Operating Instructions
3. A foreign object, such as a stick, piece of turf,
etc., is stuck in the reel, restricting rotation.
If changing the traction speed does not cause the
light to go out, and the reel control light remains illu-
minated regardless of traction speed, then a service
issue is required. In this case contact your local
authorized Toro Distributor
ADJUSTING LIFT ARM DOWN
PRESSURE
The down pressure spring on each cutting unit lift
arm can be adjusted to compensate for different turf
conditions. Increased down pressure will help keep
the cutting units on the ground when mowing at
higher speeds and helps maintain a uniform height-
of-cut in rough conditions or in areas of thatch build-
up.
Each down pressure spring may be adjusted to one of
four settings. Each increment increases or decreases
down pressure on cutting unit by 3 kg (8 lbs.).
1. Position the machine on a level surface, lower
the cutting units, stop the engine, engage the
parking brakes and remove the key from the
ignition switch.
2. Remove the floor plate in front of the seat and
open the hood to gain access to all (5) springs.
Springs are under tension, use caution when
adjusting.

TOWING THE TRACTION UNIT
If it becomes necessary to tow the machine, tow it
forward only and at a speed no greater than 16 kmh
(10 mph).
Note: If you exceed these towing limits, severe
damage to the hydrostatic transmission may
occur.
To tow a disabled machine:
1. Loosen and remove the capscrews securing the
drive shaft to the engine. Loosen the capscrews
clamping the drive shaft to transmission
(Fig. 19). Remove the drive shaft.

Important: If the drive shaft is not removed
before towing, the transmission input shaft
will not be able to rotate, not the allowing
transmission to maintain its internal lubrica-
tion. Severe damage to the transmission may
occur.
