DANGER
LPG fuel is extremely flammable and vapors
are explosive.
• In case of fire, take the following steps:
1. If you can safely do so, stop the flow
of gas as quickly as possible. Never
put out the flame unless you can shut
off the gas.
2. Notify the fire department and clear
the immediate area of all people.
3. When the gas flow has stopped, put
out the fire. Usually, when flow of gas
is cut off, fire will automatically stop.
4. If you cannot immediately stop the
gas flow, direct water onto the tanks
to keep them cool, but do not put out
the fire.
• Storage locations and trailers should
be equipped with at least 1 approved
portable fire extinguisher that has a
minimum capacity of 8.2 kg (18 lb) dry
chemical with a B:C rating. Do not use
carbon-tetrachloride extinguishers such
as Pyrene.
Changing the LPG Tank
Change the LPG tank outdoors in a well-ventilated
area.
Important:
Only hand-tighten the tank-connection
fitting. Overtightening by the use of tools may
cause damage. If hand-tightening does not stop
a leak, contact trained and qualified personnel
immediately.
1.
Shut off the machine on level ground, disengage
the blade-control switch (PTO), move the
motion-control levers to the
position, and engage the parking brake.
2.
Wait for all moving parts to stop before leaving
the operating position.
3.
With the engine running, close the fuel valve on
the tank.
4.
Run the engine until it stops.
Note:
This purges all vapors from the hose.
5.
Remove the key.
6.
Carefully disconnect the LPG fuel hose.

components.
• Use only the Toro-approved LPG tank,
fittings, and hoses that were designed
for your machine.
