Spraying; Spraying Tips; Cleaning The Sprayer - Toro Multi Pro WM 41240 Operator's Manual

Important: To prevent damage to the boom
actuator cylinder, make sure that the actuators are
fully retracted before transporting the machine.
Using 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 that the boom
cylinders are fully retracted to prevent actuator rod damage.

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
PTO must be engaged and the engine must be running
above an idle. If you stop the vehicle and need agitation
on, place the shift lever in the Neutral position, set the
parking brake, Engage the PTO, engage the clutch, and
set the hand throttle, if equipped.
Note: This procedure assumes that the PTO is engaged and
the boom valve calibration has been completed.
1. Lower the booms into position.
2. Set the master boom switch to the Off position.
3. Set the individual boom switches, as needed, to the On
positions.
4. Drive to the location where you will be spraying.
5. Navigate to the Application Rate screen on the
InfoCenter and set the desired rate. To do this:
A. Ensure that the pump is On.
B. Select the desired gear range and begin driving
to your target.
C. Verify that the monitor displays the correct
application rate. If needed, manipulate the
application rate switch until the monitor displays
the desired application rate.
D. Return to the location where spraying is to begin.
6. 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. To prevent this, turn
the agitation valve off. Alternatively, you can use an
anti-foaming agent in the tank.
7. When finished spraying, set the master boom switch to
the Off position to turn off all booms, then disengage
the PTO lever.

Spraying Tips

•
Do not overlap areas where 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 lock 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.
•
Watch for changes in the application rate that may
indicate that your speed has changed beyond the range of
the nozzles or there is a problem with the spray system.

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.
Note: Install the Tank Clean Rinse Kit for optimal tank
cleaning.
1. Stop the sprayer, set the parking brake, place the range
selector in the Neutral position, and turn off the engine.
2. Use the tank drain valve to drain any unused material
from the tank and dispose of it according to local codes
and the material manufacturer's instructions.
The tank drain is located on the left side of the machine
(Figure 36).
