  • Page 12: Safety Instructions

    Safety Instructions The Reelmaster 3100-D/3105-D (Models 03170, 03171 and 03174) machine is tested and certified by Toro for compliance with existing safety standards and specifications. Although hazard control and accident prevention are partially dependent upon the design and configuration of the machine, these factors are also dependent on the awareness, concern, and proper training of the personnel involved in the operation, transport, maintenance, and storage of the machine.
  • Page 13: Before Operating The Machine

    Become familiar with the controls and know how to stop the machine quickly. Additional copies of the Operator’s Manuals are available at www.toro.com. • Keep all the shields, safety devices, and decals in place. If a shield, safety device, or decal is illegible or damaged, repair or replace it before operating the machine.
  • Page 14: While Operating The Machine

    While Operating the Machine 1. Do not run the engine in a confined area without adequate ventilation. Exhaust fumes are hazardous and could be deadly. 2. Sit on the seat when starting and operating the machine. 3. Check interlock switches daily for proper operation (see Chapter 6: Electrical System (page 6–1)).
  • Page 15 While Operating the Machine (continued) 14. Do not touch engine, muffler, exhaust pipe or hydraulic tank while engine is running or soon after it has stopped because these areas could be hot enough to cause burns. 15. If a cutting unit strikes a solid object or vibrates abnormally, stop immediately. Turn engine off, wait for all motion to stop and inspect for damage.
  • Page 16: Maintenance And Service

    11. Engine must be shut off before checking oil or adding oil to the crankcase. 12. To insure optimum performance and safety, use genuine TORO replacement parts and accessories. Replacement parts and accessories made by other manufacturers could be dangerous, and such use could void the product warranty of The Toro Company.
  • Page 17: Jacking Instructions

    Jacking Instructions CAUTION When changing attachments, tires, or performing other service, use correct blocks, hoists, and jacks. Make sure machine is parked on a solid level floor such as a concrete floor. Prior to raising machine, remove any attachments that may interfere with the safe and proper raising of the machine.

  • Page 27: Identifying The Fastener

    Toro recommends replacing fasteners with a locking feature once they have been removed because the effectiveness of the locking feature diminishes with each reuse. If it is necessary to reuse a fastener with a locking feature; apply a thread locking compound (Loctite for example) to the fastener during installation.

  • Page 91: Traction Circuits

    Traction Circuits The traction circuit of the hydraulic system consists of a hydrostat connected in a closed loop circuit to three orbital vane wheel motors. The mow/transport slide control on the machines has positions for mow and transport. The mow position allows traction pedal inputs that are appropriate for mow speeds by limiting the movement of the traction pedal and the piston pump swash plate.
  • Page 92 Traction Circuit Cooling The traction circuit is cooled by a bleed off circuit in the piston pump. The piston pump includes an internal bleed valve which allows a small amount of hydraulic fluid to pass from the return side of the pump while operating the traction unit in the forward direction.
