Removing The Bottom Shield; Lubrication; Greasing The Machine - Toro STX-38 Operator's Manual

Removing the Bottom
Shield
Important:
The fasteners on the covers of this
machine are designed to remain on the cover after
removal. Loosen all fasteners on each cover a few
turns so that the cover is loose but still attached,
then go back and loosen them until the cover
comes free. This prevents you from accidentally
stripping the bolts free of the retainers.
1. Park the machine on a level surface, engage
the parking brake (if applicable), and lower the
hydraulic lift.
2. Shut off the engine and remove the key.
3. Loosen the 2 bolts securing the bottom shield
sequentially until the shield is free

4. Pull the shield back and out of the machine.
5. To install the shield before operating the
machine, slide the bottom shield into the
machine so that it rests on all 4 tabs and secure
it with the 2 bolts you loosened previously
(Figure 26).
Note:
You may need to lift up on the bottom
shield to ensure that it rests on the front tabs.
