Maintenance

Changing the Hydraulic Fluid

Service Interval: Every 800 hours
Change the hydraulic fluid after every 800 operating hours,
in normal conditions. If the fluid becomes contaminated,
contact your local Toro distributor because the system must
be flushed. Contaminated fluid looks milky or black when
compared to clean oil.
1. Turn the engine off and raise the hood.
2. Disconnect the case return line from the bottom of the
reservoir and let the hydraulic fluid flow into a large
drain pan.
3. Connect the line when the hydraulic fluid stops
draining.
4. Fill the reservoir with approximately 28.4 L (7.5 US
gallons) of hydraulic fluid.
Important: Use only the hydraulic fluids
specified. Other fluids could cause system
damage.
5. Install the reservoir cap.
6. Start the engine and use all of the hydraulic controls to
distribute hydraulic fluid throughout the system.
7. Check for leaks; then stop the engine.
8. Check the fluid level and add enough to raise level the
level to the Full mark on the dipstick.
Note: Do not overfill the reservoir.

Replacing the Hydraulic Filters

Service Interval: After the first 200 hours
Every 800 hours
Change the 2 hydraulic filters initially after the first 200

operating hours, in normal conditions.
Use Toro replacement filters part 94-2621 for the rear (cutting

the machine.
Important: Use of any other filter may void the warranty
on some components.

cutting units, stop the engine, engage the parking
brakes, and remove the ignition key.
2. Clean the area around the filter mounting area.
3. Place a drain pan under the filter and remove the filter
