Safety

The SAND PRO 2000 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, 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. Carbon monoxide is
also known to cause birth defects. Do not run the engine
indoors or in an enclosed area.

BEFORE OPERATING

1. Operate the machine only after reading and under-

standing the contents of this manual.

2. Never allow children to operate the machine or

adults to operate it without proper instructions.

8. Keep everyone, especially children and pets away

from the areas of operation.

9. Since gasoline is highly flammable, handle it care-

fully.

A. Use an approved gasoline container.
B. Do not remove the cap from the fuel tank when

the engine is hot or running.

C. Do not smoke while handling gasoline.
D. Fill the fuel tank outdoors and to about one

inch below the top of the tank, (bottom of filler
neck). Do not overfill.

E. Wipe up any spilled gasoline.

10. Check the safety interlock system daily for proper

operation. If the switch should malfunction, replace
it before operating the machine. (After every two
years, replace the interlock switch in the safety sys­tem, whether it is working properly or not.)

WHILE OPERATING

3. Become familiar with the controls and know how to

stop the engine quickly.

4. 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.

5. Always wear substantial shoes. Do not operate

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 the traction interlock switch is adjusted cor-

rectly so the engine cannot be started unless the trac­tion pedal is released and in neutral position.

11. Exhaust fumes are hazardous and could be deadly,

so do not run the engine in a confined area without
adequate ventilation.

12. Sit on 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 your foot off

the traction pedal. Machine must not move. If
movement is evident, the neutral return bracket
is adjusted incorrectly; therefore, shut the
engine off and readjust bracket so machine does
not move when in neutral position. If the engine
does not start, check interlock switch for proper
adjustment.

14. Using the machine demands attention. To prevent
tipping or loss of control:

3

A. Use care when entering and leaving sand traps.

Use extreme caution around ditches, creeks or
other hazards.

21. Make sure all hydraulic line connectors are tight,and

all hydraulic hoses and lines are in good condition
before applying pressure to the system.

B. Watch for holes or other hidden hazards.
C. Use caution when operating machine on a steep

slope. Reduce speed when making sharp turns
or when turning on hillsides.

D. Avoid sudden stops and starts. Do not go from

reverse to full forward without first coming to a
complete stop.

E. Before backing up, look to the rear and assure

no one is behind the machine.

F. Watch out for traffic when near of crossing

roads. Always yield the right of way.

15. If optional Hitch Kit, model 08833, is installed on

machine, vertical load on hitch should not exceed
200 lbs.

16. Do not touch the engine, muffler or exhaust pipe

while the engine is running or soon after it has
stopped because these areas are hot enough to cause
burns.

17. If the machine ever vibrates abnormally, stop imme-

diately, turn the engine off, wait for all motion to
stop and inspect for damage. Repair all damage
before commencing operation.

18. Before getting off the seat:

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.

24. To make sure entire machine is in good condition,

keep all nuts, bolts and screws properly tightened.

25. If major repairs are ever needed or assistance is

required, contact an Authorized TORO Distributor.

26. To reduce potential fire hazard, keep the engine area

free of excessive grease, grass, leaves and accumula­tion of dirt.

27. If the engine must be running to perform a mainte-

nance adjustment, keep hands, feet, clothing, and
any parts of the body away from the engine and any
moving parts. Keep everyone away.

A. Stop movement of the machine. Take precau-

tions to prevent accidental starts, rolling away,
etc.

B. Shut the engine off and wait for all movement

to stop.

19. Whenever machine is left unattended, be sure the

engine is stopped, implement is lowered and the key
is removed from ignition.

MAINTENANCE

20. Before servicing or making adjustments to the

machine, stop the engine and pull the spark plug
wire off spark plug to prevent accidental starting of
the engine.

28. Do not overspeed the engine by changing governor

settings. Maximum engine speed is 3000 rpm. To
assure safety and accuracy, have an Authorized Toro
Distributor check maximum engine speed with a
tachometer.

29. Engine must be shut off before checking oil or

adding oil to the crankcase.

30. To be sure of optimum performance and safety,

always purchase genuine TORO replacement parts
and accessories. Replacement parts and accessories
made by other manufacturers could be dangerous.
Such use could void the product warranty of The
Toro Company.

Before Operating

CAUTION

Before servicing or making adjustments to the machine, stop the
engine, pull wires off the spark plugs and remove the key from the
switch.

CHECK CRANKCASE OIL (Fig. 1)

The engine is shipped with oil in the crankcase; however, check the
level before and after the engine is first started.

Crankcase capacity is approximately 2.48 l.

1. Position the machine on a level surface.

2. Remove the dipstick and wipe it with a clean cloth. Push the

dipstick down into the dipstick tube and make sure it is seated
fully. Pull the dipstick out and check the level of oil.

3. If the oil level is low, add enough oil to raise the level to the

FULL mark on the dipstick. Use oil having the APl “service
classification” SF. Oil viscosity—weight—is selected accord­ing to anticipated ambient temperature. Temperature/ viscosity
recommendations are:

A. Above 32° F (0° C)Use SAE 30. The use of multi-weight

oil above 32° F (0° C) is not recommended due to
increased oil consumption and excessive combustion
chamber deposits.

B. Below 32° F (0° C)Use SAE 5W-2O or 5W-30, and if

they are not available, 10W-30 or 10W-40 are acceptable
substitutes.

IMPORTANT: Check the level of oil every 5 operating
hours or daily. Change the oil after every 50 hours of oper­ation.
