Think Safety First
Avoid unexpected starting of engine...
Always turn off the engine and disconnect the spark
plug wire(s) before cleaning, adjusting, or repair.
Avoid lacerations and amputations...
Stay clear of all moving parts whenever the engine is
running. Treat all normally moving parts as if they were
moving whenever the engine is running or has the
potential to start.
Avoid burns...
Do not touch the engine, muffler, or other components
which may increase in temperature during operation,
while the unit is running or shortly after it has been
running.
Avoid fires and explosions...
Avoid spilling fuel and never smoke while working with
any type of fuel or lubricant. Wipe up any spilled fuel or
oil immediately. Never remove the fuel cap or add fuel
when the engine is running. Always use approved,
labeled containers for storing or transporting fuel and
lubricants.
Avoid asphyxiation...
Never operate an engine in a confined area without
proper ventilation.
Avoid injury from batteries...
Battery acid is poisonous and can cause burns. Avoid
contact with skin, eyes, and clothing. Battery gases
can explode. Keep cigarettes, sparks, and flames away
from the battery.
Avoid injury due to inferior parts...
Use only original equipment parts to ensure that
important safety criteria are met.
Avoid injury to bystanders...
Always clear the area of bystanders before starting or
testing powered equipment.
Avoid injury due to projectiles...
Always clear the area of sticks, rocks, or any other
debris that could be picked up and thrown by the
powered equipment.
Avoid modifications...
Never alter or modify any part unless it is a factory
approved procedure.
Avoid unsafe operation...
Always test the safety interlock system after making
adjustments or repairs on the machine. Refer to the

Transaxle Specifi cations
Lubrication SAE 20W-50 API Classifi cation SH/CD
Oil Capacity 1.6 to 1.7 qt. (1.5 to 1.6 liters)
Oil Level The transaxle is a sealed system and does not require periodic checking. Check oil at the oil
fi ll plug location only. Do not check the oil at the vent tube. Checking oil at the vent tube will
only give you a false reading or no reading at all, since this is the oil expansion area. If the oil
needs to be checked, the transaxle must be removed to check oil level and IT CAN BE ONLY
CHECKED COLD. There is a fi ll plug located at the top of the transaxle. To check the level of
the oil, remove the fi ll plug. Oil level should be 3/4” (1.9cm) from the top of the oil fi ll plug.
Fluid Change The transaxle is factory fi lled and does not require regular oil changes.

Torque Specifications
Recommended fastener torque values are listed in the
following tables. For critical applications, as
determined by Toro, either the recommended torque or
a torque that is unique to the application is clearly
identified and specified in the service manual.
These torque specifications for the installation and
tightening of fasteners shall apply to all fasteners which
do not have a specific requirement identified in the
service manual. The following factors shall be
considered when applying torque: cleanliness of the
fastener, use of a thread sealant (Loctite), degree of
lubrication on the fastener, presence of a prevailing
torque feature, hardness of the surface underneath of
the fastener’s head, or similar condition which affects
the installation.
As noted in the following tables, torque values should
be reduced by 25% for lubricated fasteners to
achieve the similar stress as a dry fastener. Torque
values may also have to be reduced when the fastener
is threaded into aluminum or brass. The specific
torque value should be determined based on the
aluminum or brass material strength, fastener size,
length of thread engagement, etc.
The standard method of verifying torque shall be
performed by marking a line on the fastener (head or
nut) and mating part, then back off fastener 1/4 of a
turn. Measure the torque required to tighten the
fastener until the lines match up.

Standard Torque for Dry, Zinc Plated, and Steel Fasteners (Inch Series)
Note: Reduce torque values listed in the table above
by 25% for lubricated fasteners. Lubricated fasteners
are defined as threads coated with a lubricant such as
oil, graphite, or thread sealant such as Loctite.
Note: Torque values may have to be reduced when
installing fasteners into threaded aluminum or brass.
The specific torque value should be determined based
on the fastener size, the aluminum or base material
strength, length of thread engagement, etc.
Note: The nominal torque values listed above for
Grade 5 and 8 fasteners are based on 75% of the
