Service and Repairs
Engine Oil
The TORO Company recommends that the oil level be
checked each time the mower is used or after every 5
operating hours. Initially, change oil after the first 20
hours of operation; thereafter, change oil after every 50
hours of operation. More frequent oil changes are re-
quired in dusty or dirty conditions.
Changing the Oil:
1.
Start and run engine for a few minutes to warm the
engine oil.
2.
Place a drain pan at the rear of machine under the
drain plug. Remove drain plug.
