Toro 20332 Operator's Manual | Page 3
•
Always wear eye protection when operating machine.
•
See manufacturer's instructions for proper operation and
installation of accessories. Only use accessories approved
by the manufacturer.
Slope Operation
Slopes are a major factor related to slip and fall accidents,
which can result in severe injury. Operation on all slopes
require extra caution. If you feel uneasy on a slope, do not
mow it.
•
Mow across the face of slopes; never up and down.
Exercise extreme caution when changing direction on
slopes.
•
Watch for holes, ruts, bumps, rocks, or other hidden
objects. Uneven terrain could cause a slip and fall
accident. Tall grass can hide obstacles.
•
Do not mow on wet grass or excessively steep slopes.
Poor footing could cause a slip and fall accident.
•
Do not mow near drop-offs, ditches, or embankments.
You could lose your footing or balance.
Children
Tragic accidents can occur if the operator is not alert to the
presence of children. Children are often attracted to the
machine and the mowing activity. Never assume that children
will remain where you last saw them.
•
Keep children out of the mowing area and under the
watchful care of a responsible adult other than the
operator.
•
Be alert and turn mower off if a child enters the area.
•
Never allow children to operate the machine.
•
Use extra care when approaching blind corners, shrubs,
trees, or other objects that may block your view of a child.
Service
Safe Handling of Gasoline
To avoid personal injury or property damage, use
extreme care in handling gasoline. Gasoline is extremely
flammable and the vapors are explosive.
•
Extinguish all cigarettes, cigars, pipes, and other sources
of ignition.
•
Use only an approved gasoline container.
•
Never remove gas cap or add fuel with the engine
running. Allow engine to cool before refueling.
•
Never refuel the machine indoors.
•
Never store the machine or fuel container where there is
an open flame, spark, or pilot light such as on a water
heater or on other appliances.
•
Never fill containers inside a vehicle or on a truck or
trailer bed with a plastic liner. Always place containers on
the ground away from your vehicle before filling.
•
Remove gas-powered equipment from the truck or trailer
and refuel it on the ground. If this is not possible, then
refuel such equipment with a portable container, rather
than from a gasoline dispenser nozzle.
•
Keep the nozzle in contact with the rim of the fuel tank
or container opening at all times until fueling is complete.
Do not use a nozzle lock-open device.
•
If fuel is spilled on clothing, change clothing immediately.
•
Never overfill fuel tank. Replace gas cap and tighten
securely.
WARNING
Exhaust contains carbon monoxide, an odorless,
deadly poison that can kill you.
Do not run the engine indoors or in an enclosed
area.
General Service
•
Never operate machine in a closed area.
•
Keep all nuts and bolts tight to be sure the equipment is
in safe working condition.
•
Never tamper with safety devices. Check their proper
operation regularly.
•
Keep machine free of grass, leaves, or other debris
build-up. Clean up oil or fuel spillage and remove any
fuel-soaked debris. Allow machine to cool before storing.
•
If you strike a foreign object, stop and inspect the
machine. Repair, if necessary, before starting.
•
Never make any adjustments or repairs with the engine
running. Disconnect the spark plug wire and ground
against engine to prevent unintended starting.
•
Check grass catcher components and the discharge guard
frequently and replace with manufacturer's recommended
parts, when necessary.
•
Mower blades are sharp. Wrap the blade or wear gloves,
and use extra caution when servicing them.
•

the engine.
•

necessary.
