Safety Instructions
The SAND PRO 5000 was designed and tested to
offer safe service when operated and maintained
properly. Although hazard control and accident prevention partially depend up the design and configuration of the machine, these factors also depend on
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.
WARNING: Engine exhaust contains carbon monoxide which is an odorless, deadly poison. Do not run
the engine indoors or in an enclosed area.

C. Do not smoke while handling gasoline.
D. Fill fuel tank outdoors and to about one inch
below top of tank, (bottom of filler neck).
Do not overfill.
E. Wipe up any spilled gasoline.
10. Check the safety interlock system daily for prop-
er operation; refer to page 14. If the switch
should malfunction, replace the switch before
operating the machine. (After every two years,
replace the interlock switch in the safety system,
whether it is working properly or not.)
2. Never allow children to operate the machine or
adults to operate it without proper instructions.
3. Become familiar with the controls and know
how to stop the engine quickly.

replace it before operating the machine.
5. Always wear substantial shoes. Do not operate
the 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.
6. Wearing safety glasses, safety shoes, long pants
and a helmet is advisable and required by some
local safety and insurance regulations.
7. Ensure traction neutral is adjusted correctly so
the engine cannot be started unless the traction
pedal is released and in neutral position.
8. Keep everyone, especially children and pets
WHILE OPERATING
11. Exhaust fumes are hazardous and could be dead-
ly, so do not run the engine in a confined area
without adequate ventilation.
12. Sit on the seat when operating the machine.
Never carry passengers.
13. When starting the engine:
A. Make sure the traction pedal is released.
B. After the engine is started, keep foot off the
traction pedal. The machine must not move.
If movement is evident, the neutral return
mechanism is adjusted incorrectly; therefore, shut the engine off and
readjust so the machine does not move

and all hydraulic hoses and lines are in good
condition before applying pressure to the system.
22. 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.
23. Before disconnecting or performing any work on
the hydraulic system, all pressure in system
must be relieved by stopping the engine and
lowering attachments to the ground.

Before Operating
CAUTION
Before servicing or making adjustments to the
machine, stop the engine, pull the wires off the
spark plugs and remove the key from the switch.
CHECK CRANKCASE OIL
(Fig. 1)
The engine is shipped with 1-3/4 quarts (w/ filter) of
oil in the crankcase; however, the oil level must be
checked before and after the engine is first started.
1. Position the machine on a level surface.
2. Pivot the seat upward.
3. Unscrew the dipstick and wipe it with a clean
cloth. Screw the dipstick into the tube and make
sure it is seated fully. Unscrew the dipstick from
the tube and check the level of oil. 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.
4. The engine uses any high-quality detergent oil
having the American Petroleum Institute —
API— “service classification” SE, SF or SG.
Recommended viscosity (weight) is SAE 30.
in the tube to provide proper sealing of the engine
crankcase. Failure to seal the crankcase may
result in engine damage.
IMPORTANT: Check the level of oil 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 50
hours and the filter every 100 hours. However,
change the oil more frequently when the engine is
operated in extremely dusty or dirty conditions.
FILL THE FUEL TANK
DANGER
Because gasoline is flammable, caution must be
used when storing or handling it. Do not fill the
fuel tank while the engine is running, hot or when
the machine is in an enclosed area. Vapors may
build up and be ignited by a spark or flame source
many feet away.
DO NOT SMOKE while filling the fuel tank to
prevent the possibility of an explosion. Always fill
the fuel tank outside and wipe up any spilled gasoline before starting the engine. Use a funnel or
spout to prevent spilling gasoline, and fill the tank
no higher than one inch below the top of the tank
(bottom of the filler neck). DO NOT OVER FILL.
➀
Figure 1
1. Dipstick
5. Install the dipstick firmly in place.
IMPORTANT: The dipstick must be fully seated
Store gasoline in a clean safety approved container
and keep the cap on the container. Keep gasoline
in a cool, well-ventilated place; never in an
enclosed area such as a hot storage shed. To assure
volatility, do no buy more than a 30-day supply of
gasoline. Gasoline is a fuel for internal combustion
engines; therefore do not use it for any other purpose. Since many children like the smell of gas,
keep it out of their reach because the fumes are
explosive and dangerous to inhale.
Fuel tank capacity is approximately 5.5 gallons.
THE TORO COMPANY STRONGLY RECOMMENDS THE USE OF FRESH, CLEAN,
UNLEADED REGULAR GRADE GASOLINE IN
TORO GASOLINE POWERED PRODUCTS.
