machine and engine quickly. A free replacement
manual is available by sending the complete model
and serial number to:
he oro Company
8111 Lyndale Avenue South
Minneapolis, Minnesota 55420-1196.
Never allow children to operate the machine. Do
not allow adults to operate machine without proper
instruction. Only trained operators who have read this
manual should operate this machine.

Never operate the machine when under the
influence of drugs or alcohol.
Remove all de ris or other o jects that might e
picked up and thrown y the lades or fast moving
components from other attached implements. Keep all
ystanders away from operating area.
Keep all shields, safety devices and decals in
place. If a shield, safety device or decal is defective,
illegi le or damaged, repair or replace it efore
operating the machine. Also tighten any loose nuts,
olts or screws to ensure machine is in safe operating
condition.
Always wear su stantial shoes. Do not operate
machine while wearing sandals, tennis shoes,
sneakers or when arefoot. Do not wear loose fitting
clothing that could get caught in moving parts and
possi ly cause personal injury. Wearing safety
glasses, safety shoes, long pants and a helmet is
advisa le and required y some local ordinances and
insurance regulations.
Check interlock switches daily for proper operation
(Refer To Checking Interlock Switches, Page 18). Do
not rely entirely on safety switches Ćshut off engine
efore getting off seat. If a switch fails, replace it efore
operating the machine. The interlock system is for your
protection, so do not ypass it. Replace all interlock
switches every two years. Interlock switches should e
adjusted so:
A. Engine cannot e started unless traction pedal
is released (neutral position)Ċand PTO lever is
DISENGAGED (off position).
B. Engine stops if operator gets off seat when
traction pedal is depressed.
C. Engine stops if operator gets off seat when
PTO lever is ENGAGED (on position).
Grass deflectors must e installed in lowest
position on side discharge units.
Since diesel fuel is highly flamma le, handle it
carefully:
A. Use an approved fuel container.
B. Do not remove 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
from the top of the tank, not the filler neck. Do not
overfill.
E. Wipe up any spilled fuel.
Sit on the seat when starting and operating the
machine.
Before starting the engine:
A. Engage the parking rake.
B. Make sure traction pedal is in NEUTRAL and
PTO switch in OFF position.
C. After engine is started, release parking rake
and keep foot off traction pedal. Machine must not
move. If movement is evident, the neutral return
mechanism is adjusted incorrectly; therefore, shut
engine off and adjust until machine does not move
when traction pedal is released.
Seating capacity is one person. Therefore, never
carry passengers.
Do not run engine in a confined area without
adequate ventilation. Exhaust fumes are hazardous
and could possi ly e deadly.
Make sure seat elt can e removed quickly if
machine is driven or rolls into a pond or lake.
Traverse slopes carefully. Do not start or stop
suddenly when traveling uphill or downhill.
When operating a 4 wheel drive machine or any
machine on slopes, y anks or drop offs, always have
ROPS (roll over protection system) installed.
When operating a machine with ROPS (roll over
protection system) always use seat elt and make sure
seat pivot retaining pin is installed.
Operator must e skilled and trained in how to
drive on hillsides. Failure to use caution on slopes or
hills may cause loss of control and vehicle to tip or roll
possi ly resulting in personal injury or death.
This product may exceed noise levels of 85 dB(A)
at the operator position. Ear protectors are
recommended for prolonged exposure to reduce the
potential of permanent hearing damage.
Using the machine demands attention and to
prevent loss of control:
A. Operate only in daylight or when there is good
artificial light.
B. Drive slowly. Avoid sudden stops and starts.
C. Watch for holes or other hidden hazards.
D. Look ehind machine efore acking up.
E. Do not drive close to a sand trap, ditch, creek
or other hazard.
F. Reduce speed when making sharp turns and
turning on a hillside.
G. The cutting deck must e lowered when going
down slopes for steering control.

!
Check carefully for overhead clearances such as
branches, doorways, electrical wires, before driving
under any ob ects and do not contact them.
If engine stalls or loses headway and cannot make
it to the top of a slope, do not turn machine around.
Always back slowly straight down the slope.
Never raise the cutting unit or other attached
implement while the blades or other parts are rotating.
The grass deflector must always be installed and in
the lowest position on the cutting unit. This product is
designed to drive ob ects into the ground where they
lose energy quickly in grassy areas.
! When a person or pet appears
unexpectedly in or near the mowing area,
. Careless operation, combined with terrain
angles, ricochets, or improperly positioned guards can
lead to thrown ob ect in uries. Do not resume mowing
until area is cleared.
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.
If cutting deck strikes a solid ob ect or vibrates
abnormally, stop immediately, turn engine off, set
parking brake and wait for all motion to stop. Inspect for
damage. If damaged, repair or replace any
components before operating.
Before getting off the seat:
A. Move traction pedal to neutral position and
remove foot from pedal.
B. Set the parking brake and turn the PTO switch
OFF.
C. Shut the engine OFF and remove key from
ignition switch. Wait for all machine movement to
stop before getting off the seat.
Before servicing or making ad ustments, stop
engine and remove key from the switch.
Make sure machine is in safe operating condition
by keeping all nuts, bolts and screws tight.
Make sure all hydraulic line connectors are tight,
and all hydraulic hoses and lines are in good condition
before applying pressure to the system.
Keep body and hands away from pin hole leaks or
nozzles that e ect high pressure hydraulic fluid. Use
cardboard or paper to find hydraulic leaks. Hydraulic
fluid escaping under pressure can penetrate skin and
cause in ury. Fluid accidentally in ected into the skin
must be surgically removed within a few hours by a
doctor familiar with this form of in ury or gangrene may
result.
Before disconnecting or performing any work on
the hydraulic system, all pressure in system must be
relieved by stopping engine and lowering implement
to the ground.
If ma or repairs are ever needed or assistance is
desired, contact an Authorized Toro Distributor.
To reduce potential fire hazard, keep engine area
free of excessive grease, grass, leaves and dirt.
If engine must be running to perform maintenance
or an ad ustment, keep hands, feet, clothing and other
parts of the body away from cutting deck and other
moving parts. Keep all bystanders away.
Do not overspeed the engine by changing
governor setting. To assure safety and accuracy, have
an Authorized Toro Distributor check maximum engine
speed.
Periodically inspect the roll bar and roll bar
mounting. Replace, if necessary. Do not modify roll
over protection frames or structures because they are
specifically designed, sized, located, and tested for
in ury reduction. If a rollover occurs, a modified ROPS
will not provide adequate protection.
Shut engine off before checking or adding oil to the
crankcase.
At the time of manufacture, the machine
conformed to the safety standards for riding mowers
when weights are installed according to chart on page
11. To assure optimum performance and continued
safety certification of the machine, use genuine Toro
replacement parts and accessories. Replacement
parts and accessories made by other manufacturers
may result in nonĆconformance with the safety
standards, and the warranty may be voided.

The engine runs on No. 2-D or 1-D automotive type
diesel fuel with a minimum cetane rating of 40.
+/" Higher cetane rated fuel may e required if
machine is to e used at high altitudes and
lowĆatmospheric temperatures.
Use No. 2ĆD diesel fuel at temperatures a ove 20F
(Ć7 C). and No. 1ĆD diesel fuel elow 20F(Ć7 C). Use
of No. 1ĆD diesel fuel at lower temperatures provides
lower flash point and pour point characteristics,
therefore easing starta ility and lessening chances of
chemical separation of the fuel due to low
temperatures (wax appearance, which may plug
filters).
Use of No. 2ĆD diesel fuel a ove 20 F (Ć7 C) will
contri ute toward longer life of the pump components.
Do not use furnace oil. Furnace oils usually contain
heavy cracked distillates which are not suita le for
diesel engines.
Store fuel outside of uildings in a convenient location.
Tipping the front of the tank up slightly will allow
contaminants to collect at the lower end away from the
outlet. Never empty the tank elow 4 in. (10 cm) from
the ottom of the tank to avoid picking up water and
other contaminants that may have collected at the
ottom. Either filter the remainder at the ottom
through a chamois or dispose of it periodically to
prevent excessive uildĆup of contaminants.
Keep all fuel containers free of dirt, water, scale and
other contaminants. Many engine difficulties can e
traced to contaminants in the fuel.
Use only metal containers for fuel storage. DO NOT
store the fuel in a galvanized metal container. A
chemical reaction will result, which will plug the filters
and cause possi le fuel system damage.
If possi le, fill the fuel tank at the end of each day. This
will prevent possi le uildup of condensation inside
the fuel tank, preventing possi le engine damage.
Allow the engine to thoroughly cool down efore
refueling.
Using a clean rag, clean area around fuel tank cap.
Remove cap from the fuel tank (Fig. 16) and fill the
8 gallon (34 l) tank to within 1 inch (25 mm) from the top

Practice driving the GROUNDSMASTER 223-D
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 prolonged exposure to reduce the
potential of permanent hearing damage.
Another characteristic to consider is the operation of
the rakes. The rakes can e used to assist in turning
the machine; however, use them carefully, especially
on soft or wet grass ecause the turf may e torn
accidentally. The rakes can e used to great
advantage to control the direction of the cutting unit
when trimming along fences or similar o jects. The
other enefit of the rakes is to maintain traction. For
example; in some slope conditions, the uphill wheel
slips and loses traction. If this situation occurs, depress
uphill rake pedal gradually and intermittently until the
uphill wheel stops slipping; thus, increasing traction on
the downhill wheel. If independent raking is not
desired, engage the lever on left rake pedal with right
pedal. This provides simultaneous raking at oth
wheels.
Before stopping the engine, disengage all control and
move throttle to SLOW. Moving throttle to SLOW
reduces high engine speed, noise and vi ration. Turn
ignition key to OFF to stop the engine.
