Side Discharging Or Mulching The Grass; Adjusting The Height-Of-Cut - Toro GrandStand 74534 Operator's Manual

WARNING
Loading a unit onto a trailer or truck increases the
possibility of backward tip-over and could cause
serious injury or death.
• Use extreme caution when operating a unit on
a ramp.
• Use only a single, full width ramp; Do Not use
individual ramps for each side of the unit.
• If individual ramps must be used, use enough
ramps to create an unbroken ramp surface wider
than the unit.
• Do not exceed a 20 degree angle between ramp
and ground or between ramp and trailer or truck.
• Avoid sudden acceleration while driving unit up
a ramp to avoid tipping backward.
• Avoid sudden deceleration while backing unit
down a ramp to avoid tipping backward.

Side Discharging or Mulching
the Grass
This mower has a hinged grass deflector that disperses
clippings to the side and down toward the turf.

20 degrees

DANGER
Without the grass deflector, discharge cover, or
complete grass catcher assembly mounted in
place, you and others are exposed to blade contact
and thrown debris. Contact with rotating mower
blade(s) and thrown debris will cause injury or
death.
• Never remove the grass deflector from the mower
because the grass deflector routes material down
toward the turf. If the grass deflector is ever
damaged, replace it immediately.
• Never put your hands or feet under the mower.
• Never try to clear discharge area or mower
blades unless you release the bail and the power
take off (PTO) is off. Rotate the ignition key to
Off. Also remove the key and pull the wire(s) off
the spark plug(s).
