Safe Operating Practices
The sprayer is an off-highway vehicle only and
is not designed, equipped, or manufactured for
use on public streets, roads, or highways.
Supervisor’s Responsibilities
•
Make sure that operators are thoroughly trained and
familiar with the Operator’s Manual, Engine Manual,
and all labels on the sprayer.
•
Establish your own special procedures and work
rules for unusual operating conditions (e.g. slopes
too steep for sprayer operation).
Chemical Safety
Chemical substances used in the spray system
may be hazardous and toxic to you, bystanders,
animals, plants, soils or other property.
•
Carefully read and follow the chemical
warning labels and Material Safety Data
Sheets (MSDS) for all chemicals used
and protect yourself according to the
chemical manufacturer’s recommendations.
For example, use appropriate Personal
Protective Equipment (PPE) including
face and eye protection, gloves, or other
equipment to guard against personal contact
with the chemical.
•
Keep in mind that there may be more than
one chemical used and information on each
should be assessed.
•
Refuse to operate or work on the sprayer if
this information is not available!
•
Before working on a spray system
make sure the system has been triple
rinsed and neutralized according to
the recommendations of the chemical
manufacturer(s).
•
Verify there is an adequate supply of clean
water and soap nearby, and immediately
wash off any chemicals that contact you.
•
Obtain proper training before using or handling
chemicals.
•
Use the correct chemical for the job.
•
Follow the chemical manufacturer’s instructions for
the safe application of the chemical.
•
Handle chemicals in a well ventilated area.
•
Wear goggles and other protective equipment as
instructed by the chemical manufacturer. Ensure
that as little skin as possible is exposed while using
chemicals.
•
Have clean water available especially when filling the
spray tank.
•
Do not eat, drink, or smoke while working with
chemicals.
•
Always wash your hands and other exposed areas as
soon as possible after finishing the work.
4
Properly dispose of unused chemicals and
chemical containers as instructed by the chemical
manufacturer and your local codes.
•
Chemicals and fumes in the tanks are dangerous;
never enter the tank or place your head over or in
the opening.
Before Operating
•
Operate the machine only after reading and
understanding the contents of this manual.
•
Never allow children to operate the sprayer.
•
Never allow other adults to operate the sprayer
without first reading and understanding the Operator’s
Manual. Only trained and authorized persons should
operate this sprayer. Make sure that all operators
are physically and mentally capable of operating the
sprayer.
•
This sprayer is designed to carry only you, the
operator and one passenger in the seat provided
by the manufacturer. Never carry any passengers
on the sprayer.
•
Never operate the sprayer when under the influence
of drugs or alcohol. Even prescription drugs and
cold medicines can cause drowsiness.
•
Do not drive the sprayer when you are tired. Be sure
to take occasional breaks. It is very important that
you stay alert at all times.
•
Become familiar with the controls and know how to
stop the engine quickly.
•
Keep all shields, safety devices, and decals in place.
If a shield, safety device, or decal is malfunctioning,
illegible, or damaged, repair or replace it before
operating the machine.
•
Always wear substantial shoes. Do not operate
the machine while wearing sandals, tennis shoes,
or sneakers. Do not wear loose fitting clothing or
jewelry which could get caught in moving parts and
cause personal injury.
•
Wearing safety glasses, safety shoes, long pants, and a
helmet is advisable and required by some local safety
and insurance regulations.
•
Avoid driving when it is dark, especially in unfamiliar
areas. If you must drive when it is dark, be sure
to drive cautiously, use the headlights, and even
consider adding additional lights.
•
Be extremely careful when operating around people.
Always be aware of where bystanders might be and
keep them away from the work area.
•
Before operating the sprayer, always check the
designated areas of the sprayer that are stated in
the Pre-Starting Checks in the Operation section.
If the machine does not function correctly or is
damaged in any way, do not use the sprayer. Make
sure that the problem is corrected before the sprayer
or attachment is operated.
•
Ensure that all fluid line connectors are tight and all
hoses are in good condition before applying pressure
to the system.
•
Since gasoline is highly flammable, handle it carefully.
–
Use an approved gasoline container.
–
Do not remove the cap from the fuel tank when
the engine is hot or running.
–
Do not smoke while handling gasoline.
–
Fill the fuel tank outdoors, and fill it to about
1 inch (25 mm) below the top of the tank (the
bottom of the filler neck). Do not overfill it.
–
Wipe up any spilled gasoline.
While Operating
Engine exhaust contains carbon monoxide,
which is an odorless, deadly poison that can
kill you.
Do not run engine indoors or in an enclosed
area.
•
The operator should remain seated whenever the
sprayer is in motion. The operator should keep both
hands on the steering wheel whenever possible.
Keep your arms and legs within the sprayer body
at all times.
•
Always watch out for and avoid low overhangs such
as tree limbs, door jambs, and overhead walkways.
Make sure there is enough room over head to easily
clear the sprayer and your head.
•
Failure to operate the sprayer safely may result in an
accident, tip over of the sprayer, and serious injury
or death. Drive carefully. To prevent tipping or loss
of control:
–
Use extreme caution, reduce speed, and maintain
a safe distance around sand traps, ditches, creeks,
ramps, unfamiliar areas, or any areas that have
abrupt changes in ground conditions or elevation.
–
Watch for holes or other hidden hazards.
–
Use extra caution when operating the sprayer on
wet surfaces, in adverse weather conditions, at
higher speeds, or with a full load. Stopping time
and distance will increase with a full load.
5
Avoid sudden stops and starts. Do not go from
reverse to forward or forward to reverse without
first coming to a complete stop.
–
Slow down before turning. Do not attempt
sharp turns or abrupt maneuvers or other unsafe
driving actions that may cause a loss of sprayer
control.
–
Before backing up, look to the rear and ensure
that no one is behind you. Back up slowly.
–
Watch out for traffic when you are near or
crossing roads. Always yield the right of way
to pedestrians and other vehicles. This sprayer
is not designed for use on streets or highways.
Always signal your turns or stop early enough
so that other people know what you plan to do.
Obey all traffic rules and regulations.
–
The electrical and exhaust systems of the sprayer
can produce sparks capable of igniting explosive
materials. Never operate the sprayer in or near
an area where there is dust or fumes in the air
which are explosive.
–
If you are ever unsure about safe operation, stop
work and ask your supervisor.
•
Do not touch the engine or muffler while the engine
is running or soon after it has stopped. These areas
may be hot enough to cause burns.
•
If the machine ever vibrates abnormally, stop
immediately, wait for all motion to stop, and inspect
the sprayer for damage. Repair all damage before
resuming operation.
•
Before getting off of the seat:
1. Stop the movement of the machine.
2. Place the range selector in Neutral and set the
parking brake.
3. Turn the ignition key to Off.
4. Remove the ignition key.
Important: Do not park the machine on an
incline.
Braking
•
Slow down before you approach an obstacle. This
gives you extra time to stop or turn away. Hitting an
obstacle can damage the sprayer and its contents.
More important, it can injure you.
•
Gross Vehicle Weight (GVW) has a major impact on
your ability to stop and/or turn. Heavy loads and
attachments make a sprayer harder to stop or turn.
The heavier the load, the longer it takes to stop.
•
Turf and pavement are much more slippery when
they are wet. It can take 2 to 4 times as long to stop
on wet surfaces as on dry surfaces. If you drive
through standing water deep enough to get the
brakes wet, they will not work well until they are
dry. After driving through water, you should test the
brakes to make sure they work properly. If they do
not, drive slowly while putting light pressure on the
brake pedal. This will dry the brakes out.
Operating on Hills and Rough Terrain
Operating the sprayer on a hill may cause tipping or
rolling of the sprayer, or the engine may stall and you
could lose headway on the hill. This could result in
personal injury.
•
Do not accelerate quickly or slam on the brakes
when backing down a hill, especially with a load.
•
Never drive across a steep hill; always drive straight
up or down or go around the hill.
•
If the engine stalls or you begin to lose headway
while climbing a hill, gradually apply the brakes and
slowly back straight down the hill.
•
Turning while traveling up or down hills can be
dangerous. If you have to turn while on a hill, do
it slowly and cautiously. Never make sharp or fast
turns.
•
Heavy loads affect stability. Reduce the weight of the
load and your speed when operating on hills.
•
Avoid stopping on hills, especially with a load.
Stopping while going down a hill will take longer
than stopping on level ground. If the sprayer must
be stopped, avoid sudden speed changes, which may
initiate tipping or rolling of the sprayer. Do not slam
on the brakes when rolling backward, as this may
cause the sprayer to overturn.
•
The Toro Company strongly recommends installing
the optional ROPS Kit when operating on hilly
terrain. If you install a ROPS, always wear the seat
belt when driving the sprayer.
•
Reduce speed and load when operating on rough
terrain, uneven ground, and near curbs, holes, and
other sudden changes in terrain. Loads may shift,
causing the sprayer to become unstable.
Sudden changes in terrain may cause abrupt
steering wheel movement, possibly resulting in
hand and arm injuries.
6
Reduce your speed when operating on rough terrain
and near curbs.
•
Grip the steering wheel loosely around the perimeter.
Keep your hands clear of the steering wheel spokes.
Loading
The weight of the cargo can change the sprayer center
of gravity and sprayer handling. To avoid loss of control
and personal injury, follow these guidelines:
•
Reduce the weight of the load when operating
on hills and rough terrain to avoid tipping or
overturning of the sprayer.
•
Liquid loads can shift. This shifting happens most
often while turning, going up or down hills, suddenly
changing speeds, or while driving over rough
surfaces. Shifting loads can cause the sprayer to tip
over.
•
When operating with a heavy load, reduce your
speed and allow for sufficient braking distance. Do
not suddenly apply the brakes. Use extra caution on
slopes.
•
Be aware that heavy loads increase your stopping
distance and reduce your ability to turn quickly
without tipping over.
Maintenance
•
Only permit qualified and authorized personnel to
maintain, repair, adjust, or inspect the sprayer.
•
Before performing any maintenance, ensure that the
system has been thoroughly rinsed and cleaned.
•
Before servicing or making adjustments to the
machine, stop the engine, set the parking brake,
and remove the key from the ignition to prevent
someone from accidentally starting the engine.
•
To make sure that the entire machine is in good
condition, keep all nuts, bolts, and screws properly
tightened.
•
To reduce the potential for fire, keep the engine
area free of excessive grease, grass, leaves, and
accumulation of dirt.
•
Never use an open flame to check the level or
leakage of fuel or battery electrolyte.
•
If the engine must be running to perform a
maintenance adjustment, keep your hands, feet,
clothing, and any parts of your body away from the
engine and any moving parts. Keep everyone away.
•
Do not use open pans of fuel or flammable cleaning
fluids when cleaning parts.
•
Do not adjust the traction control speed. To
ensure safety and accuracy, have an Authorized Toro
Distributor check the ground speed.
•
Keep your body and hands away from pin hole
leaks or nozzles that eject high pressure fluid. Use
cardboard or paper to find leaks. Fluid escaping
under pressure can penetrate skin and cause injury
requiring surgery within a few hours by a qualified
surgeon or gangrene may result.
•
If major repairs are ever needed or assistance is
required, contact an Authorized Toro Distributor.
•
To be sure of optimum performance and safety,
always purchase genuine Toro replacement parts and
accessories. Replacement parts and accessories made
by other manufacturers could be dangerous. Altering
this sprayer in any manner that may affect sprayer
operation, performance, durability, or its use, may
result in injury or death. Such use could void the
product warranty.

Checking the Boom Hinge
Springs
No Parts Required
Procedure
Important: Operating the spray system with
the boom hinge springs under the incorrect
compression could damage the boom assembly.
Measure the springs and use the jam nut to
compress the springs to 1.56 inches if necessary.
The spray is shipped with the boom extensions swung
forward to facilitate packaging of the machine. The
springs are not fully tightened at the time of manufacture
to allow the booms to be in this position for transit.
Before operating the machine, the springs must be
adjusted to the correct compression.
1. If necessary, remove the packing components that
secure the right and left extension booms during
shipping.
2. Support the booms while they are extended to the
spray position.
3. At the boom hinge, measure the compression of the
upper and lower springs while the booms are in their
extended position (Figure 3).
A. All springs must be compressed until the measure
1.56 inches.
B. Use the jam nut to compress any spring that
measure greater than 1.56 inches.

Operation
Note: Determine the left and right sides of the
machine from the normal operating position.
Think Safety First
Please carefully read all of the safety instructions and
decals in the safety section. Knowing this information
could help you or bystanders avoid injury.
Before Driving the Sprayer for
the First Time
Check the Engine Oil
Note: The best time to check the engine oil is when
the engine is cool, before it has been started for the
day. If it has already been run, allow the oil to drain
back down to the sump for at least 10 minutes before
checking. If the oil level is at or below the ’add’ mark
on the dipstick, add oil to bring the oil level to the ’full’
mark. Do not overfill. If the oil level is between the
’full’ and ’add’ marks, no oil addition is required.
The engine is shipped with oil in the crankcase;
however, the level of oil must be checked before you
first start the engine and after you have run it.
1. Position the machine on a level surface.
2. Remove the dipstick, located under the passenger
seat, and wipe it with a clean rag (Figure 16). Insert
the dipstick into the tube and make sure it is seated
fully. Remove the dipstick and check the oil level.
Figure 16
1.
Dipstick
3. If the oil level is low, remove the filler cap from
the valve cover (Figure 17) and pour oil into the
opening until the oil level is up to the Full mark on
19
the dipstick; refer to Servicing Engine Oil, in the
Engine Maintenance section, for the proper oil type
and viscosity. Add the oil slowly and check the level
often during this process. Do not overfill.
Figure 17
1.
Oil filler cap
4. Install the filler cap.
5. Install the dipstick firmly in place.
Check the Tire Pressure
Check the tire pressure every 8 hours or daily to ensure
proper levels. Fill the tires to 18 psi (124 kPa). Also,
check the tires for wear or damage.
Add Fuel
In certain conditions, fuel is extremely
flammable and highly explosive. A fire or
explosion from fuel can burn you and others
and can damage property.
•
Fill the fuel tank outdoors, in an open area,
when the engine is cold. Wipe up any fuel
that spills.
•
Do not fill the fuel tank completely full. Add
fuel to the fuel tank until the level is 1 inch
(25 mm) below the bottom of the filler neck.
This empty space in the tank allows fuel to
expand.
•
Never smoke when handling fuel, and stay
away from an open flame or where fuel
fumes may be ignited by a spark.
•
Store fuel in an approved container and keep
it out of the reach of children. Never buy
more than a 30-day supply of fuel.
20
In certain conditions during fueling, static
electricity can be released causing a spark
which can ignite the fuel vapors. A fire or
explosion from fuel can burn you and others
and can damage property.
•
Always place fuel containers on the ground
away from your vehicle before filling.
•
Do not fill fuel containers inside a vehicle
or on a truck or trailer bed because interior
carpets or plastic truck bed liners may
insulate the container and slow the loss of
any static charge.
•
When practical, remove gas-powered
equipment from the truck or trailer and
refuel the equipment with its wheels on the
ground.
•
If this is not possible, then refuel such
equipment on a truck or trailer from a
portable container, rather than from a fuel
dispenser nozzle.
•
If a fuel dispenser nozzle must be used, keep
the nozzle in contact with the rim of the fuel
tank or container opening at all times until
fueling is complete.
Recommended fuel
The engine runs on No. 2-D or 1-D automotive type
diesel fuel with a minimum cetane rating of 40.
Note: Your engine may require a higher cetane-rated
fuel if you operate the machine at high altitudes or in
low atmospheric temperatures.
Biodiesel Ready
This machine can also use a biodiesel blended fuel
of up to B20 (20% biodiesel, 80% petrodiesel). The
petrodiesel portion should be low or ultra low sulfur.
Observe the following precautions:
•
The biodiesel portion of the fuel must meet
specification ASTM D6751 or EN14214.
•
The blended fuel composition should meet ASTM
D975 or EN590.
•
Painted surfaces may be damaged by biodiesel
blends.
•
Use B5 (biodiesel content of 5%) or lesser blends
in cold weather.
•
Monitor seals, hoses, gaskets in contact with fuel as
they may be degraded over time.
•
Fuel filter plugging may be expected for a time after
converting to biodiesel blendsd.
•
Contact your distributor if you wish for more
information on biodiesel.
Filling the Fuel Tank
The fuel tank capacity is approximately 10.6 US gallons
(40 l).
Note: The fuel tank cap contains a gauge which shows
the fuel level; check it frequently.
1. Position the sprayer on a level surface.
2. Set the parking brake, stop the pump, stop the
engine, remove the ignition key, and allow the
engine to cool.
3. Clean the area around the fuel tank cap (Figure 18).
Figure 18
1.
Fuel tank cap
4. Remove the fuel tank cap.
21
Under certain conditions, diesel fuel and fuel
vapors are highly flammable and explosive. A
fire or explosion from fuel can burn you and
others and can cause property damage.
•
Use a funnel and fill the fuel tank outdoors,
in an open area, when the engine is off and
is cold. Wipe up any fuel that spills.
•
Do not fill the fuel tank completely full. Add
fuel to the fuel tank until the level is 1 inch
(25 mm) below the bottom of the filler neck.
This empty space in the tank allows the fuel
to expand.
•
Never smoke when handling fuel, and stay
away from an open flame or where fuel
fumes may be ignited by a spark.
•
Store fuel in a clean, safety-approved
container and keep the cap in place.
5. Fill the tank to about one inch below the top of the
tank, (bottom of the filler neck).
Note: This space in the tank allows fuel to expand.
Do not overfill.
6. Install the fuel tank cap securely.
7. Wipe up any fuel that may have spilled.
Adjusting the Booms to Level
1. At the operator’s position, turn the ignition key to
On to energize the system.
2. Move the booms into position so that they are level
with the ground.
3. Remove the key and exit the operator’s position.
4. At the hinge, adjust the position of the bumpers so
the boom can not move past level with the ground.
Take care to make sure the bumper is level.
5. Tighten the bolt and nut to lock the bumpers into
the adjusted position. Torque the fasteners to
135-165 ft-lbs (183-223 N-m).
Note: The bumper may experience some compression
over time. If the booms drop below level, use this
procedure to readjust the bumper position needed.
Pre-Starting Checks
Check the following items each time you begin using
the sprayer for the day:
•
Check the tire pressure.
Note: These tires are different than car tires; they
require less pressure to minimize turf compaction
and damage.
•
Check all fluid levels and add the appropriate
amount of specified fluids, if any are found to be
low.
•
Check the brake pedal operation.
•
Check to see that the lights are working.
•
With the engine off, check for oil leaks, loose parts,
and any other noticeable malfunctions.
If any of the above items are not correct, notify your
mechanic or check with your supervisor before taking
the sprayer out for the day. Your supervisor may want
you to check other items on a daily basis, so ask what
your responsibilities are.

New Sprayer Break-In
To provide proper performance and long sprayer life,
follow these guidelines for the first 100 operating hours:
•
Check the fluid and engine oil levels regularly
and be alert for indications of overheating in any
component of the sprayer.
•
After starting a cold engine, let it warm up for about
15 seconds before accelerating.
•
Avoid hard braking situations for the first several
hours of new sprayer break-in operation. New
brake linings may not be at optimum performance
until several hours of use has caused the brakes to
become burnished (broken-in).
•
Avoid racing the engine.
•
Vary the sprayer speed during operation. Avoid fast
starts and quick stops.
•
Refer to the Maintenance section for any special
low hour checks.
Adjusting the Booms to Level
The following procedure can be used to adjust the
hardstops on the center boom to keep the left and right
booms at level.
1. At the operator’s position, turn the ignition key to
On to energize the system.
2. Move the booms into position so that they are level
with the ground.

135-165 ft-lbs (183-223 N-m).
Note: The bumper may experience some compression
over time. If the booms drop below level, use this
procedure to readjust the bumper position needed.
Operating the Sprayer
To operate the Multi-Pro Sprayer first fill the spray tank,
then apply the solution to the work area, and finally
clean the tank. It is important that you complete all
three of these steps in succession to avoid damaging the
sprayer. For example, do not mix and add chemicals in
the spray tank at night and then spray in the morning.
This would lead to separation of the chemicals and
possible damage to the sprayer components.
23
Chemicals are hazardous and can cause
personal injury.
•
Read the directions on the chemical labels
before handling the chemicals and follow
all manufacturer recommendations and
precautions.
•
Keep chemicals away from your skin.
Should contact occur, wash the affected area
thoroughly with soap and clean water.
•
Wear goggles and any other protective
equipment recommended by the chemical
manufacturer.
The Multi-Pro Sprayer has been specifically designed to
have high durability in order to give it the long sprayer
life you need. Different materials have been chosen for
specific reasons at different locations on your sprayer to
meet this goal. Unfortunately there is no single material
which is perfect for all foreseeable applications.
Some chemicals are more aggressive than others
and each chemical interacts differently with various
materials. Some consistencies (e.g. wettable powders,
charcoal) are more abrasive and lead to higher wear
rates. If a chemical is available in a formulation that
would provide increased life to the sprayer, use this
alternative formulation.
As always, remember to clean your sprayer thoroughly
after all applications. This will do the most to ensure
your sprayer has a long and trouble free life.
Filling the Fresh Water Tank
Always fill the fresh water tank with clean water before
handling or mixing any chemicals.
The fresh water tank is located at the rear, left side
of the chemical tank (Figure 19). It supplies a source
of fresh water for you to wash chemicals off of your
skin, eyes, or other surfaces in the case of accidental
exposure.
To open the fresh water tank spigot, turn the lever on
the spigot.
Figure 19

Filler cap
Filling the Spray Tank
Important: Ensure that the chemicals you will
be using are compatible for use with Viton (see
the manufacturer’s label; it should indicate if it
is not compatible). Using a chemical that is not
compatible with Viton will degrade the O-rings in
the sprayer, causing leaks.
Important: The tank markings are for reference
only and cannot be considered accurate for
calibration.
1. Stop the sprayer on a level surface, move the range
selector to the Neutral position, stop the engine,
and set the parking brake.
2. Determine the amount of water needed to mix the
amount of chemical you need as prescribed by the
chemical manufacturer.
3. Open the tank cover on the spray tank.
The tank cover is located in the center of the top
of the tank. To open it, turn the front half of the
cover counterclockwise and swing it open. You
can remove the strainer inside for cleaning. To seal
the tank, close the cover and rotate the front half
clockwise.
4. Add 3/4 of the required water to the spray tank
using the anti-siphon fill receptacle.
Important: Always use fresh clean water in
the spray tank. Do not pour concentrate into
an empty tank.
24
5. Start the engine, set the pump switch to the On
position, and move the throttle lever to a higher idle.
6. Set the agitation switch to the On position.
Important: Prior to introducing wettable
powders into any Toro Spray System mix the
powders in a suitable container with sufficient
fresh water to create a free flowing slurry. Best
results may be obtained by using warm water.
Failure to do so may result in chemical deposits
on the bottom of the tank, degraded agitation,
clogging of filters and improper agitation rates.
7. Add the proper amount of chemical concentrate to
the tank, as directed by the chemical manufacturer.
8. Add the remaining water to the tank.
Operating the Booms
The boom lift switches on the sprayer control panel
allows you to move the booms between transport
position and spray position without leaving the
Operator’s seat. It is recommended to change boom
positions while the machine is stationary.
To change the boom position:
1. Stop the sprayer on level ground.
2. Use the boom lift switches to lower booms. Wait
until the booms reach the full, extended spray
position.
3. When the booms need to be retracted, stop the
sprayer on level ground.
4. Use the boom lift switches to raise the booms. Raise
the booms until they have moved completely into
boom transport cradle forming the “X” transport
position and the boom cylinders are fully retracted.
The Boom Transport Cradle
The sprayer is equipped with a boom transport cradle
that has a unique safety feature. In the event of
accidental boom contact with a low overhead object
while in the transport position, the boom(s) can be
pushed out of the transport cradles. If this occurs, the
booms will come to rest in a near horizontal position
to the rear of the vehicle. While the booms will not
be damaged due to this movement, they should be
immediately put back into the transport cradle.
Important: The booms can be damaged by
transporting them in any position other than the
“X” transport position using the boom transport
cradle.
To put the booms back into the transport cradle,
lower the boom(s) to the spray position, and then raise
the boom(s) back into the transport position. Make
sure the boom cylinders are fully retracted to prevent
actuator rod damage during storage.
Spraying
Important: In order to ensure that your solution
remains well mixed, use the agitation feature
whenever you have solution in the tank. For
agitation to work, the pump must be on and the
engine must be running above an idle.
Note: This procedure assumes that the pump is on
from the Filling the Spray Tank procedure.
1. Set the master boom switch to the Off position.
2. Adjust the throttle to the desired position to spray
at.
3. Drive to the location where you will be spraying.
4. Lower the booms into position.
5. Set the individual boom switches, as needed, to the
On positions.
6. Use the application rate switch to achieve the
desired pressure as indicated in the Nozzle Selection
Guide provided with the sprayer.
7. Drive at the desired speed and then set the master
boom switch to the On position to begin spraying.
Note: When the tank is nearly empty, the agitation
may cause foaming in the tank. In this case, turn
the agitation switch off. Alternatively, you can use
an anti-foaming agent in the tank.
8. When finished spraying, set the master boom switch
to the Off position to turn off all booms, then set
the pump switch to the Off position.
Note: Return the booms to the transport position
and drive the sprayer to the cleaning area.
Important: Always raise the booms until they
have moved completely into boom transport
cradle forming the “X” transport position and
the boom cylinders are fully retracted whenever
you move the sprayer from one spraying area to
another or move to a storage or cleaning area.
Turf Care Precautions While
Operating in Stationary Modes
Important: Under some conditions, heat from
the engine, radiator, and muffler can potentially
damage grass when operating the sprayer in a
stationary mode. Stationary modes include tank
25
agitation, hand spraying with a spray gun, or using
a walking boom.
Use the following precautions:
•
Avoid stationary spraying when conditions are very
hot and/or dry, as turf can be more stressed during
these periods.
•
Avoid parking on the turf while stationary spraying.
Park on a cart path whenever possible.
•
Minimize the amount of time the machine is left
running over any particular area of turf. Both time
and temperature affect how much the grass may be
damaged.
•
Set the engine speed as low as possible to
achieve the desired pressure and flow. This will
minimize the heat generated and the air velocity
from the cooling fan.
•
Allow heat to escape upward from the engine
compartment by raising the seat assemblies during
stationary operation rather than being forced out
under the vehicle.
Spraying Tips
•
Do not overlap areas that you have previously
sprayed.
•
Watch for plugged nozzles. Replace all worn or
damaged nozzles.
•
Use the master boom switch to stop the spray flow
before stopping the sprayer. Once stopped, use
the neutral engine speed control to hold the engine
speed up to keep the agitation running.
•
You will obtain better results if the sprayer is
moving when you turn the booms on.
Unclogging a Nozzle
If a nozzle becomes clogged while you are spraying,
you can clean it using a hand spray bottle of water or a
toothbrush.
1. Stop the sprayer on a level surface, stop the engine,
and set the parking brake.
2. Set the master boom switch to the Off position and
then set the pump switch to the Off position.
3. Remove the clogged nozzle and clean it using a
spray bottle of water or a toothbrush.
Selecting a Nozzle
The turret bodies can accept up to 3 different nozzles.
To select the desired nozzle:
1. Stop the sprayer on a level surface, stop the engine,
and set the parking brake.
2. Set the master boom switch to the Off position and
set the pump switch to the Off position.
3. Rotate the turret of the nozzles in either direction
to the correct nozzle.
Cleaning the Sprayer
Important: You must always empty and clean the
sprayer immediately after each use. Failure to do
so may cause the chemicals to dry or thicken in the
lines, clogging the pump and other components.
Clean the spray system after each spraying session. To
properly clean the spray system:
•
Use three separate rinses.
•
Use a minimum of 50 gallons for each rinse.
•
Use the cleaners and neutralizers as recommended
by the chemical manufacturers.
•
Use pure clean water (no cleaners or neutralizers)
for the last rinse.
1. Stop the sprayer, set the parking brake, and turn off
the engine.
2. Locate the tank drain valve on the rear of the
machine (Figure 20). The valve is to the rear of
pump, attached to the support bracket.
Figure 20
1.
Tank drain handle
Open the valve to drain any unused material
from the tank and dispose of it according to local
codes and the material manufacturer’s instructions
(Figure 21). After draining, remove the lynch pin on
the bracket securing the drain valve to the machine
and let the valve rest on the ground . This allows
any residual material in the line to drain.
26
3. When the tank has drained completely, install
the valve to frame with the lynch pin removed
previously and close the drain valve (Figure 21).
4. Fill the tank with at least 50 US gallons (190 L) of
clean fresh water and close the cover.
Note: You can use a cleaning/neutralizing agent in
the water as needed. On the final rinse, use only
clean, clear water.
5. Lower the booms into the spray position.
6. Start the engine and move the throttle lever to a

Owner Responsibilities
As the Product owner, you are responsible for required main-
tenance and adjustments stated in your Operator’s Manual.
Failure to perform required maintenance and adjustments can be
grounds for disallowing a warranty claim.
Items and Conditions Not Covered
Not all product failures or malfunctions that occur during the
warranty period are defects in materials or workmanship. This
warranty does not cover the following:
Product failures which result from the use of non-Toro
replacement parts, or from installation and use of add-on,
or modifi ed non-Toro branded accessories and products. A
separate warranty may be provided by the manufacturer of
these items.
Product failures which result from failure to perform recom-
mended maintenance and/or adjustments. Failure to properly
maintain your Toro product per the Recommended Mainte-
nance listed in the Operator’s Manual can result in claims for
warranty being denied.
Product failures which result from operating the Product in an
abusive, negligent or reckless manner.
Parts subject to consumption through use unless found to be
defective. Examples of parts which are consumed, or used
up, during normal Product operation include, but are not lim-
ited to, brakes pads and linings, clutch linings, blades, reels,
bed knives, tines, spark plugs, castor wheels, tires, fi lters,
belts, and certain sprayer components such as diaphragms,
nozzles, and check valves, etc.
Failures caused by outside infl uence. Items considered to be

age practices, contamination, use of unapproved coolants,

Normal noise, vibration, wear and tear, and deterioration.
Normal “wear and tear” includes, but is not limited to, dam-
age to seats due to wear or abrasion, worn painted surfaces,
scratched decals or windows, etc.
Parts
Parts scheduled for replacement as required maintenance are war-
ranted for the period of time up to the scheduled replacement time
for that part. Parts replaced under this warranty are covered for the
duration of the original product warranty and become the property
of Toro. Toro will make the fi nal decision whether to repair any ex-
isting part or assembly or replace it. Toro may use remanufactured
parts for warranty repairs.
Note Regarding Deep Cycle Battery Warranty:
Deep cycle batteries have a specifi ed total number of kilowatt-
hours they can deliver during their lifetime. Operating, recharging,
and maintenance techniques can extend or reduce total battery
life. As the batteries in this product are consumed, the amount
of useful work between charging intervals will slowly decrease
until the battery is completely worn out. Replacement of worn out
batteries, due to normal consumption, is the responsibility of the
product owner. Battery replacement may be required during the
normal product warranty period at owner’s expense.
Maintenance is at Owner’s Expense
Engine tune-up, lubrication cleaning and polishing, replacement of
fi lters, coolant, and completing Recommended Maintenance are
some of the normal services Toro products require that are at the
owner’s expense.
General Conditions
Repair by an Authorized Toro Distributor or Dealer is your sole
remedy under this warranty.
Neither The Toro Company nor Toro Warranty Company is
liable for indirect, incidental or consequential damages in
connection with the use of the Toro Products covered by this
warranty, including any cost or expense of providing sub-
stitute equipment or service during reasonable periods of
malfunction or non-use pending completion of repairs under
this warranty. Except for the Emissions warranty referenced
below, if applicable, there is no other express warranty. All
implied warranties of merchantability and fi tness for use are
limited to the duration of this express warranty.
Some states do not allow exclusions of incidental or consequential
damages, or limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts, so
the above exclusions and limitations may not apply to you. This
warranty gives you specifi c legal rights, and you may also have
other rights which vary from state to state.
Note regarding engine warranty:
The Emissions Control System on your Product may be covered
by a separate warranty meeting requirements established by the
U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and/or the California
Air Resources Board (CARB). The hour limitations set forth above
do not apply to the Emissions Control System Warranty. Refer to
the Engine Emission Control Warranty Statement printed in your
Operator’s Manual or contained in the engine manufacturer’s
documentation for details.
