General Safety
· Never allow children or people who are not trained or physically capable to
safely operate or service the machine. Local regulations may restrict the age
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 signs.
· Shut off the machine, remove the key, and wait for all movement to stop
before you leave the operator’s position. Allow the machine to cool before
adjusting, servicing, cleaning, or storing it.
· Know how to stop and shut off the machine quickly.
· Ensure that there are not more occupants (you and your passenger(s)) than
the number of handholds equipped on the machine.
· Check that all safety devices and decals are in place. Repair or replace all
safety devices and replace all illegible or missing decals. Do not operate the
machine unless they are present and functioning properly.
Checking the Tire Pressure
Service Interval: Before each use or daily
Front and rear tires air pressure specification: 165 to 207 kPa (24 to 30 psi)
Important: Do not exceed the maximum air pressure indicated on the sidewall of
the tire.
Note: The air pressure needed in the tires is determined by the payload that
you intend to carry.
1. Check the air pressure in the tires. · Use lower air pressure in the tires
for lighter payloads, for less soil compaction, for a smoother ride, and to
minimize tire marks on the ground. · Use higher air pressure in the tires for
carrying heavier payloads at higher speeds.
2. If necessary, adjust the air pressure in the tires by adding or removing
air in the tires.

g001055
Performing Daily Maintenance
Service Interval: Before each use or daily
Before starting the machine each day, perform the Each Use/Daily procedures
listed in Maintenance (page 25).

Understanding and Using the Battery System
Understanding Deep-Cycle Batteries
The machine contains 8 deep-cycle, lead-acid batteries that supply power to
the motor and accessories. A deep-cycle battery is not the same as an
automobile battery. An automobile battery is designed to provide a surge of
power to start the machine and moderate power to run the lights and
accessories when the motor if off or idling. The alternator then continuously
charges as the automobile runs. As such, an automobile battery seldom drops
below 90% of the maximum charge level.
A deep-cycle battery is designed to be a primary power source to provide a
sustained output. Deep-cycle batteries are typically discharged as low as 20
to 30% of the maximum charge level. A discharge this low is considered a deep
discharge.
Important: Repeated deep-discharge cycles reduces the battery life.
Lead-acid batteries produce electricity through a chemical reaction between
lead plates and sulfuric acid. Charging a battery reverses the chemical
reaction, allowing the battery to once again produce electricity.
A battery is a perishable item that has a limited lifetime (Figure 12). When a
battery is new, it requires a break-in period to establish efficient
electrical production. This break in period usually requires 100 to 150
discharge/charge cycles.
After the break-in period, the battery maintains a high capacity for many
cycles. The number of cycles that a battery performs depends on the following:
· Battery maintenance–improper maintenance severely reduces the life of the
batteries.
· Depth of discharge between charge cycles–the deeper the batteries are
discharged on a regular basis between charges, the shorter the service life
the batteries will have.
· Charge frequency–fully charge the batteries whenever possible.
Important: Fully discharging the batteries damages them and reduces their
life.
· Low water levels–if the lead plates become exposed, it may permanently
damage the batteries. Perform the following to maintain the electrolyte level:
After fully charging the batteries, fill the batteries with distilled or
deionized water; refer to Checking the Water Level of the Batteries (page 37)
and Adding Distilled or Deionized Water to the Batteries (page 37).
Important: Fully charge the batteries before adding the water to the
batteries. While charging, the electrolyte increases in volume, and filling a
low battery before fully charging the batteries can cause the electrolyte to
overflow and leak out of the vent.
At the end of the battery life, the batteries gradually lose electric
capacity.

Using the Battery System
When your batteries are fully charged, the tenth bar (far right) illuminates
on the battery-discharge indicator (Figure 13).
1. Battery-discharge indicator
Figure 13
g192308
2. Charge-indicator bars
As you use the machine, the bars disappear as the electrical capacity of the
batteries is used.
When only the second bar from the left remains on the battery-discharge
indicator, it is a good time to charge (Figure 14).
If you continue to use the machine with only 2 bars remaining, bars 1 and 2
alternately flash.
Important: When only the second bar from the left remains on the battery-
discharge indicator, the machine may enter a reduced-speed mode; this mode
aids in protecting the batteries, but prolonged operation in this mode can
damage the batteries and/or the machine. Avoid draining your batteries down to
the second bar from the left to prevent this issue. Charge the batteries
immediately. If the batteries become fully discharged, the machine shuts down.
Do not allow the batteries to become fully discharged.
Important: To obtain maximum battery life, always charge the batteries before
the charge reaches the second bar from the left on the screen. Regularly
depleting the batteries to lower than the second bar from the left reduces the
life of the batteries.
Breaking in a New Machine
Service Interval: After the first 100 hours–Perform the breaking in a new
machine guidelines.
Perform the breaking in a new machine guidelines to provide proper performance
and long life for the machine.
· Check the brake fluid and the water level in the batteries regularly.
· Avoid hard braking situations for the first several hours of new machine
break-in operation. New brake linings may not be at optimum performance until
several hours of use has caused the brakes to become burnished (broken-in);
refer to 3 Burnishing the Brakes (page 9).
· Refer to Maintenance (page 25) for any special, low-hour checks.
· Check the front suspension positioning and adjust it, if necessary; refer to
Adjusting the Front Wheel Alignment (page 41).

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.
· Passengers should sit in the designated seating positions only. Do not carry
passengers in the cargo bed. Keep bystanders and pets away from the machine
during operation.
· Wear appropriate clothing, including eye protection; long pants;
substantial, and slip-resistant footwear. Tie back long hair and do not wear
loose clothing or loose jewelry.
· Use your full attention while operating the machine. Do not engage in any
activity that causes distractions; otherwise, injury or property damage may
occur.
· Do not operate the machine while ill, tired, or under the influence of
alcohol or drugs.
· Do not exceed the maximum gross vehicle weight (GVW) of the machine.
· Use extra caution when operating, braking, or turning the machine with a
heavy load in the cargo bed.
· Carrying oversized loads in the cargo bed reduces the stability of the
machine. Do not exceed the carrying capacity of the bed.
· Carrying material that cannot be bound to the machine adversely affects the
steering, braking, and stability of the machine. When you carry material that
cannot be bound to the machine, use caution when steering or braking.
· Carry a reduced load and reduce the ground speed of the machine when
operating on rough, uneven terrain, and near curbs, holes, and other sudden
changes in terrain. Loads may shift, causing the machine to become unstable.
· Before you start the machine, ensure that the transmission is in neutral,
the parking brake is engaged, and you are in the operating position.
· You and your passengers should remain seated whenever the machine is moving.
Keep your hands on the steering wheel; your passengers should use the
handholds provided. Keep arms and legs within the machine body at all times.
· Operate the machine only in good visibility. Watch for holes, ruts, bumps,
rocks, or other hidden objects. Uneven terrain could overturn the machine.
Tall grass can hide obstacles. Use care
when approaching blind corners, shrubs, trees, or other objects that may
obscure your vision.
· Do not drive the machine near drop-offs, ditches, or embankments. The
machine could suddenly roll over if a wheel goes over the edge or if the edge
gives way.
· Always watch out for and avoid low overhangs such as tree limbs, door jambs,
overhead walkways, etc.
· Look behind and down before reversing the machine to be sure of a clear
path.
· When using the machine on public roads, follow all traffic regulations and
use any additional accessories that may be required by law, such as lights,
turn signals, slow-moving vehicle (SMV) signs, and others as required.
· If the machine ever vibrates abnormally, stop and shut off the machine
immediately, wait for all movement to stop, and inspect for damage. Repair all
damage to the machine before resuming operation.
· It can take longer to stop the machine on wet surfaces than on dry surfaces.
To dry out wet brakes, drive slowly on level ground while putting light
pressure on the brake pedal.
· Operating the machine at high speed and then quickly stopping may cause the
rear wheels to lock up, which impairs your control of the machine.
· Do not touch the motor while the motor is running, or soon after you turn
off the motor, because these areas may be hot enough to cause burns.
· Do not leave a running machine unattended.
· Before you leave the operating position, do the following:
Park the machine on a level surface.
Move the direction selector to the NEUTRAL position.
Engage the parking brake.
Shut off the machine and remove the key.
Wait for all movement to stop.
· Do not operate the machine when there is the risk of lightning.
· Use accessories and attachments approved by The Toro® Company only.
Multi-Passenger Safety
· Do not exceed the gross vehicle weight (GVW) of the machine. You must
account for yourself, your passengers, and the load in the cargo bed
contributing to the overall GVW of the machine.
18
· Passengers should sit in the designated seating positions only. Do not allow
passengers to sit in the cargo bed.
· You and your passengers should remain seated whenever the machine is in
motion.
· The additional machine length results in a larger turn radius, so allow more
space to maneuver the machine.
Slope Safety
Note: A 2-post Rollover Protection System (ROPS) is available for this machine
as an accessory. Use a ROPS if you will work next to drop-offs, near water, in
rough terrain, or on a slope, which could result in a rollover. Contact an
authorized Toro distributor for more information.
Slopes are a major factor related to loss-of-control and tip-over accidents,
which can result in severe injury or death.
· Survey the site to determine which slopes are safe for operating the machine
and establish your own procedures and rules for operating on those slopes.
Always use common sense and good judgment when performing this survey.
· If you feel uneasy operating the machine on a slope, do not do it.
· Keep all movement on slopes slow and gradual. Do not suddenly change the
speed or direction of the machine.
· Avoid operating the machine on wet terrain. Tires may lose traction. A
rollover can occur before the tires lose traction.
· Travel straight up and down a slope.
· If you begin to lose momentum while climbing a slope, gradually engage the
brakes and slowly reverse the machine straight down the slope.
· Turning while going up or down a slope can be dangerous. If you must turn on
a slope, do it slowly and cautiously.
· Heavy loads affect stability on a slope. Carry a reduced load and reduce
your ground speed when operating on a slope or if the load has a high center
of gravity. Secure the load to the cargo bed of the machine to prevent the
load from shifting. Take extra care when hauling loads that shift easily
(e.g., liquids, rock, sand, etc.).
· Avoid starting, stopping, or turning the machine on a slope, especially with
a load. Stopping while going down a slope takes longer than stopping on level
ground. If you must stop the machine, avoid sudden speed changes, which can
cause the machine to tip or roll over. Do not engage the brakes suddenly when
rolling rearward, as this may cause the machine to overturn.
Loading and Dumping Safety
· Do not exceed the gross vehicle weight (GVW) of the machine when operating
it with a load in the cargo bed and/or towing a trailer; refer to
Specifications (page 14).
· Distribute the load in the cargo bed evenly to improve the stability and
control of the machine.
· Before dumping, ensure that there is no one behind the machine.
· Do not dump a loaded cargo bed while the machine is sideways on a slope. The
change in weight distribution may cause the machine to overturn.
Operating the Cargo Bed
Raising the Cargo Bed to the Dump Position
WARNING
A raised bed could fall and injure persons that are working beneath it. ·
Always use the prop rod to hold the bed up
before working under the bed. · Remove any load material from the bed
before raising it.
WARNING
Driving the machine with the cargo bed raised could cause the machine to tip
or roll easier. You could damage the structure of the cargo bed if you operate
the machine with the bed raised. · Operate the machine when the cargo bed
is down. · After emptying the cargo bed, lower it.
CAUTION
If a load is concentrated near the back of the cargo bed when you release the
latches, the bed may unexpectedly tip open, injuring you or bystanders. ·
Center loads in the cargo bed, if possible. · Hold the cargo bed down and
ensure that
no one is leaning over the bed or standing behind it when releasing the
latches. · Remove all cargo from the bed before lifting the bed up to service
the machine.

Loading the Cargo Bed
Use the following guidelines when loading the cargo bed and operating the
machine:
· Observe the weight capacity of the machine and limit the weight of the load
that you carry in the cargo bed as described in Specifications (page 14) and
on the gross vehicle weight tag of the machine.
Note: The load rating is specified for machine operation on a level surface
only.
· Reduce the weight of the load that you carry in the cargo bed when operating
the machine on hills and rough terrain.
· Reduce the weight of the load that you carry when the materials are tall
(and have a high center of gravity), such as a stack of bricks, landscaping
timbers, or fertilizer bags. Distribute the load as low as possible to ensure
that the load does not reduce your ability to see behind the machine when
operating it.
· Keep loads centered by loading the cargo bed as follows:
Evenly position the weight in the cargo bed from side to side.
Important: Tipping over is more likely to occur if the cargo bed is loaded to
1 side.
Evenly position the weight in the cargo bed from front to back.
Important: Loss of steering control or the machine may tip over if you
position the load behind the rear axle and the traction on the front tires is
reduced.
· Use extra caution when transporting oversized loads in the cargo bed,
particularly when you cannot center the weight of the oversize load to the
cargo bed.
22
· Whenever possible, secure the load by binding it to the cargo bed so that it
does not shift.
· When transporting liquids, use caution when driving the machine uphill or
downhill, when suddenly changing speed or stopping, or when driving over rough
surfaces.
The capacity of the cargo bed is 0.28 m3 (10 ft3). The amount (volume) of material that you can place in the bed without exceeding the load ratings of the machine can vary greatly depending on the density of the material.
Refer to the following table for load volume limits with various materials:

Towing a Trailer
g034273
The machine is capable of pulling trailers. Tow hitches are available for the
machine, contact your authorized Toro distibutor for details.
When hauling cargo or towing a trailer, do not overload your machine or
trailer. Overloading either the machine or the trailer can cause poor
performance or damage to the brakes, axle, motor, transaxle, steering,
suspension, body structure, or tires.
Always load a trailer with 60% of the cargo weight in the front of the
trailer. This places approximately 10% of the gross trailer weight (GTW) on
the tow hitch of the machine.
To provide adequate braking and traction, always load the cargo bed when using
a trailer. Do not exceed the GTW or GVW limits.
Avoid parking a machine with a trailer on a hill. If you must park on a hill,
engage the parking brake and block the tires of the trailer.

Charging the Batteries
Service Interval: Before each use or daily
The charger for this machine is located inside the machine under the
operator’s seat. For maximum battery life, charge the batteries whenever you
are not using the machine. Depending on how discharged the batteries are and
the ambient temperature of the batteries, it may take up to 16 hours to charge
the batteries to full capacity.
Note: Normal charge time is approximately 8 to 10 hours.
Important: Lead-acid batteries do not develop a charge memory and do not need
to be fully discharged before charging them. Fully discharging the batteries
may damage them. Charge the batteries any time the machine is not in use.
WARNING
Charging the battery produces gases that can explode.
Never smoke near the batteries and keep sparks and flames away from them.
1. Position the machine in a well-ventilated area near a suitable power
outlet.
2. Check the electrolyte level of the batteries.
Note: After fully charging the batteries, fill the batteries with distilled or
deionized water; refer to Adding Distilled or Deionized Water to the Batteries
(page 37).
Important: Fully charge the batteries before adding the water to the
batteries. While charging, the electrolyte increases in volume, and filling a
low battery before fully charging the batteries can cause the electrolyte to
overflow and leak out of the vent.

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. · A company 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.

Owner Responsibilities
As the Product owner, you are responsible for required maintenance and
adjustments stated in your Operator’s Manual. Failure to perform required
maintenance and adjustments can be grounds for disallowing a warranty claim.
Items and Conditions Not Covered
Not all product failures or malfunctions that occur during the warranty period
are defects in materials or workmanship. This warranty does not cover the
following:
· Product failures which result from the use of non-Toro replacement parts, or
from installation and use of add-on, or modified non-Toro branded accessories
and products. A separate warranty may be provided by the manufacturer of these
items.
· Product failures which result from failure to perform recommended
maintenance and/or adjustments. Failure to properly maintain your Toro product
per the Recommended Maintenance listed in the Operator’s Manual can result in
claims for warranty being denied.
· Product failures which result from operating the Product in an abusive,
negligent or reckless manner.
· Parts subject to consumption through use unless found to be defective.
Examples of parts which are consumed, or used up, during normal Product
operation include, but are not limited to, batteries, carbon brushes, brake
components, tires, filters, belts, etc.

Parts
Parts scheduled for replacement as required maintenance are warranted for the
period of time up to the scheduled replacement time for that part. Parts
replaced under this warranty are covered for the duration of the original
product warranty and become the property of Toro. Toro will make the final
decision whether to repair any existing part or assembly or replace it. Toro
may use remanufactured parts for warranty repairs.
Note Regarding Deep Cycle Battery Warranty:
Deep cycle batteries have a specified total number of kilowatt-hours they can
deliver during their lifetime. Operating, recharging, and maintenance
techniques can extend or reduce total battery life. As the batteries in this
product are consumed, the amount of useful work between charging intervals
will slowly decrease until the battery is completely worn out. Replacement of
worn out batteries, due to normal consumption, is the responsibility of the
product owner. Battery replacement may be required during the normal product
warranty period at owner’s expense.
General Conditions
Repair by an Authorized Toro Distributor or Dealer is your sole remedy under
this warranty.
Neither The Toro Company nor Toro Warranty Company is liable for indirect,
incidental or consequential damages in connection with the use of the Toro
Products covered by this warranty, including any cost or expense of providing
substitute equipment or service during reasonable periods of malfunction or
non-use pending completion of repairs under this warranty.
All implied warranties of merchantability and fitness for use are limited to
the duration of this express warranty. Some states do not allow exclusions of
incidental or consequential damages, or limitations on how long an implied
warranty lasts, so the above exclusions and limitations may not apply to you.
This warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may also have other
rights which vary from state to state.
Countries Other than the United States or Canada
Customers who have purchased Toro products exported from the United States or
Canada should contact their Toro Distributor (Dealer) to obtain guarantee
policies for your country, province, or state. If for any reason you are
dissatisfied with your Distributor’s service or have difficulty obtaining
guarantee information, contact the Toro importer. If all other remedies fail,
you may contact us at Toro Warranty Company.
