Removing Debris From The Traction Unit; Checking The Hydraulic Fluid - Toro 22305A Operator's Manual

Removing Debris from the
Traction Unit
IMPORTANT: Operating the engine with a
blocked grass screen, dirty or plugged cooling
fins, and/or cooling shrouds removed, will
result in engine damage from overheating.
1. Park the traction unit on a level surface, raise the
loader arms, and install the cylinder locks; refer
to Using the Cylinder Locks, page 22.
2. Stop the engine and remove the key.
3. Remove the hood; refer to Removing the Hood,
page 26.
4. Clean any debris from the grill before each use
and/or during use, if required.
5. Wipe away debris from the air cleaner before
each use and/or during use, if required.
6. Clean any debris build–up on the engine with a
brush or blower before each use.
IMPORTANT: It is preferable to blow dirt
out, rather than washing it out. If water is
used, keep it away from electrical items and
hydraulic valves. Do not use a high-pressure
washer. High–pressure washing can damage
the electrical system and hydraulic valves or
deplete grease.
7. Install the hood; refer to Installing the Hood,
page 26.
8. Remove and store the cylinder locks (refer to
Using the Cylinder Locks, page 22), and lower
the loader arms.

Checking the Hydraulic Fluid

first started and after every 25 operating hours.

hydraulic fluids, recommended for ambient
temperatures consistently below 100 F, such as Toro
Hy–Pro, Mobil Fluid 424, or other equivalent fluid.
IMPORTANT: Use only the group 1 ISO type
46/68 anti–wear hydraulic fluids. Other fluids
could cause system damage.
1. Remove the attachment, if one is installed; refer
to Removing an Attachment, page 24.
2. Park the traction unit on a level surface, raise the
loader arms, and install the cylinder locks; refer
to Using the Cylinder Locks, page 22.

4. Remove the hood; refer to Removing the Hood,
page 26.
