DANGER
Because diesel fuel is flammable, use caution when
storing or handling it. Do not smoke while filling
the fuel tank. Do not fill the fuel tank while the
engine is running, hot, or when the machine is in an
enclosed area. Always fill the fuel tank outside and
wipe up any spilled diesel fuel before starting the
engine. Store the fuel in a clean, safety-approved
container and keep the cap in place. Use Diesel
fuel for the engine only; not for any other purpose.

Check the Transmission Fluid
The front axle housing acts as the reservoir for the
system. The transmission and axle housing are
shipped from the factory with 4.7 l (5 quarts) of
Mobil 424 hydraulic fluid. However, check the
level of transmission oil before first starting the
engine and daily thereafter.
1.
Position the machine on a level surface, lower
the cutting units and stop the engine.
2.
Remove the access panel behind the foot rest.
3.
Unscrew the dipstick cap from the transmission
filler neck and wipe it with a clean cloth.
Screw the dipstick into the filler neck. Remove
the dipstick and check the oil level. If the level
is not within 1.2 cm (1/2 inch) from the groove
in the dipstick, add enough oil to raise it to the
groove mark. DO NOT OVERFILL by more
than .6 cm (1/4 inch) above the groove.

Check the Hydraulic Fluid
The hydraulic system driving the reels is designed
to operate on anti-wear hydraulic fluid. The
machine's reservoir is filled at the factory with 32.2
l (8.5 gallons) of Mobil 424 hydraulic fluid. Check
the level of hydraulic fluid before the first
starting the engine and daily thereafter.
Note: A red dye additive for the hydraulic system
oil is available in 20 ml bottles. One bottle is
sufficient for 15–22 l of hydraulic oil. Order Part
No. 44-2500 from your authorized Toro distributor.
