1. To select high range from park, movethe shift lever upward through reverseand neutral until the letter “H” is dis-played on the liquid crystal display(LCD).

TC038

2. To select low range from high range,move the shift lever upward one posi-tion until the letter “L” is displayedon the LCD.

TC039

NOTE: The high range is for nor-mal driving with light loads. The lowrange is for carrying heavy loads ortrailer towing. Compared to HIGHrange, the LOW range position pro-vides slower speed and greatertorque to the wheels.

! WARNINGFalling from a moving vehicle couldresult in serious injury or death.Always fasten your seat belt securelyand ensure the passenger seat belt isproperly and securely fastened priorto operating or riding in this vehicle.

CAUTIONIncreasing engine RPM above idlewhile in Park will cause belt damage.

CAUTIONDo not run the starter motor for morethan eight seconds per startingattempt. The starter motor may over-heat causing severe starter motordamage. Allow 15 seconds betweenstarting attempts to allow the startermotor to cool.

CAUTIONAlways come to a complete stopbefore attempting to shift from onerange to the other or into reverse orpark. Always shift on level ground orapply the brakes.

19

3. To select reverse gear from park,move the shift lever upward one posi-tion until the letter “R” is displayedon the LCD.

TC040

4. To select neutral from park, move theshift lever upward two positions untilthe letter “N” is displayed on the LCD.

TC041

5. To select park, move the shift levercompletely down until the letter “P”is displayed on the LCD gauge.

TC042

Driving the VehicleOnce the engine is warm, the vehicle isready to be driven.

1. With the engine idling, press the footbrake pedal to apply the brake; thenselect the appropriate operating rangeand/or direction with the shift lever.

2. Release the foot brake pedal andpress the accelerator to slowly addpower to start moving.

3. To slow down or stop, release theaccelerator and press the foot brakepedal as necessary to slow or stop thevehicle.

Braking/StoppingAlways allow plenty of room and time tostop smoothly. Sometimes quick stopsare inevitable, so always be prepared.Whether you’re stopping slowly or stop-ping quickly, do this:

1. Release the accelerator; then press thefoot brake pedal to apply the brake.

2. If the wheels lock, release them for asecond; then apply them again. Onsurfaces such as ice, mud, or loosegravel, pump the brake pedal rapidly.

3. Never “ride” the brake. Even main-taining minimal pressure on the brakepedal will cause the brake pads todrag on the disc and may overheat thebrake fluid.

CAUTIONAlways shift into low range whenoperating on wet or uneven terrain,when towing or pushing heavy loads,and when using a plow. Failure to fol-low this caution may result in prema-ture V-belt failure or in damage torelated drive system components.

CAUTIONNever increase engine speed aboveidle RPM when in park or belt damagewill occur.

! WARNINGExcessive repetitive use of thehydraulic brake for high speed stopswill cause overheating of the brakefluid and premature brake pad wearwhich will result in an unexpectedloss of brakes.

ParkingParking involves following the previousrules for braking; then:

1. After the vehicle stops, shift into park.

2. Then turn off the ignition.

3. If you have to park on a hill, shift topark and block the wheels on thedownhill side.

Basic TurnsSteering effort is at its lowest in two-wheeldrive (2WD). Greater effort is needed whenin four-wheel drive (4WD). The greatesteffort is needed when in four-wheel driveand the differential (700 only) is locked.Never exceed 16 kph (10 mph) in theLOCK position.

Slow down before entering a turn. Thebasic turning technique is to drive at lowspeed and gradually adjust the amount ofsteering to suit the driving surface. Donot make sudden sharp turns on any sur-face. Refer to the sub-sections DrivingUphill, Driving Downhill, CrossingObstacles, Driving in Reverse, Skiddingor Sliding, Crossing Water, or CrossingRoads for more information.

If your vehicle ever skids sidewaysduring a turn, steer in the direction of theskid. Also, avoid hard braking or acceler-ating until you have regained directionalcontrol.

Driving UphillAlways drive straight up the hill andalways avoid hills steeper than 15°.

1. Keep both hands on the wheel.

2. Prior to starting the climb, shift intolow range, select four-wheel drive fortraction, and gradually press the accel-erator; then maintain a constant speed.

3. If the vehicle stalls on a hill, pressthe foot brake pedal to apply thebrake, shift into reverse, and slowlyback down the hill. Do not attemptto turn around on a hill.

NEVER OPERATE UP OR DOWN HILLS STEEPER THAN 15°

Driving DownhillAlways drive straight down the hill andalways avoid hills steeper than 15°.

1. Keep both hands on the wheel.

! WARNINGUse only DOT 4 approved brake fluid.Never substitute or mix differenttypes or grades of brake fluid. Brakeloss can result. Check brake fluidlevel and pad wear before each use.Brake loss can result in seriousinjury or death.

! WARNINGAvoid parking this vehicle on hills.The shift lever could inadvertently bemoved from park and allow the vehi-cle to roll downhill causing personalinjury or property damage.

! WARNINGUse care in turns - turning the steeringwheel too far or too fast can result inloss of control or a rollover. Excessivespeed, driving aggressively, or makingabrupt maneuvers, even on flat, openareas, can cause loss of control, tip-ping, or rollover. Uneven terrain, roughterrain, soft surfaces, slippery sur-faces, and paved surfaces can alsocause a loss of control or rollover in aturn. On loose or soft surfaces, allowyourself more time and distance toturn and slow down.

! WARNINGDo not attempt to turn around on a hill.

! WARNINGDriving up hills improperly can causeloss of control of the vehicle result-ing in serious injury or even death.Use extreme care when driving inhilly terrain.

21

2. Prior to descending the hill, shift intolow range and release the acceleratorto allow maximum engine braking.Do not use four-wheel drive whendescending a hill. Engine braking cancause the front wheels to slide reduc-ing steering control.

NOTE: Use minimum braking (asnecessary) to maintain a slow speed.

Crossing ObstaclesCrossing obstacles can be hazardous.There is always the possibility of thevehicle tipping. If you cannot go aroundan obstacle, follow these guidelines:

1. Stop the vehicle and shift into park.Go out to inspect the obstacle thor-oughly from both your approach sideand the exit side. If you believe youcan cross the obstacle safely, selectfour-wheel drive (4WD).

NOTE: Selecting the LOCK posi-tion on the differential lock controlmay be beneficial; however, steer-ing effort will be greatly increased.

2. Approach the obstacle as close as possi-ble to 90° to minimize vehicle tipping.

3. Keep speed slow enough to maintaincontrol but fast enough to maintainmomentum.

4. Use only enough power to cross theobstacle but still give yourself plentyof time to react to changes in condi-tions. Crawl over the obstacle.

NOTE: If there is any questionabout your ability to cross the obsta-cle safely, you should turn around ifthe ground is flat and you have roomor back up until you find a less diffi-cult path.

Driving in ReverseWhen operating in reverse, avoid sharpturns and backing down a hill. Whenusing reverse, follow these guidelines:

1. Back up slowly. It’s hard to seebehind you.

NOTE: Avoid sudden brakingwhile backing up.

2. If possible, it is advisable to havesomeone “spotting” for you whilebacking up.

3. If you are unsure of what is behindthe vehicle, place the transmission inpark and get out and inspect the areabehind.

Skidding or SlidingIf you lose control after hitting sand, ice,mud, or water, follow these guidelines:

1. Turn the steering wheel into the direc-tion of the slide.

2. Keep your foot off the brake untilyou’re out of the skid.

3. Stop and shift into four-wheel drive.

Crossing WaterThis vehicle can only operate in water upto its floorboard. Stay away from fastmoving rivers. This vehicle’s tires can bebuoyant. In deep water, the vehicle maylose traction due to floating.

1. Physically check the depth and currentof the water, especially if you can’t seethe bottom. Also, check for boulders,logs, or any other hidden obstacles.

2. Keep speed slow while maintainingmomentum.

3. Make sure you have a way out on theother side of the water.

4. Once you’ve cleared the water,briefly apply the brakes to make surethey work.

! WARNINGDo not attempt to turn around on a hill.

! WARNINGDriving down hills improperly cancause loss of control of the vehicleresulting in serious injury or death.Never drive downhill at a high rate ofspeed. Use extreme care when driv-ing in hilly terrain.

! WARNINGStriking hidden obstacles can causeserious injury or death. Reducespeed and proceed with care in unfa-miliar terrain.

22

NOTE: Light pedal pressure orpumping the brakes for a short dis-tance will aid in drying the brakes.

Crossing RoadsIt may be necessary to cross a road or high-way. If so, note the following guidelines.

1. Stop completely on the shoulder ofthe road.

2. Check both directions for traffic.

3. Crossing near a blind corner or inter-section is dangerous; avoid it if at allpossible.

4. Drive straight across to the oppositeshoulder.

5. Take into account that this vehiclecould stall while crossing; give your-self enough time to get off the road.

6. You have to assume that oncomingcars don’t see you, and if they do, theywon’t be able to predict your actions.

7. It’s illegal to cross public roads insome places. Know your local laws.

Cold Weather DrivingNOTE: Check that all control leversand the pedals move freely. Makesure that the floorboard is free of iceand snow.

1. With the transmission in neutral, movethe vehicle forward and backward tocheck that the wheels roll freely. If thevehicle will not roll, the tires may befrozen to the ground or the brake padsmay be frozen to the discs.

2. If the tires are frozen to the ground,pour warm water around them to meltthe ice.

3. If the brakes are frozen, use a suitableheating device to thaw out the brakes.

NOTE: After the brakes thaw, drythem by applying them severaltimes while riding slowly.

NOTE: After riding through water,mud, snow, or slush, it is importantto dry the brakes before parking thevehicle.

4. Practice driving in an open snow-cov-ered or ice-covered area at slowspeeds before driving on snow-cov-ered or ice-covered trails.

5. Learn how the vehicle responds tosteering and braking on the type ofterrain to be encountered on the ride.

! WARNINGFor your personal safety, it is veryimportant to wear the type and amountof cold-weather clothing according tothe coldest anticipated temperatures.

CAUTIONBefore riding, manually move thevehicle forward and backward tomake certain that all wheels roll freely.

! WARNINGDo not attempt to free frozen brakesby pouring warm water on the brakepads and housings.

! WARNINGGo slowly and be extra careful whenriding on snow-covered or ice-cov-ered terrain. Always be alert tochanging terrain conditions whenoperating the vehicle.

! WARNINGDo not operate this vehicle on a fro-zen body of water. The vehicle couldbreak through the ice causing seri-ous injury or death.

TC028

! WARNINGDriving this vehicle without extra cau-tion when towing a trailer will be haz-ardous. Trailer towing can affect thehandling and braking of the vehicle.Tow only at low speeds and neverexceed 16 kph (10 mph). Avoid sud-den accelerations and stopping ofthe vehicle. Do not make quickmaneuvers. Avoid uneven surfacesand do not tow on hills. Never carrypassengers in a trailer unless thetrailer is designed for such use andhas a rigid tow bar. Allow more stop-ping distance than when not towing atrailer.

CAUTIONIf using additional hold-down strapsin any other areas, care must betaken not to damage the vehicle.

! WARNINGUse extreme caution when operatinga machine on a ramp.Ensure that the ROPS will clear thetop of an enclosed trailer.Use only a full-width ramp; do not useindividual ramps for each side of themachine.Do not exceed a 15-degree anglebetween the ramp and the ground orbetween the ramp and the trailer ortruck.Ensure the length of ramp is at leastfour times (4X) as long as the heightof the trailer or truck bed to theground. This will ensure that rampangle does not exceed 15-degrees onflat ground.Avoid sudden acceleration or decel-eration while driving the machine ona ramp as this could cause a loss ofcontrol or a tip-over situation.

Gasoline-Oil-LubricantRecommended GasolineThe recommended gasoline to use in thisvehicle is 87 minimum octane regularunleaded. In many areas, oxygenates areadded to the gasoline. Oxygenated gaso-lines containing up to 10% ethanol or 5%methane are acceptable gasolines.

When using ethanol blended gasoline, it isnot necessary to add a gasoline antifreezesince ethanol will prevent the accumula-tion of moisture in the fuel system.

Recommended Engine/Transmission Oil

The recommended oil to use is Toro 0W-40 All Weather synthetic engine oil,which has been specifically formulatedfor use in this engine. Although Toro 0W-40 All Weather synthetic engine oil is theonly oil recommended for use in thisengine, use of any API certified SM 0W-40 synthetic oil is acceptable.

OILCHARTJ

NOTE: If the vehicle will be oper-ated under severe conditions(heavy pulling or loading, extremelyhigh ambient air temperatures, orextended high-speed operation),Toro recommends installing anengine oil cooler kit if not soequipped. For additional informa-tion, see your local authorized ToroROV dealer.Recommended Front Differential/Rear Drive LubricantNOTE: Toro recommends the useof genuine Toro lubricants.

The recommended front differential/reardrive lubricant is SAE approved 80W-90hypoid. This lubricant meets all of thelubrication requirements of this vehicle.

Filling Gas Tank

Since gasoline expands as its temperatureincreases, the gas tank must be filled toits rated capacity only. Expansion roommust be maintained in the tank particu-larly if the tank is filled with cold gaso-line and then moved to a warm area.

Allow the engine to cool before filling thegas tank. Care must be taken not to over-fill the tank past the full mark. If over-filled, gas may leak out creating a firehazard.

CAUTIONDo not use white gas. Only recom-mended gasoline additives should beused.

CAUTIONAny oil used in place of the recom-mended oil could cause seriousengine damage. Do not use oils whichcontain graphite or molybdenum addi-tives. These oils can adversely affectclutch operation. Also, not recom-mended are racing, vegetable, non-detergent, and castor-based oils.

CAUTIONAny lubricant used in place of therecommended lubricant could causeserious front differential/rear drivedamage.

! WARNINGAlways fill the gas tank in a well-venti-lated area. Never add gasoline to thegas tank near any open flames or withthe engine running or hot. DO NOTSMOKE while filling the gas tank.

ROV353A

Tighten the gas tank cap securely afterfilling the tank.

Engine Break-In After the completion of the break-inperiod, the engine oil and oil filter shouldbe changed. Other maintenance afterbreak-in should include checking of allprescribed adjustments and tightening ofall fasteners. At the discretion andexpense of the owner/operator, the vehi-cle may be taken to an authorized ToroROV dealer for this initial service.

New vehicles and engines require a“break-in” period. The first month ismost critical to the life of this vehicle.Proper operation during this break-inperiod will help assure maximum life andperformance from this vehicle.

During the first 10 hours of operation,always use less than ½ throttle. Varying theengine RPM during the break-in periodallows the components to “load” (aiding theengine/transmission component matingprocess) and then “unload” (allowing com-ponents to cool). Although it is essential toplace some stress on the engine compo-nents during break-in, care should be takennot to overload the engine too often. Do notpull a trailer during the break-in period.

When the engine starts, allow it to warm upproperly. Idle the engine several minutesuntil the engine has reached normal operat-ing temperature. Do not idle the engine forexcessively long periods of time.

Burnishing Brake PadsBrake pads must be burnished to achievefull braking effectiveness. Braking dis-tance will be extended until brake pads areproperly burnished.

Liquid Cooling SystemNOTE: Debris in the engine com-partment or packed between the cool-ing fins of the radiator can reducecooling capability. Using a gardenhose, wash the radiator to removeany debris preventing air flow.

The cooling system capacity can be foundin the specification charts. The cooling sys-tem should be inspected daily for leakageand damage. If leakage or damage isdetected, take the vehicle to an authorizedToro ROV dealer for service. Also, thecoolant level should be checked periodi-cally.

NOTE: High engine RPM, low vehi-cle speed, or heavy load can raiseengine temperature. Decreasingengine RPM, reducing load, andselecting an appropriate transmis-sion gear can lower the temperature.

When filling the cooling system, use acoolant/water mixture which will satisfythe coldest anticipated weather conditionsof the area in accordance with the coolantmanufacturer’s recommendations.

NOTE: Use a good quality, biode-gradable glycol-based, automotive-type antifreeze.

While the cooling system is being filled,air pockets may develop; therefore,remove the bleed plug on the coolantpipe at the front of the engine allowingtrapped air to escape.

TC024A

When pure coolant (no air) flows fromthe bleed hole, install the bleed plug,tighten securely, and then fill the coolingsystem to the bottom of the stand pipe inthe radiator neck. After operating thevehicle for the initial 5-10 minutes, stopthe engine, allow the engine to cooldown, and check the coolant level. Addcoolant as necessary.

Shock AbsorbersEach shock absorber should be visiblychecked weekly for excessive fluid leak-age (some seal leakage may be observedbut it does not indicate the shock is inneed of replacement), cracks or breaks inthe lower case, or a bent shock rod. If anyone of these conditions is detected,replacement is necessary.

NOTE: When the vehicle is oper-ated in extremely cold weather (-23°C/-10°F or colder), a small amount ofleakage may be present. Unless theleakage is excessive, replacement isnot necessary.

This vehicle is equipped with adjustableshock absorbers in the front and rear toallow for different driving and loadingconditions.

The front shock absorbers (700) or frontand rear shock absorbers (500) have anadjustment sleeve with five preloadadjustment positions that can be turnedwith a special spanner wrench to increaseor decrease coil spring tension.

CAUTIONDo not use a pressure washer to cleanthe radiator core. The pressure maybend or flatten the fins causingrestricted air flow, and electrical com-ponents on the radiator could be dam-aged. Use only a garden hose withspray nozzle at normal tap pressure.

CAUTIONContinued operation of the vehicle withhigh engine temperature may result inpremature wear or engine damage.

! WARNINGNever check the coolant level whenthe engine is hot or the cooling sys-tem is under pressure.

38

To adjust the spring force on the theseshock absorbers, rotate the pre-loadadjustment sleeve with a suitable spannerwrench until desired spring tension isachieved.

PR015

On the 700, the rear shock absorber has aspring force adjustment nut with aninfinite adjustment from softest to mostfirm. If the spring action is too soft or toostiff, adjust the nut using an appropriatespanner as illustrated.

HDX085A

NOTE: Before attempting toadjust suspension, clean dirt anddebris from the sleeve and removeload from the suspension; then usethe spanner wrench to adjust thesleeve to the desired position.

General LubricationCablesNone of the cables require lubrication;however, it is advisable to lubricate theends of the cables periodically with agood cable lubricant.

Cargo Box LatchesPeriodically apply a light coat of greaseto the latches and pins. Do not overgrease.

Engine/Transmission Oil and Filter NOTE: Refer to the recommendedoil viscosity chart (on page 34) inthis manual for the proper engine oil.
