Operating Tips About Your Audio System
Hearing damage from loud noise is almost undetectable
until it is too late. Your hearing can adapt to high volumes
of sound. Sound that seems normal can be loud and
harmful to your hearing. Take precautions by adjusting
the volume control on your receiver to a safe sound level
before your hearing adapts to it.
To help avoid hearing loss:
Adjust the volume control to the lowest setting.
•
Increase the volume slowly until you hear comfortably
•
and clearly.
Understanding Radio Reception
FM STEREO: FM stereo will give you the best sound,
but FM signals will reach only about 1665 km (1040
miles). Tall buildings or hills can interfere with FM signals,
causing the sound to come and go.
AM: The range for most AM stations is greater than for FM,
especially at night. The longer range, however, can cause
stations to interfere with each other. AM can pick up noise
from things like storms and power lines. Try reducing the
treble to reduce this noise if you experience it.
IMPORTANT: Before you add any sound equipment to
your machine like a CB radio, mobile telephone
or twoway radio, be sure you can add what
you want. If you can, it’s very important to do it
properly. Added sound equipment may interfere
with the operation of your vehicle’s engine,
sprayer control unit, radio or other systems,
and even damage them. See your John Deere
dealer for proper installation instructions.
Your vehicle’s systems may interfere with
the operation of sound equipment that has
been added improperly. Before adding sound
equipment, check with your dealer and be
sure to check Federal Regulations covering
mobile radio and telephone units.

Do not attempt to mount a tire unless you have the proper
equipment and experience to perform the job.
Always maintain the correct tire pressure. Do not inflate
the tires above the recommended pressure. Never weld
or heat a wheel and tire assembly. The heat can cause
an increase in air pressure resulting in a tire explosion.
Welding can structurally weaken or deform the wheel.
When inflating tires, use a clipon chuck and extension
hose long enough to allow you to stand to one side and
NOT in front of or over the tire assembly. Use a safety
cage if available.
Check wheels for low pressure, cuts, bubbles, damaged
rims or missing lug bolts and nuts.

Relieve Boom Pressure
IMPORTANT: Use of the Boom Pressure Relief
function is not recommended when using
nonJohn Deere aftermarket solution system
equipment. These include but are not limited
to, direct injection and section ON/OFF control
systems. Use of the Boom Pressure Relief
function with nonJohn Deere solution systems
may have undesired effects.
The Boom Pressure Relief function allows the pressure
trapped in the boom to be bled off after spraying is
complete. The pressure is bled off by allowing the boom
sections valves to be opened for approximately 3 seconds
after the solution pump and remote load are shut off. It is
recommended that the operator raise the boom center
frame to its highest position. The solution pressure
must be 4 psi or less and the engine is running for
function to operate. The operator must press the Master
Spray ON/OFF button to activate the function. After the
3second period, the boom section valves will close. The
main purpose of this function is to minimize the possibility
of the sprayer nozzle bodies leaking while in transit.
NOTE: See Enable Boom Pressure Relief in SprayStar
section to enable/disable this function.
1. Set Solution Pump ON/OFF switch to the OFF
position.
2. If not already in the OFF position, set remote load
switch to the OFF position.
3. If not already in the fully raised position, raise boom

Freeing A Mired Machine
IMPORTANT: To tow or pull the sprayer, engine MUST
be running and hydraulic system MUST have
correct hydraulic pressure or damage WILL
occur to brakes and wheel hubs.
If engine is not running or proper hydraulic
system pressure cannot be maintained,
(see your John Deere dealer or the Sprayer
Technical Manual for proper brake and wheel
hub disengagement procedure).
The machine should only be towed if stuck,
WITH the engine running, correct hydraulic
pressure and the secondary brake released.
Only pull the machine a short distance and at
very slow speed of 0 to 5 kph (0 to 3 mph).
CAUTION: Attempting to free a mired machine
can involve safety hazards such as the towing
tractor overturning, and the tow strap or tow
chain (a cable is not recommended) failing and
recoiling from its stretched condition.
Back machine out if it gets stuck down in mud.
Remove mud from behind rear wheels. Place
boards behind wheels to provide a solid base and
try to back out slowly. If necessary, dig mud from
the front of all wheels and drive slowly ahead.
If necessary to tow with another unit, use a
tow strap under the sprayer chassis and a tow
TS263 —UN—23AUG88
chain between the tow strap and towing unit
(a cable is not recommended). Inspect the
strap and chain for flaws. Make sure all parts
of towing devices are of adequate size and
strong enough to handle the load.
Always connect to the drawbar of the towing
unit. Before moving, clear the area of people.
Apply power smoothly to take up the slack:
a sudden pull could snap any towing device
causing it to whip or recoil dangerously.
IMPORTANT: Do not tow machine from Drings on
sprayer chassis frame. These rings are used to
tie machine down when transporting on trailer.

Display Theory of Operation
SprayStar System
IMPORTANT: It is important to follow proper use
guidelines with the GSD2600 touch screen.
Under no circumstance should you contact the
touch screen with an object harder or sharper
than a fingertip (pen, pencil point, or any metal
objects). Heavy pressure can also damage
underlying components and void the touch
screen warranty. Light amounts of pressure, if
exerted continuously, can degrade touch screen
reliability. The GSD2600 should be stored near
room temperature during the off season with no
items contacting the touchscreen surface.
The 2600GreenStar™ display is primarily used as an
operator interface for SprayStar applications. The
display’s primary navigational point is the touchscreen
which allows the operator to input information by touching
the screen. Its primary purpose is to display chassis or wet
system information. It has the capability to simultaneously
display information from multiple sensors.
GreenStar is a trademark of Deere & Company
SprayStar can be used in conjunction with other Ag
Management Solution products such as GreenStar
Guidance Parallel Tracking and AutoTrac Assisted
Steering Systems and Field Doc. Setup and operation
information for these programs can be found in their
respective operator manuals.
The 2600 display has an integrated performance monitor
that can be used to record area and other data based on
implement width and ground speed.
From time to time, John Deere AMS publishes software
updates to the GS2 system over the internet at
www.StellarSupport.com. Each display also comes with a
GS2 Live Update CD. Live Update can be installed on an
internet connected PC and alert the user when updates to
the display are available. It will then walk the user through
the downloading process. The download can be stored
on a data card, and inserted into the display to complete
the update.

Data Card
IMPORTANT: Do not remove 12 volt power from
display until the LED light is black. Prematurely
removing power (green or orange light status)
may cause loss of data and/or the display to
lose functionality. It may take up to 20 seconds
after removing key power for the LED light to
completely go black. The data card should not
be removed during this period also.
Data card must be in display during operation
or system functionality will deteriorate.
Do not remove data card while display is
reprogramming. Doing so can damage display
and put software in an irrecoverable state.
Any time machine configuration changes are
made, the power must be cycled on the display
to allow changes to take place.
SprayStar System
After configuring machine and implement setup,
make sure key power is turned off and LED
light is able to go to black before operating in
the field. This will allow all setup information
to be saved to the data card.

door latch tab, and continue to press forward until the
door springs open.
2. Wait for message stating that Data Card can be
ejected.
3. The side of the data card that has the ridge along the

facing the operator.
4. Press the data card into the slot until it clicks into place
and pushes the eject button all the way out. It has a

Processor.
5. Close the card slot door.
Steps for Data Card Removal
1. Open the card slot door.
2. Press the eject button located directly below the card
slot inside the card slot door. This is very similar to

Power Up
SprayStar System
IMPORTANT: Do not remove 12 volt power from
display until the LED light is black. Prematurely
removing power (green or orange light status)
may cause loss of data and/or the display to
lose functionality. It may take up to 20 seconds
after removing key power for the LED light to
completely go black. The data card should not
be removed during this period also.
IMPORTANT: When setting up the display with
vehicle key in the accessory position (power
on, engine off), turn key to OFF position for
20 seconds BEFORE starting the vehicle.
This will ensure the setup data is saved to
the data card prior to operating.
If the vehicle is running during setup and
programming, turn the vehicle off with key
in the OFF position and wait 30 seconds
before restarting. This ensures that all data
is saved to the data card.
DO NOT turn the key to the start position directly
from the accessory position. The reduction
in voltage during the starting phase could
result in a loss of all setup data.
IMPORTANT: If changes are made while machine is in
auxiliary mode, turn key off and wait for display’s
power light to turn off before starting the ignition.
This allows display to shut down and save data.
IMPORTANT: Data card must be in display during
operation or system functionality will deteriorate.
During power up of display, a startup screen will show a
status bar that indicates display is powering up. Once the
display has powered up, if no implement is connected, a
default performance monitor screen will be shown. If an
ISO implement is connected, that implement’s information
will be shown in application info area along with 10
softkeys.
