Adjusting the Traction Cable (page 18)) or contact your
authorized Toro dealer.
Driving Forward
1. Place the speed selector lever to the desired forward
position, making sure it locks in the notch (Figure 6).
Note: If the ground speed is too fast, debris or snow
will pile up in front of the broom causing the broom
to bulldoze instead of sweep. This can damage the
bristles and the drive line.
2. Slowly squeeze the left hand traction drive lever to the
handle (Figure 7).
Note: Holding down the traction drive lever against
the handle engages the traction drive to both wheels.
3. To stop the traction drive, release the traction drive
lever.
4. To move forward, engage the traction drive and slowly
squeeze the left hand traction lever to the handle
(Figure 8). Momentarily squeezing and releasing the
left or right wheel clutch lever allows for steering
adjustments to keep the machine going in a straight
line, especially in deep snow.
To turn right, lift up on the right wheel clutch lever
and squeeze it toward the handle. This disengages the
drive to the right wheel while the left wheel continues
driving, and the machine turns to the right.

Note: Similarly, squeezing the left wheel clutch lever
turns the machine to the left.
When you complete the turn, release the wheel clutch
lever. The drive engages both wheels (Figure 9).
5. To stop the traction drive, release the traction drive
lever.
Driving Rearward
1. Place the speed selector lever to the desired rearward
position, making sure it locks in the notch.
2. To move rearward, engage the traction drive and slowly
squeeze the left hand traction lever to the handle.
Momentarily squeezing and releasing the left or right
wheel clutch lever allows for steering adjustments to
keep the machine going in a straight line.
To turn right, squeeze the right wheel clutch lever
toward the handle. This disengages the drive to the
right wheel while the left wheel continues driving, and
the machine turns to the right.
Note: Similarly, squeezing the left wheel clutch lever
turns the machine to the left.
Squeezing both wheel clutch levers simultaneously disengages
the drive to both wheels. This enables machine to be moved
rearward without stopping to shift it into a reverse gear. It
also allows you to maneuver and transport the machine more
easily when the engine is not running.
