   Important: Ensure that the seat is secured with the seat latch.

4. To raise the roll bar, remove the hairpin cotter pins and remove the 2 pins (Figure 18).

5. Raise the roll bar to the upright position and install the 2 pins and secure them with the hairpin cotters (Figure 18).

Important: Always use the seat belt when the roll bar is in the raised and locked position. Do not use the seat belt when the roll bar is in the lowered position.

The throttle control regulates the engine speed as measured in rpm (revolutions per minute). Place the throttle control in the FAST position for best performance. Always operate the throttle in the FAST position when mowing.

To stop the machine, release the traction pedal to the NEUTRAL position.

Engage the parking brake whenever you leave the machine. Remove the key from the key switch.

The machine comes with a diagnostic light that indicates if the electronic controller senses an electronic malfunction. The diagnostic light is located on the control panel (Figure 21). When the electronic controller is functioning correctly and the key switch is moved to the ON position, the controller diagnostic light will turn on for 3 seconds and turn off to indicate that the light is working properly. If the engine shuts off, the light will turn on steady until you change the key position. The light blinks if the controller detects a malfunction in the electrical system. The light stops blinking and automatically resets when you turn the key switch to the OFF position when the fault has been resolved.

Figure 21

1. Diagnostic light

When the controller diagnostic light blinks, 1 of the following problems has been detected by the controller:

• An output has been shorted.

• An output has an open circuit.

Use the diagnostic display to determine which output is malfunctioning; refer to Checking the Interlock Switches.

If the diagnostic light does not come on when the key switch is in the ON position, this indicates that the electronic controller is not operating. Possible causes are as follows:

• The light is burned out.

• The fuses are blown.

• The electronic controller is not functioning correctly.

Check the electrical connections, input fuses, and diagnostic light bulb to determine the malfunction. Ensure that the loop-back connector is secured to the wire-harness connector.

The machine comes with an electronic controller which controls most of the machine functions. The controller determines what function is required for various input switches (e.g., seat switch and key switch) and turns on the outputs to actuate solenoids or relays for the requested machine function.

For the electronic controller to control the machine as desired, each of the input switches, output solenoids, and relays must be connected and functioning properly.

Use the Diagnostic ACE display tool and overlay to help verify and correct electrical functions of the machine. Contact your Toro Distributor for assistance.

The interlock switches prevent the engine from cranking or starting unless the traction pedal is in the NEUTRAL position and the PTO is disengaged. The engine should stop when you press the traction pedal when you are not sitting on the seat or if the parking brake is engaged.

The height-of-cut is adjusted from 2.5 to 15.8 cm (1 to 6 inches) in 6 mm (1/4 inch) increments by relocating the stop pin into different hole locations.

1. With the engine running, push back the deck-lift switch until the mower deck is fully raised and release the switch immediately (Figure 26).

2. Rotate the stop pin until the nub on it lines up with the slots in the holes in the height-of-cut bracket and remove it (Figure 26).

3. Select a hole in the height-of-cut bracket corresponding to the height-of-cut desired, insert the pin, and rotate it down to lock it in place (Figure 26).

   Note: There are 4 rows of hole positions (Figure 26). The top row gives you the height of cut listed above the pin. The second row down gives you the height listed plus 6 mm (1/4 inch). The third row down gives you the height listed plus 12 mm (1/2 inch). The bottom row gives you the height listed plus 18 mm (3/4 inch). For the 15.8 cm (6 inch) position, there is only 1 hole, located in the second row. This does not add 6 mm (1/4 inch) to the 15.8 cm (6 inch) position.

   

   Figure 26

The machine has grease fittings that you must lubricate regularly with No. 2 lithium grease. Lubricate the grease fittings immediately after every washing, regardless of interval specified.

1. Wipe the grease fittings clean so that foreign matter cannot be forced into the bearing or bushing (Figure 33).

2. Pump the grease into the fittings.

3. Wipe off any excess grease.

Figure 32

Shown with mower deck installed

Note: To access the grease fittings for the rear-steering linkage, remove the storage compartment.

Note: Raise the machine off the floor with a jack and secure it with jack stands to allow better grease migration through both the upper and lower king-pin bushings. You should see grease purging out of both the top and the bottom of the axle casting/bushing assembly areas of all 4 kingpin assemblies (Figure 34).

Figure 33

Note: The bearing life can be negatively affected by improper washing procedures. Do not wash the machine when it is still hot and avoid directing high-pressure or high-volume spray at the bearings or seals.

Check the air-cleaner body for damage that could cause an air leak. Replace a damaged air cleaner. Check the whole intake system for leaks, damage, or loose hose clamps.

Service the air-cleaner filter only when the service indicator (Figure 34) requires it. Changing the air filter before it is necessary only increases the chance of dirt entering the engine when you remove the filter.

Important: Be sure that the cover is seated correctly and seals with the air-cleaner body.

1. Release the latch securing the air-cleaner cover to the air-cleaner body (Figure 34).

   

   Figure 34

   1. Air-cleaner-service indicator
   2. Air-cleaner cover
   3. Air-cleaner-cover latch

2. Remove the cover from the air-cleaner body. Before removing the filter, use clear and dry low-pressure air (276 kPa or 40 psi) to help remove large accumulations of debris packed between outside of the filter and the canister. Avoid using high-pressure air, which could force dirt through the filter into the intake tract.

   Note: This cleaning process prevents debris from migrating into the intake when you remove the filter.

3. Remove and replace the filter.

   Important: Do not clean the used element to prevent damaging the filter media. Inspect the new filter for shipping damage, checking the sealing end of the filter and the body. Do not use a damaged element. Insert the new filter by applying pressure to the outer rim of the element to seat it in the canister. Do not apply pressure to the flexible center of the filter.

4. Clean the dirt-ejection port located in the removable cover.

5. Remove the rubber outlet valve from the cover, clean the cavity and replace the outlet valve.

6. Install the cover orienting the rubber outlet valve in a downward position—approximately between the 5 o’clock to 7 o’clock positions when viewed from the end.

7. Secure the latch.

The engine is shipped with oil in the crankcase; however, check the oil level before and after you start the engine for the first time.

The crankcase capacity is approximately 5.2 L (5.5 US qt) with the filter.

Use high-quality engine oil that meets the following specifications:

• API Classification Level Required: CH-4, CI-4 or higher

• Preferred oil: SAE 15W-40 (above 0°F)

• Alternate oil: SAE 10W-30 or 5W-30 (all temperatures)

Toro Premium Engine Oil is available from your distributor in either 15W-40 or 10W-30 viscosity.

1. Perform the pre-maintenance procedure; refer to Preparing the Machine for Maintenance.

2. Open the hood.

You must bleed the fuel system before starting the engine if any of the following have occurred:

• Initial start up of a new machine

• The engine has ceased running due to lack of fuel.

• Maintenance has been performed upon fuel system components (i.e., filter replaced, separator serviced, etc.)

1. Perform the pre-maintenance procedure; refer to Checking the Tire Pressure and ensure that the fuel tank is at least half full.

2. Open the hood and secure it with the prop rod.

3. Open the air-bleed screw on the fuel-injection pump (Figure 39) with a 12 mm wrench.

   

   Figure 39

   1. Bleed screw

4. Turn the key in the ignition switch to the ON position. The electric fuel pump will begin operation, thereby forcing air out around the air bleed screw. Leave the key in the ON position until a solid stream of fuel flows out around the screw.

5. Tighten the screw and turn the key to the OFF position.

Note: The engine should start after you perform this procedure. However, if engine does not start, air may be trapped between injection pump and the injectors; refer to Bleeding Air from the Fuel Injectors.

Note: Use this procedure only if the fuel system has been purged of air through normal priming procedures and the engine does not start; refer to Bleeding the Fuel System.

1. Loosen the pipe connection to the No. 1 nozzle and holder assembly (Figure 40).

   

   Figure 40

   1. Fuel injectors

2. Turn the key in the key switch to the ON position and watch the fuel flow around the connector. When you observe a solid flow of fuel, turn the key to the OFF position.

3. Tighten the pipe connector securely.

4. Repeat steps 1 through 3 for the remaining nozzles.

Drain and clean the fuel tank every 2 years. Also, remove and clean the in-line strainers after draining the tank. Use clean diesel fuel to flush out the tank.

Important: Drain and clean the tank if the fuel system becomes contaminated or if you store the machine for an extended period of time.

Inspect the fuel lines for deterioration, damage, chaffing, or loose connections.

Keep the top of the battery clean. If you store the machine 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.

Keep the top of the battery clean by washing it periodically with a brush dipped in ammonia or bicarbonate of soda solution. Flush the top surface with water after cleaning it. Do not remove the fill caps while cleaning the battery.

The battery cables must be tight on the terminals to provide good electrical contact.

If corrosion occurs at the terminals, disconnect the cables, negative (-) cable first, and scrape the clamps and terminals separately. Connect the cables, positive (+) cable first, and coat the terminals with petroleum jelly.

If you store the machine for more than 30 days, remove the battery and charge it fully. Either store it on a shelf or on the machine. Leave the cables disconnected if you store it on the machine. Store the battery in a cool atmosphere to avoid quick deterioration of the charge in the battery. To prevent the battery from freezing, ensure that it is fully charged. The specific gravity of a fully charged battery is 1.265 to 1.299.

If the machine stops or has other electrical-system issues, check the fuses. Grasp each fuse in turn and remove them 1 at a time, checking to see if any are blown. If you need to replace a fuse, always use the same type and amperage rated fuse as the 1 you are replacing; otherwise, you could damage the electrical system (refer to the decal next to the fuses for a diagram of each fuse and its amperage).

The traction-unit fuses are located under the seat (Figure 41).

Figure 41

1. Location of the fuse block

The cab fuses are located in the fuse box on the cab headliner (Figure 42).

Maintain the air pressure in the front and rear tires. The correct air pressure is 172 kPa (25 psi) in the rear tires and 103 kPa (15 psi) in the front tires. If a cab is installed on the machine, the front and rear tires should be inflated to 172 kPa (25 psi). Uneven tire pressure can cause an uneven cut. Check the tires when they are cold to get the most accurate pressure reading.

Keep the radiator clean to prevent the engine from overheating.

Note: If the attachment or engine shuts off due to overheating, first check the radiator for an excessive buildup of debris.

1. Open the hood and secure the prop rod.

2. Loosen the flange nut securing the clean-out cover to the underside of the rear frame (Figure 46). Rotate the cover to the side to expose the clean-out hole in the frame.

   

   Figure 46

   1. Clean-out cover

3. Working from the fan side of the radiator, blow out debris with low-pressure (50 psi) compressed air (do not use water). Repeat this step from the front of the radiator, again from the fan side.

4. After you have thoroughly cleaned the radiator, remove any debris from the channel at the radiator base and around the frame.

5. Clean the engine compartment and the brake linkage.

6. Close the clean-out cover and secure the flange nut.

7. Close the hood.

Adjust the service brakes when there is more than 25 mm (1 inch) of free travel of the brake pedal, or when the brakes do not work effectively. Free travel is the distance that the brake pedal moves before you feel braking resistance.

Note: Use the wheel-motor backlash to rock the drums back and forth to ensure that the drums are free prior to and after adjustment.

1. To reduce free travel of the brake pedals, tighten the brakes by loosening the front nut on the threaded end of the brake cable (Figure 47).

   

   Figure 47

   1. Brake cables
