Handling and Servicing
Batteries
•
To reduce the potential for fire, keep the batteries
and motor area free of excessive grease, grass,
leaves, and accumulation of dirt.
•
Always disconnect the battery cables before
servicing any electrical components; refer to
Disconnecting the Batteries (page 37) .
Note:
Disconnecting all of the battery cables
isolates power from the electrical system.
•
Battery electrolyte contains sulfuric acid. Sulfuric
acid produces hydrogen gas, which, in the right
proportions, is explosive.
– Always service, store, and charge the machine
in a well-ventilated area.
– Keep sparks and open flames away from the
batteries.
– Do not smoke near the batteries.
– Never use an open flame to check the level or
leakage of battery electrolyte.
•
Use caution when handling and working around
electrolyte. The sulfuric acid in electrolyte can burn
skin and damage clothing. Furthermore, it can be
emitted as a gas that can damage your lungs.
– Wear proper eye, hand, and face protection.
– Do not lean over the batteries at any time.
– Avoid breathing in battery fumes.
– Fill the batteries where clean water is always
available for flushing the skin.
– If you get electrolyte on your skin or eyes, flush
the affected area for 20 minutes with clean
water. Remove acid-soaked clothing . Seek
medical attention immediately.
– Keep children and pets away from the batteries
and electrolyte.
•
Electrolyte is very poisonous.
– Do not drink the electrolyte.
– If electrolyte has been swallowed, and the
person is conscious, have them drink large
quantities of water immediately to dilute the
electrolyte.
– Do not attempt to make them vomit.
– Call Poison Control and get medical attention
immediately.
•
When not filling the batteries, keep the battery
vent caps tight on the batteries. Never operate
the machine if any of the vent caps are missing or
damaged.
•
When removing or installing the batteries, do not
allow the battery terminals to touch any metal
parts of the machine.
•
Do not allow metal tools to short between the
battery terminals and metal parts of the machine.
Remove all jewelry and watches before servicing
the batteries.
•
Do not check a battery charge by placing a metal
object across the posts. This causes sparks,
which can cause an explosion.
•
Always keep the battery retainers in place to
protect and secure the batteries.
•
Read and understand the charging instructions
before charging the batteries; refer to
Charging
the Batteries (page 35) . Also, take the following
precautions and actions when charging the
batteries:
– Turn the machine key switch to O
FF
before
connecting the charger to a power source.
– Use only the battery charger supplied with the
machine to charge the batteries.
– Do not charge a damaged or frozen battery.
– Always unplug the AC power cord from the
power outlet before unplugging it from the
machine charging receptacle to avoid sparks.
– If a battery gets hot while charging, begins
emitting large amounts of gases, or spews
electrolyte, immediately disconnect the charger
power cord from the power outlet. Have the
machine serviced by an Authorized Service
Dealer before using it again.
Maintenance
•
Before servicing or making adjustments to the
machine, park the machine on a level surface,
engage the parking brake, shut off the machine,
and remove the key to prevent accidental starting
of the machine.
•
Never work under a raised bed without ensuring
that the prop rod is fully seated in the detent slot.
•
To make sure that the entire machine is in good
condition, keep all nuts, bolts, and screws properly
tightened.
•
If the machine must be running to perform a
maintenance adjustment, keep hands, feet,
clothing, and any parts of the body away from the
batteries and any moving parts. Keep everyone
away.
•
If major repairs are ever needed or assistance is
required, contact an Authorized Toro Distributor.
•
To ensure optimum performance and safety,
always purchase genuine Toro replacement
parts and accessories. Replacement parts and
accessories made by other manufacturers could
be dangerous. Altering this machine in any
manner may affect the operation of the machine,
performance, durability or its use may result in
