Toro Mower Safety
T he follo wing list contains safety infor mation
specific to T oro products or other safety
infor mation that y ou m ust kno w that is not
included in the ANSI standards .
T his product is capable of amputating hands and
feet and thro wing objects . Alw a ys follo w all safety
instr uctions to a v oid serious injur y or death.
Use of this product for pur poses other than its
intended use could pro v e dang erous to user and
b ystanders .
Operation
• Sit on the seat when star ting and operating the
mac hine .
• Alw a ys w ear substantial shoes . Do not operate
the mac hine while w earing sandals , tennis
shoes , or sneak ers .
• W earing safety shoes and long pants is advisable
and required b y some local ordinances and
insurance regulations .
• Handle fuel carefully . Wipe up any spills .
• Chec k the safety interloc k switc hes daily
for proper operation. If a switc h should
fail, re place the switc h before operating the
mac hine . After ev er y tw o years , re place all
three interloc k switc hes in the safety system,
reg ardless if they are w orking properly or not.
• Using the mac hine demands attention. T o
prev ent loss of control:
Do not dri v e close to sand traps , ditc hes ,
creeks , or other hazards .
• R educe speed when making shar p tur ns . A v oid
sudden stops and star ts .
• Do not touc h the engine , m uffler , or exhaust
pipe while the engine is r unning or soon after
5
it has stopped because these areas could be hot
enough to cause bur ns .
• If a cutting unit strik es a solid object or vibrates
abnor mally , stop immediately , tur n the engine
off , w ait for all motion to stop , and inspect
the mac hine for damag e . A damag ed reel or
bedknife m ust be re paired or re placed before
operation is contin ued.
• T ra v erse slopes carefully . Do not star t or stop
suddenly when tra v eling uphill or do wnhill.
• T he operator m ust be skilled and trained in
ho w to dri v e on hillsides . F ailure to use caution
on slopes or hills ma y cause loss of control
and cause the v ehicle to tip or roll, possibly
resulting in personal injur y or death. On 4
wheel dri v e models , alw a ys use the seat belt and
R oll Ov er Protection System (R OPS) tog ether .
• If the engine stalls or loses headw a y and cannot
mak e it to the top of a slope , do not tur n the
mac hine around. Alw a ys bac k slo wly , straight
do wn the slope .
• W hen a person or pet appears unexpectedly
in or near the mo wing area, stop mo wing .
Careless operation, combined with ter rain
angles , ricoc hets , or improperly positioned
guards can lead to thro wn object injuries . Do
not resume mo wing until the area is cleared.
• Do not park on slopes unless the wheels are
c hoc k ed or bloc k ed.
Maintenance and Storage
• Mak e sure all h y draulic line connectors are
tight and all h y draulic hoses and lines are in
g ood condition before applying pressure to the
system.

• If major re pairs are ev er needed or if assistance
is desired, contact an A uthorized T oro
Distributor .
• T o mak e sure of optim um perfor mance and
contin ued safety cer tification of the mac hine ,
use only g en uine T oro re placement par ts

Sound Pressure Level
T his unit has an equi v alent contin uous A-w eighted
sound pressure at the operator ear of: 86 dB(A),
based on measurements of identical mac hines per
Directi v e 98/37/EC and amendments .
Vibration Level
T his unit does not ex ceed a vibration lev el of
2.5 m/s² at the hands based on measurements of
identical mac hines per ISO 5349 procedures .
T his unit does not ex ceed a vibration lev el of
.5 m/s² at the posterior based on measurements of

escaping under pressure can ha v e sufficient
force to penetrate the skin and cause serious
injur y .
• Before disconnecting or perfor ming any w ork
on the h y draulic system, all pressure in the

Procedure
Cutting unit models 03860, 03861, and 03862 can
be installed at any of the mounting locations on
the traction unit. Figure 3 sho ws the orientation of
the h y draulic dri v e motor for eac h of the locations .
F or any of the locations requiring the motor to
be mounted on the right end of the cutting unit,
install a counter w eight on the left end of the
cutting unit. F or the locations requiring the motor
to be mounted on the left end, install a counter
w eight on the right end of the cutting unit.
Note: Counterw eight mounting capscrews are
shipped installed on the right bearing housing of
the cutting units . T he capscrews on left bearing
housing are to be used for securing the h y draulic
motor .

Making Alternate Cutting
Unit Adjustments
No Parts Required
Procedure
T he factor y sets the tractor appropriately for
most fairw a y mo wing applications . Sev eral
adjustments for fine-tuning the mac hine
for par ticular applications are included in
Cutting Unit Maintenance , pag e 48 , as follo ws:
• Adjusting the turf compensation spring
Adjusts the amount of fore and aft rotation
a v ailable , the amount of g round clearance in
transpor t, and transfers the w eight from the
front to rear roller , reducing bobbing (a w a v e
patter n in the turf).
• Adjusting the cutting unit lo w ering rate
Adjusts the speed at whic h the cutting units
lo w er .

• Adjusting the lifted height of the outer front
cutting units
Adjusts the tur naround height of the outer
front cutting units to pro vide g reater clearance
on contoured fairw a ys .

Red Diagnostic Light
T he red diagnostic light ( Figure 9 ), located on
steering to w er , is used to con v ey sev eral different
messag es . W hile star ting the mac hine , the light
will illuminate when the glo w plugs are on.
If the light blinks during operation, it ma y indicate
any of the follo wing:
• T he mac hine is being operated faster than the
maxim um speed v alue initially prog rammed
into the ECU .
• An electrical malfunction has been detected
(open or shor ted output.
• A h y draulic leak has been detected (Only if
T urfdefender leak detector is installed on
mac hine)
• A comm unications er ror has been detected
(Only if T urfdefender leak detector is installed
on mac hine)
A knob on the left side of console actuates parking

connect pedals with loc king pin, push do wn on
both pedals and pull parking brak e latc h out. T o
release parking brak e , de press both pedals until
parking brak e latc h retracts .
Reverse Speed Limiter
Adjust the screw ( Figure 9 ) to limit the amount the
traction pedal can be de pressed in the rearw ard
direction to limit speed.
