Check the hydraulic-fluid level and replenish the fluid as required.
Hydraulic fluid escaping under pressure can penetrate skin and cause injury.
If hydraulic fluid is injected into the skin it must be surgically removed within a few hours by a doctor familiar with this type of injury. Gangrene may result if this is not done.
Keep body and hands away from pin hole leaks or nozzles that eject high-pressure hydraulic fluid.
Use cardboard or paper to find hydraulic leaks.
Safely relieve all pressure in the hydraulic system before performing any work on the hydraulic system.
Ensure that all hydraulic-fluid hoses and lines are in good condition and all hydraulic connections and fittings are tight before applying pressure to the hydraulic system.
Start the traction unit engine and check the fitting connections.

A selection of Toro approved attachments and accessories is available for use with the machine to enhance and expand its capabilities. Contact your Authorized Service Dealer or Distributor or go to www.Toro.com for a list of all approved attachments and accessories.
The front lift frame is designed to accept only certain attachments. Do not try to install a rear mount attachment to the front lift frame, as damage to the machine may occur.
To lower the front lift frame, push the lift lever forward.
To allow the front lift frame to float, push the lift lever forward and to the side into the detent.
To raise the front lift frame, pull the lift lever rearward.
Become familiar with the safe operation of the equipment, with the operator controls, and safety signs.
Keep hands and feet away from moving parts and hot surfaces.
Note: To obtain an electrical schematic or a hydraulic schematic for your machine, visit www.Toro.com.
The front lift frame has 5 grease fittings (Figure 27) that must be lubricated regularly with No. 2 lithium grease. If the machine is operated under normal conditions, lubricate all bearings and bushings after every 100 hours of operation. Lubricate the bearings and bushings immediately after every washing, regardless of the interval listed.
