steep hillsides, or other hazards.
– Reduce speed when making sharp turns. Avoid
sudden stops and starts.
• Do not touch the engine, muffler, exhaust pipe, or
hydraulic tank while the engine is running or soon after
it has stopped because these areas could be hot enough
to cause burns.
• If a cutting unit strikes a solid object or vibrates
abnormally, stop immediately, turn the engine off, wait
for all motion to stop, and inspect the machine for
damage. A damaged reel or bedknife must be repaired
or replaced before operation is continued.
leaks. Hydraulic fluid escaping under pressure can have
sufficient force to penetrate the skin and cause serious
injury.
• Before disconnecting or performing any work on the
hydraulic system, all pressure in the system must be
relieved by stopping the engine and lowering the cutting
units to the ground.
• If the engine must be running to perform a maintenance
adjustment, keep hands, feet, clothing, and any parts of
the body away from the cutting units, attachments, and
any moving parts. Keep everyone away.
• Do not overspeed the engine by changing governor
settings. To ensure safety and accuracy, have an
Authorized Toro Distributor check the maximum engine
speed.
• The engine must be shut off before checking the oil or
adding oil to the crankcase.
• If major repairs are ever needed or if assistance is
desired, contact an Authorized Toro Distributor.
• To make sure of optimum performance and continued
safety certification of the machine, use only genuine
Toro replacement parts and accessories. Replacement
parts and accessories made by other manufacturers
could be dangerous, and such use could void the
product warranty.
• Before getting off of the seat, move the traction pedal to
neutral, set the parking brake, disengage the cutting
units, and wait for the reels to stop. Stop the engine and
remove the key from the ignition switch.
• Hills over 15 degrees should be mowed up and down,
not side to side.
• Mowing hills may be dangerous. Hills over 20 degrees
generally should not be mowed unless special
safeguards, skills, and conditions exist.
• For steering control, the cutting units must be lowered
when going down slopes.
• Use the reverse pedal for braking.
• Watch out for traffic when near or crossing roads.
Always yield the right of way.
• Raise the cutting units when driving from one work
area to another.
Maintenance and Storage
• Make sure all hydraulic line connectors are tight and all
hydraulic hoses and lines are in good condition before
applying pressure to the system.

is not 1/4 in. (6 mm), an adjustment to the lift cylinder
is required. If the distance is correct, remove the carrier
frame and proceed with the setup instructions.
4. If an adjustment to the lift cylinder is required, proceed
as follows:
A. Remove the clevis pin securing the rod end of the
lift cylinder to the lift arm (Fig. 4).
B. Loosen the hex nut securing the clevis to the
cylinder rod.
C. Rotate the clevis end in or out until 1/4 in. (6 mm)
clearance is attained. Check the adjustment and
repeat steps 2–3 as required.
D. Tighten the hex nut and connect the cylinder rod end
to the lift arm (Fig. 4).
Installing the Front Lift Arms
1. Insert a pivot rod into the left lift arm and align the
