Checking The Cooling System - Toro Reelmaster 5410-D Operator's Manual

Using summer-grade fuel above -7°C (20°F)
contributes toward longer fuel pump life and increased
power compared to winter-grade fuel.
Biodiesel
This machine can also use a biodiesel blended fuel of
up to B20 (20% biodiesel, 80% petroleum diesel).
Sulfur content: Ultra-low sulfur (<15 ppm)
Biodiesel fuel specification: ASTM D6751 or
EN14214
Blended fuel specification: ASTM D975, EN590,
or JIS K2204
Important:
The petroleum diesel portion must
be ultra-low sulfur.
Observe the following precautions:
•
Biodiesel blends may damage painted surfaces.
•
Use B5 (biodiesel content of 5%) or lesser blends
in cold weather.
•
Monitor seals, hoses, gaskets in contact with fuel
as they may be degraded over time.
•
Fuel filter plugging may be expected for a time
after converting to biodiesel blends.
•
Contact your Authorized Toro Distributor if you
wish for more information on biodiesel.
Fuel Tank Capacity
53 L (14 US gallons)
Adding Fuel
1. Park the machine on a level surface.
2. Using a clean rag, clean area around fuel-tank
cap.
3. Remove the cap from the fuel tank
1. Fuel-tank cap
4. Fill the tank until the level is 6 to 13 mm (1/4 to
1/2 inch) below the bottom of the filler neck.
5. Install the fuel-tank cap tightly after filling the
tank.

Figure 28
Note:
If possible, fill the fuel tank after each use.
This minimizes possible buildup of condensation
inside the fuel tank.
Checking the Cooling
System
Clean debris off of the screen, oil cooler, and front
of the radiator daily and more often if conditions are
extremely dusty and dirty. Refer to the section on
Removing Debris from the Cooling System.
The cooling system is filled with a 50/50 solution
of water and permanent ethylene glycol antifreeze.
Check the level of coolant in the expansion tank at the
beginning of each day before starting the engine. The
capacity of the cooling system is 6.6 liters (7.0 quarts).
CAUTION
If the engine has been running, the
pressurized, hot coolant can escape and
cause burns.
• Do not open the radiator cap when the
engine is running.
• Use a rag when opening the radiator cap,
and open the cap slowly to allow steam to
escape.
1. Check the level of coolant in the expansion tank
(Figure
The coolant level should be between the marks
on the side of the tank.

2. If the coolant level is low, remove the expansion
tank cap and replenish the system. Do not
overfill.
3. Install the expansion tank cap.
