Maintenance
Hydraulic System Safety
•
Ensure that all hydraulic-fluid hoses and
lines are in good condition and all hydraulic
connections and fittings are tight before
applying pressure to the hydraulic system.
•
Keep your body and hands away from pinhole
leaks or nozzles that eject high-pressure
hydraulic fluid.
•
Use cardboard or paper to find hydraulic leaks.
•
Safely relieve all pressure in the hydraulic
system before performing any work on the
hydraulic system.
•
Seek immediate medical attention if fluid
is injected into skin. Injected fluid must be
surgically removed within a few hours by a
doctor.
Checking the Hydraulic
System
Service Interval: Before each use or daily
The reservoir is filled at the factory with
approximately 17 L (18 US qt) of high-quality tractor
transmission/hydraulic fluid. The recommended
replacement fluid is as follows:
Toro Premium Transmission/Hydraulic Tractor
Fluid (Available in 19 L (5 gallon) pails or 208 L (55
gallon) drums. See the Parts Catalog or your Toro
Distributor for part numbers).
Alternate fluids: If the Toro fluid is not available,
Mobil® 424 hydraulic fluid may be used.
Note:
Toro will not assume responsibility for damage
caused by improper substitutions.
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 20 ml (2/3 fl oz)
bottles. One bottle is sufficient for 15 to 22 L (4 to 6
US gallons) of hydraulic fluid. Order Part No. 44-2500
from your authorized Toro distributor.
