High–Low Range Shifter
The high–low range shifter adds 3 additional speeds for
precise speed control (Figure 5).
•
The machine must be completely stopped before shifting
between the High and Low range.
•
Shift only on level ground.
•
Press the clutch pedal fully.
•
Move the lever fully forward for High and fully rearward
for Low.
High is for higher speed driving on level, dry surfaces with
light loads.
Low is for low-speed driving. Use this range when greater
than normal power or control is required. For example,
steep grades, difficult terrain, heavy loads, slow speed but
high-engine speed (spraying).
Important: There is a location between High and Low
in which the transaxle is in neither range. Do not use
this position as a neutral position because the vehicle
could move unexpectedly if the High–Low shifter is
bumped and the gear-shift lever is in gear.
Ignition Switch
Use the ignition switch (Figure 6) to start and stop the engine.
It has three positions: Off, On/Preheat, and Start. Rotate
the key clockwise to the Start position to engage the starter
motor. Release the key when the engine starts. The key will
move automatically to the On position. To shut the engine
off, rotate the key counterclockwise to the Off position.

Hour Meter
The hour meter indicates the total hours of machine
operation. The hour meter (Figure 6) starts to function
whenever the key switch is rotated to the On position or if
the engine is running.
Third-high lockout Switch
Use the 3rd-high lockout switch to prevent the use of third
gear when in the High range. Move the 3rd-high lockout
switch (Figure 6) to the slow position and remove the key to
prevent the use of third gear when in the High range.
Note: The engine will shut off if the shift lever is moved to
third gear when in High range.
Note: The key is removable in either position.
Oil-pressure-warning Light
The oil-pressure-warning light glows (Figure 6) if the
engine-oil pressure drops below a safe level while the engine
is running. If the light flickers or remains on, stop the vehicle,
turn off the engine, and check the oil level. If the oil level is
low, but adding oil does not cause the light to go out when
the engine is restarted, turn the engine off immediately and
contact your local Toro distributor for assistance.
Check the operation of warning lights as follows:
1. Apply the parking brake.
2. Turn the ignition key to the On/Preheat position, but
do not start the engine.
Note: The oil pressure light should glow red. If the
light does not function, either a bulb is burned out or
there is a malfunction in the system which must be
repaired.
Note: If engine was just turned off, it may take 1 to
2 minutes for the light to come on.
Low-oil Pressure Shut Down
The low-oil pressure shut down system will shut the engine
off if the engine oil pressure drops below a safe level (for
more than 10 seconds). Contact your local Toro distributor
for assistance.
Glow-plug Indicator
The glow-plug indicator (Figure 6) will glow red when the
glow plugs are activated.
Important: The glow plug indicator will turn on, for an
additional 15 seconds, when the switch returns to the
On position.
