Operating The Sprayer; Filling The Spray Tank; Operating The Booms - Toro Multi Pro WM 41240 Operator's Manual

Operating the Sprayer

To operate the Multi Pro WM 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 3 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.
Important: The tank markings are for reference only
and cannot be considered accurate for calibration.
CAUTION
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 WM 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 than normal wear rates. If a
chemical is available in a formulation that would provide
increased life to the sprayer, use this alternative formulation.
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 Spray Tank

Install the Chemical Pre-Mix Kit for optimal mixing and
exterior tank cleanliness.
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: After filling the tank for the first time, check
the tank straps for any play. Tighten them as necessary.
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 lid 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.
5. Start the engine, engage the PTO, and set the hand
throttle if equipped.
6. Turn the agitation switch on.
7. Add the proper amount of chemical concentrate to the
tank, as directed by the chemical manufacturer.
Important: If you are using a wettable powder,
mix the powder with a small amount of water to
form a slurry before adding it to the tank
8. Add the remaining water to the tank.
Note: For better agitation, decrease the application
rate setting.

Operating the Booms

The boom lift switches on the sprayer control panel allow
you to move the booms between the transport position and
the spray position without leaving the operator's seat. Change
boom positions while the machine is stationary.
Note: If the sprayer is mounted on a Workman
HD/HDX/HDX-D, the vehicle must be locked into bed
lift mode.
Changing the Boom Position
1. Stop the sprayer on level ground.
2. Use the boom lift switches to lower the booms.
Note: 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, until
they have moved completely into boom transport
cradle forming the "X" transport position and the
boom cylinders are fully retracted.
