    Fuse Block and Fuses The fuse block houses the fuses that protect the electrical system from electrical surges. Note: Always use Toro fuses when replacing a damaged or blown fuse. g336412 Figure 81 Fuse Block and Fuses Test 1. Visually inspect the fuses. A failed fuse can be identified by a broken or melted element inside the fuse cover or a damaged spade.
