DANGER
POTENTIAL HAZARD
A worn grass bag could allow small stones and
other similar debris to be thrown in operator's
or bystander's direction.
WHAT CAN HAPPEN
Thrown objects can cause serious personal
injury or death to the operator or bystanders.
HOW TO AVOID THE HAZARD
Check the grass bag frequently. If it is
damaged, install a new genuine Toro
replacement bag that has this or a similar
warning.
Emptying the Grass Bag
1. Stop the engine and wait for all moving parts to stop.
2. Lift the door latch until it clears the bag notch and
move the discharge door handle forward (Fig. 6).

bag and lift the bag off of the mower.

Maintenance
Cleaning
Always be sure that discharge tunnel door locks closed
when handle is released. If debris prevents discharge door
from locking closed, clean inside of discharge tunnel and
door thoroughly.
1. Stop engine and pull wire off spark plug. Remove key
from switch (key start models).
2. Remove fuel tank cap. Use a pump-type syphon to
drain fuel into a clean gas can.
Note: This is the only procedure recommended for
draining fuel.
3. Tip mower on side; refer to mower's Operator's
Manual for proper side to use. Avoid rotating blade
because starting problems may result.
4. Remove dirt and grass clippings that stick to housing
with a hardwood scraper. Avoid burrs and sharp edges.
5. Turn mower upright.
6. Remove debris from inside of discharge tunnel.
7. Refill fuel tank.
