Alternating the Mowing Direction
Alternate the mowing direction to keep the grass
standing straight. This also helps disperse clippings,
which enhances decomposition and fertilization.
Mowing at Correct Intervals
Grass grows at different rates at different times of
the year. To maintain the same cutting height, mow
more often in early spring. As the grass growth rate
slows in mid summer, mow less frequently. If you
cannot mow for an extended period, first mow at a
high cutting height, then mow again 2 days later at a
lower height setting.
Using a Slower Cutting Speed
To improve cut quality, use a slower ground speed
in certain conditions.
Avoiding Cutting Too Low
When mowing uneven turf, raise the cutting height
to avoid scalping the turf.
Stopping the Machine
If you must stop the forward motion of the machine
while mowing, a clump of grass clippings may
drop onto your lawn. To avoid this, move onto a
previously cut area with the blades engaged or you
can disengage the mower deck while moving forward.
Keeping the Underside of the
Mower Deck Clean
Clean clippings and dirt from the underside of the
mower deck after each use. If grass and dirt build up
inside the mower deck, cutting quality will eventually
become unsatisfactory.
Maintaining the Blade(s)
Maintain a sharp blade throughout the cutting season
because a sharp blade cuts cleanly without tearing or
shredding the grass blades. Tearing and shredding
turns grass brown at the edges, which slows growth
and increases the chance of disease. Check the
mower blades after each use for sharpness, and
for any wear or damage. File down any nicks and
sharpen the blades as necessary. If a blade is
damaged or worn, replace it immediately with a
genuine Toro replacement blade.

After Operation

Transporting the Machine

Use a heavy-duty trailer or truck to transport the
machine. Use a full-width ramp. Ensure that the trailer
or truck has all the necessary brakes, lighting, and
marking as required by law. Please carefully read all
the safety instructions. Knowing this information could
help you or bystanders avoid injury. Refer to your
local ordinances for trailer and tie-down requirements.
WARNING
Driving on the street or roadway without
turn signals, lights, reflective markings, or a
slow-moving-vehicle emblem is dangerous
and can lead to accidents, causing personal
injury.
Do not drive the machine on a public street
or roadway.
Selecting a Trailer
WARNING
Loading a machine onto a trailer or truck
increases the possibility of tip-over and could
cause serious injury or death
• Use only a full-width ramp; do not use
individual ramps for each side of the
machine.
• Do not exceed a 12-degree angle between
the ramp and the ground or between the
ramp and the trailer or truck.
• Ensure that the length of the ramp is at
least 4 times as long as the height of the
trailer or truck bed to the ground. This
ensures that the ramp angle does not
exceed 12 degrees on flat ground.
