Safety Instructions
The Groundsmaster 300 Series was tested and certified
by TORO for compliance with the B71.4 1984 specifica-
tions of the American National Standards Institute. Al-
though 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 person-
nel involved in the operation, transport, maintenance,
and storage of the machine.
Before Operating
1. Read and understand the Operator's Manual before
starting and operating the machine. Become familiar
with all controls and know how to stop quickly. A replace-
ment manual is available by sending complete Model
and Serial Numbers to:
The Toro Company

Minneapolis, Minnesota 55420
2. Never allow children to operate the machine. Do not
allow adults to operate the machine without proper
instruction. Only trained operators, skilled in slope op-
eration and who have read the Operator's Manual
should operate this machine.
3. Never operate machine when under the influence of
drugs or alcohol.
4. Remove all debris or other objects that might be
picked up and thrown by cutter blades or fast moving
components from other attached implements. Keep all
bystanders away from the operating area.
5. Keep all shields and safety devices in place. If a
shield, safety device, or decal is defective or damaged,
repair or replace it before operating the machine. Also,
tighten any loose nuts, bolts, and screws to make sure
machine is in safe operating condition.
