Sound Power Level - Toro Greensmaster 3420 TriFlex Operator's Manual

•
Always wear substantial shoes. Do not operate the
machine while wearing sandals, tennis shoes, or sneakers.
Wearing safety shoes and long pants is advisable and
required by some local ordinances and insurance
regulations.
•
The operator must be skilled and trained in how to drive
on hillsides. Failure to use caution on slopes or hills may
cause loss of control and cause the vehicle to tip or roll,
possibly resulting in personal injury or death.
•
Handle fuel carefully. Wipe up any spills.
•
Check the safety interlock switches daily for proper
operation. If a switch has failed, replace the switch before
operating the machine
•
Before attempting to start the engine, sit on the seat, pull
the lift lever back and release it to ensure the cutting
units are disengaged. Verify that the traction system is in
neutral and the parking brake is set.
•
Using the machine demands attention. To prevent loss
of control:
– Do not drive close to sand traps, ditches, creeks, or
other hazards.
– Reduce speed when making sharp turns. Avoid
sudden stops and starts.
– Watch out for traffic when near or crossing roads.
Always yield the right-of-way.
– Apply the service brakes when going downhill to
keep forward speed slow and to maintain control of
the machine.
•
Shut the engine off before emptying the baskets.
•
Raise the cutting units when driving from one work area
to another.
•
Do not touch the engine, muffler, or exhaust pipe while
the engine is running or soon after it has stopped because
these areas could be hot enough to cause burns.
•
Before getting off of the seat, move the functional control
lever to neutral (N), raise the cutting units and wait for
the reels to stop spinning. Set the parking brake. Stop the
engine and remove the key from the ignition switch.
•
Traverse slopes carefully. Do not start or stop suddenly
when traveling uphill or downhill.
•
The operator must be skilled and trained in how to drive
on hillsides. Failure to use caution on slopes or hills may
cause loss of control and cause the machine to tip or roll,
possibly resulting in personal injury or death.
•
If the engine stalls or loses headway and cannot make it
to the top of a slope, do not turn the machine around.
Always back slowly, straight down the slope.
•
When a person or pet appears unexpectedly in or near
the mowing area, stop mowing. Careless operation,
combined with terrain angles, ricochets, or improperly
positioned guards can lead to thrown object injuries. Do
not resume mowing until the area is cleared.
•
Always use the seat belt with the ROPS when operating
the machine.
•
Whenever the machine is left unattended, make sure the
cutting units are fully raised, the reels are not spinning,
the key is removed from the ignition switch, and the
parking brake is set.
Maintenance and Storage
•
Make sure all hydraulic line connectors are tight and all
hydraulic hoses and lines are in good condition before
applying pressure to the system.
•
Keep your body and hands away from pin hole leaks or
nozzles that eject hydraulic fluid under high pressure.
Use paper or cardboard, not your hands, to search for
leaks. Hydraulic fluid escaping under pressure can have
sufficient force to penetrate the skin and cause serious
injury.
•
Before disconnecting or performing any work on the
hydraulic system, all pressure in the system must be
relieved by stopping the engine and lowering the cutting
units and attachments to the ground.
•
Check all fuel lines for tightness and wear on a regular
basis. Tighten or repair them as needed.
•
If the engine must be running to perform a maintenance
adjustment, keep hands, feet, clothing, and any parts of
the body away from the cutting units, attachments, and
any moving parts, especially the screen at the side of the
engine. Keep everyone away.
•
To ensure safety and accuracy, have an Authorized Toro
Distributor check the maximum engine speed with a
tachometer. Maximum governed engine speed should be
2900 RPM.
•
The engine must be shut off before checking the oil or
adding oil to the crankcase.
•
If major repairs are ever needed or if assistance is desired,
contact an Authorized Toro Distributor.
•
To ensure optimum performance and continued safety
certification of the machine, use only 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.
•
Disconnect the cutting units from the power supply,
using the cutting unit power disconnect couplers, before
performing any work on the cutting units.
