Controls Once the MIL illuminates, initial trouble shooting checks should be made. Refer to Troubleshooting on page 58 under the MIL section. Become familiar with all the controls (Fig. 11) before you start the engine and operate the machine. If these checks do not correct the problem, further diagnosis and servicing by an Authorized Service Dealer is necessary.
The Safety Interlock System Important Make sure that the fuel shut off valve is closed before transporting or storing the machine, as fuel leakage may occur. Set the parking brake before Caution transporting. Make sure to remove the key as the fuel pump may run and cause the battery to lose charge.
the engine is running, center either motion control and move (forward or reverse); the engine should stop. Repeat for other motion control. 5. Sitting on the seat, disengage the parking brake, move the PTO switch to off and move the motion control levers to neutral lock position.
Note: Press on lift assist pedal when raising deck. This will help in lifting the deck (Fig. 22). 1. Press your foot on the lift assist pedal while raising the height-of-cut lever to the transport position (also the 5 in. (127 mm) cutting height position) (Fig. 20). 2.
Positioning the Seat 2. Rotate the by-pass valves counterclockwise 1 turn to push. This allows hydraulic fluid to by-pass the pump enabling the wheels to turn (Fig. 24). Setting the Seat Position Important Do not rotate by-pass valves more than 1 turn.
Using the Side Discharge Warning The mower has a hinged grass deflector that disperses clippings to the side and down toward the turf. Driving on street or roadway without turn signals, lights, reflective markings, or a slow moving Danger vehicle emblem is dangerous and can lead to accidents causing personal injury.
Using the Z Stand Warning The Z Stand is used for raising the front end of the machine. This allows for cleaning of the deck and Loading a unit onto a trailer or truck increases removal of the blades. the possibility of backward tip–over and could cause serious injury or death.

This also helps disperse clippings which enhances blade is damaged or worn, replace it immediately with a decomposition and fertilization. genuine TORO replacement blade. Mow at Correct Intervals Normally, mow every four days. But remember, grass grows at different rates at different times. So to maintain the same cutting height, which is a good practice, mow more often in early spring.
File down any nicks and sharpen the blades as necessary. If a blade is damaged or worn, replace it immediately with a genuine TORO replacement blade. For convenient sharpening and replacement, you may want to keep extra blades on hand.
To ensure optimum m–1855 performance and continued safety conformance of the Figure 33 machine, use genuine TORO replacement blades. Replacement blades made by other manufacturers may 1. Blade 2. Balancer result in non-conformance with safety standards.
3. Test run the engine and recheck the gauge. If the plunger changes to red, the primary element is restricted and must be replaced, even though it may not appear to be dirty. 4. The gauge may be reset at any time, however it will return to red if correct filter servicing has not been performed.
Cleaning the Primary Filter USE THESE SAE VISCOSITY OILS Blow compressed air from the inside to the outside of the primary filter. 10W–30 Important Do not exceed 100 psi and keep the hose at least 2 inches from the filter. Replace air filters if they are damaged or cannot be cleaned.

Push the wire(s) onto the spark plug(s) (Fig. 40). Servicing the Electronic Fuel Injection System This machine contains an electronic fuel injection system.
Servicing the Fuel Tank Draining The Fuel Tank Danger In certain conditions, gasoline is extremely flammable and highly explosive. A fire or explosion from gasoline can burn you and others and can damage property. Drain gasoline from the fuel tank when the m–4814 engine is cold.
Cleaning the Engine Fins 3. Pump grease into zerk until it oozes out around top bearing. Every 100 hours clean the engine cylinder and cylinder 4. Remove grease zerk in hole. Reinstall hex plug and head cooling fins. Also clean around carburetor, governor dust cap.

Adjusting the Handle Neutral If motion control levers do not align, or move easily into the console notch, adjustment is required. Adjust each lever, spring and rod separately. Note: Motion control levers must be installed correctly. See Installing the Motion Control Levers, page 17. 1.
2. Disconnect electrical connector from the seat safety 2. Start the engine, open throttle 1/2 way and release switch. Temporarily install a jumper wire across parking brake. Refer to Starting and Stopping the terminals in the wiring harness connector. Engine, page 23. 3.
Adjusting the Parking Brake 4. To make the machine go right, turn the knob towards the right side of the machine. Refer to figure 56. Check parking brake for proper adjustment. 5. To make the machine go left, turn the knob towards the left side of the machine.
2. To replace fuses pull out on the fuse to remove it 2. Look at the side of the battery. The electrolyte must be (Fig. 59). up to the upper line (Fig. 61). Do not allow the electrolyte to get below the lower line (Fig. 61). 3.
Installing the Battery Removing the Battery 1. Position battery in tray with terminal posts toward the Warning engine (Fig. 62). Battery terminals or metal tools could short against metal machine components causing sparks. Sparks can cause the battery gasses to explode, resulting in personal injury.
Adding Water to the Battery The best time to add distilled water to the battery is just before you operate the machine. This lets the water mix thoroughly with the electrolyte solution. 1. Remove the battery from the machine. 2. Clean the top of the battery with a paper towel. Note: Never fill the battery with distilled water while the battery installed in the machine.
