hydraulic fluid. Check the level of hydraulic fluid before the engine is first started and daily thereafter. Appropriate hydraulic oils are listed below. The following list is not assumed to be all-inclusive. Hydraulic fluids produced by other manufacturers may be used if they can cross reference to find an equivalent to the products listed. Toro will not assume responsibility for damage caused by improper substitutions, so use only products from reputable manufacturers who will stand behind their recommendation. Multigrade Hydraulic Fluid—ISO VG 46 Normal Climate: 0�F (–18�C) to 110�F (43�C) Mobil DTE 15M Amoco Rykon Premium ISO 46 Chevron Rykon Premium Oil ISO 46 Conoco Hydroclear AW MV 46 Exxon Univis N46 Pennzoil AWX MV46 Shell Tellus T 46 Texaco Rando HDZ 46 Important The ISO VG 46 Multigrade fluid has been found to offer optimal performance in a wide range of temperature conditions. For operation in consistently high ambient temperatures, 65°F (18°C) to 120°F (49°C), ISO VG 68 hydraulic fluid may offer improved performance. Note: Many hydraulic fluids are almost colorless, making it difficult to spot leaks. A red dye additive for the hydraulic system oil is available in 2/3 oz. (20 ml) bottles. One bottle is sufficient to 4–6 gal (15–23 l) of hydraulic oil. Order Part No. 44-2500 from your Authorized Toro Distributor. 1. Remove the cap from the hydraulic oil reservoir (Fig. 6). 1 Figure 6 1. Oil reservoir cap 2. Check the oil level in the reservoir. The oil level should be up to the top of the cone point on the tank screen. 3. If the fluid level is low, slowly fill the reservoir with the appropriate hydraulic fluid until the level reaches the bottom of the screen. Do not overfill. 4. Install the reservoir cap. Important To prevent system contamination, clean the top of the hydraulic oil containers before puncturing. Ensure that the pour spout and funnel are clean.

Checking the Tire Pressure

Check the tire pressure before operating the machine. The correct air pressure in the front and rear tires is 4–6 psi (28–41 kPa). 1 Figure 7 1. Air valve Operation Note: Determine the left and right sides of the machine from the normal operating position. Using the Controls Traction and Stopping Pedal The traction pedal (Fig. 8) has 3 functions: to make the machine move forward, to move it backward, and to stop the machine. Using the heel and toe of the right foot, depress the top of the pedal to move forward and the bottom of pedal to move backward or to assist in stopping when moving forward (Fig. 9). Also, allow the pedal to move or move it to the neutral position to stop the machine. For operator comfort, do not the rest heel of the foot on reverse when operating forward (Fig. 10). 1 Figure 8 1. Traction and stopping pedal Figure 9 Ground speed is proportionate to how the far traction pedal is depressed. For maximum ground speed, the pedal must be fully depressed while the throttle is in the Fast position. To get maximum power or when ascending a hill, have the throttle in the Fast position while depressing the pedal slightly to keep the engine RPM high. When the engine RPM begins to decrease, release the pedal slightly to allow the RPM to increase.

Important For maximum pulling power, the throttle

should be in the Fast position and the traction pedal just barely depressed. Use the maximum ground speed only when driving from one area to another. Maximum speed is not recommended when using an attached or towed implement. Caution Important Do not operate in reverse with the implement in the down (operating) position, or the implement could be severely damaged. Ignition Switch The ignition switch (Fig. 10), used to start and stop the engine, has three positions: Off, Run, and Start. Rotate the key clockwise to the Start position to engage the starter motor. Release the key when the engine starts. The key will move automatically to the On position. To shut the engine off, rotate the key counterclockwise to the Off position. 6 3 2 4 1 5 Figure 10 1. Ignition switch 2. Throttle control 3. Choke control 4. Lift lever 5. Parking brake 6. Hour meter Choke Control To start a cold engine, close carburetor choke by moving choke control (Fig. 10) forward to the “CLOSED” position. After engine starts, regulate choke to keep engine running smoothly. As soon as possible, open the choke by pulling upward to the “OPEN” position. A warm engine requires little or no choking. Throttle Control The throttle control lever (Fig. 10) connects to and operates the throttle linkage to the carburetor. The control has 2 positions: Slow and Fast. The engine speed can be varied between the 2 settings. Note: The engine cannot be stopped by the throttle control. Lift Lever To raise the implement, pull the lift lever (Fig. 10) back; to lower the implement, push the lever forward. For the float position, move the lever into the detent position. When the desired position is attained, release the lever and it will return to neutral. Note: The machine has a double-acting lift cylinder. Down pressure can be applied to the implement for certain operating conditions. Parking Brake To engage the parking brake (Fig. 10), pull back on the lever. To disengage it, push the lever forward. Hour Meter The hour meter, located under seat, (Fig. 10) indicates the total hours of machine operation. The hour meter starts to function whenever the key switch is rotated to the On position. Steering Wheel Tilt Lever Steering wheel tilt lever, (Fig. 11) on left side of steering column, allows steering wheel to be adjusted for operator comfort.

Seat Adjustment Move the lever on the left side of the seat forward, slide the seat to the desired position, and release the lever to lock the seat into position. 1 Figure 12 1. Seat adjusting lever Fuel Shutoff Valve Close the fuel shutoff valve (Fig. 13) when storing the machine. 1 Figure 13 1. Fuel shutoff valve Starting and Stopping the Engine 1. Remove your foot from the traction pedal, make sure that the pedal is in the neutral position, and engage the parking brake. 2. Push the choke lever forward to the On position (when starting a cold engine) and the throttle lever to the Slow position. 3. Insert the key into the ignition switch and rotate it clockwise to start the engine. Release the key when the engine starts. Regulate the choke to keep the engine running smoothly. Important To prevent overheating of the starter motor, do not engage the starter longer than 10 seconds. After 10 seconds of continuous cranking, wait 60 seconds before engaging the starter motor again. 4. When the engine is started for the first time, or after an overhaul of the engine, operate the machine in forward and reverse for 1 to 2 minutes. Also operate the lift lever to be sure of proper operation of all parts. 5. To stop the engine, move the throttle control to the Slow position and rotate the ignition key to Off. Remove the key from the switch to prevent accidental starting. 6. Close the fuel shutoff valve before storing the machine. Shut the engine off and wait for all moving parts to stop before checking for oil leaks, loose parts, and other malfunctions. Caution

Checking the Interlock System

Operation If safety interlock switches are disconnected or damaged the machine could operate unexpectedly causing personal injury. • Do not tamper with the interlock switches. • Check the operation of the interlock switches daily and replace any damaged switches before operating the machine. • Replace switches every two years regardless of whether they are operating properly or not. Caution The purpose of the interlock system is to prevent the engine from cranking or starting unless the traction pedal is in the neutral position. 1. Check the interlock operation in a wide open area free of debris and bystanders. Stop the engine. 2. Sit on the seat. Depress the traction pedal in forward and reverse while trying to start the engine. If the engine cranks, there may be a malfunction in the interlock system. Repair it immediately. If the engine does not crank, the system is operating correctly. Towing the Machine In case of emergency, the machine can be towed for a short distance. However, we do not recommend this as a standard procedure. Important Do not tow the machine faster than 2–3 MPH (3–5 km/h) because the drive system may be damaged. If the machine must be moved a considerable distance, transport it on a truck or trailer. The tires may lock up if the machine is towed too fast. If this occurs, stop towing the machine and wait for the traction circuit pressure to stabilize before resuming towing at a slower speed. Break-In Period Only 8 hours of operating time is required for the break-in period. Since the first hours of operation are critical to future dependability of the machine, monitor its functions and performance closely so that minor difficulties, which could lead to major problems, are noted and can be corrected. Inspect the machine frequently during break-in for signs of oil leakage, loose fasteners, or any other malfunction. Operating Characteristics Practice driving the machine because its operating characteristics are different than some utility vehicles. Two points to consider when operating the vehicle are transmission and engine speed. To maintain somewhat constant engine RPM, depress the traction pedal slowly. This allows the engine to keep up with the ground speed of the vehicle. By contrast, pushing down quickly on the traction pedal will reduce engine RPM and, as a result, there will not be enough torque-power to move the vehicle. Therefore, to transfer maximum power to the wheels, move the throttle to Fast and slightly depress the traction pedal. By comparison, maximum ground speed with no load results when the throttle is in the Fast position and the traction pedal is slowly but fully depressed. In summary, always keep the engine RPM high enough to deliver maximum torque-power to the wheels. Operating the machine demands attention to prevent tipping or loss of control. • Use care when entering and leaving sand traps. • Use extreme caution around ditches, creeks, or other hazards. • Use caution when operating the machine on a steep slope. • Reduce your speed when making sharp turns or when turning on hillsides. • Avoid sudden stops and starts. • Do not go from reverse to full forward without first coming to a complete stop. Caution Inspecting and Cleaning the Machine At the completion of operation, thoroughly wash the machine with a garden hose—without a nozzle—so that excessive water pressure will not cause contamination and damage to the seals and bearings. Make sure that the cooling fins and area around the engine cooling air intake are kept free of debris. After cleaning, inspect the machine for possible hydraulic fluid leaks, damage, or wear to hydraulic and mechanical components.

Note: Determine the left and right sides of the machine from the normal operating position.

Be sure that the cover is sealing around the air cleaner body. Servicing the Remote Air Cleaner 1. Release the latches securing the air cleaner cover to the air cleaner body (Fig. 19). Separate the cover from the body. Clean the inside of the air cleaner cover. ÎÎ ÎÎ 1 2 3 Figure 19 1. Air cleaner latches 2. Dust cap 3. Filter 2. Washing Method A. Prepare a solution of filter cleaner and water and soak the filter element about 15 minutes. Refer to the directions on the filter cleaner carton for complete information. B. After soaking the filter for 15 minutes, rinse it with clear water. Maximum water pressure must not exceed 40 psi (276 kPa) to prevent damage to the filter element. Rinse the filter from the clean side to the dirty side. C. Dry the filter element using warm, flowing air (160°F [71°C] max), or allow the element to air-dry. Do not use a light bulb to dry the filter element because damage could result.

3. Compressed Air Method

A. Blow compressed air from the inside to the outside of a dry filter element. Do not exceed 100 psi (689 kPa) to prevent damage to the element. B. Keep the air hose nozzle at least 2 in. (5 cm) from the filter and move the nozzle up and down while rotating the filter element. Inspect the filter for holes and tears by looking through the filter toward a bright light. 4. Inspect the new filter for shipping damage. Check the sealing end of the filter. Do not install a damaged filter. 5. Insert the new filter properly into the air cleaner body. Make sure that the filter is sealed properly by applying pressure to the outer rim of the filter when installing it. Do not press on the flexible center of the filter. 6. Install the cover and secure the latches. Make sure that the cover is positioned with the TOP side up. Adjusting the Throttle Control Proper throttle operation is dependent upon proper adjustment of the throttle control. Before adjusting the carburetor, ensure that the throttle control is operating properly. 1. Pivot the seat upward and remove the engine shield. 2. Loosen the cable clamp screw securing the cable to the engine (Fig. 20). 3. Move the remote throttle control lever forward to the Fast position. 1 2 3 4 5 6 Figure 20 1.

Replacing the Spark Plugs Replace the spark plugs after every 800 operating hours or yearly, whichever occurs first. Type: Champion RC12YC (or equivalent) Air Gap: 0.030 in. (0.76 mm) Note: The spark plug usually lasts a long time; however, the plug should be removed and checked whenever the engine malfunctions. 1. Clean the area around the spark plugs so that foreign matter cannot fall into the cylinder when the spark plug is removed. 2. Pull the spark plug wires off of the spark plugs and remove the plugs from the cylinder head. 3. Check the condition of the side electrode, center electrode, and center electrode insulator to ensure that there is no damage. Important A cracked, fouled, dirty, or otherwise malfunctioning spark plug must be replaced. Do not sand-blast, scrape, or clean the electrodes by using a wire brush because grit may eventually release from the plug and fall into the cylinder. The result is usually a damaged engine. 4. Set the air gap between the center and side of the electrodes at 0.030 in. (0.76 mm) (Fig. 21). Install the correctly gapped spark plug with gasket seal, and tighten the plug to 200 in.-lb. (23 N⋅m). If a torque wrench is not used, tighten the plug firmly.

Cleaning the Cylinder Head

Fins To avoid overheating and possible engine damage, the cooling fins on the cylinder head must be kept clean. Changing the Hydraulic System Oil and Filter The hydraulic system filter must be changed initially, after the first 8 hours of operation, and thereafter every 400 hours of operation or yearly, whichever occurs first. Use a genuine Toro oil filter for replacement. The hydraulic oil must be changed every 400 hours of operation or yearly, whichever occurs first. 1. Park the machine on a level surface and turn the engine off. 2. Remove screws securing side panels from right and left sides of machine and remove panels. Note: Place a funnel or trough under drain plug (Fig. 22), to direct oil into drain pan and prevent hydraulic oil from running onto machine components. 1 Figure 22 1. Hydraulic reservoir drain plug 3. Remove drain plug from reservoir and let hydraulic oil flow into drain pan. Reinstall and tighten plug when hydraulic oil stops draining. 4.

Leave the cables disconnected if it is stored on the machine. Store the battery in a cool atmosphere to avoid quick deterioration of the charge in the battery. To prevent the battery from freezing, make sure that it is fully charged. The specific gravity of a fully charged battery is 1.250. Caring for the Battery The battery electrolyte level must be properly maintained and the top of the battery kept clean. lf the machine is stored in a location where temperatures are extremely high, the battery will run down more rapidly than if the machine is stored in a location where temperatures are cool. Danger Battery electrolyte contains sulfuric acid which is a deadly poison and causes severe burns. • Do not drink electrolyte and avoid contact with skin, eyes or clothing. Wear safety glasses to shield your eyes and rubber gloves to protect your hands. • Fill the battery where clean water is always available for flushing the skin. Keep the top of the battery clean by washing it periodically with a brush dipped in ammonia or bicarbonate of soda solution. Flush the top surface with water after cleaning. Do not remove the fill cap while cleaning. The battery cables must be tight on the terminals to provide good electrical contact. Incorrect battery cable routing could damage the machine and cables causing sparks. Sparks can cause the battery gasses to explode, resulting in personal injury. • Always disconnect the negative (black) battery cable before disconnecting the positive (red) cable. • Always connect the positive (red) battery cable before connecting the negative (black) cable. Warning If corrosion occurs at the battery terminals, disconnect the cables, negative (–) cable first, and scrape the clamps and terminals separately. Reconnect the cables, positive (+) cable first, and coat the terminals with petroleum jelly. Check the electrolyte level every 25 operating hours or, if the machine is in storage, every 30 days. Maintain the cell level with distilled or demineralized water. Do not fill the cells above the fill line.

If any such part fails during the period of warranty coverage, it must be repaired or replaced by The Toro® Company. Any such part repaired or replaced under the warranty must be warranted for a time not less than the remaining warranty period. B. Any warranted part that is scheduled only for regular inspection in the written instructions must be warranted for the warranty period of two years. A statement in such written instructions to the effect of ”repair or replace as necessary” will not reduce the period of warranty coverage. Any such part repaired or replaced under warranty must be warranted for a time not less than the remaining warranty period. C. Any warranted part that is scheduled for replacement as required maintenance in the written instructions must be warranted for the period of time prior to the first scheduled replacement point for that part. If the part fails prior to the first scheduled replacement, the part must be repaired or replaced by The Toro® Company. Any such part repaired or replaced under warranty must be warranted for a time not less than the remainder of the period prior to the first scheduled replacement point for the part. D. Repair or replacement of any warranted part under the warranty provisions of this article must be performed at no charge to the owner at an Authorized Service Dealer. E. Notwithstanding the provisions of subsection (D) above, warranty services or repairs must be provided at an Authorized Service Dealer. F. The owner must not be charged for diagnostic labor that leads to the determination that a warranted part is in fact defective, provided that such diagnostic work is performed at an Authorized Service Dealer. G. Throughout the evaporative emission control system’s two year warranty period, The Toro® Company must maintain a supply of warranted parts sufficient to meet the expected demand for such parts. H. Manufacturer approved replacement parts must be used in the performance of any warranty maintenance or repairs and must be provided without charge to the owner. Such use will not reduce the warranty obligations of The Toro® Company. I. The use of any add–on or modified parts will be grounds for disallowing a warranty claim made in accordance with this article. The Toro® Company will not be liable under this Article to warrant failures of warranted parts caused by the use of an add–on or modified part. J. The Toro® Company shall provide any documents that describe the warranty procedures or policies within five working days of request by the Air Resources Board.

Toro may use factory remanufactured parts rather than new parts for some warranty repairs. 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 substi- tute 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 printed in your operator’s manual or con- tained 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. If all other remedies fail, you may contact us at Toro Warranty Company. Part No. 374-0031 Rev. C
