Safety Instructions
The Workman MD and MDX series vehicles are de-
signed and tested to offer safe service when operated
and maintained properly. Although hazard control and
accident prevention partially are dependent upon the
design and configuration of the machine, these factors
are also dependent upon the awareness, concern and
proper training of the personnel involved in the opera-
tion, transport, maintenance and storage of the ma-
chine. Improper use or maintenance of the machine can
result in injury or death.
Read and understand the contents of the Operators
Manual before starting and operating the machine. Be-
come familiar with all controls and know how to stop it
quickly. Additional copies of the Operator’s Manual are
available on the internet at www.Toro.com.
The safety alert symbol means
CAUTION, WARNING or DANGER
“personal safety instruction”. Read
and understand the instruction because it has to
do with safety. Failure to comply with the instruc-
tion may result in personal injury.
WARNING
To reduce the potential for injury or death, comply
with the following safety instructions.
WARNING
The Workman is an off--highway vehicle only. It is
not designed, equipped or manufactured for use
on public streets, roads or highways.
Supervisors Responsibilities
1. Make sure operators are thoroughly trained and fa-
miliar with the Operator’s Manual and all labels on the
vehicle.
2. Be sure to establish your own special procedures
and work rules for unusual operating conditions (e.g.
slopes too steep for vehicle operation).
Before Operating
1. Read and understand the contents o f the Operator’s
Manual and Operators DVD before starting and operat-
ing the vehicle. Become familiar with the controls and
know how to stop the vehicle and engine quickly. Addi-
tional copies of the Operator’s Manual are available on
the internet at www.Toro.com.
2. Keep all shields, safety devices and decals in place.
If a shield, safety device or decal is defective, illegible or
damaged, repair or replace it before operating the ve-
hicle. Also, tighten any loose nuts, bolts or screws to en-
sure vehicle is in safe operating condition.
3. Since fuel used in Workman vehicles is highly flam-
mable, handle it carefully:
A. Store fuel in containers specifically designed for
this purpose.
B. Do not remove vehicle fuel tank cap while engine
is hot or running.
C. Do not smoke while handling fuel.
D. Fill fuel tank outdoors and only to within an inch of
the top of the tank, not the filler neck. Do not overfill
the fuel tank.
E. Clean up any spilled fuel.
Workman MD/MDX Page 1 -- 3 Safety
While Operating
1. Sit on the operator seat when starting and operating
the vehicle.
2. Before starting the engine:
A. Sit on operator’s seat and apply the parking
brake.
B. Turn ignition key to ON.
C. Depress accelerator pedal to start engine and en-
gage drive system.
3. Do not run engine in a confined area without ade-
quate ventilation. Exhaust fumes are hazardous and
could possibly be deadly.
4. Do not touch engine, muffler or exhaust pipe while
engine is running or soon after it is stopped. These areas
could be hot enough to cause burns.
5. Before getting off the seat:
A. Stop movement of the vehicle.
B. Turn ignition key to OFF and wait for all move-
ment to stop.
C. Remove key from ignition switch.
D. Apply parking brake.
E. Do not park on slopes unless wheels are chocked
or blocked.
Maintenance and Service
1. Before servicing or making adjustments, turn all ac-
cessories off, release pressure from accelerator pedal,
allow engine to stop, set parking brake and remove key
from the ignition switch.
2. Make sure vehicle is in safe operating condition by
keeping all nuts, bolts and screws tight.
3. Never store the vehicle or fuel container inside
where there is an open flame, such as near a water heat-
er or furnace.
4. If major repairs are ever needed or assistance is de-
sired, contact an Authorized Toro Distributor.
5. To reduce potential fire hazard, keep engine area
free of excessive grease, grass, leaves and dirt.
6. If engine must be running to perform maintenance or
an adjustment, keep clothing, hands, feet and other
parts of the body away from moving parts. Keep by-
standers away.
7. Do not overspeed the engine by changing governor
setting. To assure safety and accuracy, check maximum
engine speed.
8. Shut engine off before checking or adding oil to the
engine crankcase.
9. Disconnect battery before servicing the vehicle. Dis-
connect negative (--) battery cable first and positive (+)
cable last. If battery voltage is required for troubleshoot-
ing or test procedures, temporarily connect the battery.
Reconnect positive (+) cable first and negative (--) cable
last.
10.Battery acid is poisonous and can cause burns.
Avoid contact with skin, eyes and clothing. Protect your
face, eyes and clothing when working with a battery.
11. Battery gases can explode. Keep cigarettes, sparks
and flames away from the battery.
12.To assure optimum performance and continued
safety of the vehicle, use genuine Toro replacement
parts and accessories. R eplacement parts and acces-
sories made by other manufacturers may result in non-
conformance with safety standards, and the warranty
may be voided.
13.When raising the vehicle to change tires or to per-
form other service, use correct blocks, hoists and jacks.
Make sure vehicle is parked on a solid level surface such
as a concrete floor. Prior to raising the vehicle, remove
any attachments that may interfere with the safe and
proper raising of the vehicle. Always chock or block
wheels. Use appropriate jack stands to support the
raised vehicle. If the vehicle is not properly supported by
jack stands, the vehicle may move or fall, which may re-
sult in personal injury (see Jacking Instructions in this
section).

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 spe-
cified in this Service Manual.
These Torque Specifications for the installation and
tightening of fasteners s hall apply to all fasteners which
do not have a specific requirement identified in this Ser-
vice Manual. The following factors shall be considered
when applying torque: cleanliness of the fastener, use
of a thread sealant (e.g. Loctite), degree of lubrication
on the fastener, presence of a prevailing torque feature,
hardness of the surface underneath 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 s imilar 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 en-
gagement, etc.
The standard method of verifying torque shall be per-
formed 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.

NOTE: The Workman MDX is equipped with an engine
governor. Refer to the Briggs & Stratton Repair Manual
at the end of this chapter for governor information on
these machines.
Depressing the accelerator pedal rotates the engine
governor bellcrank which tensions the main governor
spring to increase engine speed. Releasing the acceler-
ator pedal decreases governor spring tension to r educe
engine speed.
1. Park machine on a level surface, stop engine, en-
gage parking brake and remove key from the ignition
switch.
2. Lift cargo box and prop with rod to gain access to the
engine.
3. When the accelerator pedal is fully depressed the
engine governor bellcrank mechanism should have a
gap from 0.030” to 0.080” (0.8 to 2.0 mm) (Fig. 2 ). If nec-
essary, adjust jam nuts on accelerator cable so that gap
is correct.
4. After throttle cable adjustment is correct, lower and
secure cargo box.
