•
Reduce the throttle setting during engine run-out and,
if the engine is provided with a shut-off valve, turn the
fuel off at the conclusion of mowing.
•
•
Always disconnect electric mowers (live operated)
before cleaning, repairing, or adjusting.
Grass catcher components are subject to wear, damage,
and deterioration, which could expose moving parts or
allow objects to be thrown. Frequently check
components and replace with manufacturer’s
recommended parts when necessary.
•
•
•
•
Stop the blade(s) when crossing gravel drives, walks,
or roads.
Shut the engine off and wait until the blade comes to
complete stop before removing grass catcher.
•
Mower blades are sharp and can cut. Wrap the blade(s)
or wear gloves, and use extra caution when servicing
them.
Do not operate the mower while under the influence of
alcohol or drugs.
If the equipment should start to vibrate abnormally,
stop the engine and check immediately for the cause.
Vibration is generally a warning of trouble.
•
•
Do not change the engine governor setting or
overspeed the engine.
To ensure the best performance and safety, purchase
only genuine Toro replacement parts and accessories.
Do not use “will fit” parts and accessories; they
may cause a safety hazard.
Slopes are a major factor related to slip and fall accidents
which can result in a severe injury. If you feel uneasy on a
slope, do not mow it.
•
•
•
Watch for holes, ruts, or bumps. Tall grass can hide
obstacles.
Do not mow near drop-offs, ditches, or embankments.
The operator could lose footing or balance.
Do not mow on wet grass. Reduced footing could
cause slipping.
Maintenance and Storage
•
Keep all nuts, bolts (especially blade attachment
bolts), and screws tight to be sure the equipment is in
safe working condition.
•
Never store the equipment with gasoline in the tank
inside a building where fumes may reach an open
flame or spark.
•
•
Allow the engine to cool before storing in any
enclosure.
To reduce the fire hazard, keep the engine, muffler,
battery compartment, and gasoline storage area free of
grass, leaves, or excessive grease.
•
Check the grass catcher frequently for wear or
deterioration.
•
•
Replace worn or damaged parts for safety.
Use extra care when handling gasoline; vapors are
explosive.
•
•
•
•
Never tamper with safety devices. Check their proper
operation regularly.
Keep the mower free of grass, leaves, or other debris
build-up. Clean up oil or fuel spillage.
Stop and inspect the equipment if you strike an object.
Repair, if necessary, before restarting.
Never attempt to make wheel height adjustments while
the engine is running.
