Spray System Maintenance; Inspecting The Hoses - Toro 41593 Operator's Manual

WARNING
Hydraulic fluid escaping under pressure can
penetrate skin and cause injury.
• Ensure that all hydraulic fluid hoses and lines are
in good condition and all hydraulic connections
and fittings are tight before applying pressure to
the hydraulic system.
• Keep your body and hands away from pin
hole leaks or nozzles that eject high pressure
hydraulic fluid.
• Use cardboard or paper to find hydraulic leaks.
• Safely relieve all pressure in the hydraulic system
before performing any work on the hydraulic
system.
• Get immediate medical help if fluid is injected
into skin.
Spray System
Maintenance
WARNING
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) and all of the valves
have been cycled three times.
• Verify there is an adequate supply of clean water
and soap nearby, and immediately wash off any
chemicals that contact you.

Inspecting the Hoses

Service Interval: Every 200 hours—Inspect all hoses and
connections for damage and proper
attachment.
Every 400 hours/Yearly (whichever comes
first)—Inspect the O-rings in the valve assemblies and
replace them if necessary.
Examine each hose in the spray system for cracks, leaks or
other damage. At the same time, inspect the connections and
fittings for similar damage. Replace any hoses and fittings if
damaged.
