Pushing Or Towing The Traction Unit - Toro 30301TC Operator's Manual

parking brake.
Do not disconnect the interlock switches. Check
switch operation daily to assure the interlock system
is operating correctly. If a switch is malfunctioning,
replace it before operating the machine. To ensure
maximum safety, replace all switches after every two
years or 1,000 hours, whichever comes first.
2. Sit on the seat. Depress the traction pedal. Try to start
the engine. The engine should not crank. If the engine
cranks, there is a malfunction in the interlock system
that should be corrected before beginning operation.
Do not operate the machine without the implement
unless the PTO drive shaft is also removed.
3. Sit on the seat and start the engine. Rise off the seat and
move the PTO lever to ON. The PTO should not
engage. If the PTO engages, there is a malfunction in
the interlock system that should be corrected before
beginning operation.
PUSHING OR TOWING THE
TRACTION UNIT (Fig. 11)
In an emergency, the traction unit can be pushed or towed.
However, Toro does not recommend this as standard proce-
dure.
IMPORTANT: Do no push or tow the traction unit faster
than 10 mph. If the traction unit must be moved a con-
siderable distance, transport it on a truck or trailer.
1. Locate the towing lever on the right side of the axle
assembly.
2. Remove the cotter pin and clevis pin securing the lever
to the plate on the side of the axle.
3. Pivot the lever rearward until the hole is aligned with
the rear hole in the plate. Secure the lever to rear hole
with the cotter pin and clevis pin previously removed.
