Never carry any other passengers on the vehicle. • Never operate the vehicle when under the influence of drugs or alcohol. Even prescription drugs and cold medicines can cause drowsiness. • Do not drive the vehicle when you are tired. Be sure to take occasional breaks.
Operating on Hills 1. Stop the movement of the vehicle. 2. Set the parking brake. 3. Turn the key to Off. Operating the vehicle on a hill may cause tipping or rolling of the vehicle, or the motor may stall and you could lose headway on the hill. This could result in personal injury. 4. Remove the key. Note: If the vehicle is on an incline, block the wheels after getting off of the vehicle. • Do not operate on excessively steep slopes.
Operating on Rough Terrain cannot be centered. Keep loads balanced and secure to prevent them from shifting. Reduce speed and load when operating on rough terrain, uneven ground, and near curbs, holes, and other sudden changes in terrain. Loads may shift, causing the vehicle to become unstable. • Always secure loads so that they do not shift. If a load is not secured, or you are transporting a liquid in a large container such as a sprayer, the load can shift.
• • • • • • • • – Always service, store, and charge the vehicle in a well ventilated area. – Keep sparks and open flames away from the batteries. – Do not smoke near the batteries. – Never use an open flame to check the level or leakage of battery electrolyte. Use caution when handling and working around electrolyte. The sulfuric acid in electrolyte can burn skin and damage clothing. Furthermore, it can be emitted as a gas that can damage your lungs. – Wear proper eye, hand, and face protection.

9 Checking the Tire Pressure No Parts Required Procedure Check the tire pressure every 8 hours or daily to ensure proper levels. Figure 12 1. Cargo box 2. Pivot bracket The air pressure range in the front and rear tires is 8-22 psi (55-152 kPa). 3. Cargo box mounting hole The air pressure needed is determined by the payload carried. Lower air pressure will provide less compaction, a smoother ride, and fewer tire marks. Lower pressure should not be used for heavy payloads at high speeds. 4.
Note: The driver should drive up to the measurement area and stay seated in the vehicle while the measurement is being taken. If the vehicle will be run with medium to heavy loads most of the time, set the toe-in on the high side of the recommended amount. If it is going to be run with a light load most of the time, set the toe-in on the low side of the recommended amount. 1. Measure the distance between both of the front tires at the axle height at both the front and rear of the front tires (Figure 15).

Understanding and Using the Battery System Check the tire pressure every 8 hours or daily to ensure proper levels. The air pressure range in the front and rear tires is 8–22 psi (55–103 kPa). Understanding Deep Cycle Batteries The air pressure needed is determined by the payload carried. The lower the air pressure, the less the compaction, smoother the ride, and tire marks are minimized. Lower pressure should not be used for heavy payloads at high speeds.
basis between charges, the less life they will have. • Recharge frequency—charge the batteries whenever they are not in use. Fully discharging the batteries will damage them and reduce their life. At the end of the battery life, the coating on the lead plates begins to deteriorate, causing the batteries to rapidly lose electric capacity. Using the Battery System Figure 24 When your batteries are fully charged, the battery meter will have ten bars showing from left to right (Figure 23). 1.
Lowering the Box Operating the Cargo Box Raising the Box The weight of the box may be heavy. Hands or other body parts could be crushed. Keep hands and other body parts clear when lowering the box. Driving the vehicle with the cargo box raised may cause the vehicle to tip or roll easier. The box structure may become damaged if you operate the vehicle with the box raised. Pull the prop rod out of the detent slot and lower the box until it latches into place.
Transporting the Vehicle For moving the vehicle long distances, a trailer should be used. Make sure that the vehicle is secured to the trailer. Refer to Figure 30 and Figure 31 for the location of the tie-down points. Figure 29 1. Tailgate latch Loose seats may fall off of the vehicle and trailer when transporting and land on another vehicle or become an obstruction on the road. 2. To close the tailgate latches, lift the handles upward and slide them toward the outside of the vehicle. 3.
Figure 31 1. Towing tongue and tie down point Towing a Trailer The vehicle is capable of pulling trailers. Two types of tow hitches are available for the vehicle, depending on your application. Contact your Authorized Toro Distributor for details. When hauling cargo or towing a trailer, do not overload your vehicle or trailer. Overloading can cause poor performance or damage to the brakes, axle, motor, transaxle, steering, suspension, body structure, or tires.
Maintenance Note: Determine the left and right sides of the machine from the normal operating position. Recommended Maintenance Schedule(s) Maintenance Service Interval Maintenance Procedure After the first 25 hours • Check the front wheel toe-in and front suspension. Before each use or daily • Check the tire pressure. • Clean the batteries. • Charge the batteries. Every 25 hours • Clean the batteries. • Check the battery electrolyte level.
Maintenance Check Item For the week of: Mon. Tues. Wed. Thurs. Fri. Sat. Sun. Check ride height and toe-in. Lubricate all grease fittings. Touch up damaged paint. If you leave the key in the On/Off switch, someone could accidently start the vehicle and seriously injure you or other bystanders. Remove the key from the On/Off switch and disconnect a battery cable before you do any maintenance. The bed must be raised to perform some routine maintenance.
Lubrication Lubricate all of the bearings and bushings every 100 hours or once a year, whichever occurs first. Grease them more frequently when using the vehicle for heavy-duty operations. Grease Type: Number 2 General Purpose Lithium Base Grease Figure 32 Where to Add Grease 1. Front jacking point Service Interval: Every 100 hours The grease fittings are located at the four tie rod ends (Figure 34) and the two king pins (Figure 35). 1.
Electrical System Maintenance charge the batteries whenever you are not using the vehicle. Depending on how discharged the batteries are, it may take up to 16 hours to charge the batteries to full capacity. Maintaining the Batteries Important: Lead-acid batteries do not develop a charge memory and do not need to be fully discharged before charging them. Fully discharging the batteries may damage them.
Replacing Used Batteries When the vehicle begins to show a loss of range or when the length of the discharge/charge cycle is significantly reduced, the batteries are probably getting old and losing their ability to hold a charge. Take the vehicle to an Authorized Service Dealer and have them test the batteries to determine whether the batteries need to be replaced. The Dealer can then replace the batteries for you. If you wish to replace the batteries yourself, use the following procedure: 1.
11. Connect the long, black, main negative lead between the bank of batteries and the vehicle (Figure 37). 1. Set the parking brake, turn the vehicle off, and remove the key. 12. Torque the nuts securing all battery cables to 120 to 180 inch-lb (13.5 to 21 N-m). 2. Reach beneath the dash and push the headlight out of the hood. 13. Coat the battery terminals with Toro battery terminal protector. 3. Remove the screws attaching the wire harness to the headlight. 14.
Drive System Maintenance Inspecting the Tires Service Interval: Every 100 hours Every 100 hours Check the tire condition at least every 100 hours of operation. Operating accidents, such as hitting curbs, can damage a tire or rim and also disrupt wheel alignment, so inspect tire condition after an accident. Figure 40 Check the wheels to ensure that they are mounted securely. Torque the center bolts on the front wheels to 135-165 ft-lb (183-224 NVm) and the front and rear lug nuts to 45-65 ft-lb (61-88 NVm).
6. Torque the ride height adjustment bolt to 135-165 ft-lb (183-224 N-m). 7. Replace the travel limiting bolt (Figure 40). Note: The vehicle may need to be lowered to the ground on that side to install the bolt. 8. Tighten and torque the centering bolts to 240-290 ft-lb (325-393 N-m). 9. Check the ride height at the front tongue per the dimensions and parameters given at the beginning of this procedure. Figure 42 Adjusting Front Wheel Toe-In 1. Tire center line-back 2. Tire center line-front 3.
Brake Maintenance Inspecting the Brakes Service Interval: Every 100 hours Brakes are a critical safety component of the vehicle. As with all safety components, they should be closely inspected at regular intervals to ensure optimum performance and safety. The following inspections should be done every 100 hours: • Inspect the brake shoes for wear or damage. If the lining (brake pad) thickness is less than 1/16 inch (1.6 mm), the brake shoes should be replaced.
4. Disconnect the spring from the end of the brake rod (Figure 45). Cleaning 5. Press the brake pedal down fully to raise the brake lever. Washing the Vehicle 6. Thread the brake rod in or out of the brake equalizer as needed to remove the slack from the brake cables (Figure 45). Do not overtighten the cables. The vehicle should be washed as needed. Use water alone or with a mild detergent. A rag may be used, however the hood will loose some of its luster. 7.
Storage 1. Position the machine on a level surface, set the parking brake, turn the machine Off, and remove the key. 2. Clean dirt and grime from the entire machine, including the outside of the motor housing. Important: You can wash the machine with mild detergent and water. Do not use high pressure water to wash the machine. Pressure washing may damage the electrical system or wash away necessary grease at friction points.
