Hydraulic System
Maintenance
Servicing the Hydraulic
System
Hydraulic Fluid Type: Toro ® HYPR-OIL ™ 500
hydraulic oil or Mobil ® 1 15W-50.
Important:
Use oil specified. Other fluids could
cause system damage.
Each Hydraulic System Oil Capacity: 1.5 L (1.59
US qt) per side with filter change
Checking the Hydraulic Oil
Service Interval: Every 50 hours—Check the
hydraulic fluid level.
1. Position the machine on a level surface.
2. Disengage the PTO, move the motion-control
levers to the
NEUTRAL
-
LOCKED
position, and
engage the parking brake.
3. Shut off the engine, remove the key, and wait
for all moving parts to stop before leaving the
operating position.
4. Allow the engine and the hydraulic system to
cool for 10 minutes.
Note:
The oil level on the dipstick will be
incorrect if the oil is checked when the machine
is hot.
5. Move the seat forward.
6. Clean the area around the dipsticks of the
hydraulic-system reservoirs (
Figure 86 ).
7. Remove one dipstick from the hydraulic reservoir
(
Figure 86 ).
8. Wipe the dipstick off and thread the dipstick into
the reservoir.
9. Remove the dipstick and look at the end ( Figure
86 ). If the oil level is at the Add mark, slowly
pour only enough oil into the hydraulic reservoir
to raise the level to the Full or
H line.
Important:
Do not overfill the hydraulic
units with oil as damage may occur. Do not
run the machine with the oil below the add
mark.
10. Install the dipstick.
11. Repeat procedure for the opposite dipstick.

WARNING
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 your body and hands away from
pinhole 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.
