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.
Note: If you have questions or need additional information
regarding the spray control system, refer to the Operators
Manual supplied with the system.
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 on the ROPS, behind the
passenger seat
(Figure
27). 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 fill the tank, unscrew the cap on the top of the tank and
fill the tank with fresh water. Replace the cap.
To open the fresh water tank spigot, turn the lever on the
spigot.

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.
Important: After filling the tank for the first time, check
the tank straps for any play. Tighten as necessary.
1. Stop the sprayer on a level surface, 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.

3. Spigot
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.
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. Failure to do so may
result in chemical deposits on the bottom of the
tank, degraded agitation, clogging of filters and
improper agitation rates.
Toro recommends using the approved Eductor Kit
for this machine. Contact your Authorized Toro
Dealer for more information.
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.
Important: To prevent damage to the boom actuator
cylinder, make sure the actuators are fully retracted
before transport.
Important: Release the actuator switch once the
booms have reached the desired position. Running the
actuators against the stops may cause damage to the
cylinders and or other hydraulic components.
