Loader Arm/Attachment-Tilt Lever • To turn right, rotate the traction control clockwise (Figure 8). • To tilt the attachment forward, slowly move the lever to the right (Figure 10). • To tilt the attachment rearward, slowly move the lever to the left (Figure 10). • To lower the loader arms, slowly move the lever forward (Figure 10). • To raise the loader arms, slowly move the lever rearward (Figure 10).
Hour Meter/Tachometer When the engine is off, the hour meter/tachometer displays the number of hours of operation logged on the machine. When the engine is running, it displays the speed of the engine in revolutions per minute (rpm). After 50 hours and then every 100 hours thereafter (i.e., 150, 250, 350, etc.) the screen displays CHG OIL to remind you to change the engine oil. g029981 Figure 11 1.
Fuel Gauge Specifications This gauge measures the amount of fuel in the fuel tank(s). Note: Specifications and design are subject to change without notice. Traction Unit Hydraulic-Fluid Temperature Light If the hydraulic fluid gets too hot, this light illuminates and an audible alarm sounds. If this happens, shut off the engine and allow the traction unit to cool.
Attachments/Accessories Material Density Material Density (Approximate) Caliche 1250 kg/m3 (78 lb/ft3) A selection of Toro approved attachments and accessories is available for use with the machine to enhance and expand its capabilities.

Important: Raise the attachment enough to clear the ground and tilt the mount plate all the way back. 6. Shut off the engine and remove the key. 7. Engage the quick-attach pins, ensuring that they are fully seated in the mount plate (Figure 16). g003711 Figure 16 1. Quick-attach pins (engaged position) Important: If the pins do not rotate to the 3. Engaged position 2.
8. CAUTION Start the engine, tilt the mount plate forward, and back the machine away from the attachment. Hydraulic couplers, hydraulic lines/valves, and hydraulic fluid may be hot. If you contact hot components, you may be burned. Using the Platform • Wear gloves when operating the hydraulic couplers. Folding the Platform • Allow the machine to cool before touching hydraulic components. Lift up on the back of the platform and swing it toward the machine (Figure 17).
Unfolding the Platform Pull up on the platform until the latch releases, then swing it out and down (Figure 18). g266856 Figure 19 Transport Position When transporting a load, keep the attachment as close to the ground as possible, no more than 15 cm (6 inches) above the ground. Tilt it rearward to keep the load level. g004406 Figure 18 Using the Bucket Filling the Bucket CAUTION If the bucket is not kept level while lifting, the load could be inadvertently dumped on the operator, causing injury.
After Operation After Operation Safety • Shut off the engine, remove the key, wait for all • • 5. After repairing the machine, close the tow valves before operating it. Use a heavy-duty trailer or truck to haul the machine. Use a full-width ramp. Ensure that the trailer or truck has all the necessary brakes, lighting, and marking as required by law. Please carefully read all the safety instructions. Knowing this information could help you or bystanders avoid injury.
Loading the Machine WARNING Loading or unloading a machine onto a trailer or truck increases the possibility of tip-over and could cause serious injury or death. • Use extreme caution when operating a machine on a ramp. • Load and unload the machine with the heavy end up the ramp. • Avoid sudden acceleration or deceleration while driving the machine on a ramp as this could cause a loss of control or a tip-over situation. 1. If using a trailer, connect it to the towing vehicle and connect the safety chains.
g242654 Figure 24 1. Tie-down loops Unloading the Machine 1. Lower the ramp(s). 2. Unload the machine from the trailer with the heavy end up the ramp, carrying loads low (Figure 25). • If the machine has a full load-bearing attachment (e.g., bucket) or a non-load-bearing attachment (e.g., trencher), back it down the ramp. • If the machine has an empty load-bearing attachment or no attachment, drive it forward down the ramp. g317100 Figure 25 1.
Maintenance Note: Determine the left and right sides of the machine from the normal operating position. Important: If you must tilt the machine more than 25°, clamp off the vent hose on the top of the fuel tank(s) to prevent fuel from fouling the carbon canister. Maintenance Safety CAUTION If you leave the key in the switch, someone could accidently start the engine and seriously injure you or other bystanders. Remove the key from the switch before you perform any maintenance.
Maintenance Service Interval Maintenance Procedure Every 100 hours • Change the engine oil. (Service more frequently if conditions are extremely dusty or sandy.) • Check and adjust the track tension. • Check the hydraulic lines for leaks, loose fittings, kinked lines, loose mounting supports, wear, weather, and chemical deterioration. • Check for dirt buildup in the chassis. Every 200 hours • Replace the carbon-canister air filter (Service more frequently if conditions are extremely dusty or sandy).

If it is dirty, gritty, or depleted, clean out all of the grease, replace the gasket, and add new grease. 5. Ensure that the road wheel turns smoothly on the bearing.
Belt Maintenance Inspecting and Replacing the Drive Belt Service Interval: Every 25 hours—Inspect the drive belt for wear or damage. Every 200 hours—Replace the drive belt. To replace the drive belt, complete the following procedure: Note: To complete this procedure, you need a sturdy metal hook to disconnect the idler-pulley spring, such as the spring-removal tool (Toro Part No. 92-5771) available for order from your Authorized Service Dealer. 1.
Controls System Maintenance Adjusting the Controls The factory adjusts the controls before shipping the machine. However, after many hours of use, you may need to adjust the traction control alignment, the NEUTRAL position of the traction control, and the tracking of the traction control in the full forward position. Important: To adjust the controls properly, g243518 complete each procedure in the order listed. Figure 58 Spring cover not shown 1. Idler-pulley assembly 6.
