Improperly using or maintaining this machine can
result in injury. To reduce the potential for injury, comply
with these safety instructions and always pay attention to
the safety alert symbol (Figure 2), which means Caution,
Warning, or Danger-personal safety instruction. Failure
to comply with the instruction may result in personal
injury or death.
Important: This machine was manufactured according
to the appropriate regulatory standards in effect at the
time of manufacture. Modifying this machine in any
way may cause it to be out of compliance with those
standards and with the instructions in this Operator's
Manual. Modifications to this machine should be made
only by an Authorized Toro Service Dealer.
WARNING
Welding, cutting, or drilling cast ductile iron parts
of the machine could cause them to break during
operation, which in turn could result in injury or
death.
Do not weld, cut, or drill to repair or to attach items
to cast ductile iron parts on this machine.
Always follow all safety instructions to avoid serious injury
or death.
You can prevent and are responsible for injuries occurring to
yourself and to others and for damage to property.
Do not use this machine for applications other than those
which are described in this manual.
Before operating this machine for the purpose of trenching,
drilling, or other construction work, it is your responsibility
to know where all utility lines are buried in the project area
and to avoid them.
Always ensure that all local utility companies mark
the location of their lines. In the USA and Canada,
call a "One-call System Directory" service. In the
USA, call 811 or your local number. If you do not know
your local number, call the national number (USA and
Canada only) at 1-888-258-0808. Also, contact any utility
companies that are not participants of the "One-call
System Directory" service.
Check with local authorities for all laws and regulations that
require you to locate and avoid existing utilities.
Refer to the following table for the proper utility line and the
corresponding utility line color (USA and Canada only):
