Maintenance and Service

1. Before servicing or making adjustments to the ma-
chine, stop the engine, remove key from switch to pre-
vent accidental starting of the engine.
2. Be sure entire machine is in good operating condi-
tion. Keep all nuts, bolts, screws and hydraulic fittings
tight.
3. Make sure all hydraulic line connectors are tight,and
all hydraulic hoses and lines are in good condition be-
fore applying pressure to the system.
4. Keep body and hands away from pin hole leaks or
nozzles that eject hydraulic fluid under high pressure.
Use paper or cardboard, not hands, to search for leaks.
Hydraulic fluid escaping under pressure can have suffi-
cient force to penetrate skin and do serious damage. If
fluid is ejected into the skin it must be surgically removed
within a few hours by a doctor familiar with this form of
injury or gangrene may result.
5. Before disconnecting or performing any work on the
hydraulic system, all pressure in system must be re-
lieved by stopping engine and lowering cutting units and
attachments to the ground.
6. To reduce potential fire hazard, keep the engine area
free of excessive grease, grass, leaves and accumula-
tion of dirt. Never wash a warm engine or electrical con-
nections with water.
7. Check all fuel lines for tightness and wear on a regu-
lar basis. Tighten or repair fuel lines as needed.
8. If the engine must be running to perform a mainte-
nance adjustment, keep hands, feet, clothing and any
other parts of the body away from the cutting units, at-
tachments and any moving parts. Keep bystanders
away from the machine while performing maintenance.

Safety and Instruction Decals

Numerous safety and instruction decals are affixed to
the traction unit. If any decal becomes illegible or dam-
aged, install a new decal. Part numbers are listed in your
Parts Catalog. Order replacement decals from your Au-
thorized Toro Distributor.

12.At the time of manufacture, the Greensmaster
3250--D conformed to safety standards in effect for rid-
ing mowers. To make sure of optimum performance and
continued safety certification of the machine, use genu-
ine TORO replacement parts and accessories. Re-
placement parts and accessories made by other

void the product warranty of The Toro Company.
13.When changing attachments, tires or performing
other service, use correct hoists and jacks. Make sure

crete floor. Prior to raising the machine, remove any at-
tachments that may interfere with the safe and proper
raising of the machine. Always chock or block wheels.

propriate jack stands, the machine may move or fall,
which may result in personal injury.
