Safe Operating Practices
The following instructions are from ANSI
standard B71.1-2003.
This product is capable of amputating hands
and feet and throwing objects. Always follow
all safety instructions to avoid serious injury or
death.
General Operation
• Read, understand, and follow all
instructions in the operator’s manual and
on the machine before starting.
• Do not place hands or feet near rotating
parts or under the machine. Keep clear of
the discharge opening at all times.
• Allow only responsible adults who are
familiar with the instructions to operate the
machine.
• Clear the area of objects such as rocks,
toys, wire, etc., which could be picked up
and thrown by the blade.
• Be sure the area is clear of other people
before mowing. Stop the machine if
anyone enters the area.
• Never carry passengers.
• Do not mow in reverse unless absolutely
necessary. Always look down and behind
before and while backing up.
• Be aware of the mower discharge
direction and do not point it at anyone.
Avoid discharging material against a wall
or obstruction. Material may ricochet back
toward the operator. Stop the blades
when crossing gravel surfaces.
• Do not operate the mower without either
the entire grass collection system or the
discharge deflector in place.
• Be alert, slow down and use caution when
making turns. Look behind and to the side
before changing directions.
• Never leave a running machine
unattended. Always turn off blades,
engage parking brake, stop engine, and
remove key before dismounting.
• Turn off blades when not mowing. Stop
the engine, wait for all parts to come to a
complete stop, engage parking brake, and
remove key before cleaning the machine,
removing the grass or unclogging the
deflector.
• Operate the machine only in daylight or
good artificial light.
• Do not operate the machine while under
the influence of alcohol or drugs.
• Watch for traffic when operating near or
crossing roadways.
• Use extra care when loading or unloading
the machine into a trailer or truck.
• Always wear eye protection when
operating the mower.
• Data indicates that operators, age 60
years and above, are involved in a large
percentage of riding mower-related
injuries. These operators should evaluate
their ability to operate the riding mower
safely enough to protect themselves and
others from serious injury.
• Always follow the recommendations for
wheel weights or counterweights.
6
Slope Operation
Slopes are a major factor related to loss of
control and tip-over accidents, which can
result in severe injury or death. Operation on
all slopes requires extra caution. If you
cannot back up the slope or if you feel uneasy
on it, do not mow it.
• Do not mow slopes greater than
15 degrees.
• Watch for ditches, holes, rocks, dips, and
rises that change the operating angle, as
rough terrain could overturn the machine.
• Choose a low ground speed so you will
not have to stop while operating on a
slope.
• Do not mow slopes when grass is wet.
Slippery conditions reduce traction and
could cause sliding and loss of control.
• Reduce speed and use extreme caution
on slopes.
• Do not make sudden turns or rapid speed
changes.
• Remove or mark obstacles such as rocks,
tree limbs, etc. from the mowing area. Tall
grass can hide obstacles.
• Avoid sudden starts when mowing uphill
because the mower may tip backwards.
• Be aware that loss of traction may occur
going downhill. Weight transfer to the front
wheels may cause drive wheels to slip
and cause loss of braking and steering.
• Always avoid sudden starting or stopping
on a slope. If tires lose traction, disengage
the blades and proceed slowly off the
slope.
• Use extreme care with grass collection
systems or other attachments. These can
change the stability of the machine and
cause loss of control.
• Do not try to stabilize the machine by
putting your foot on the ground.
• Do not mow near drop-offs, ditches, steep
banks or water. Wheels dropping over
edges can cause rollovers, which may
result in serious injury, death or drowning.
• Use a walk behind mower and/or a hand
trimmer near drop-offs, ditches, steep
banks or water.
Children
Tragic accidents can occur if the operator is
not alert to the presence of children. Children
are often attracted to the machine and the
mowing activity. Never assume that children
will remain where you last saw them.
• Keep children out of the mowing area and
under the watchful care of another
responsible adult, not the operator.
• Be alert and turn the machine off if
children enter the area.
• Before and while backing or changing
direction, look behind, down, and side-toside for small children.
• Never carry children, even with the blades
off. They may fall off and be seriously
injured or interfere with safe machine
operation.
• Children who have been given rides in the
past may suddenly appear in the mowing
area for another ride and be run over or
backed over by the mower.
• Never allow children to operate the
machine.
• Use extra care when approaching blind
corners, shrubs, trees, the end of a fence
or other objects that may obscure vision.
Towing
• This machine does not make any
provisions for towing.

Service
Safe Handling of Gasoline:
To avoid personal injury or property damage,
use extra care when handling gasoline and
other fuels. They are flammable and the
vapors are explosive.
• Extinguish all cigarettes, cigars, pipes and
other sources of ignition.
• Use only an approved container.
• Never remove the gas cap or add fuel
when the engine is running. Allow the
engine to cool before refueling.
• Never refuel the machine indoors.
• Never store the machine or fuel container
inside where there is an open flame, such
as near a water heater or furnace.
• Never fill containers inside a vehicle or on
a truck or trailer with a plastic liner.
Always place containers on the ground
away from your vehicle before filling.
• Remove gas-powered equipment from the
truck or trailer and refuel it on the ground.
If this is not possible, then refuel such
equipment with a portable container,
rather than from a gasoline dispenser
nozzle.
• Keep the nozzle in contact with the rim of
the fuel tank or container opening at all
times until the fueling is complete. Do not
use a nozzle lock-open device.
• If fuel is spilled on clothing, change
clothing immediately.
• Never overfill the fuel tank. Replace gas
cap and tighten securely.
General Service:
• Never run a machine inside a closed area.
• Keep nuts and bolts tight, especially the
blade attachment bolts. Keep equipment
in good condition.
• Never tamper with safety devices. Check
their proper operation regularly.
• Keep the machine free of grass, leaves, or
other debris build-up. Clean up oil or fuel
spillage and fuel soaked debris. Allow the
machine to cool before storing.
• Stop and inspect the equipment if you
strike an object. Repair, if necessary,
before restarting.
• Never make any adjustments or repairs
with the engine running.
• Grass collection system components are
subject to wear, damage and
deterioration, which could expose moving
parts or allow objects to be thrown.
Frequently check components and
replace with manufacturers’
recommended parts, when necessary.
• Mower blades are sharp and can cut.
Wrap the blades or wear gloves, and use
extra caution when servicing them.
• Check for proper brake operation
frequently. Adjust and service as
required.
• Maintain or replace safety and instruction
decals as necessary.
• Use only genuine Toro replacement parts
to ensure that original standards are

Ignition Switch
The ignition switch has three positions, Off,
Run and Start. The key will turn to Start and
move back to Run upon release. Turning the
key to the Off position will stop the engine;
however, always remove the key when
leaving the machine to prevent someone from
accidentally starting the engine (Figure 5).
Blade Control Switch (Power Take-Off)
The blade control switch, represented by a
power take-off (PTO) symbol, engages and
disengages power to the mower blades
(Figure 5).
Throttle Control
The throttle is used to control engine speed.
Moving throttle lever forward will increase
engine speed and moving throttle lever to the rear will decrease engine speed. Moving the
throttle forward into the detent is full throttle
(Figure 5).
Motion Control Levers and Parking
Brake
The motion control levers are speed sensitive
controls of independent wheel motors. Moving
a lever forward or backward turns the wheel on
the same side forward or in reverse; wheel
speed is proportional to the amount the lever is
moved. Moving the control levers outward from
the center position locks them in the neutral
position. Engaging the parking brake lever
allows the operator to exit the machine
(Figure 13). Always position the motion control
levers into the neutral position and engage the
park brake lever when you stop the machine or
leave it unattended.
Height-of-Cut Foot Lever
The height of cut lever allows the operator to
lower and raise the deck from the seated
position. When the lever is moved forward,
away from the operator the deck is raised from
the ground and when moved back, towards the
operator it is lowered toward the ground. Only
adjust the height of cut while machine is not
moving (Figure 14).
Choke Control
The choke is used to aid in starting a cold
engine. DO NOT run a warm engine with the
choke in the “ON” position. Moving the
choke lever forward will put the choke in the
“ON” position and moving the choke lever to
the rear will put the choke in the “OFF”
position (Figure 5).
