Safety
The following list contains safety information specific to Toro
products and other safety information you must know.
•
Become familiar with the safe operation of the equipment,
with the operator controls, and safety signs.
•
Use extra care with grass catchers or other attachments.
These can change the operating characteristics and the
stability of the machine.
•
Follow the manufacturer's recommendations for adding
or removing wheel weights or counterweights to improve
stability.
•
Do not use a grass catcher on steep slopes. A heavy
grass catcher could cause loss of control or overturn the
machine.
•
Slow down and use extra care on hillsides. Be sure to
travel in the recommended direction on hillsides. Turf
conditions can affect the stability of the machine. Use
extreme caution while operating near drop-offs.
•
Keep all movement on slopes slow and gradual. Do not
make sudden changes in speed, directions or turning.
•
The grass catcher can obstruct the view to the rear. Use
extra care when operating in reverse.
•
Use care when loading or unloading the machine into a
trailer or truck.
•
Never operate with the discharge deflector raised,
removed or altered, unless using a grass catcher.
•
Keep hands and feet away from moving parts. Do not
make adjustments with the engine running.
•
Stop on level ground, disengage drives, chock or block
wheels, shut off engine before leaving the operator's
position for any reason including emptying the grass
catcher or unclogging the chute.
•
If you remove the grass catcher, be sure to install any
discharge deflector or guard that might have been
removed to install the grass catcher. Do not operate the
machine without either the entire grass catcher or the
grass deflector in place.
•
Stop the engine before removing the grass catcher or
unclogging the chute.
•
Do not leave grass in grass catcher for extended periods
of time.
•
Grass catcher components are subject to wear, damage
and deterioration, which could expose moving parts or
allow objects to be thrown. Frequently check components
and replace with manufacturer's recommended parts,
when necessary.
