Inspecting And Cleaning After Mowing; Hauling The Machine - Toro Greensmaster TriFlex 3400 Operator's Manual

Inspecting and Cleaning
after Mowing
After mowing, thoroughly wash the machine with a
garden hose without a nozzle so that excessive water
pressure does not contaminate and damage the seals
and bearings. Do not wash a warm engine or the
electrical connections with water.
Important:
Do not use brackish or reclaimed
water to clean the machine.
Important:
Do not use power-washing equipment
to wash the machine. Power-washing equipment
may damage the electrical system, loosen
important decals, or wash away necessary grease
at friction points. Avoid excessive use of water
near the control panel, engine, and battery.
Important:
Do not wash the machine with the
engine running. Washing the machine with the
engine running may result in internal engine
damage.
After cleaning the machine, do the following:
•
Inspect the machine for possible hydraulic
fluid leaks, damage or wear to hydraulic and
mechanical components.
•
Inspect the cutting units for sharpness.
•
Lubricate the brake-shaft assembly with SAE 30
oil or spray lubricant to deter corrosion and help
keep the machine performing satisfactorily during
the next mowing operation.

Hauling the Machine

•
Use care when loading or unloading the machine
into a trailer or a truck.
•
Use a full-width ramp for loading the machine into
a trailer or a truck.
•
Tie the machine down securely using straps,
chains, cable, or ropes. Both front and rear straps
should be directed down and outward from the
machine (Figure
