General Operation

•Read, understand, and follow all instructions on

the machine and in the manual(s) before starting.

•Do not put hands or feet near or under the

machine. Keep clear of the discharge opening at

all times.

•Only allow responsible adults, who are familiar

with the instructions, to operate this machine.

•Clear the area of objects such as rocks, wire,

toys, etc., which could be thrown by the blade.

Stay behind the handle when the engine is

running.

•Be sure the area is clear of bystanders before

operating. Stop machine if anyone enters the

area.

•Do not operate machine barefooted or while

wearing sandals. Always wear substantial

footwear.

•Do not pull machine backward unless absolutely

necessary. Always look down and behind before

and while moving backward.

•Never direct discharged material toward anyone.

Avoid discharging material against a wall or

obstruction. Material may ricochet back toward

the operator. Stop the blade when crossing gravel

surfaces.

•Do not operate machine without the entire grass

catcher, discharge guard, rear guard, or other

safety protective devices in place and working.

•Never leave a running machine unattended.

•Stop the engine and wait until the blade comes to

a complete stop before cleaning the machine,

removing grass catcher, or unclogging the

discharge guard.

•Operate machine only in daylight or good artificial

light.

•Do not operate machine while under the influence

of alcohol or drugs.

•Never operate mower in wet grass. Always be

sure of your footing; walk; never run.

•Disengage the drive system, if so equipped,

before starting the engine.

•If the machine should start to vibrate abnormally,

stop the engine and check for the cause

immediately. Vibration is generally a warning of

trouble.

•Always wear eye protection when operating

machine.

•See manufacturer’s instructions for proper

operation and installation of accessories. Only

use accessories approved by the manufacturer.

Slope Operation

Slopes are a major factor related to slip and fall

accidents, which can result in severe injury. Operation

on all slopes require extra caution. If you feel uneasy

on a slope, do not mow it.

•Mow across the face of slopes; never up and

down. Exercise extreme caution when changing

direction on slopes.

•Watch for holes, ruts, bumps, rocks, or other

hidden objects. Uneven terrain could cause a slip

and fall accident. Tall grass can hide obstacles.

•Do not mow on wet grass or excessively steep

slopes. Poor footing could cause a slip and fall

accident.

•Do not mow near drop-offs, ditches, or

embankments. You could lose your footing or

balance.

Children

Tragic accidents can occur if the operator is not alert

to the presence of children. Children are often

attracted to the machine and the mowing activity.

Never assume that children will remain where you

last saw them.

•Keep children out of the mowing area and under

the watchful care of a responsible adult other

than the operator.

•Be alert and turn mower off if a child enters the

area.

•Never allow children to operate the machine.

•Use extra care when approaching blind corners,

shrubs, trees, or other objects that may block

your view of a child.

Service

Safe Handling of Gasoline

To avoid personal injury or property damage, use

extreme care in handling gasoline. Gasoline is

extremely flammable and the vapors are

explosive.

•Extinguish all cigarettes, cigars, pipes, and other

sources of ignition.

•Use only an approved gasoline container.

•Never remove gas cap or add fuel with the engine

running. Allow engine to cool before refueling.

•Never refuel the machine indoors.

•Never store the machine or fuel container where

there is an open flame, spark, or pilot light such

as on a water heater or on other appliances.

•Never fill containers inside a vehicle or on a truck

or trailer bed with a plastic liner. Always place

containers on the ground away from your vehicle

before filling.

•Remove gas-powered equipment from the truck

or trailer and refuel it on the ground. If this is not

possible, then refuel such equipment with a

portable container, rather than from a gasoline

dispenser nozzle.

•Keep the nozzle in contact with the rim of the fuel

tank or container opening at all times until fueling

is complete. Do not use a nozzle lock-open

device.

•If fuel is spilled on clothing, change clothing

immediately.

•Never overfill fuel tank. Replace gas cap and

tighten securely.

Warning

Exhaust contains carbon monoxide, an odorless,

deadly poison that can kill you.

Do not run the engine indoors or in an enclosed

area.

General Service

•Never operate machine in a closed area.

•Keep all nuts and bolts tight to be sure the

equipment is in safe working condition.

•Never tamper with safety devices. Check their

proper operation regularly.

•Keep machine free of grass, leaves, or other

debris build-up. Clean up oil or fuel spillage and

remove any fuel-soaked debris. Allow machine to

cool before storing.

•If you strike a foreign object, stop and inspect the

machine. Repair, if necessary, before starting.

•Never make any adjustments or repairs with the

engine running. Disconnect the spark plug wire

and ground against engine to prevent unintended

starting.

•Check grass catcher components and the

discharge guard frequently and replace with

manufacturer’s recommended parts, when

necessary.

•Mower blades are sharp. Wrap the blade or wear

gloves, and use extra caution when servicing

them.

•Do not change the engine governor setting or

overspeed the engine.

•Maintain or replace safety and instruction labels,

as necessary.

Operating Tips

•Clear the area of sticks, stones, wire, branches,

and other debris that the blade could hit.

•Avoid striking solid objects with the blade. Never

deliberately mow over any object.

•If the mower strikes an object or starts to vibrate,

immediately stop the engine, disconnect the wire

from the spark plug, and examine the mower for

damage.

•For best performance, install a new blade before

the cutting season begins.

•Replace the blade when necessary with a Toro

replacement blade.

Cutting Grass

•Cut only about a third of the grass blade at a

time. Do not cut below the 2-inch (51 mm) setting

unless the grass is sparse or it is late fall when

grass growth begins to slow down. Refer to

Adjusting the Cutting Height on page 7.

•When cutting grass over 6 inches (15 cm) tall,

mow at the highest cutting height setting and walk

slower; then mow again at a lower setting for the

best lawn appearance. If the grass is too long, the

mower may plug and cause the engine to stall.

•Mow only dry grass or leaves. Wet grass and

leaves tend to clump on the yard and can cause

the mower to plug or the engine to stall.

Warning

Wet grass or leaves can cause serious injury if

you slip and contact the blade. Mow only in dry

conditions.

•Alternate the mowing direction. This helps

disperse the clippings over the lawn for even

fertilization.

If the finished lawn appearance is unsatisfactory, try

one or more of the following:

•Replace the blade or have it sharpened.

•Walk at a slower pace while mowing.

•Raise the cutting height on your mower.

•Cut the grass more frequently.

•Overlap cutting swaths instead of cutting a full

swath with each pass.

•Set the cutting height on the front wheels one

notch lower than the rear wheels. For example,

set the front wheels at 2 inches (51 mm) and the

rear wheels at 2-3/8 inches (60 mm).
