  • Page 10: Safety Instructions

    Safety Instructions The Groundsmaster 4500-D and 4700-D are tested and certified by Toro for compliance with existing safety standards and specifications. Although hazard control and accident prevention partially are dependent upon the design and configuration of the machine, these factors are also dependent upon the awareness, concern and proper training of the personnel involved in the operation, transport, maintenance and storage of the machine.
  • Page 11: Before Operating The Machine

    Become familiar with the controls and know how to stop the machine and engine quickly. Additional copies of the Operator’s Manuals are available at www.toro.com. • Never allow children to operate the machine. Never allow adults to operate the machine without proper instructions.
  • Page 12: While Operating The Machine

    C. Apply the parking brake. D. Stop engine and remove key from switch. 7. Toro recommends that anytime the machine is parked (short or long term), the cutting decks should be lowered to the ground. This relieves hydraulic pressure from the deck lift circuit and eliminates the risk of the cutting decks unexpectedly lowering to the ground.
  • Page 13: Maintenance And Service

    16. At the time of manufacture, the machine conformed to the safety standards for riding mowers. To assure optimum performance and continued safety certification of the machine, use genuine Toro replacement parts and accessories. Replacement parts and accessories made by other manufacturers may result in non-conformance with the safety standards and the warranty may be voided.
  • Page 14 Maintenance and Service (continued) 18. When welding on machine, disconnect all battery cables to prevent damage to machine electronic equipment. Disconnect negative battery cable first and positive cable last. Also, disconnect wire harness connector from both of the TEC controllers, disconnect and remove the engine ECM and disconnect the terminal connector from the alternator.
  • Page 15: Jacking Instructions

    Jacking Instructions CAUTION When changing attachments, tires or performing other service, use correct jacks and supports. Make sure machine is parked on a solid, level surface such as a concrete floor. Prior to raising machine, remove any attachments that may interfere with the safe and proper raising of the machine.

    Service and Repairs General Precautions for Removing and Installing Hydraulic System Components Before Repair or Replacement of Components 1. Before removing any parts from the hydraulic system, park machine on a level surface, apply parking brake, lower cutting decks or attachments and stop engine.
  • Page 190 After Repair or Replacement of Components (continued) oil before starting engine. This will ensure that internal components have adequate lubrication during initial operation. 7. After disconnecting or replacing any hydraulic components, operate machine functions slowly until air is out of system (see Charge Hydraulic System (page 5–95)).
  • Page 191: Check Hydraulic Lines And Hoses

    Check Hydraulic Lines and Hoses WARNING 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 sufficient force to penetrate the skin and cause serious injury.
  • Page 192: Priming Hydraulic Pumps

    Priming Hydraulic Pumps Whenever the hydraulic system is flushed, the hydraulic system is charged or hydraulic components are installed, it is important to properly prime the hydraulic pumps. Hydraulic pump priming ensures that the gear pump and piston (traction) pump have adequate oil during initial start−up and running. The pumps can be primed by using a remote starter switch (see Special Tools (page 2–16)) to crank...

    Flush Hydraulic System IMPORTANT Flush the hydraulic system any time there is a severe component failure or the system is contaminated. Contaminated oil may appear milky or black or may contain metal particles. IMPORTANT Flush hydraulic system when changing from petroleum base hydraulic fluid to a biodegradable fluid.
  • Page 194 Flush Hydraulic System (continued) 6. Connect all hydraulic hoses, lines and components that were disconnected while draining system. IMPORTANT When filling hydraulic reservoir, use only hydraulic fluids specified in Operator’s Manual. Other fluids could cause system damage. 7. Fill hydraulic reservoir with new hydraulic fluid. 8.
  • Page 195: Filtering Closed−Loop Traction Circuit

    To effectively remove contamination from closed−loop traction circuit, use of the Toro high flow hydraulic filter and hydraulic hose kits are recommended (see Special Tools (page 2–16)).

  • Page 356 Battery Charging To minimize possible damage to the battery and allow the battery to be fully charged, the slow charging method is presented here. This charging method can be accomplished with a constant current battery charger which is readily available. CAUTION Follow the manufacturer’s instructions when using a battery charger.
  • Page 357 Battery Charging (continued) 3. Following the battery charger manufacturer’s instructions, connect the charger cables to the battery. Make sure a good connection is made. 4. Charge the battery following the battery charger manufacturer’s instructions. 5. While charging, occasionally check the battery. If the electrolyte is violently gassing or spewing or if the battery case feels hot to the touch, the charging rate must be lowered or temporarily stopped.
