In case of emergency, the vehicle can be towed for a
short distance. However, Toro does not recommend
this as a standard procedure.

Towing the vehicle is a two person job. Affix a tow line to
holes in front frame member. Move shifter to Neutral
and release parking brake. If machine must be moved
a considerable distance, transport it on a truck or
trailer.

The Workman
is capable of pulling trailers and
attachments of greater weight than the vehicle itself.
Several types of tow hitches are available for the
Workman, depending on your application. Contact
your Authorized TORO Distributor for details.
When equipped with a tow hitch bolted onto rear axle
tube, your Workman can tow trailers or attachments
with a Gross Trailer Weight (GTW) up to 1500 lbs.
Always load a trailer with 60% of the cargo weight in the
front of the trailer. This places approximately 10% (200
lbs. max.) of the Gross Trailer Weight (GTW) on the tow
hitch of the vehicle.
When towing either standard tongue or 5th wheel
trailers having a Gross Trailer Weight (GTW) in excess
of 1500 lbs., use either a chassis mounted draw bar
hitch (rated for 3500 lb. GTW) or 5th wheel kit with
brakes. Trailer brakes are required whenever a trailer
over 1500 lbs. GTW is towed behind a Workman
vehicle.
When hauling cargo or towing a trailer (attachment),
do not overload your vehicle or trailer. Overloading can
cause poor performance or damage to the brakes,
axle, engine, transaxle, steering, suspension, body
structure or tires.

To reduce potential for drive line damage,
use first gear.
When towing 5th wheel attachments, like a fairway
aerator, always install the "wheely bar"(included with
the 5th wheel kit) to prevent the front wheels from lifting
off the ground if the towed attachments movement is
suddenly impaired.
