Safety Instructions

The Workman HDX Auto vehicles are designed and
tested to offer safe service when operated and main-
tained properly. Although hazard control and accident
prevention are partially dependent upon the design and
configuration of the vehicle, these factors are also de-
pendent upon the awareness, concern and proper train-
ing of the personnel involved in the operation, transport,
maintenance and storage of the vehicle. Improper use
or maintenance of the vehicle can result in injury or
death. To reduce the potential for injury or death, comply
with the following safety instructions.

Before Operating

1. Review and understand the contents of the Opera-
tor's Manual and Operator's DVD before starting and
operating the vehicle. Become familiar with the controls
and know how to stop the vehicle and engine quickly.
Additional copies of the Operator's Manual are available
on the internet at www.Toro.com.
2. Keep all shields, safety devices and decals in place.
If a shield, safety device or decal is defective, illegible or
damaged, repair or replace it before operating the ve-
hicle. Also tighten any loose nuts, bolts or screws to en-
sure vehicle is in safe operating condition.
3. Assure interlock switches are adjusted correctly so
engine cannot be started unless brake pedal is de-
pressed and hydraulic lever is in the neutral position.
Safety

ply with the following safety instructions.
