Filling The Fuel Tank; Checking The Engine Oil Level; Checking The Cooling System; Checking The Hydraulic System - Toro 30360 Operator's Manual

In certain conditions during fueling, static
electricity can be released causing a spark
which can ignite the fuel vapors. A fire or
explosion from fuel can burn you and others
and can damage property.
• Always place fuel containers on the ground
away from your vehicle before filling.
• Do not fill fuel containers inside a vehicle
or on a truck or trailer bed because interior
carpets or plastic truck bed liners may
insulate the container and slow the loss of
any static charge.
• When practical, remove equipment from the
truck or trailer and refuel the equipment
with its wheels on the ground.
• If this is not possible, then refuel such
equipment on a truck or trailer from a
portable container, rather than from a fuel
dispenser nozzle.
• If a fuel dispenser nozzle must be used, keep
the nozzle in contact with the rim of the fuel
tank or container opening at all times until
fueling is complete.

Filling the Fuel Tank

1. Park the machine on a level surface.
Important: The fuel tanks are connected, but
the fuel does not transfer quickly from one tank
to the other. It is important when filling that
you park on a level surface. If you park on a hill,
you may inadvertently overfill the tanks.
2. Shut the engine off and set the parking brake.
3. Clean around each fuel tank cap and remove the cap.
Important: Do not open the fuel tanks when
parked on a hill. The fuel could spill out.
4. Add fuel to both fuel tanks, until the level is even
with the bottom of the filler neck (Figure 11). Do
not over fill the fuel tanks.
1. Bottom of the filler neck
5. Install the fuel tank caps securely. Wipe up any fuel
that may have spilled.
Note: If possible, fill the fuel tanks after each use.
This will minimize possible buildup of condensation
inside the fuel tank.

Checking the Engine Oil Level

Before you start the engine and use the machine, check
the oil level in the engine crankcase; refer to Checking
Oil Level in , page

Checking the Cooling System

Before you start the engine and use the machine, check
the cooling system; refer to Checking the Cooling
System in , page
Checking the Hydraulic
System
Before you start the engine and use the machine, check
the hydraulic system; refer to Checking the Hydraulic

Using the Rollover Protection
System (ROPS)
To avoid injury or death from rollover: keep the
roll bar in the raised locked position and use
the seat belt.
Ensure that the rear part of the seat is secured
with the seat latch.
