If using a trailer, connect it to the towing vehicle and connect the safety chains. If applicable, connect the trailer brakes and lights. Lower the ramp, ensuring that the angle between the ramp and the ground does not exceed 15 degrees (Figure 35).
• Check the parking brake adjustment. Every 500 hours • After the initial change—change the hydraulic-system filters and fluid when using Toro® HYPR-OIL™ 500 fluid (change it more often under severe conditions). • Check the battery charge. Monthly • Paint chipped surfaces.
• To ensure optimum performance and continued safety certification of the machine, use only genuine Toro replacement parts and accessories. Replacement parts and accessories made by other manufacturers could be dangerous, and such use could void the product warranty.
