for prolonged exposure to reduce the potential of
permanent hearing damage.

Operate only in daylight or when there is good
artificial light.
–
Drive slowly and watch for holes or other hidden
hazards.
–
Do not drive close to a sand trap, ditch, creek, or
other hazard.
–
Reduce your speed when making sharp turns and
when turning on hillsides.
–
Avoid sudden starts and stops.
–
Before backing up, look to the rear and ensure that
no one is behind the machine.

by keeping nuts, bolts, and screws tight. Check all bolts
and nuts frequently to be sure that they are tightened to

To ensure optimum performance and safety, always
purchase genuine Toro replacement parts and accessories
to keep the machine all Toro. Never use "will-fit"

accessories could void the warranty.

Use care when loading or unloading the machine into a
trailer or truck.
