Checking The Transaxle-Fluid Level; Changing The Transaxle Fluid; Checking The Neutral Gear-Shift Position - Toro Workman 07040 Operator's Manual

Checking the
Transaxle-Fluid Level
Service Interval: Every 100 hours
Fluid Type: SAE 80W-90 (API MT-1) or SAE 80W-90
(API GL-5)
1. Park the machine on a level surface.
2. Engage the parking brake.
3. Shut off the engine and remove the key.
4. Remove the fill plug on the transaxle
Note:
The fluid level should be even with the
bottom of the fill plug.

5. If the fluid level is low, remove the fill plug and
add the specified fluid until it runs out of the hole
(Figure 57).
6. Replace the fill plug and torque it to 20 to 27
N∙m (15 to 20 ft-lb).
Changing the Transaxle
Fluid
Service Interval: Every 800 hours/Yearly (whichever
comes first)
Fluid Type: SAE 80W-90 (API MT-1) or SAE 80W-90
(API GL-5)

3. Remove the drain plug and the seal, and allow
the fluid to drain completely
Note:
Retain the drain plug and seal for
installation in step 4.
4. Install the drain plug and seal, and torque it to
20 to 27 N∙m (15 to 20 ft-lb).
5. Fill the transaxle with the specified fluid until it
runs out of the fill hole.
6. Install the fill plug and seal, and torque it to 20 to
27 N∙m (15 to 20 ft-lb).
Checking the Neutral
Gear-Shift Position
Service Interval: Every 100 hours
When performing routine maintenance and/or engine
diagnostics, the transaxle must be shifted into
N . The machine has a N
EUTRAL
the gear-shift selector, which controls the neutral in
the transaxle. The following steps should be taken
to make sure that the neutral shift lever operates the
transaxle neutral correctly:
1. Set the gear-shift selector to the N
position.
2. Rotate the secondary clutch
it spins freely in the N
3. Set the gear-shift selector to the F
position.
4. Rotate the secondary clutch
it rotates the rear wheels.
5. Set the gear-shift selector to the R
position.
6. Rotate the secondary clutch
it rotates the rear wheels.
7. If any of these tests fail, proceed to
the Neutral Gear-Shift Position (page
