Adjusting the Throttle

1. Position the throttle lever rearward so that it
stops against the control panel slot.
2. Loosen the throttle cable connector on the
injection-pump lever arm

3. Hold the injection-pump lever arm against the
low idle stop and tighten the cable connector.
4. Loosen the screws securing the throttle control
to the control panel.
5. Push the throttle control lever all the way
forward.
6. Slide the stop plate until it contacts the throttle
lever, and tighten the screws that secure the
throttle control to the control panel.
7. If the throttle does not stay in position during
operation, torque the locknut used to set the
friction device on the throttle lever to 5 to 6 N∙m
(40 to 55 inch-lb).
Note:
The maximum force required to operate
the throttle lever should be 27 N∙m (20 ft-lb).

Hydraulic System
Maintenance

Hydraulic System Safety

•
Seek immediate medical attention if fluid is injected
into skin. Injected fluid must be surgically removed
within a few hours by a doctor.
•
Ensure that all hydraulic-fluid hoses and lines are
in good condition and all hydraulic connections
and fittings are tight before applying pressure to
the hydraulic system.
•
Keep your body and hands away from pinhole
leaks or nozzles that eject high-pressure hydraulic
fluid.
•
Use cardboard or paper to find hydraulic leaks.
•
Safely relieve all pressure in the hydraulic system
before performing any work on the hydraulic
system.
Changing the Hydraulic
Fluid
Service Interval: Every 400 hours
If the fluid becomes contaminated, contact a Toro
distributor to flush the hydraulic system. Contaminated
hydraulic fluid looks milky or black when compared to
clean fluid.
1. Turn the engine off and raise the hood.
2. Disconnect the hydraulic line
remove the hydraulic filter
the hydraulic fluid flow into a drain pan.
