Torque Specifications |
Fastener Identification |
Recommended fastener torque values are listed in the following tables. For critical applications, as determined by Toro, either the recommended torque or a torque that is unique to the application is clearly identified and specified in the service manual.
These torque specifications for the installation and tightening of fasteners shall apply to all fasteners which do not have a specific requirement identified in the service manual. The following factors shall be considered when applying torque: cleanliness of the fastener, use of a thread sealant (Loctite), degree of lubrication on the fastener, presence of a prevailing torque feature, hardness of the surface underneath of the fastener’s head, or similar condition which affects the installation.
As noted in the following tables, torque values should be reduced by 25% for lubricated fasteners to achieve the similar stress as a dry fastener. Torque values may also have to be reduced when the fastener is threaded into aluminum or brass. The specific torque value should be determined based on the aluminum or brass material strength, fastener size, length of thread engagement, etc.
The standard method of verifying torque shall be performed by marking a line on the fastener (head or nut) and mating part, then back off fastener 1/4 of a turn. Measure the torque required to tighten the fastener until the lines match up.

Note: Reduce torque values listed in the table above by 25% for lubricated fasteners. Lubricated fasteners are defined as threads coated with a lubricant such as oil, graphite, or thread sealant such as Loctite.
Note: Torque values may have to be reduced when installing fasteners into threaded aluminum or brass. The specific torque value should be determined based on the fastener size, the aluminum or base material strength, length of thread engagement, etc.
Note: The nominal torque values listed above for Grade 5 and 8 fasteners are based on 75% of the minimum proof load specified in SAE J429. The tolerance is approximately ± 10% of the nominal torque value. Thin height nuts include jam nuts.

XL Gear Drive Shift Lever
Adjustment - 915 Transaxle
It is VERY important the shift lever is properly aligned with the shift gates.
If the gear shift lever and shift gates do not properly align, you may encounter the following symptoms:
1.No reverse.
2.No fifth gear.
3.Jumping out of gear.
If the misalignment is ignored for a period of time, severe transaxle damage will result.
Adjust using the following procedure:
1.Disconnect the battery cables and remove the battery and battery tray.
XL Lawn Tractor Service Manual |

XL GEAR DRIVE
2.Remove the rear hitch panel by removing the two bolts and nuts holding the seat springs and two bolts and nuts located on each side of the hitch panel. Loosen the fastener securing the front cable guide to remove tension from the shift cable (Figure 36).
4.Shift the transaxle through each gear to verify the gear shift lever centers in each gate as the internal transaxle detents are felt. The lever should also “detent” into 5th gear and reverse (Figure 38). That is, the shift lever should not contact the side of the metal “fingers” of each gate as the lever enters the gate.

6.If the shifter still does not go into 5th gear, loosen the jam nut on the tie rod end of the shift arm and remove the nut. Rotate the tie rod end until the gear shift lever is centered in the 5th gear gate. Place the shift arm on the gear selector shaft and verify that neutral, reverse, and fifth gears properly align. Reinstall the shift arm fastener and tighten the jam nut (Figure 40).
XL Gear Drive Brake Adjustment -

The brake is located on the right side of the rear axle, inside the rear tire. If the brake does not hold securely or stopping power is insufficient, an adjustment is required (Figure 41).

7.Reassembly:
A.Ensure the transaxle and engine pulley belt guides are positioned 1/8” (3mm) away from the drive belt.
B.Adjust the transaxle shift cable (refer to “Cable Adjustment, Shift-On-The-Go, 915 and MST205 Transaxle” on page 2 - 19.)
C.Reinstall the shift gate cover, rear hitch panel, battery, and battery tray. Note: Make sure the battery drain tube is installed in rear hole of the frame (Figure 35). Reconnect the battery cables.
D.Test drive the tractor and verify all adjustments and safety switches are operating properly.

1.Park the machine on a level surface, disengage the blade control (PTO), shift into neutral, set the parking brake, and turn the ignition key to “OFF” to stop the engine.
2.If the rear wheels lock and skid when you push the tractor forward, no adjustment is required. An adjustment is required if the wheels turn and do not lock.
3.To increase braking resistance, tighten the brake adjusting nut (Figure 41) 1/8 turn clockwise; then check the brake again. Continue this adjusting and checking process until the brake is set properly.
If the brake system does not respond to adjustment, the brake pads and possibly the brake disc, require replacement.
4.Push down on the clutch/brake pedal to release the parking brake.
IMPORTANT: With the parking brake released, the rear wheels must rotate freely when you push the tractor. If the brake seems to “drag”, loosen the adjusting nut slightly until the wheels rotate freely.
