Checking The Level Of The Hydraulic Fluid - Toro Reelmaster 7000-D Operator's Manual

Figure 36
1. Fuel-tank cap
4. Fill the tank until the level is to the bottom of the
filler neck with fuel.
5. Install the fuel-tank cap tightly after filling the
tank.
Note:
If possible, fill the fuel tank after each
use. This will minimize possible buildup of
condensation inside the fuel tank.
Checking the Level of the
Hydraulic Fluid
Service Interval: Before each use or daily
The reservoir is filled at the factory with approximately
28.4 L (7.5 US gallons) of high-quality hydraulic fluid.
Check the level of the hydraulic fluid before the engine
is first started and daily thereafter.
The recommended replacement fluid is Toro
Premium All Season Hydraulic Fluid (available in
5-gallon pails or 55-gallon drums. See parts catalog
or Toro distributor for part numbers).
Alternative fluids: If the Toro fluid is not available,
other conventional, petroleum-based fluids may be
used, provided that they meet all of the following
material properties and industry specifications. Check
with your oil supplier to see whether the fluid meets
these specifications.
Note:
Toro will not assume responsibility for damage
caused by improper substitutions, so use only
products from reputable manufacturers who will stand
behind their recommendation.
High Viscosity Index/Low Pour Point Antiwear Hydraulic
Fluid, ISO VG 46 Multigrade
Material Properties:
Viscosity, ASTM D445
Viscosity index, ASTM
D2270
Pour point, ASTM D97
FZG, fail stage
Water content (new fluid)
Industry Specifications:
Vickers I-286-S, Vickers M-2950-S, Denison HF-0,
Vickers 35 VQ 25 (Eaton ATS373-C)
The proper hydraulic fluids must be specified for
mobile machinery (as opposed to industrial plant
usage), multiweight-type, with ZnDTP or ZDDP
anti-wear additive package (not an ashless-type fluid).

Important:
The ISO VG 46 Multigrade fluid has
been found to offer optimal performance in a wide
range of temperature conditions. For operation
in consistently high ambient temperatures, 18° C
(65° F) to 49° C (120° F), ISO VG 68 hydraulic fluid
may offer improved performance.
Premium Biodegradable Hydraulic Fluid-Mobil
EAL EnviroSyn 46H
Important:
Mobil EAL EnviroSyn 46H is the only
synthetic biodegradable fluid approved by Toro.
This fluid is compatible with the elastomers used
in Toro hydraulic systems and is suitable for a
wide range of temperature conditions. This fluid
is compatible with conventional fluids, but for
maximum biodegradability and performance the
hydraulic system should be thoroughly flushed
of conventional fluid. The fluid is available in 19
L (5 US gallon) containers or 208 L (55 US gallon)
drums from your Mobil Distributor.
Important:
Many hydraulic fluids are almost
colorless, making it difficult to spot leaks. A red
dye additive for the hydraulic fluid is available in
20 ml (2/3 fl oz) bottles. A bottle is sufficient for
15 to 22 L (4 to 6 US gallons) of hydraulic fluid.
Order part 44-2500 from your Authorized Toro
Distributor.
1. Position the machine on a level surface, lower
the cutting units, stop the engine, and remove
the key.
2. Clean the area around the filler neck and cap of
the hydraulic tank
