Maintenance - Toro Sand Pro 3040 Operator's Manual

– Use extreme caution when driving into a sand
trap, ditch, creek, or other hazard.
– Reduce your speed when making sharp turns
and when turning on hillsides.
– Avoid sudden starts and stops.
– Before backing up, look to the rear and ensure
that no one is behind the machine.
– Watch out for traffic when near or crossing
roads. Always yield the right-of-way.
•
Stay away from the discharge opening when
the machine is operating. Keep all bystanders
away from the discharge opening and don't direct
discharge toward bystanders.
•
If the engine stalls or the machine loses headway
and cannot make it to the top of a slope, do not
turn the machine around. Always back slowly
straight down the slope.
•
Do not take an injury risk! When a person or
pet appears unexpectedly in or near the operating
area, stop operation. Careless operation,
combined with terrain angles, ricochets, or
improperly positioned guards can lead to thrown
object injuries. Do not resume operation until the
area is cleared.
•
Lightning can cause severe injury or death. If
lightning is seen or thunder is heard in the area, do
not operate the machine; seek shelter.
•
Do not touch the engine or muffler while the engine
is running or soon after it is stopped. These areas
could be hot enough to cause a burn.

Maintenance

•
Remove the key from the ignition switch to prevent
accidental starting of the engine when servicing,
adjusting, or storing the machine.
•
Perform only those maintenance instructions
described in this manual. If major repairs are
ever needed or assistance is desired, contact an
Authorized Toro Distributor.
•
To reduce a potential fire hazard, keep the engine
free of excessive grease, grass, leaves, and
accumulations of dirt. Never wash a warm engine
or any electrical parts with water.
•
Be sure that the machine is in safe operating
condition by keeping nuts, bolts, and screws tight.
•
Make sure that all hydraulic line connectors are
tight and all hydraulic hoses and lines are in good
condition before applying pressure to the system.
•
Keep your body and hands away from pin hole
leaks in hydraulic lines that eject high pressure
hydraulic fluid. Use cardboard or paper to find
hydraulic leaks. Hydraulic fluid escaping under
pressure can penetrate skin and cause injury.
Fluid accidentally injected into the skin must be
surgically removed within a few hours by a doctor
familiar with this form of injury or gangrene may
result.
•
Before disconnecting or performing any work on
the hydraulic system, all pressure in the system
must be relieved by stopping the engine and
lowering the pump to the ground.
•
If the engine must be running to perform a
maintenance adjustment, keep hands, feet,
clothing, and other parts of the body away from
the fan and other moving parts.
•
Do not overspeed the engine by changing the
governor settings. To be sure of safety and
accuracy, have an Authorized Toro Distributor
check the maximum engine speed with a
tachometer.
•
The engine must be shut off before checking the
oil or adding oil to the crankcase.
•
To ensure optimum performance and safety,
always purchase genuine Toro replacement parts
and accessories to keep the machine all Toro.
Never use "will-fit" replacement parts and
accessories made by other manufacturers.
Look for the Toro logo to ensure genuineness.
Using unapproved replacement parts and
accessories could void the warranty.
