Safe Operating Practices
Warning
The WORKMAN is an off–highway vehicle
only, and is not designed, equipped, or
manufactured for use on public streets, roads
or highways.
The WORKMAN 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,
maintenance and storage of the machine. Improper use
or maintenance of the machine can result in injury or
death.
This is a specialized utility vehicle designed for off–road
use only. its ride and handling will have a different feel
than what drivers experience with passenger cars or
trucks. So take time to become familiar with your
WORKMAN.
Not all of the attachments that adapt to the
WORKMAN are covered in this manual. See the
specific Operator’s Manual provided with attachment
for additional safety instructions. READ THESE
MANUALS.
TO REDUCE THE POTENTIAL FOR INJURY OR
DEATH, COMPLY WITH THE FOLLOWING
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS.
• Never allow children to operate the vehicle. Never
allow adults to operate it without proper instructions.
Only trained and authorized persons should operate this
vehicle. Make sure all operators are physically and
mentally capable of operating the vehicle. Anyone who
operates the vehicle should have a motor vehicle
license.
• This vehicle is designed to carry only you, the operator,
and one passenger in the seat provided by the
manufacturer. Never carry any other passengers on the
vehicle.
• Never operate the vehicle when under the influence of
drugs or alcohol.
• 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 or jewelry which could get
caught in moving parts and cause personal injury.
• Wearing safety glasses, safety shoes, long pants and a
helmet is advisable and required by some local safety
and insurance regulations.
• Keep everyone, especially children and pets, away from
the areas of operation.
• Before operating the vehicle, always check all parts of
the vehicle and any attachments. If something is wrong,
stop using vehicle. Make sure problem is corrected
before vehicle or attachment is operated again.
Supervisor’s Responsibilities
• Make sure operators are thoroughly trained and familiar
with the Operator’s Manual and all labels on the
vehicle.
• Be sure to establish your own special procedures and
work rules for unusual operating conditions (e.g. slopes
too steep for vehicle operation). Use the 3rd High
Lockout switch if high speed could result in a safety or
vehicle abuse situation.
Before Operating
• Operate the machine only after reading and
understanding the contents of this manual. A
replacement manual is available by sending complete
model and serial number to: The Toro Company, 8111
Lyndale Avenue South, Minneapolis, Minnesota 55420.
• Since diesel fuel is highly flammable, handle it
carefully.
– Use an approved fuel container.
– Do not remove cap from fuel tank when engine is
hot or running.
– Do not smoke while handling fuel.
– Fill fuel tank outdoors and to about one inch below
top of tank (bottom of filler neck). Do not overfill.
– Wipe up any spilled fuel.
• Use only an approved non–metal, portable fuel
container. Static electric discharge can ignite fuel
vapors in a ungrounded fuel container. Remove the fuel
container from the bed of the vehicle and place on the
ground away from the vehicle before filling. Keep
nozzle in contact with container while filling. Remove
equipment from vehicle bed before filling.

Page 5
• Check the safety interlock system daily for proper
operation; refer to page 32. If a switch should
malfunction, replace the switch before operating
machine. After every two years, replace the interlock
switches in the safety system, whether they are working
properly or not.
While Operating
• Operator and passenger should remain seated whenever
the vehicle is in motion. Operator should keep both
hands on steering wheel, whenever possible and
passenger should use hand holds provided. Keep arms
and legs within the vehicle body at all times. Never
carry passengers in the box or on attachments.
Remember your passenger may not be expecting you to
brake or turn and may not be ready.
• Never overload your vehicle. Name plate (located under
dash on passenger side) shows load limits for vehicle.
Never overfill attachments or exceed the vehicle
maximum GVW.
• When starting the engine:
– Sit on operator’s seat and ensure parking brake is
engaged.
– Disengage PTO (if so equipped) and return hand
throttle lever to OFF position (if so equipped).
– Move shift lever to NEUTRAL and depress clutch
pedal.
– Keep foot off accelerator pedal.
– Turn ignition key to ON, hold glow plug switch ON.
(Maximum 30 seconds).
– Turn ignition key to START.
• Using the machine demands attention. Failure to
operate vehicle safely may result in an accident, tip over
of vehicle and serious injury or death. Drive carefully.
To prevent tipping or loss of control:
– Use extreme caution, reduce speed and maintain a
safe distance around sand traps, ditches, creeks,
ramps, any unfamiliar areas or other hazards.
– Watch for holes or other hidden hazards.
– Use caution when operating vehicle on a steep
slope. Normally travel straight up and down slopes.
Reduce speed when making sharp turns or when
turning on hillsides. Avoid turning on hillsides
whenever possible.
– Use extra caution when operating vehicle on wet
surfaces, at higher speeds or with a full load.
Stopping time will increase with a full load. Shift
into a lower gear before starting up or down a hill.
– When loading bed, distribute load evenly. Use extra
caution if the load exceeds the dimensions of the
vehicle/bed. Operate vehicle with extra caution
when handling off–center loads that cannot be
centered. Keep loads balanced and secure to prevent
them from shifting.
– Avoid sudden stops and starts. Do not go from
reverse to forward or forward to reverse without
first coming to a complete stop.
– Do not attempt sharp turns or abrupt maneuvers or
other unsafe driving actions that may cause a loss of
vehicle control.
– Do not pass another vehicle traveling in the same
direction at intersections, blind spots, or at other
dangerous locations.
– When dumping, do not let anyone stand behind
vehicle and do not dump load on any one’s feet.
Release tailgate latches from side of box, not from
behind.
– Keep al bystanders away. Before backing up, look to
the rear and assure no one is behind. Back up
slowly.
– Watch out for traffic when near or crossing roads.
Always yield the right of way to pedestrians and
other vehicles. This vehicle is not designed for use
on streets or highways. Always signal your turns or
stop early enough so other persons know what you
plan to do. Obey all traffic rules and regulations.
– Never operate vehicle in or near an area where there
is dust or fumes in the air which are explosive. The
electrical and exhaust systems of the vehicle can
produce sparks capable of igniting explosive
materials.
– Always watch out for and avoid low over hangs
such as tree limbs, door jambs, over head walkways,
etc. Make sure there is enough room over head to
easily clear the vehicle and your head.
– If ever unsure about safe operation, STOP WORK
and ask your supervisor.
• Do not touch engine, transaxle, radiator, muffler or
muffler manifold while engine is running or soon after
it has stopped because these areas may be hot enough to
cause burns.
• If the machine ever vibrates abnormally, stop
immediately, turn engine off, wait for all motion to stop
and inspect for damage. Repair all damage before
resuming operation.
• Before getting off the seat:
– Stop movement of the machine.

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 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 system must be
relieved by stopping engine, cycling dump valve from
raise to lower and/or lowering box and attachments.
Place the remote hydraulics lever in the float position. If
box must be in raised position, secure with safety
support.

cylinders for alignment with holes. Keep fingers out!
Note: Unused slot can be plugged with a capscrew and nut
to prevent assembly errors.
4. Start engine and engage hydraulic lift lever to raise bed.
Release lift lever and turn off engine. Secure raised bed
with a hoist or block it to prevent it from accidentally
falling.
5. Install lynch pins to inside ends of clevis pins.
Note: If automatic tail gate release has been installed on
bed, make sure front dump link rod has been placed on
inside of left side clevis pin before lynch pin is installed.
6. Once cylinder installation has been completed, the bed
safety support can be used to prevent accidental
lowering of the bed. Refer to Using Bed Safety Support.

Before Operating
Caution
Before servicing or making adjustments to the
machine, stop engine, set parking brake and
remove key from the switch. Any load material
must be removed from bed or other attachment
before working under raised bed. Always rotate
safety support to the down position before working
under raised bed.
Check Crankcase Oil
The engine is shipped with approximately 3.5 quarts
(w/ filter) of oil in the crankcase; however, level of oil must
be checked before and after the engine is first started.
1. Position machine on a level surface.
2. Remove dipstick and wipe it with a clean rag. Insert
dipstick into tube and make sure it is seated fully.
Remove dipstick and check level of oil.

Figure 13
1. Filler cap
Note: When adding oil, remove dipstick to allow proper
venting, pour oil slowly and check the level often during
this process. DO NOT OVERFILL.
Important When adding engine oil or filling oil, there
must be clearance between the oil fill device and the oil fill
hole in the valve cover as shown in figure 14. This
clearance is necessary to permit venting when filling, which
prevents oil from overrunning into breather.

Figure 12
1. Dipstick
3. The engine uses any high-quality 10W30 detergent oil
having the American Petroleum Institute -API- “service
classification” CF or better.
4. If oil level is low, remove filler cap and add enough oil
to raise level to FULL mark on dipstick.
Figure 14
5. Install the dipstick firmly in place.
Important Check level of oil every 8 operating hours
or daily. Change oil and filter initially after the first 50
hours of operation, thereafter, change oil and filter
every 100 hours. However, change oil more frequently
when engine is operated in extremely dusty or dirty
conditions.
Note: After filling or changing oil, start and run the engine
at idle for 30 seconds. Shut engine off. Wait 30 seconds and
check oil level. Add enough oil to raise level to FULL mark
on dipstick.

Fill Fuel Tank
Check Cooling System
Fuel tank capacity is approximately 7 gallons.
The engine runs on No. 2–D or 1–D automotive type diesel
fuel with a minimum cetane rating of 40.
Note: Higher cetane rated fuel may be required if machine
is to be used at high altitudes and low-atmospheric
temperatures.
1. Clean area around fuel tank cap.
2. Remove fuel tank cap.
Danger
Under certain conditions, diesel fuel and fuel
vapors are highly flammable and explosive. A fire
or explosion from fuel can burn you and others
and can cause property damage.
• Use a funnel and fill the fuel tank outdoors, in
an open area, when the engine is off and is cold.
Wipe up any fuel that spills.
• Do not fill the fuel tank completely full. Add fuel
to the fuel tank until the level is 1/4 to 1/2 in. (6
to 13 mm) below the bottom of the filler neck.
This empty space in the tank allows the fuel to
expand.
• Never smoke when handling fuel, and stay away
from an open flame or where fuel fumes may be
ignited by a spark.
• Store fuel in a clean, safety-approved container
and keep the cap in place.
Capacity of cooling system is approximately 4 qts.
The cooling system is filled with a 50/50 solution of water
and permanent ethylene glycol anti–freeze. Check level of
coolant at beginning of each day before starting the engine.
1. Park machine on a level surface.
Caution
If the engine has been running, the pressurized,
hot coolant can escape and cause burns.
• Do not open the radiator cap when the engine is
running.
• Use a rag when opening the radiator cap, and
open the cap slowly to allow steam to escape.
2. Check coolant level. Coolant should be up to COLD
line on reserve tank, when engine is cold.

Check Torque Of Wheel Nuts
Warning
Failure to maintain proper torque of the wheel
nuts could result in failure or loss of wheel and
may result in personal injury.
Torque the front and rear wheel nuts to
55–75 ft.-lb. after 1–4 hours of operation and again
after 10 hours of operation. Torque every 200
hours thereafter.
Check Front Differential Oil
Four wheel drive only
The differential is filled with 10W30 oil. Check level of oil
every 100 hours or monthly. Capacity of system is 1 qt.
1. Position the vehicle on a level surface.
2. Clean area around fill/check plug on side of differential.
3. Remove fill/check plug and check level of oil. Oil
should be up to hole. If oil is low, add 10W30 oil.
4. Re–install fill/check plug.
Check Tire Pressure
Check tire pressure every 8 hours or daily to assure proper
levels.
Maximum air pressure in front tires is 20 psi and rear (24”)
tires is 18 psi.
1. The air pressure needed is determined by the payload
carried.
2. The lower the air pressure, the less the compaction and
tire marks are minimized. Lower pressure should not be
used for heavy payloads at high speeds. Tire damage
may result.
3. Higher pressures should be used for heavier payloads at
higher speeds. Do not exceed the maximum pressure.
Use the following charts to determine correct tire
pressures for tire size and payload of vehicle.

Clutch Pedal
The clutch pedal (Fig. 20) must be fully depressed to
disengage clutch when starting engine or shifting
transmission gears. Release pedal smoothly when
transmission is in gear to prevent unnecessary wear on
transmission and other related parts.
Important Do not ride clutch pedal during
operation. Clutch pedal must be fully out or clutch will
slip causing friction and wear. Never hold the vehicle
stopped on a hill using the clutch pedal. Damage to the
clutch may occur.
Brake Pedal
The brake pedal (Fig. 20) is used to apply service brakes to
stop or slow vehicle.
Caution
Down shifting from too high a speed can cause the
rear wheels to skid resulting in loss of vehicle
control as well as clutch and/or transmission
damage. Shift smoothly to avoid grinding gears.
Differential Lock
Allows rear axle to be locked for increased traction.
Differential lock (Fig. 21) may be engaged with vehicle in
motion. Move lever forward and to the right to engage lock.
Note: Vehicle motion plus a slight turn is required to
engage or disengage differential lock.
Caution
Turning with the differential lock on can result in
loss of vehicle control. Do not operate with
differential lock on when making sharp turns or at
high speeds. Refer to using the differential lock.

Parking Brake
Whenever the engine is shut off, the parking brake (Fig. 21)
must be engaged to prevent accidental movement of the
vehicle. To engage the parking brake, pull back on lever. To
disengage, push lever forward. Make sure parking brake is
released before moving vehicle. If vehicle is parked on a
steep grade, make sure parking brake is applied. Also, shift
the transmission into 1st gear on a uphill grade or reverse
on a down hill grade. Place chocks at the down hill side of
wheels.
Hydraulic Lift
Raises and lowers bed. Move rearward to raise, forward to
lower (Fig. 21).
Important When lowering bed, hold lever in forward
position for 1 or 2 seconds after bed contacts frame to
secure it in lowered position. Do not hold the hydraulic lift
in either the raise or lower position, for more than 5
seconds, once the cylinders have reached the end of their
travel. The hydraulic pump may over heat, resulting in
pump damage.
HIGH is for higher speed driving on level, dry surfaces
with light loads.
LOW is for low speed driving. Use this range when greater
than normal power or control is required. For example,
steep grades, difficult terrain, heavy loads, slow speed but
high engine speed (spraying).
Note: There is a location between HIGH and LOW in
which the transaxle is in neither range. This should not be
used as a neutral position because the vehicle could move
unexpectedly if the HIGH–LOW shifter is bumped and the
gear shift lever is in gear.

any light does not function, either a bulb is burned out
or there is a malfunction in the system which must be
repaired.
Note: Two functions of the warning light cluster are not
used: glow plug and high water temperature.
Engine Low Oil Pressure Light
Light glows (Fig. 22) if engine oil pressure drops below a
safe level while engine is running. If light flickers or
remains ON, stop vehicle, turn off engine and check oil
level. If oil level was low, but adding oil does not cause
light to go out when engine is restarted, turn engine off
immediately and contact your local TORO distributor for
assistance.
Important Do not operate vehicle until repair is
complete. Failure to observe this precaution may result in
damage to the engine.
Glow Plug Switch and Indicator

Important The fuel system must be bled if any of the
following situations have occurred.
• Initial start up of a new machine.
• Engine has ceased running due to lack of fuel.
• Maintenance has been performed upon fuel system
components; i.e., filter replaced, separator serviced, etc.
Safe operation begins before taking the vehicle out for a
day’s work. You should check these items each time:
• Check tire pressure.
Note: These tires are different than car tires, they require
less pressure to minimize turf compaction and damage.
• Check all fluid levels and add the appropriate amount of
Toro specified fluids, if any are found to be low.
• Check brake pedal operation.
• Check to see that the lights and horn are working.
• Turn steering wheel to the left and right to check
steering response.
• Check for oil leaks, loose parts and any other noticeable
malfunctions. Make sure engine is off and all moving
parts have stopped before checking for oil leaks, loose
parts and other malfunctions.
Refer to Bleeding The Fuel System.
1. Sit on operator’s seat and engage parking brake.
2. Disengage PTO (if so equipped) and return hand

New Vehicle Break–in
Your Workman is ready for work. To provide proper
performance and long vehicle life, follow these guidelines
for the first 100 operating hours.
• Check the fluid and engine oil levels regularly and be
alert for indications of overheating in any component of
the vehicle.
31
Page 32
• After starting a cold engine, let it warm up for about 15
seconds before shifting into gear.
• Avoid racing the engine.
• To assure optimum performance of the brake system,
burnish (break–in) the brakes before use. To burnish
brakes: Operate the vehicle at full speed for 3 minutes,
apply the brakes for 30 seconds while driving in 1st
gear. Repeat these steps 20 to 30 times. To verify the
brakes are completely burnished remove a rear tire and
inspect the brake drum for residue. The residue color
should be light grey to almost white color.
• Vary vehicle speeds during operation. Avoid excessive
idling. Avoid fast starts and quick stops.
• A break–in oil for the engine is not required. Original
engine oil is the same type specified for regular oil
changes.
• Refer to Maintenance section of Operator’s Manual for
any special low hour checks.
Check Interlock System
The purpose of the interlock system is to prevent the engine
from cranking or starting unless the clutch pedal is
depressed.
Operating Characteristics
The vehicle is designed with safety in mind. It has four
wheels for added stability. It uses familiar automotive style
controls, including the steering wheel, brake pedal, clutch
pedal, accelerator pedal, and gear shifter. It is important to
remember, however, that this vehicle is not a passenger car.
It is a work vehicle and is designed for off road use only.
Warning
The WORKMAN is an off–highway vehicle
only, and is not designed, equipped, or
manufactured for use on public streets, roads
or highways.
The vehicle has special tires, low gear ratios, a locking
differential, and other features that give it extra traction.
These features add to the versatility of the vehicle but, they
can also get you into dangerous situations. You must keep
in mind that the vehicle is not a recreation vehicle. It is not
an all terrain vehicle. And, it is definitely not meant for
“stunt driving” or “horsing around”. It is a work vehicle,
not a play vehicle. Children should not be allowed to
operate the vehicle. Anyone who operates the vehicle
should have a motor vehicle license.
To verify clutch interlock switch operation:
1. Sit on operator’s seat and engage parking brake. Move
shift lever to NEUTRAL position.
2. Without depressing clutch pedal, rotate key clockwise
to start position.
3. If engine cranks or starts, there is a malfunction in the
interlock system that must be repaired before operating
vehicle.
Caution
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 or 1500 hours,
whichever occurs first, regardless of whether
they are operating properly or not.
Refer to Attachment Operator’s Manual for procedure
on checking attachment interlock system.
If you are not experienced at driving the vehicle, practice
driving it in a safe area away from other people. Be sure
you are familiar with all the vehicle’s controls, particularly
those used for braking, steering and transmission shifting.
Learn how your vehicle handles on different surfaces. Your
operating skills will improve with experience, but as in
operating any vehicle, take it easy as you begin. Be sure
you know how to stop quickly in an emergency. If you need
help, ask your supervisor for assistance.
Many factors contribute to accidents. You have control over
several of the most important. Your actions, such as driving
too fast for conditions, braking too fast, turning too sharp,
and combinations of these, are frequent cause of accidents.
One of the major causes of accidents is fatigue. Be sure to
take occasional breaks. It is very important that you stay
alert at all times.
Never operate the vehicle, or any equipment, if you are
under the influence of alcohol or other drugs. Even
prescription drugs and cold medicines can cause
drowsiness. Read the label on the medicine or check with
your doctor or pharmacist if you are unsure about a certain
medication.
One of the most important rules to follow is to go slower in
unfamiliar areas. It is surprising how much damage and
injury common things can cause. Tree branches, fences,
32
Page 33
wires, other vehicles, tree stumps, ditches, sand traps,
streams, and other things found in most parks and golf
courses can be hazardous to the operator and passenger.
Avoid driving when it is dark, especially in unfamiliar
areas. If you must drive when it is dark, be sure to drive
cautiously, use the head lights, and even consider adding
additional lights.
Passengers
Braking
It is good practice to slow down before you get near an
obstacle. This gives you extra time to stop or turn away.
Hitting an obstacle can damage the vehicle and its contents.
More important, it can injure you and your passenger.
Gross vehicle weight has a major impact on your ability to
stop and/or turn. Heavier loads and heavier attachments
make a vehicle harder to stop or turn. The heavier the load,
the longer it takes to stop.
Whenever you have a passenger riding in the vehicle make
sure he or she is holding on securely. Drive slower and turn
less sharply because your passenger does not know what
you are going to do next and may not be prepared for
turning, stopping, accelerating, and bumps.
You and your passenger should remain seated at all times,
keeping arms and legs inside the vehicle. The operator
should keep both hands on steering wheel, whenever
possible and passenger should use hand holds provided.
There should never be passengers in the dump box or on
any attachments. The vehicle is meant to have one driver
and only one passenger–no more.
Speed
Speed is one of the most important variables leading to
accidents. Driving too fast for the conditions can cause you
to lose control and have an accident. Speed can also make a
minor accident worse. Driving head–on into a tree at slow
speed can cause injury and damage, but, driving into a tree
at high speed can destroy the vehicle and kill you and your
passenger.
Never drive too fast for the conditions. If there is any doubt
about how fast to drive, slow down.
When using heavy attachments (more than 1000 pounds),
such as sprayers, top dressers, or spreaders, etc., operating
speeds should be restricted by moving 3rd high lockout
switch to slow– – position.
The braking characteristics also change with no bed or
attachment on the vehicle. Fast stops may cause the rear
wheels to lock up before the front wheels lock up, which
may affect the control of the vehicle. It is a good idea to
decrease vehicle speed with no bed or attachment.
Turf and pavement are much slipperier when they are wet.
It can take 2 to 4 times as long to stop on wet surfaces as on
dry surfaces.
If you drive through standing water deep enough to get the
brakes wet, they will not work well until they are dry. After
driving through water, you should test the brakes to make
sure they work properly. If they do not, drive slowly in first
gear while putting light pressure on the brake pedal. This
will dry the brakes out.
Do not downshift for braking on icy or slippery surfaces
(wet grass) or while going down a hill because engine
braking may cause skidding and loss of control. Shift to a
lower gear before starting down a hill.
Tipovers
The TORO WORKMAN is equipped with a roll bar, hip
restraints, shoulder restraints and hand hold. The ROPS
system used on the vehicle will reduce the risk of serious or
fatal injury in the unlikely event of a tipover, although the
system cannot protect the operator from all possible
injuries.
Turning
Turning is another important variable leading to accidents.
Turning too sharply for the conditions can cause the vehicle
to lose traction and skid, or even tip over.
Wet, sandy and slippery surfaces make turning more
difficult and risky. The faster you are going, the worse this
situation becomes so, slow down before turning.
During a sharp turn at higher speeds, the inside rear wheel
may lift off of the ground. This is not a flaw in the design,
it happens with most four wheel vehicles including
passenger cars. If this happens, you are turning too sharply
for the speed at which you are traveling. Slow down!
33
Page 34
Replace a damaged ROPS, do not repair or revise. Any
alteration of ROPS must be approved by manufacturer.
The best way to prevent accidents involving utility vehicles
is through continuous supervision and training of operators
and paying constant attention to the area in which vehicle is
being operated.
The best way for operators to prevent serious injury or
death to themselves or others, is to familiarize themselves
with the proper operation of the utility vehicle, to stay alert
and to avoid actions or conditions which could result in a
accident. In the event of a tip over, the risk of serious injury
or death will be reduced if the operator is using the ROPS
system and follows the instructions provided.
Hills
Warning
Tipping or rolling the vehicle on a hill will cause
serious personal injury.
• If engine stalls or you lose headway on a hill,
never attempt to turn vehicle around.
• Always back straight down a hill in reverse gear.
• Never back down in neutral or with the clutch
depressed, using only the brakes.
• Never drive across a steep hill, always drive
straight up or down.
• Avoid turning on a hill
• Don’t “drop the clutch” or slam on the brakes.
Sudden speed change can initiate tipover.
Use extra care when on hills. Never go on hills that are
extremely steep. Stopping while going down a hill will take
longer than on level ground. Turning while going up or
down a hill is more dangerous than turning on the level.
Turns while going down hill, especially with the brakes on,
and, turning up hill while traversing a hill are particularly
dangerous. Even at a slow speed and without a load, tip
overs are more likely if you turn on a hill.
Slow down and shift into a lower gear before starting up or
down a hill. If you have to turn while on a hill, do it as
slowly and cautiously as possible. Never make sharp or fast
turns on a hill.
If you stall or begin to lose headway while climbing a steep
hill, quickly apply the brakes, shift to neutral, restart the
engine and shift to reverse. At idle speed, engine and
transaxle drag will aid the brakes in controlling the vehicle
on the hill and help you back down the hill more safely.
Reduce the weight of the load if it is a steep hill or if the
load has high center of gravity. Remember, loads can shift.
Secure them.

Page 35
Note: The Workman has excellent hill climbing ability.
The differential lock will increase this ability. Hill climbing
traction can also be increased by adding weight to the rear
of the vehicle in one of the following ways:
• Adding weight to inside of box, making sure it is
secured.
• Mounting wheel weights to rear wheels.
• Adding liquid ballast (calcium chloride) to rear tires.
• Traction will increase with no passenger in front seat.
Loading And Dumping
The weight and position of the cargo and passenger can
change the vehicle center of gravity and vehicle handling.
To avoid loss of control resulting in personal injury, follow
these guidelines.
Do not carry loads which exceed the load limits described
on the vehicle weight label.
Warning
the total weight is one way to reduce the risk of a tip over.
Distributing the load as low as possible is another way to
reduce the risk of a tip over.
If the load is positioned toward one of the sides, it will
make the vehicle much more likely to tip over on that side.
This is especially true when turning if the load is on the
outside of the turn.
Never position heavy loads behind the rear axle. If the load
is positioned so far to the rear that it is behind the rear axle,
it will reduce the weight on the front wheels and this will
reduce steering traction. With the load all the way to the
back, the front wheels can even come off of the ground
when going over bumps or up a hill. This will result in a
loss of steering and may lead to the vehicle tipping over.
As a general rule, position the weight of the load evenly
from front to rear and evenly from side to side.
If a load is not secured, or you are transporting a liquid in a
large container such as a sprayer, it can shift. This shifting
happens most often while turning, going up or down hills,
suddenly changing speeds or while driving over rough
surfaces. Shifting loads can lead to tip overs. Always secure
loads so that they do not shift. Never dump the load while
the vehicle is sideways on the hill.
The bed will lower whenever the dump lever is
pushed down, even when the engine is off. Turning
off the engine will NOT prevent the box from
lowering. Always place the safety support on
extended lift cylinder to hold box up if you are not
going to lower it right away.
Warning
When lowering the box it is possible for you or
others to get their hands or other body parts in the
wrong spot and have them crushed. Take extra
care that no one will get hurt. Also, do not dump
on anyone’s feet. It may seem funny but, it can be
dangerous.
The vehicle has several combinations of boxes, platforms,
and attachments available. These can be used in various
combinations that allow for maximum capacity and
versatility. The full sized box is 55 inches wide by 65
inches long and can hold up to 2000 pounds of evenly
distributed cargo.
Loads vary in how they are distributed. Sand spreads out
evenly and quite low. Other items, such as bricks, fertilizer
or landscape timbers, stack higher in the box.
The height and weight of the load has a significant
influence on tip overs. The higher a load is stacked, the
more likely the vehicle is to tip over. You may find that
2000 pounds stacks too high for safe operation. Reducing
Heavy loads increase stopping distance and reduce your
ability to turn quickly without tipping over.
The rear cargo space is intended for load carrying purposes
only, not for passengers.
Caution
When raising or lowering bed or implement,
hydraulic oil will bypass over a relief valve when
cylinders reach the end of their travel, stopping
power assist to steering gear and increasing
steering effort. Release lift levers to NEUTRAL
after bed or implement is raised or lowered, to
regain assist to power steering.
Using The Differential Lock
The differential lock increases the vehicle’s traction by
locking the rear wheels so one wheel will not spin out. This
can help when you have heavy loads to haul on wet turf or
slippery areas, going up hills and on sandy surfaces. It is
important to remember however, that this extra traction is
only for temporary limited use. Its use does not replace the
safe operation, already discussed concerning steep hills and
heavy loads.
The differential lock causes the rear wheels to spin at the
same speed. When using differential lock your ability to
make sharp turns is somewhat restricted and may scuff the
turf. Use the differential lock only when needed, at slower
speeds and only in first or second gear.
35
Page 36
Warning
Tipping or rolling the vehicle on a hill will cause
serious injury.
Towing Vehicle
In case of emergency, the vehicle can be towed for a short
distance. However, Toro does not recommend this as a
standard procedure.
• The extra traction available with the differential
lock can be enough to get you into dangerous
situations such as climbing slopes that are too
steep to turn around. Be extra careful when
operating with the differential lock on,
especially on steeper slopes.
• If the differential lock is on when making a
sharp turn at a higher speed and inside rear
wheel lifts off the ground, there may be a loss of
control which could cause vehicle to skid (Refer
to section on Differential Lock Operation). Use
the differential lock only at slower speeds.
Four Wheel Drive
Four Wheel Drive Only
The “Automatic on Demand” four wheel drive feature, on
this vehicle does not require operator activation. The front
wheel drive is not engaged (no power delivered to front
wheels) until the rear wheels begin to lose traction. The
bi–directional clutch senses the rear wheels slipping,
engages the front wheel drive and delivers power to the
front wheels. The four wheel drive system continues to
deliver power to the front wheels until the rear wheels have
enough traction to move the vehicle without slipping. Once
this occurs, the system stops delivering power to the front
wheels and the handling characteristics become similar to
that of a two wheel drive vehicle. The four wheel drive
system functions in both froward and reverse, however,
when turning the the rear wheels will slip slightly more
before power is delivered to the front wheels.
Warning
Towing at excessive speeds could cause vehicle to
lose steering control. Never tow vehicle faster than
5 MPH.
Towing the vehicle is a two person job. Affix a tow line to
holes in front frame member. Move shifter to Neutral and
release parking brake. If machine must be moved a
considerable distance, transport it on a truck or trailer.
Note: The power steering will not function, making it
difficult (increase effort) to steer.

Warning
Tipping or rolling the vehicle on a hill will cause
serious injury.
• The extra traction available with the four wheel
drive feature can be enough to get you into
dangerous situations such as climbing slopes
that are too steep to turn around. Be careful
when operating, especially on steeper slopes.
Transporting Vehicle
For moving the vehicle long distances, a trailer should be
used. Make sure the vehicle is secured to the trailer. Refer
to Figures 27 and 28 for location of tie down points.

Figure 28
1. Axle tube2. Hitch plate

Trailer T owing
The Workman is capable of pulling trailers and
attachments of greater weight than the vehicle itself.
36
Page 37
Several types of tow hitches are available for the Workman,
depending on your application. Contact your Authorized
TORO Distributor for details.
When equipped with a tow hitch bolted onto rear axle tube,
your Workman can tow trailers or attachments with a Gross
Trailer Weight (GTW) up to 1500 lbs. Always load a trailer
with 60% of the cargo weight in the front of the trailer. This
places approximately 10% (200 lbs. max.) of the Gross
Trailer Weight (GTW) on the tow hitch of the vehicle.
When towing either standard tongue or 5th wheel trailers
having a Gross Trailer Weight (GTW) in excess of 1500
lbs., use either a chassis mounted draw bar hitch (rated for
3500 lb. GTW) or 5th wheel kit with brakes. Trailer brakes
are required whenever a trailer over 1500 lbs. GTW is
towed behind a Workman vehicle.
When hauling cargo or towing a trailer (attachment), do not
overload your vehicle or trailer. Overloading can cause
poor performance or damage to the brakes, axle, engine,
transaxle, steering, suspension, body structure or tires.
Important To reduce potential for drive line damage,
use low range.
Off Position
This is the normal position for the control valve when it is
not being used. This position allows the oil leaving the
dump valve to flow through the remote hydraulic valve to
the power steering circuit. In this position the work ports
of the control valve are blocked and any load will be held
by the check valves in both directions.
Raise (Quick Coupler ”B” Position)
This is the position which will lift the rear hitch attachment
or apply pressure to quick coupler ”B”. This also allows
return oil from Quick coupler ”A” to flow back into the
valve and then out to the power steering circuit. This is a
momentary position and when the lever is released it spring
returns to the center off position.
Important Use double acting cylinders only. Using a
single acting cylinder does not allow return flow of
hydraulic oil and makes steering more difficult. Using a
single acting cylinder can lower oil level in transaxle and
cause damage to hydraulic pump and transaxle.
When towing 5th wheel attachments, like a fairway aerator,
always install the ”wheely bar”(included with the 5th wheel
kit) to prevent the front wheels from lifting off the ground
if the towed attachments movement is suddenly impaired.
Remote Hydraulic Control
Model 07213TC &07217TC only
The remote hydraulic control kit supplies “live” hydraulic
power from the vehicle pump whenever the engine is
running. The power can be used through the the quick
couplers at the rear of the vehicle.
CONTROL LEVER POSITIONS
On Position
This position is similar to Raise (quick coupler ”B”
position). It also directs oil to quick coupler ”B” except
that the lever is held in this position by a detent notch in the
control panel. This allows oil to flow continuously to
equipment that uses a hydraulic motor. This position must
only be used on attachments with a hydraulic motor
attached.
Note: If hydraulic motor is used, it may see 1000 psi back
pressure.
Important If used with a hydraulic cylinder or no
attachment, the Raise or On position causes the oil flow to
go over a relief valve which can damage the hydraulic
system. Additionally this condition does not allow return
flow to supply the power steering circuit, which makes
steering more difficult. Use these positions only
momentarily or with a motor attached.
Lower (Quick Coupler ”A” Position)
This position will lower the rear hitch attachment or apply
pressure to quick coupler ”A”. This also allows return oil
from quick coupler ”B” to flow back into the valve and
then out to the power steering circuit. This is a momentary
position and when the lever is released it spring returns to
the center off position. Momentarily holding and then
releasing the control lever in this position will provide flow
to quick coupler ”A” which provides power down on the
rear hitch. When released, it will hold the down pressure on
the hitch.
37
Page 38
Important If used with a hydraulic cylinder, holding
the control lever in the lower position causes the oil flow to
go over a relief valve which can damage the hydraulic
system.
Float Position
This valve position allows oil to flow in and out of the
work ports and is connected to the inlet and outlet ports at
the same time. This allows for attachments as the rear hitch
to ”float” up and down. The same pressure is applied to
both quick couplers due to back pressure from the steering
circuit.
Caution
Disconnection
Pull hose firmly from coupler
Important Clean and install dust plug and dust covers
to quick coupler ends when not in use.
Remote Hydraulic Control Trouble
Shooting:
• Difficulty in connecting or disconnecting quick
couplers.
• Pressure not relieved (Quick coupler under
pressure).
• Engine running.
Use caution when moving lever to the float position
because it will allow rear implement to lower
unimpeded.
Important Check hydraulic oil level after installation
of attachment. Check operation of attachment by cycling
attachment several times to purge air from system, then
recheck hydraulic oil level. Attachment cylinder will
slightly affect transaxle oil level. Operation of vehicle with
low oil level can damage pump, remote hydraulics, power
steering and vehicle transaxle.
Caution
Hydraulic fluid escaping under pressure can have
sufficient force to penetrate skin and do serious
damage. Care must be used when connecting or
disconnecting hydraulic quick couplers. Stop
engine, apply parking brake, lower attachment
and place remote hydraulic valve in float detent
position to relieve hydraulic pressure before
connecting or disconnecting quick couplers.
• Remote hydraulic valve not placed in float.
• Power steering hard.
• Remote valve not in neutral or float position.
• Remote hydraulic valve linkage out of adjustment.
• Hydraulic oil level low.
• Hydraulic oil hot.
• Hydraulic leaks.
• Fittings loose.
• Fitting missing o–ring.
• Attachment does not function.
• Quick couplers not fully engaged.
• Quick couplers are interchanged.
• Squealing noise.
• Remote valve left in ON detent position causing
hydraulic oil to flow over relief valve.
Quick Coupler Operation
Connection
Important Clean dirt from quick couplers before
connecting. Dirty couplers can introduce contamination to
hydraulic system.
Insert hose nipple into coupler until it snaps into position.
Note: When attaching remote hydraulic cylinders to the
quick couplers, determine which side of the remote
cylinder requires pressure, then attach that hose to quick
coupler “B”. Only connect double acting cylinders (two
hoses).

Jump Starting Procedure
Warning
Jump starting can be dangerous. To avoid personal
injury or damage to electrical components in
vehicle, observe the following warnings:
• Never jump start with a voltage sources greater
than 15 volts D.C. This will damage the
electrical system.
• Never attempt to jump start a discharged
battery that is frozen. It could rupture or
explode during jump starting.
• Observe all battery warnings while jump
starting your vehicle.
• Be sure your vehicle is not touching the jump
start vehicle.
• Connecting cables to the wrong post could result
in personal injury and/or damage to the
electrical system.
The box can be raised in an emergency by cranking starter
and holding lift lever. Run starter for 15 seconds then wait
60 seconds before engaging starter again.
If engine will not crank, the load and box (attachment)
must be removed to service engine or transaxle.
1. Loosen knobs securing battery cover to battery base and
slide cover off.
2. Connect a jumper cable between the positive posts of
the two batteries. The positive post may be identified by
a “+” sign on top of battery cover.

Battery Care
1. 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
1
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.
3. Connect one end of the other jumper cable to the
negative terminal of the battery in the other vehicle. The
negative terminal has “NEG” on the battery cover. Do
not connect the other end of the the jumper cable to the
negative post of the discharged battery. Connect it to the
engine. Do not connect the jumper cable to the fuel
system.
4. Start the engine in the vehicle providing the jump start.
Let it run a few minutes, then start your engine.
5. Remove the negative jumper cable first from your
engine, then the battery in the other vehicle.
6. Reinstall battery cover to battery base and tighten
knobs.
Battery Storage
Warning
CALIFORNIA
Proposition 65 Warning
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.
2. Keep top of battery clean by washing 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.
3. Battery cables must be tight on terminals to provide
good electrical contact.
4. If corrosion occurs at terminals,remove battery cover,
disconnect cables, negative (–) cable first and scrape
clamps and terminals separately. Reconnect cables,
positive (+) cable first and coat terminals with
petroleum jelly.
5. Check the electrolyte level every 50 operating hours or,
if machine is in storage, every 30 days.
6. Maintain cell level with distilled or demineralized
water. Do not fill cells above the bottom of the fill ring
inside each cell.
If the machine will be stored for more than 30 days, remove
the battery and charge it fully. Either store it on the shelf or
on the machine. Leave the cables disconnected if stored on
the machine. Store the battery in a cool atmosphere to
avoid quick deterioration of the charge in the battery. To
prevent battery from freezing, make sure it is fully charged.
The specific gravity of a fully charged battery is 1.250.
