Cleaning
Inspecting and Cleaning the
Machine
Service Interval:
Before each use or daily
1.
At the completion of operation, thoroughly wash the
machine with a garden hose—without a nozzle—so
that excessive water pressure does not cause
contamination and damage to the seals and bearings.
2.
Make sure that the cooling fins and the area around
the engine-cooling air intake are free of debris.
After cleaning, inspect the machine for possible
hydraulic-fluid leaks, damage, or wear to hydraulic and
mechanical components.
Storage
Storing the Machine
1.
Thoroughly clean the machine, the attachments, and
the engine.
2.
Check the tire pressure. Inflate the tires to 48 kPa (7
psi).
3.
Check all fasteners for looseness; tighten as necessary.
4.
Grease or oil all grease fittings and pivot points. Wipe
off any excess lubricant.
5.
Lightly sand and use touch-up paint on painted areas
that are scratched, chipped, or rusted.
6.
Change the engine oil and filter; refer to
Engine Oil Filter (page 37)
.
7.
Condition the fuel system as follows:
A.
Add a petroleum-based stabilizer/conditioner to
fuel in the tank. Follow the mixing instructions
from the stabilizer manufacturer.
Do not
use an
alcohol-based stabilizer (ethanol or methanol).
Toro fuel stabilizer is available from your
Authorized Toro Distributor.
Important:
Do not store
stabilizer/conditioned fuel over 90 days.
Note:
Fuel stabilizer/conditioner is most
effective when mixed with fresh fuel and used at
all times.
B.
Run the engine for 5 minutes to distribute the
conditioned fuel through the fuel system.
C.
Stop the engine, allow it to cool, and drain the fuel
tank using a pump-type siphon. Dispose of fuel
properly; recycle it according to local codes.
D.
Start the engine and run it until it stops.
E.
Choke the engine.
F.
Start and run the engine until it does not start
again.
8.
Thoroughly clean and service the air-cleaner assembly.
Refer to
Servicing the Air Cleaner (page 38)
.
9.
Seal the air cleaner inlet and the exhaust outlet with
weatherproof masking tape.
10.
Check the dipstick and fuel-tank cap to ensure that
they are securely in place.
11.
Service the battery and cables as follows:
A.
Remove the battery terminals from the battery
posts.
B.
Clean the battery, terminals and posts with a wire
brush and baking soda solution.
C.
Coat the cable terminals and battery posts with
Grafo 112X skin-over grease (Toro Part No.
505-47), or petroleum jelly to prevent corrosion.
