General Safety Instructions

The ProPass 200 has been tested and certified by
TORO for compliance with existing safety standards
and specifications. Although hazard control and acci-
dent 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, trans-
port, maintenance and storage of the machine. Improp-
er use or maintenance of the machine can result in injury
or death. To reduce the potential for injury or death, com-
ply with the following safety instructions.

Before Operating

1. Review and understand the contents of the Opera-
tor's Manuals before starting and operating the ma-
chine. Become familiar with the controls and know how
to stop the machine and engine quickly. Additional cop-
ies of the Operator's Manual are available on the inter-
net at www.Toro.com.
2. Keep all shields, safety devices and decals in place.
If a shield, safety device or decal is defective, illegible or
damaged, repair or replace it before operating the ma-
chine. Also tighten any loose nuts, bolts or screws to en-
sure machine is in safe operating condition.

While Operating

1. The operator should be in the operators position
when operating the tow vehicle and ProPass machine.
Stay away from the ProPass when the floor and rear op-
tion (twin spinner or side conveyor) system are en-
gaged.
2. Do not run engine that powers the ProPass in a con-
fined area without adequate ventilation. Exhaust fumes
are hazardous and could possibly be deadly.
3. Do not touch engine, muffler or exhaust pipe while
engine is running or soon after it is stopped. These areas
could be hot enough to cause burns.
4. If abnormal vibration is detected, stop operation of
the ProPass immediately and determine source of
vibration. Correct problems before resuming the use of
the machine.
5. While operating, the ProPass may exceed noise lev-
els of 85dB(A) at the operator position. Hearing protec-
tion is recommended for prolonged exposure to reduce
the potential of permanent hearing damage.
6. Do not leave the ProPass unattended when it is run-
ning.
