WARNING
POTENTIAL HAZARD
Do not over-tighten blade brake cable.
Over-tightening could cause blade brake to be
pulled off brake drum. If brake does not
contact drum, blade will not stop rotating when
control bar is released.
WHAT CAN HAPPEN
A rotating blade could cause serious personal
injury.
HOW TO AVOID THE HAZARD
Check the blade brake mechanism each time
brake cable is adjusted to ensure brake is
stopping blade in 3 seconds or less.
If blade does not stop rotating in 3 seconds or
less, bring unit to your local Authorized Toro
Service Dealer for inspection and repair.
Cleaning Mower
Plug
To ensure best performance, the discharge tunnel plug
must be cleaned after each use. When grass is thick and
lush, clippings may collect on and around the plug; this
may make plug removal difficult. After each use, remove
plug from discharge tunnel and clean off all debris.
