Before Operation
Before Operation Safety
General Safety

  • Never allow children or untrained people to operate or service the machine. Local regulations may restrict the age or require certified training of the operator. The owner is responsible for training all operators and mechanics.
  • Become familiar with the safe operation of the equipment, operator controls, and safety decals.
  • Always engage the parking brake (if equipped), shut off the engine, remove the key, wait for all moving parts to stop, and allow the machine to cool before adjusting, servicing, cleaning, or storing the machine.
  • Know how to stop the machine and shut off the engine quickly.
  • Check that the operator’s presence controls, safety switches, and shields are attached and functioning properly. Do not operate the machine unless they are functioning properly.
  • Locate the pinch-point areas marked on the machine and attachments; keep your hands and feet away from these areas.
  • Before operating the machine with an attachment, ensure that the attachment is properly installed and that it is a genuine Toro attachment. Read all the attachment manuals.
  • Evaluate the terrain to determine what accessories and attachments you need to properly and safely perform the job.
  • Have the property or work area marked for buried lines and other objects, and do not dig in marked areas; note the location of unmarked objects and structures, such as underground storage tanks, wells, and septic systems.
  • Inspect the area where you will use the equipment for uneven surfaces or hidden hazards.
  • Ensure that the area is clear of bystanders before operating the machine. Stop the machine if anyone enters the area.

Fuel Safety

  • Use extreme care when handling fuel. It is flammable and its vapors are explosive.
  • Extinguish all cigarettes, cigars, pipes, and other sources of ignition.
  • Use only an approved fuel container.
  • Do not remove the fuel cap or fill the fuel tank while the engine is running or hot.
  •  Do not add or drain fuel in an enclosed space.
  • Do not store the machine or fuel container where there is an open flame, spark, or pilot light, such as on a water heater or other appliance.
  • If you spill fuel, do not attempt to start the engine; avoid creating any source of ignition until the fuel vapors have dissipated.
  • To prevent a static charge from igniting the fuel, remove the machine from the truck or trailer and refuel it on the ground, away from all vehicles. If this is not possible, place a portable fuel container on the ground, away from all vehicles, and fill it; then refuel the machine from the fuel container rather than from a fuel-dispenser nozzle.
  • Keep the fuel-dispenser nozzle in contact with the rim of the fuel tank or container opening at all times until fueling is complete. Do not use a nozzle lock-open device.

Adding Fuel
Recommended Fuel
Use only clean, fresh diesel fuel or biodiesel fuels with low (<500 ppm) or ultra low (<15 ppm) sulfur content. The minimum cetane rating should be 40. Purchase fuel in quantities that you can use within 180 days to ensure fuel freshness.
Use summer-grade diesel fuel (No. 2-D) at temperatures above -7°C (20°F) and winter grade (No. 1-D or No. 1-D/2-D blend) below that temperature. Using winter-grade fuel at lower temperatures provides lower flash point and cold flow characteristics, which eases starting and reduces fuel filter plugging.
Using summer-grade fuel above -7°C (20°F) contributes toward longer fuel pump life and increased power compared to winter-grade fuel.
Important: Do not use kerosene or gasoline instead of diesel fuel. Failure to observe this caution will damage the engine.
Biodiesel Ready
This machine can also use a biodiesel blended fuel of up to B20 (20% biodiesel, 80% petrodiesel). The petrodiesel portion should be low or ultra low sulfur.
Observe the following precautions:

  • The biodiesel portion of the fuel must meet specification ASTM D6751 or EN14214.
  • The blended fuel composition should meet ASTM D975 or EN590.
  • Painted surfaces may be damaged by biodiesel blends.
  • Use B5 (biodiesel content of 5%) or lesser blends in cold weather.
  • Monitor seals, hoses, gaskets in contact with fuel as they may degrade over time.
  • Fuel filter plugging may occur for a time after converting to biodiesel blends.
  • Contact your distributor for more information on biodiesel.

Filling the Fuel Tank
Fuel tank capacity: 20.8 L (5.5 US gallons)

  1. Park the machine on a level surface, engage the parking brake, and lower the loader arms.

  2. Shut off the engine and remove the key.

Failure to maintain adequate distance from trees, walls, and other barriers may result in injury as the machine backs up during operation if you are not attentive to the surroundings.

  • Check for overhead clearance (i.e., electrical wires, branches, and doorways) before driving under any objects and do not contact them.

  • Do not overfill the attachment and always keep the load level when raising the loader arms. Items in the attachment could fall and cause injury.

Slope Safety

  • Operate the machine up and down slopes with the heavy end of the machine uphill. Weight distribution changes with attachments. An empty bucket makes the rear of the machine the heavy end, and a full bucket makes the front of the machine the heavy end. Most other attachments make the front of machine the heavy end.

  • Raising the loader arms on a slope affects the stability of the machine. Keep the loader arms in the lowered position when on slopes.

  • Slopes are a major factor related to loss of control and tip-over accidents, which can result in severe injury or death. Operating the machine on any slope or uneven terrain requires extra caution.

  • Establish your own procedures and rules for operating on slopes. These procedures must include surveying the site to determine which slopes are safe for machine operation. Always use common sense and good judgment when performing this survey.

  • low down and use extra care on hillsides. Ground conditions can affect the stability of the machine.

  • Avoid starting or stopping on a slope. If the machine loses traction, proceed slowly, straight down the slope.

  • Avoid turning on slopes. If you must turn, turn slowly and keep the heavy end of the machine uphill.

  • Keep all movements on slopes slow and gradual.
    Do not make sudden changes in speed or direction.

  • If you feel uneasy operating the machine on a slope, do not do it.

If the outdoor temperature is below freezing, store the traction unit in a garage to keep it warmer and to aid in starting.
When starting the engine in cold conditions (i.e., when the air temperature is at or below freezing), allow it to run in the SLOW throttle position for 8 minutes before moving the throttle to the FAST position or engaging the auxiliary hydraulics.
Important: Running the engine at high speeds when the hydraulic system is cold could damage the hydraulic system.

Driving the Machine
Note: Enable the traction control by toggling the traction-enable switch before driving the machine.
Use the traction control to move the machine. The farther you move the traction control in any direction, the faster the machine moves in that direction.
Release the traction control to stop the machine.
The throttle control regulates the engine speed as measured in rpm (revolutions per minute). Place the throttle lever in the FAST position for best performance. You can, however, use the throttle position to operate at slower speeds.

Shutting Off the Engine

  1. Park the machine on a level surface, engage the parking brake (if equipped), and lower the loader arms.

  2. Ensure that the auxiliary hydraulics lever is in the NEUTRAL position.

  3. Move the throttle lever to the SLOW position.

California Proposition 65 Warning Information

What is this warning?
You may see a product for sale that has a warning label like the following:
WARNING: Cancer and Reproductive Harm—www.p65Warnings.ca.gov.

What is Prop 65?
Prop 65 applies to any company operating in California, selling products in California, or manufacturing products that may be sold in or brought into California. It mandates that the Governor of California maintain and publish a list of chemicals known to cause  cancer, birth defects, and/or other reproductive harm. The list, which is updated annually, includes hundreds of chemicals found in many everyday items. The purpose of Prop 65 is to inform the public about exposure to these chemicals.
Prop 65 does not ban the sale of products containing these chemicals but instead requires warnings on any product, product packaging, or literature with the product. Moreover, a Prop 65 warning does not mean that a product is in violation of any product safety standards or requirements. In fact, the California government has clarified that a Prop 65 warning “is not the same as a regulatory decision that a product is ‘safe’ or ‘unsafe.'” Many of these chemicals have been used in everyday products for years without documented harm. For more information, go to https://oag.ca.gov/prop65/faqs-view-all.
A Prop 65 warning means that a company has either (1) evaluated the exposure and has concluded that it exceeds the “no significant risk level”; or (2) has chosen to provide a warning based on its understanding about the presence of a listed chemical without attempting to evaluate the exposure.

Does this law apply everywhere?
Prop 65 warnings are required under California law only. These warnings are seen throughout California in a wide range of settings, including but not limited to restaurants, grocery stores, hotels, schools, and hospitals, and on a wide variety of products. Additionally, some online and mail order retailers provide Prop 65 warnings on their websites or in catalogs.

How do the California warnings compare to federal limits?
Prop 65 standards are often more stringent than federal and international standards. There are various substances that require a Prop 65 warning at levels that are far lower than federal action limits. For example, the Prop 65 standard for warnings for lead is 0.5 g/day, which is well below the federal and international standards.

Why don’t all similar products carry the warning?

  • Products sold in California require Prop 65 labelling while similar products sold elsewhere do not.
  • Acompany involved in a Prop 65 lawsuit reaching a settlement may be required to use Prop 65 warnings for its products, but other companies making similar products may have no such requirement.
  • The enforcement of Prop 65 is inconsistent.
  • Companies may elect not to provide warnings because they conclude that they are not required to do so under Prop 65; a lack of warnings for a product does not mean that the product is free of listed chemicals at similar levels.

Why does Toro include this warning?
Toro has chosen to provide consumers with as much information as possible so that they can make informed decisions about the products they buy and use. Toro provides warnings in certain cases based on its knowledge of the presence of one or more listed  chemicals without evaluating the level of exposure, as not all the listed chemicals provide exposure limit requirements. While the exposure from Toro products may be negligible or well within the “no significant risk” range, out of an abundance of caution, Toro  has elected to provide the Prop 65 warnings. Moreover, if Toro does not provide these warnings, it could be sued by the State of California or by private parties seeking to enforce Prop 65 and subject to substantial penalties.
