Multigrade Hydraulic Fluid – ISO VG 46
Normal Climate: 0 (–18 C) to 110 F (43 C)
Mobil
Amoco
Chevron
Conoco
Exxon
Pennzoil
Shell
Texaco
Important
The ISO VG 46 Multigrade fluid has been
found to offer optimal performance in a wide range of
temperature conditions. For operation in consistently high
ambient temperatures, 65 F (18 C) to 120 F (49 C), ISO
VG 68 hydraulic fluid may offer improved performance.
Note: Many hydraulic fluids are almost colorless, making it
difficult to spot leaks. A red dye additive for the hydraulic
system oil is available in 2/3 oz. (20 ml) bottles. One bottle
is sufficient for 4–6 gal (15–22 1) of hydraulic oil. Order
part no. 44–2500 from your authorized Toro distributor.
Not recommended for biodegradable fluid (use food
coloring).
Biodegradable Hydraulic Fluid – Mobil 22411
Important
Mobil EAL 224H is the only biodegradable
oil tested and approved by Toro. Contamination by
mineral–based hydraulic fluids will change the
biodegradability and toxicity of this oil. When changing
from standard fluid to the biodegradable type, be certain to
follow the approved flushing procedure published by
Mobil. Contact your local Toro Distributor for details. This
oil is available in 5 gallon (19 l) containers from your Toro
Distributor, order part no. 100–7674.

Checking the Planetary Gear
Drive Oil
1. With machine on level surface, position wheel so the
check/drain plug (Fig. 19) is at either 2 or 10 o'clock
position.
2. Remove the plug on the planetary (Fig. 19) and the
check plug on the back side of the brake (Fig. 20). Oil
should be at the bottom of the check plug hole on front
and back side of the brake.
3. Add gear oil to the hole in the planetary, if necessary, to
bring the oil up to the proper level. Install the plug.
4. Repeat steps 1–3 on the opposite gear assembly.
