Operating Tips
General Tips
•
Review the safety instructions and read this manual
carefully before operating the machine.
•
Clear the area of sticks, stones, wire, branches, and other
debris that the blade could hit and throw.
•
Keep everyone, especially children and pets, away from
the area of operation.
•
Avoid striking trees, walls, curbs, or other solid objects.
Never deliberately mow over any object.
•
If the machine strikes an object or starts to vibrate,
immediately shut off the engine, disconnect the wire from
the spark plug, and examine the machine for damage.
•
Maintain a sharp blade throughout the cutting season.
Periodically file down nicks on the blade.
•
Replace the blade when necessary with an original Toro
replacement blade.
•
Mow only dry grass or leaves. Wet grass and leaves tend
to clump on the yard and can cause the machine to plug
or the engine to stall.
WARNING
Wet grass or leaves can cause serious injury if
you slip and contact the blade.
Mow only in dry conditions.
•
Clean under the machine after each mowing; refer to
Cleaning under the Machine (page
•
Keep the engine in good running condition.
•
Clean the air filter frequently. Mulching stirs up more
clippings and dust which clogs the air filter and reduces
engine performance.
•
Set the engine speed to the fastest position for the best
cutting results.
WARNING
Operating a machine with its engine running
at a speed greater than the factory setting can
cause the machine to throw a part of the blade or
engine at you or bystanders, resulting in serious
personal injury or death.
– Do not change the engine speed setting.
– If you suspect the engine speed is faster
than normal, contact an Authorized Service
Dealer.
Cutting Grass
•
Grass grows at different rates at different times of the
year. In the summer heat, it is best to cut grass at the 64
mm (2-1/2 inch), 76 mm (3 inch), or 89 mm (3-1/2 inch)
cutting-height settings. Cut only about a third of the grass
