General Information
Workman 3000/4000 Series vehicles are equipped with
a Toro designed transaxle with 3 forward speeds, 1 re-
verse speed and a differential lock. Hi–Lo range gives an
effective 6 forward and 2 reverse speeds.
The transaxle is a constant mesh, collar shift transmis-
sion with synchronizers for gears 1, 2 and 3. Reverse
and High–Low range must be shifted with the vehicle
stationary.
An optional top mounted PTO operates at 540 RPM.
The transaxle with automotive type clutch is bolted to the
engine with the engine/transaxle assembly isolation
mounted to the vehicle frame.
Two heavy duty universal drive shafts transfer power
from the transaxle to the rear wheels. A fully indepen-
dent rear suspension and Dedion type rear axle isolate
the mid–mounted engine/transaxle assembly from the
terrain.
The transaxle housing also functions as the hydraulic
system reservoir.
On units equipped with four wheel drive (4WD), the front
drive shaft in the transaxle transfers power from the
transaxle to the front differential and then to the front
wheels.
