Check The Torque Of The Wheel Nuts; Burnishing The Brakes; Starting And Stopping The Engine; Cutting Grass With The Machine - Toro Reelmaster 5410-D Operator's Manual

Check the Torque of the
Wheel Nuts
Service Interval: After the first hour
After the first 10 hours
Every 250 hours
Torque the wheel nuts to 94 to 122 N-m (70 to 90 ft-lb).
WARNING
Failure to maintain proper torque of the wheel
nuts could result in personal injury.

Burnishing the Brakes

To ensure optimum performance of the parking-brake
system, burnish (break in) the brakes before use.
Set the forward traction speed to 6.4 km/h (4 mph)
to match the reverse traction speed (all 8 spacers
moved to the top of the mow-speed control). With
the engine at high idle, proceed forward with the
mow-speed-control stop engaged and ride the brake
for 15 seconds. Proceed backward at full reverse
speed and ride the brake for 15 seconds. Repeat this
5 times, waiting 1 minute between each forward and
reverse cycle to avoid overheating the brakes; refer to
Adjusting the Parking Brakes (page
Starting and Stopping the
Engine
Important:
The fuel system automatically bleeds
itself when any of the following situations occur:
•
Initial start-up of a new machine.
•
The engine has ceased running due to lack of fuel.
•
Maintenance has been performed upon the fuel
system components.
Starting the Engine
1. Sit on the seat, keep your foot off the traction
pedal so that it is in N
parking brake, set the engine-speed switch
to the M position, and ensure that the
IDDLE
Enable/Disable switch is in the D
2. Remove your foot from the traction pedal and
make sure that the pedal is in the N
position.

warm up (without load), then move the throttle
control to the desired position.
Stopping the Engine
1. Move all controls to N
brake, move the engine-speed switch to the low
idle position and allow the engine to reach low
idle speed.
2. Turn the key to the O
from the switch.
Cutting Grass with the
Machine
Note:
Cutting grass at a rate that loads the engine
promotes DPF regeneration.
1. Move the machine to the job site and align the
machine outside the cutting area for the first
cutting pass.
2. Ensure that the PTO switch is set to the
position.
3. Move the lever for the mow-speed limiter
forward.
4. Press the throttle-speed switch to set the engine
speed to
5. Use the joystick to lower the cutting units to the
ground.
6. Press the PTO switch to prepare cutting units
for operation.
7. Use the joystick to raise the cutting units off the
ground.
8. Begin moving the machine toward the cutting
area and lower the cutting units.
Note:

9. When you complete the mowing pass, use the
joystick to lift the cutting units.
10. Perform a tear-shaped turn to quickly line up for
your next pass.

Regeneration
The diesel particulate filter (DPF) is part of the exhaust
system. The diesel-oxidation catalyst of the DPF
reduces harmful gasses and the soot filter removes
soot from the engine exhaust.
The DPF regeneration process uses heat from the
engine exhaust to incinerate the soot accumulated on
