Operation
Note:
Determine the left and right sides of the
machine from the normal operating position.
Think Safety First
Please carefully read all of the safety instructions
and symbols in the safety section. Knowing this
information could help you or bystanders avoid injury.
The use of protective equipment, such as but not
limited to, for eyes, ears, feet, and head is recommended.
This machine produces sound levels in excess
of 85dBA at the operator’s ear and can cause
hearing loss through extended periods of
exposure.
Wear hearing protection when operating this
machine.
Checking the Engine Oil
The engine is shipped with oil in the crankcase;
however, the oil level must be checked before and after
the engine is first started.
Crankcase capacity is approximately 3.5 quarts (3.3 l)
with the filter.
Use high-quality engine oil that meets the following
specifications:
•
API Classification Level Required: CH–4, CI–4 or
higher.
•
Preferred oil: SAE 10W–30 Alternate oil: SAE
5W–30
•
Alternate oil: SAE 5W–30
Toro Premium Engine oil is available from your
distributor in the 10W–30 viscosity. See the parts
catalog for part numbers.
Note:
The best time to check the engine oil is when the
engine is cool before it has been started for the day. If it
has already been run, allow the oil to drain back down
to the sump for at least 10 minutes before checking.
If the oil level is at or below the “add” mark on the
dipstick, add oil to bring the oil level to the “full” mark.
DO NOT OVERFILL
. If the oil level is between the
“full” and “add” marks, no oil addition is required.
Important:
Be sure to keep the engine oil level
between the upper and lower limits on the oil
gauge. Engine failure may occur as a result of over
filling or under filling the engine oil.
1. Position the machine on a level surface.
2. Remove the dipstick and wipe it with a clean rag
(Figure 29). Push the dipstick into the tube and
make sure it is seated fully. Remove the dipstick
from the tube and check the level of oil. If the oil
level is low, remove the filler cap from the valve
cover and
slowly
add enough oil to raise the level
to the Full mark on the dipstick. Add the oil slowly
and check the level often during this process.
Do
not overfill.
Important:
Make sure that the dipstick is
removed while filling the engine with oil. When
adding engine oil or filling oil, there
must
be
clearance between the oil fill device and
the oil fill hole in the valve cover as shown in
Figure 28. This clearance is necessary to permit
venting when filling, which prevents oil from
overrunning into breather.
