Rotate the ignition key to START. Engine should
crank. If engine cranks, proceed to step 3. If engine
does not crank, there may e a malfunction in the
interlock system.
Raise off the seat and engage the PTO switch while
the engine is running. The engine should stop within 2
seconds. If engine stops, the switch is operating
correctly; thus, proceed to step 4. If engine does not
stop, there is a malfunction in the interlock system.
Raise off the seat and depress the traction pedal
while engine is running the PTO lever is disengaged.
The engine should stop within 2 seconds. If engine
stops, the switch is operating correctly; thus, continue
operation. If engine does not stop, there is a
malfunction in the interlock system.
Practice driving the GROUNDSMASTER 1000L
efore initial operation ecause it has a hydrostatic
transmission and its characteristics are different than
some turf maintenance machines. Some points to
consider when operating the traction unit and cutting
unit are the transmission, engine speed, load on the
cutting lades, and the importance of the rakes.
To maintain enough power for the traction unit and
cutting unit while mowing, regulate traction pedal to
keep engine rpm high and somewhat constant. A good
rule to follow is: decrease ground speed as the load on
the cutting lades increases; and increase ground
speed as load on the lades decreases. This allows the
engine, working with the transmission, to sense the
proper ground speed while maintaining high lade tip
speed necessary for good qualityĆofĆcut. Therefore,
allow traction pedal to move upward as engine speed
decreases, and depress pedal slowly as speed
increases. By comparison, when driving from one work
area to anotherĊwith no load and cutting unit
raisedĊhave throttle in FAST position and depress
traction pedal slowly ut fully to attain maximum
ground speed.

This product may exceed noise levels of 85
dB(A) at the operator position. Ear protectors are
recommended for prolon ed exposure to reduce the
potential of permanent hearin dama e.
Another characteristic to consider is the operation of
the brakes. The brakes can be used to assist in turnin
the machine; however, use them carefully, especially
on soft or wet rass because the turf may be torn
accidentally. The brakes can be used to reat
advanta e to control the direction of the cuttin unit
when trimmin alon fences or similar objects. The
other benefit of the brakes is to maintain traction. For
example; in some slope conditions, the uphill wheel
slips and loses traction. If this situation occurs, depress
uphill brake pedal radually and intermittently until the
uphill wheel stops slippin ; thus, increasin traction on
the downhill wheel. If independent brakin is not
desired, en a e the lever on left brake pedal with ri ht
pedal. This provides simultaneous brakin at both
wheels.
Before stoppin the en ine, disen a e all control and
move throttle to SLOW. Movin throttle to SLOW
reduces hi h en ine speed, noise and vibration. Turn
i nition key to OFF to stop the en ine.
In an emer ency, the traction unit can be pushed or
towed for a very short distance. However, Toro does
not recommend this as standard procedure.
