Installing The Mower - Toro 78395 Operator's Manual

Installation
POTENTIAL HAZARD
Without the discharge chute mounted in
place, you and others are exposed to blade
contact and thrown debris.
WHAT CAN HAPPEN
Contact with rotating mower blade(s) and
thrown debris will cause injury or death.
HOW TO AVOID THE HAZARD
NEVER remove the discharge chute from
the mower because the discharge chute
routes material down toward the turf. If
the discharge chute is ever damaged,
replace it immediately. Never put your
hands or feet under the mower.
Never try to clear the discharge area or
mower blades unless you move the power
take off (PTO) to "OFF" and turn the
ignition key to "STOP." Also remove the
ignition key and pull the wire(s) off the
spark plug(s).
Mower Belt Routing
1. Route the mower belt as shown in Fig. 2. Be

pulley.

Installing the Mower

Initial Preparation
The mower must be installed on a level concrete
surface. Rough dirt or lawn surfaces make
installation much more difficult.
1. Place the height–of–cut lever on the deck to the
position for lowest cut (Fig. 3).
