Checking The Torque Of The Wheel Nuts; Checking The Tire Pressure; Checking The Brake Fluid - Toro 07379 Operator's Manual

Checking the Torque of the
Wheel Nuts
Service Interval: After the first 2 hours
After the first 10 hours
Every 200 hours
WARNING
Failure to maintain proper torque of the wheel nuts
could result in failure or loss of a wheel and may
result in personal injury.
Torque the front and rear wheel nuts to 109 to 122
N-m (80 to 90 ft-lb) after 1 to 4 hours of operation
and again after 10 hours of operation. Torque every
200 hours thereafter.

Checking the Tire Pressure

Service Interval: Before each use or daily
The maximum air pressure in the front tires is 220 kPa (32
psi) and the rear tires is 138 kPa (20 psi).
Check the tire pressure frequently to ensure proper inflation.
If the tires are not inflated to the correct pressure, the tires
will wear prematurely.
Figure 17 is an example of tire wear caused by under inflation.
1. Under inflated tire
Figure 18 is an example of tire wear caused by over inflation.

Checking the Brake Fluid

Service Interval: Before each use or daily—Check the brake
fluid level.
Every 1,000 hours/Every 2 years (whichever comes
first)—Change the brake fluid.
The brake fluid reservoir is shipped from the factory filled
with DOT 3 brake fluid. Check the level before the engine is
first started and every 8 hours or daily, thereafter.
The brake fluid reservoir is located under the dash.
1. Park the machine on a level surface.
2. The fluid level should be up to the Full line on the
reservoir (Figure 19).

3. If the fluid level is low, clean the area around the cap,
remove the reservoir cap, and fill the reservoir to the
proper level. Do not overfill.
Note: You can remove the hood access to the reservoir from
the front of the machine (Figure 20).
