Operation; Installing And Removing The Attachment; Digging A Trench - Toro TXL 2000 Operator's Manual

Operation

Installing and Removing
the Attachment
Refer to the Operator's Manual for the traction unit for
the installation and removal procedure.
Important:
Before installing the attachment,
position the machine on a level surface, ensure
that the mount plates are free of any dirt or debris,
and ensure that the pins rotate freely. If the pins
do not rotate freely, grease them.
Note:
Always use the traction unit to lift and move
the attachment.
WARNING
If you do not fully seat the quick-attach
pins through the attachment mount plate,
the attachment could fall off the machine,
crushing you or bystanders.
Ensure that the quick-attach pins are fully
seated in the attachment mount plate.
WARNING
Hydraulic fluid escaping under pressure can
penetrate skin and cause injury. Fluid injected
into the skin must be surgically removed
within a few hours by a doctor familiar with
this form of injury; otherwise, gangrene may
result.
• 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
pinhole leaks or nozzles that eject
high-pressure hydraulic fluid.
• Use cardboard or paper to find hydraulic
leaks; never use your hands.
CAUTION
Hydraulic couplers, hydraulic lines/valves,
and hydraulic fluid may be hot. If you contact
hot components, you may be burned.
• Wear gloves when operating the hydraulic
couplers.
• Allow the machine to cool before touching
hydraulic components.
• Do not touch hydraulic fluid spills.

Digging a Trench

1. Start the engine, set the throttle to H
move the machine over the area to be trenched.
2. Raise the loader arms to the horizontal position,
and tilt the trencher so that the boom is at a 15°
angle.
3. Engage the auxiliary hydraulics and slowly lower
the trencher until the chain touches the ground.
4. Begin inserting the nose of the boom and chain
into the ground by slowly raising the trencher a
few centimeters (inches) off the ground while
tilting the nose down into the ground gradually.
Note:
You may need to move the traction unit
rearward as you rotate the trencher to help the
crumber engage the ground.
5. Once the trencher boom is in the ground at a
65° angle, slowly lower the trencher until the
spoils auger is just above the ground.
6. Ensure that all parts of the trencher are
functioning correctly.
7. Slowly move the traction unit rearward to extend
the trench.
Note:
If you move too fast, the trencher will stall.
If it stalls, raise it slightly, slowly drive forward, or
reverse the chain direction momentarily.
8. When finished, raise the trencher and boom out
of the trench by tilting the attachment rearward.
Then, clear soil from the chain by changing the
direction of the chain several times.
