Pre-starting Checks
Safe operation begins before taking the vehicle out for a day’s
work. You should check these items each time:
•
Check the tire pressure.
•
Check all fluid levels and add the appropriate amount of
Toro specified fluids, if any are found to be low.
•
Check the radiator. Remove any debris and clean the
radiator screen.
•
Check the brake pedal operation.
•
Check to see that the lights and horn are working.
•
Turn the steering wheel to the left and right to check the
steering response.
•
Stop the engine and wait for moving parts to stop, then
check for oil leaks, loose parts, and any other noticeable
malfunctions.
If any of the above items are not correct, notify your mechanic
or check with your supervisor before taking the vehicle out
for the day. Your supervisor may want you to check other
items on a daily basis, so ask what your responsibilities are.
Starting the Engine
1.
Sit on the operator’s seat and engage the parking brake.
2.
Disengage the PTO and high flow hydraulics (if so
equipped) and move the hand throttle lever to the Off
position (if so equipped).
3.
Move the shift lever to the Neutral position and press
the clutch pedal.
4.
Ensure that the hydraulic lift lever is in the center
position.
5.
Keep your foot off of the accelerator pedal.
6.
Turn the ignition switch to the On position. When the
glow plug indicator light goes off, the engine is ready
to start.
7.
Rotate the ignition key switch to the Start position.
Release the key immediately when the engine starts and
allow it to return to the Run position.
Note:
The glow plug indicator will turn on for an additional
15 seconds, when the switch returns to the Run position.
Note:
Do not run the starter motor more than 10 seconds at
a time or premature starter failure may result. If engine fails
to start after 10 seconds, turn the key to the Off position.
Check the controls and starting procedure, wait 10 additional
seconds, and repeat the starting operation.
Driving the Vehicle
1.
Release the parking brake.
2.
Fully press the clutch pedal.
3.
Move the gear shift lever to 1st gear.
4.
Release the clutch pedal smoothly while pressing the
accelerator pedal.
5.
When the vehicle gains enough speed, remove your
foot from the accelerator pedal, fully press the clutch
pedal, move the gear shift lever to the next gear and
release the clutch pedal while pressing the accelerator
pedal. Repeat the procedure until the desired speed is
attained.
Important:
Always stop the vehicle before shifting
to reverse from a forward gear or to a forward gear
from reverse.
Note:
Avoid long periods of engine idling.
Important:
Do not attempt to push or tow vehicle
to get it started. Damage to the drive train could
result.
Use the chart below to determine the ground speed
