Parking Brake Adjustment; Cleaning And Washing; Lubricating The Bearings - Toro 22602 Manuel D'installation

Parking Brake Adjustment

1. Loosen the setscrew on side of brake lever knob.
Turn knob clockwise to tighten brake; adjust
counter clockwise to loosen brake. Left wheel
should lock completely when brake is set.
2. Tighten the setscrew.
Important: The machine may be tipped
backward or on its side to facilitate access for
cleaning or service, but no longer than 2 minutes.
If the machine is held in this position for too
long, the engine can be damaged by gasoline
draining into the crankcase. Should this happen,
perform an extra oil change on the engine. Then
turn the engine over a few revolutions with the
starter handle before starting the engine again.

Cleaning and Washing

Regular cleaning and washing will increase the machine's life span. Clean the machine directly
after use, before the dirt hardens.
Check before cleaning that the fuel tank cap is properly in place to avoid getting water in the
tank.
Use care when using high-pressure sprayer because warning decals, instruction signs and the
engine can be damaged.
Important: Lubricate the cutting blade bearings after cleaning. This is particularly
important if the machine is to be stored.

Lubricating the Bearings

Cutting blade bearings should be greased after every
10 hours of operation.
Grease Type: General-purpose grease.
1. Clean the grease fittings with a rag.
2. Connect a grease gun to each fitting.
3. Lubricate two fittings one on each cutting blade
bearing.
4. Pump grease into the fittings until grease begins
to ooze out of the bearings (approximately 3
pumps).
5. Wipe up any excess grease.
Important: Pump grease in slowly and carefully to prevent damage to the bearing seals.
