Adjusting the Clip-Control Feature

Understanding the Radius-Dependent-Speed (RDS) System

To achieve a consistent, high quality-of-cut and a uniform after cut appearance, the machine is equipped with the patent-pending Radius Dependent Speed™ (RDS) system. The RDS system is a clip-control and independent wheel-speed feature that varies the speeds of each reel motor and each traction motor to maintain a constant clip and reduce turf scrubbing in turns while cutting.

When the machine is turning while cutting (e.g., during the clean-up pass), the reel on the inside of the turn will rotate at a slower rpm than the reel on the outside of the turn. The center reel splits the difference of the inside and outside reel speeds so that all three cutting units have the same clip. The sharper the turn, the greater the difference in reel speeds. Additionally, if the machine speed changes while you are cutting, the RDS system adjusts the reel speed to maintain a constant clip. This feature reduces turf thinning on the inside reel (in comparison to other riding greens mowers), which can reduce triplex ring.

The RDS system also adjusts each wheel-motor speed during a turn, similar to the reel-motor speeds changing in a turn. The inside wheel motor will turn at a slower rpm than the outside wheel motor. This minimizes wheel scrubbing in the turn and can reduce triplex ring.

Setting the Clip-Control Feature

Navigate to the CLIP CONTROL option to set the RDS system feature.

  • Clip control set to ON: The machine uses your settings from the HEIGHT OF CUT (HOC) and BLADE COUNT options and the left and right wheel speeds to determine the speed of each reel.

  • Clip control set to OFF: The machine uses your setting from the REEL SPEED option. The reels rotate at a constant rate.

Note: The factory default setting is ON.

Adjusting the Height of Cut (HOC)

Navigate to the HEIGHT OF CUT (HOC) option to adjust the height of cut. The clip control feature must be set to ON to use this feature; refer to Setting the Clip-Control Feature.

Note: The factory default setting is 3.2 mm (0.125 inch).

Adjusting the Number of Cutting-Unit Blades

Navigate to the BLADE COUNT option to adjust the number of cutting-unit blades. Determine the number of blades in your equipped cutting units, and select the appropriate value (5, 8, 11, or 14).

Note: The factory default setting is 11.

Adjusting the Maximum Mowing Speed

Navigate to the MAX MOW option to adjust the maximum mowing speed. You can adjust the speed from 4.8 km/h (3.0 mph) to 8.0 km/h (5.0 mph) in increments of 0.3 km/h (0.2 mph).

Note: The factory default setting is 6.1 km/h (3.8 mph).

Adjusting the Maximum Transport Speed

Navigate to the MAX TRANSPORT option to adjust the maximum transport speed. You can adjust the speed from 8.0 km/h (5.0 mph) to 16.0 km/h (10.0 mph) in increments of 0.8 km/h (0.5 mph).

Note: The factory default setting is 16.0 km/h (10.0 mph).

Adjusting the Maximum Reverse Speed

Navigate to the MAX REVERSE option to adjust the maximum reverse speed. You can adjust the speed from 3.2 km/h (2.0 mph) to 4.8 km/h (3.0 mph) in increments of 0.8 km/h (0.5 mph).

Note: The factory default setting is 4.0 km/h (2.5 mph).

Setting the Slow and Turn Function

Navigate to the SLOW & TURN option to set the slow and turn function. The slow and turn function slows the machine speed while you turn the machine for another cutting pass on a green.

Note: The factory default setting is OFF.

Disabling an Equipped 3-Wheel-Drive Kit

Navigate to the 3WD KIT option to disable an equipped 3-Wheel-Drive Kit.

If you choose to disable this option, the kit will be enabled again if you cycle the key switch (i.e., turn off, then turn on the machine) with an equipped 3-Wheel-Drive Kit.

Note: When you install the 3-Wheel-Drive Kit, the kit is automatically enabled.

Performing Daily Maintenance

Maintenance Service IntervalMaintenance Procedure
Before each use or daily
  • Inspect the seat belt(s) for wear, cuts, and other damage. Replace the seat belt(s) if any component does not operate properly.
  • Before turning on the machine each day, perform the following procedures:

    During Operation

    During Operation Safety

    General Safety

    • The owner/operator can prevent and is responsible for accidents that may cause personal injury or property damage.

    • Wear appropriate clothing, including eye protection; long pants; substantial, slip-resistant footwear, and hearing protection. Tie back long hair and do not wear loose clothing or loose jewelry.

    • Do not operate the machine while ill, tired, or under the influence of alcohol or drugs.

    • Use your full attention while operating the machine. Do not engage in any activity that causes distractions; otherwise, injury or property damage may occur.

    • Before you turn on the machine, ensure that all drives are in neutral, the parking brake is engaged, and you are in the operating position.

    • Do not carry passengers on the machine.

    • Keep bystanders and children out of the operating area. If co-workers must be present, use caution and ensure that the grass baskets are installed on the machine.

    • Operate the machine only in good visibility to avoid holes or hidden hazards.

    • Avoid mowing on wet grass. Reduced traction could cause the machine to slide.

    • Keep your hands and feet away from the cutting units.

    • Look behind and down before backing up to be sure of a clear path.

    • Use care when approaching blind corners, shrubs, trees, or other objects that may obscure your vision.

    • Stop the cutting units whenever you are not mowing.

    • Slow down and use caution when making turns and crossing roads and sidewalks with the machine. Always yield the right-of-way.

    • Do not leave an activated machine unattended.

    • Before you leave the operating position, do the following:

      • Park the machine on a level surface.

      • Lower the cutting units to the ground and ensure that they are disengaged.

      • Engage the parking brake.

      • Shut off the machine and remove the key.

      • Wait for all movement to stop.

    • Operate the machine only in good visibility and appropriate weather conditions. Do not operate the machine when there is the risk of lightning.

    Rollover Protection System (ROPS) Safety

    • Do not remove any of the ROPS components from the machine.

    • Ensure that the seat belt is attached and that you can release it quickly in an emergency.

    • Always wear your seat belt.

    • Check carefully for overhead obstructions and do not contact them.

    • Keep the ROPS in safe operating condition by thoroughly inspecting it periodically for damage and keeping all the mounting fasteners tight.

    • Replace all damaged ROPS components. Do not repair or alter them.

    Slope Safety

    • Slopes are a major factor related to loss of control and rollover accidents, which can result in severe injury or death. You are responsible for safe slope operation. Operating the machine on any slope requires extra caution.

    • Evaluate the site conditions to determine if the slope is safe for machine operation, including surveying the site. Always use common sense and good judgment when performing this survey.

    • Review the slope instructions, listed below, for operating the machine on slopes. Before you operate the machine, review the site conditions to determine whether you can operate the machine in the conditions on that day and at that site. Changes in the terrain can result in a change in slope operation for the machine.

    • Avoid starting, stopping, or turning the machine on slopes. Avoid making sudden changes in speed or direction. Make turns slowly and gradually.

    • Do not operate a machine under any conditions where traction, steering, or stability is in question.

    • Remove or mark obstructions such as ditches, holes, ruts, bumps, rocks, or other hidden hazards. Tall grass can hide obstructions. Uneven terrain could overturn the machine.

    • Be aware that operating the machine on wet grass, across slopes, or downhill may cause the machine to lose traction. Loss of traction to the drive wheels may result in sliding and a loss of braking and steering.

    • Use extreme caution when operating the machine near drop-offs, ditches, embankments, water hazards, or other hazards. The machine could suddenly roll over if a wheel goes over the edge or the edge caves in. Establish a safety area between the machine and any hazard.

    • Identify hazards at the base of the slope. If there are hazards, mow the slope with a pedestrian-controlled machine.

    • If possible, keep the cutting units lowered to the ground while operating on slopes. Raising the cutting units while operating on slopes can cause the machine to become unstable.

    • Use extreme caution with grass-collection systems or other attachments. These can change the stability of the machine and cause a loss of control.

    Breaking in the Machine

    8 hours of operation is required for the break-in period.

    Since the first hours of operation are critical to future dependability of the machine, monitor its functions and performance closely so that minor difficulties, which could lead to major problems, are noted and can be corrected. Inspect the machine frequently during break-in for signs of loose fasteners or any other malfunction.

    Turning On the Machine

    Note: Inspect the areas beneath the cutting units to ensure that they are clear of debris.

    1. Sit in the operator’s seat and fasten the seatbelt.

    2. Insert the key into the switch and move it to the ON position.

    Checking the Machine after Turning On the Machine

    1. Move the function-control switch to the MOW position.

    2. Disengage the parking brake.

    3. Move the lift/lower joystick forward momentarily.

      The cutting units should lower and all the reels should rotate.

    4. Move the lift/lower joystick rearward.

      The cutting reels should stop rotating and the cutting units should raise to the full transport position.

    Understanding the Safety-Interlock System

    Maintenance Service IntervalMaintenance Procedure
    Before each use or daily
  • Check the safety-interlock system.
  • Caution

    If the safety interlock switches are disconnected or damaged the machine could operate unexpectedly, causing personal injury.

    • Do not tamper with the interlock switches.

    • Check the operation of the interlock switches daily and replace any damaged switches before operating the machine.

    The purpose of the safety-interlock system is to prevent operation of the machine where there is possible injury to you or damage to the machine.

    The safety-interlock system prevents the machine from moving unless:

    • The parking brake is disengaged.

    • You are seated in the operator's seat.

    • The function-control switch is in the MOW position or the TRANSPORT position.

    Additionally, the safety-interlock system prevents the reels from operating unless the function-control switch is in the MOW position (except when the machine is in Backlap Mode).

    Checking the Safety-Interlock System

    Perform the following steps to check the interlock system:

    • Rise from the seat, turn on the machine, disengage the parking brake, move the function-control switch to the MOW or TRANSPORT position, and engage the traction pedal.

      The machine should not move, as you are not in the seat. This indicates that the interlock system is operating correctly. Correct the problem if it is not operating properly.

    • Sit in the seat, turn on the machine, engage the parking brake, move the function-control switch to the MOW or TRANSPORT position, and engage the traction pedal.

      The machine should not move, as the parking brake is engaged. This indicates that the interlock system is operating correctly. Correct the problem if it is not operating properly.

    • Sit in the seat, turn on the machine, disengage the parking brake, move the function-control switch to the NEUTRAL position, and engage the traction pedal.

      The machine should not move, as the function-control switch is in the NEUTRAL position. This indicates that the interlock system is operating correctly. Correct the problem if it is not operating properly.

    • Sit on the seat, move the traction pedal to the NEUTRAL position, move the function-control switch to the NEUTRAL position, engage the parking brake, turn on the machine, and move the lift/lower joystick forward to lower the cutting units.

      The cutting units should lower but not start rotating. If they start rotating, the interlock system is not operating correctly; correct the problem before operating the machine.

    Driving the Machine without Mowing

    • Ensure that the cutting units are fully raised.

    • Sit in the seat, fasten the seat belt, disengage the parking brake, and move the function-control switch to the TRANSPORT position to drive the machine without mowing.

    • Always approach irregular areas at a reduced speed and cross severe undulations carefully.

    • Familiarize yourself with the width of the machine. Do not attempt to pass between objects that are close together to prevent costly damage and downtime.

    Mowing the Green

    Before mowing greens, find a clear area and practice performing basic machine functions (e.g., turning on and stopping the machine, raising and lowering the cutting units, and turning).

    Inspect the green for debris, remove anything that may damage the cutting units while mowing, remove the flag from the cup, and determine the best direction to mow. Base the direction to mow on the previous mowing direction. Always mow in an alternate pattern from the previous mowing so that the grass blades are less apt to lay down and will have a greater chance of being cut.

    Cutting the Green

    1. Start on 1 edge of the green so that you can use the ribbon procedure of cutting.

      Note: This holds compaction to a minimum and leaves a neat, attractive pattern on the greens.

    2. Move the function-control switch to the MOW position.

    3. Push forward the lift/lower mow lever as the front edges of the grass baskets cross the outer edge of the green.

      Note: This procedure drops the cutting units to the turf and starts the reels.

      Important: The center cutting unit lifts or lowers slightly after the front cutting units do; therefore, you should practice gaining the required timing necessary to minimize the cleanup mowing operation and prevent scalping of the fringe.The center cutting unit lift and lower is based on ground speed. A slower ground speed increases the lift or lower delay; a faster speed decreases the lift or lower delay. The machine monitors the ground speed and updates this delay so that all three cutting units drop in a line.

    4. Overlap a minimal amount with the previous cut on return passes.

      Note: To assist in maintaining a straight line across the green and keeping the machine an equal distance from the edge of the previous cut, imagine a sight line approximately 1.8 to 3 m (6 to 10 ft) ahead of the machine to the edge of the uncut portion of the green (Figure 30). Include the outer edge of the steering wheel as part of the sight line; i.e., keep the steering wheel edge aligned with a point that is always kept the same distance away from the front of the machine.

    5. As the front edges of the baskets cross the edge of the green, pull back the lift/lower joystick rearward and hold it until all the cutting units have risen. This stops the reels and lifts the cutting units.

      Important: Time this step correctly so that you do not cut into the fringe area, yet cut as much of the green as possible to minimize the amount of grass left to mow around the outer periphery.

    6. To cut down on operating time and to ease the lineup for the next pass, momentarily turn the machine in the opposite direction, then turn it in the direction of the uncut portion. This movement is a tear-shaped turn (Figure 29), which quickly lines the machine up for your next pass.

      Note: If the Slow and Turn function is engaged, the machine slows down during the turn without requiring you to release pressure on the traction pedal.

      g229671

      Note: Try to make as short of a turn as possible, except during warmer weather—a wider arc minimizes the turf bruising.

      g005116

      Important: Never stop the machine on a green, especially while the cutting units are engaged; damage to the turf may result. Stopping the machine on a green may leave marks or indentations from the wheels.

    Cutting the Periphery and Finishing the Job

    1. Finish cutting the green by mowing the outer periphery. Change the direction of cutting from the previous mowing.

      Refer to Understanding the Radius-Dependent-Speed (RDS) System to improve the after-cut appearance and reduce triplex ring.

      Note: Always keep weather and turf conditions in mind and be sure to change the direction of mowing from the previous cutting.

    2. When you finish mowing the outer periphery, tap the lift/lower joystick rearward to stop the reels (if the tap-off delay feature is engaged), then drive off the green. When all the cutting units are off the green, move the lift/lower joystick rearward to raise the cutting units.

      Note: This step minimizes grass clumps left on the green.

    3. Replace the flag.

    4. Empty the grass baskets of all clippings before you transport the machine to the next green.

      Note: Heavy wet clippings cause strain on the baskets, suspensions, and actuators. This adds unnecessary weight to the machine, which decreases energy efficiency.

    Monitoring the Battery-System Charge Level

    Refer to the main information screen in the InfoCenter to determine the battery-system charge level; refer to Using the InfoCenter LCD Display.

    Understanding the Low Battery-Level Advisories

    • When the battery level reaches a low percentage, an low-battery advisory appears on the InfoCenter. When you are operating at this battery percentage, finish cutting the current green, then transport the machine to a designated battery-charging area and charge the batteries; refer to Charging the Lithium-Ion Batteries.

    • If the battery level becomes too low (i.e., below 10%) while you are operating the machine, an advisory appears on the InfoCenter. While you are operating at this battery percentage, you can only transport the machine at a slower speed; the cutting units cannot be engaged. Transport your machine to a designated battery-charging area and charge the batteries; refer to Charging the Lithium-Ion Batteries.

    Shutting Off the Machine

    1. Transport the machine to a level surface.

    2. Move the function-control switch to the NEUTRAL position.

    3. Engage the parking brake.

    4. Rotate the key to the OFF position to shut off the machine.

    5. Remove the key.

    After Operation

    After Operation Safety

    • Do not get the charger wet; keep it protected from rain and snow.

    • A risk of fire, electric shock, or injury may result from using an accessory not recommended or sold by Toro.

    • To reduce risk of a battery explosion, follow these instructions and the instructions for any equipment that you intend to use near the charger.

    • Batteries could emit explosive gasses if they are significantly overcharged.

    • Do not open batteries.

    • In the event that a battery leaks, avoid contact with the liquid. If you accidentally come into contact with the liquid, flush with water and seek medical help. Liquid ejected from the battery may cause irritation or burns.

    • Refer to an authorized Toro distributor to service or replace a battery.

    Training

    • Never allow children or untrained people to operate or service the charger. Local regulations may restrict the age of the operator. The owner is responsible for training all operators and mechanics.

    • Read, understand, and follow all instructions on the charger and in the manual before operating the charger. Be familiar with the proper use of the charger.

    Preparation

    • Keep bystanders and children away while charging.

    • Wear appropriate clothing while charging, including eye protection; long pants; and substantial, slip-resistant footwear.

    • Shut off the machine and wait 5 seconds until the machine has completely powered down before charging. Failure to do this may cause arcing.

    • Ensure that the area is well ventilated while charging.

    • Read and follow all precautions for charging.

    • The charger is for use only on nominal 120 and 240 VAC circuits, and is equipped with a grounding plug for 120 VAC operation. For use with 240 V circuits, contact your authorized Toro distributor for the correct power cord.

    Operation

    • Do not abuse the cord. Do not carry the charger by the cord or yank on the power supply cord to disconnect the charger from the receptacle. Keep the cord from heat, oil, and sharp edges.

    • Connect the charger directly to a grounding (3-prong) receptacle. Do not use the charger on an ungrounded outlet, even with an adaptor.

    • Do not alter the provided power cord or plug.

    • Avoid dropping a metal tool near or onto a battery; it might cause a spark or short-circuit an electrical part that could lead to an explosion.

    • Remove metal items such as rings, bracelets, necklaces, and watches when working with a lithium-ion battery. A lithium-ion battery can produce enough current to cause a severe burn.

    • Never operate the charger without good visibility or light.

    • Use an appropriate extension cord.

    • If the power supply cord is damaged while it is plugged in, disconnect the cord from the wall receptacle and contact an authorized Toro distributor for a replacement.

    • Unplug the charger from the electrical outlet when not in use, before moving it to another location, or prior to servicing it.

    Maintenance and Storage

    Inspecting and Cleaning after Mowing

    Maintenance Service IntervalMaintenance Procedure
    Before each use or daily
  • Inspect and cleanup after mowing.
  • After mowing, thoroughly wash the machine with a garden hose without a nozzle so that excessive water pressure does not contaminate and damage the seals, bearings, and electronics. Do not wash the electrical connections with water.

    Important: Do not use brackish or reclaimed water to clean the machine.

    Important: Do not use power-washing equipment to wash the machine. Power-washing equipment may damage the electrical system, loosen important decals, or wash away necessary grease at friction points. It may force water under seals, contaminating oil or grease contained housings. Avoid excessive use of water near the control panel and batteries.

    Inspect the cutting units for sharpness after you clean the machine.

    Hauling the Machine

    • Use care when loading or unloading the machine into a trailer or a truck.

    • Use a full-width ramp for loading the machine into a trailer or a truck.

    • Tie the machine down securely using straps, chains, cable, or ropes. Both front and rear straps should be directed down and outward from the machine (Figure 31).

      g292693

    Towing the Machine

    Note: Refer to Figure 32 for this procedure.

    g267401

    To tow the machine, you must perform the following procedure to release the brake actuator:

    1. Engage the parking brake.

    2. Remove the key and disconnect the main-power connectors.

      Important: If the main-power connectors are connected while towing, electrical damage may result.

    3. If the 3-Wheel Drive Kit is installed, disconnect the kit-wire-harness connectors from the main wire harness.

      Important: If the kit and machine wire harnesses are connected while towing, electrical damage may result.

    4. Chock both sides of the front tires.

    5. Release tension on the spring by loosening the nut that secures the eyebolt to the spring bracket (Figure 32).

    6. Remove the spring.

    7. Insert a ratchet (3/8 inch) through the hole of the arm bracket and push in the actuator shaft.

      Danger

      When the actuator is released from the brake, the machine is able to free wheel. A free-wheeling machine can cause serious injury to bystanders.

      If the machine is not being towed, engage the parking brake.

    8. Have an assistant sit in the seat, fasten the seatbelt, and use the brake while you tow the machine.

      Note: This ensures that the machine is under control when you tow the machine.

    9. Remove the chocks from the tires.

    10. When the machine is ready to be towed, disengage the parking brake.

    11. Use the rear castor fork to tow the machine (Figure 33).

      Important: Do not exceed 5 km/h (3 mph) while towing the machine. Damage to the electrical components may result.

      g270135

    After you have towed the machine to your intended destination, perform the following steps:

    1. Engage the parking brake.

    2. Remove the tow strap from the castor fork.

    3. Install the spring as shown in Figure 32.

    4. Tighten the eyebolt nut so that the spring length is 11.4 cm (4.5 inches) when installed (Figure 32).

    Maintaining the Lithium-Ion Batteries

    Warning

    The batteries contain high voltage, which could burn or electrocute you.

    • Do not attempt to open the batteries.

    • Use extreme care when handling a battery with a cracked case.

    • Use only the charger designed for the batteries (Model 04012).

    The lithium-ion batteries hold a sufficient charge to perform intended work during its life span. During the first 4 years of operation, the total area that you can cut per a single full charge is 13,006 m2 (140,000 ft2). This performance is based on the following conditions:

    • Your reel blades and bedknives are sharp.

    • The bedknife and reel contact is adjusted per the Operator's Manual.

    • The groomer is set at half of the height of cut or higher.

    • The rear roller brushes are set to the lightest contact.

    • 8 miles of transport distance is needed.

    • The golf course that you perform work on is lightly undulated.

    As time goes by, the total amount of work that the batteries are able to complete on a single charge gradually diminishes.

    Note: Your results may vary depending on the distance that you need to transport the machine, the undulations that you travel across, the contact setting and sharpness of the bedknife and reel, and other factors as discussed in this section.

    To achieve maximum life and use from your batteries, follow these guidelines:

    • Do not open the battery. There are no user serviceable parts inside. If you open the pack, you will void your warranty . The batteries are protected by tamper-alerting devices.

    • Store/park the machine in a clean, dry garage or storage area, away from direct sunlight, heat sources, rain, and wet conditions. Do not store it in a location where the temperature drops below -30°C (-22°F) or rises above 60°C (140°F). Temperatures outside of this range will damage your batteries. High temperatures during storage, especially at a high state of charge, reduces the life of the batteries.

    • When storing the machine for more than 10 days, ensure that the machine is in a cool and dry location, out of sunlight, rain, and wet conditions, and at least 50% charged.

    • If you are mowing in hot conditions or in sunlight, the battery may overheat. If this happens, a high-temperature alert will appear on the InfoCenter. In this condition, the cutting units are disengaged and the machine slows down.

      Immediately drive the machine to a cool location out of the sun, turn off the machine, and allow the batteries to cool fully before resuming operation.

    • Adjust the reel-to-bedknife contact to be as light as possible. This reduces the power that is needed to run the cutting units, and increases the amount of work the machine performs on each charge. Refer to Checking the Reel-to-Bedknife Contact.

    • Ensure that the sharpness of the bedknives and reels are maintained. A dull blade increases power consumption and reduces the amount of work that the machine performs on each charge.

    • If you are using groomers, the groomer height should not exceed more than half of the height of cut. If the height of cut is over 1/2 inch, the groomer height should not exceed 1/4 inch.

    • Adjust the rear-roller-brush contact to be as light as possible. This reduces the power that is needed to run the cutting units, and increases the amount of work the machine performs on each charge.

    • Use lights (if your machine is equipped with the Light Kit) only when it is necessary.

    Transporting the Lithium-Ion Batteries

    The US Department of Transportation and international transportation authorities require that lithium-ion batteries be transported using special packaging and only be transported by carriers certified to haul them. In the US, you are allowed to transport a battery when it is installed on the machine as battery powered equipment, with some regulatory requirements. Contact the US Department of Transportation or the appropriate government body in your country for detailed regulations on transportation of your batteries or the machine with the batteries equipped.

    For detailed information on shipping a battery, contact your authorized Toro distributor.

    Understanding the Lithium-Ion Battery Charger

    Refer to Figure 34 for an overview of the battery-charger displays and cords.

    g251620g251632

    Connecting to a Power Source

    To reduce the risk of electric shock, this charger has a 3-prong grounded plug (type B). If the plug does not fit into the wall receptacle, other grounded plug types are available; contact an authorized Toro distributor.

    Do not change the charger or the power-supply-cord plug in any way.

    Danger

    Contact with water while charging the machine could cause electric shock, causing injury or death.

    • Do not handle the plug or the charger with wet hands or while standing in water.

    • Do not charge the batteries in the rain or in wet conditions.

    Important: Check the power supply cord periodically for holes or cracks in the insulation. Do not use a damaged cord. Do not run the cord through standing water or wet grass.

    1. Insert the charger plug on the power-supply cord into the matching input power socket on the charger.

      Warning

      A damaged charger cord can cause an electrical shock or a fire.

      Thoroughly inspect the power supply cord before using the charger. If the cord is damaged, do not operate the charger until you obtain a replacement.

    2. Insert the wall plug end of the power supply cord into a grounded electrical outlet.

    Charging the Lithium-Ion Batteries

    Caution

    Attempting to charge the batteries with a charger not provided by Toro can result in excessive heat and other related product malfunctions, which can lead to property damage and/or injury.

    Use the charger (Model 04012) to charge the batteries.

    Important: Charge the batteries only in temperatures that are within the recommended range; refer to the following table for the recommended range:

    Note: The charger will not function in temperatures exceeding the minimum or maximum temperatures shown in the following table.

    Recommended Temperature Range for Charging

    Charging range0° to 45°C (32° to 113°F)
    Low-temperature charging range (Reduced Current)-5° to 0°C (23° to 32°F)
    High-temperature charging range (Reduced Current)45° to 60°C (113° to 140°F)
