Torque Specifications
Recommended fastener torque values are listed in the
following tables. For critical applications, as determined
by Toro, either the recommended torque or a torque that
is unique to the application is clearly identified and spe
cified in this Service Manual.
These Torque Specifications for the installation and
tightening of fasteners shall apply to all fasteners which
do not have a specific requirement identified in this Ser
vice Manual. The following factors shall be considered
when applying torque: cleanliness of the fastener, use
of a thread sealant (e.g. Loctite), degree of lubrication
on the fastener, presence of a prevailing torque feature
(e.g. Nylock nut), hardness of the surface underneath
the fastener’s head or similar condition which affects the
installation.
-
-
Fastener Identification
As noted in the following tables, torque values should be
reduced by 25% for lubricated fasteners to achieve
the similar stress as a dry fastener. Torque values may
also have to be reduced when the fastener is threaded
into aluminum or brass. The specific torque value
should be determined based on the aluminum or brass
material strength, fastener size, length of thread en
gagement, etc.
The standard method of verifying torque shall be performed by marking a line on the fastener (head or nut)
and mating part, then back off fastener 1/4 of a turn.
Measure the torque required to tighten the fastener until
the lines match up.

This Chapter gives information about specifications,
maintenance, troubleshooting, testing and repair of the
Kawasaki FJ180V gasoline engine used in the Line
Painter 1200.
Most repairs and adjustments require tools which are
commonly available in many service shops. Special
tools are described in the Kawasaki FJ180V Service
Manual that is included at the end of this Chapter. The
use of some specialized test equipment is explained.
However, the cost of the test equipment and the special
ized nature of some repairs may dictate that the work be
done at an engine repair facility.

Hourmeter (Optional)
The optional hourmeter available for the Line Painter
1200 uses an inductive pickup wire connected to the
spark plug wire to sense when the engine is running.
The hourmeter should increase 1/10 of an hour every six
(6) minutes of engine running time.
The hourmeter uses its own internal battery for operation. The hourmeter battery is not replaceable.
NOTE: The hourmeter display is programmed to flash
service reminders initially at 50 hours and then every
100 hours thereafter. The display will flash for three
hours before and three hours after these running times.

Paint Circuit
The Line Painter 1200 paint circuit uses a positive displacement diaphragm pump to move paint from the
paint tank to the spray nozzle. The spray pump is a self–
priming diaphragm pump that has a dry crankcase.
The engine drives the spray pump indirectly through pulleys and a V–belt. The spray pump belt is always tensioned by a backside idler pulley so the pump is being
rotated whenever the engine is running.
When the pump is rotated, the downward stroke of the
pump’s diaphragm creates suction to allow fluid (paint)
to be drawn from the paint tank to the pump via hoses,
a ball valve (in the paint position) and a 40 mesh screen
filter. Pump design prevents fluid from being pumped
back into the suction line.
Once to the pump, the fluid (paint) is pushed by the upward stroke of the pump’s diaphragm to the pressure
side of the spray system through hoses, control valves
and the spray nozzle. Pump design prevents fluid from
being drawn back into the pump. Maximum pressure in
the system is limited by an adjustable relief valve located
in the pump.
An adjustable pressure regulator is used by the operator
to set paint circuit pressure on the Line Painter 1200.
Flow in excess of the regulator setting is directed back
to the paint tank via a ball valve (in the paint position).
This return flow is used for paint tank agitation. An op
tional pressure gauge (if equipped) indicates system
pressure.
A mechanically actuated spool valve is used to turn the
spray nozzle on/off. Spool valve shift occurs when the
operator depresses or releases the paint control lever.

Flush Circuit
The Line Painter 1200 paint circuit uses a positive displacement diaphragm pump to move fluid (water) from
the flush (water) tank through the spray system. The
spray pump is a self–priming diaphragm pump that has
a dry crankcase.
When the pump is rotated, the downward stroke of the
pump’s diaphragm creates suction to allow fluid (water)
to be drawn from the flush tank to the pump via hoses,
a one–way check valve, a ball valve (in the flush posi
tion) and a 40 mesh screen filter.
Once to the pump, the fluid (water) is pushed by the upward stroke of the pump’s diaphragm to the pressure
side of the spray system through hoses, control valves
and the spray nozzle. Maximum pressure in the system
is limited by an adjustable relief valve located in the dia
phragm pump.
Flow in excess of the adjustable pressure regulator setting is directed back to the flush (water) suction line via
a ball valve (in the flush position).
Flow through the flush circuit is used to dilute and remove paint from the ball valves, screen filter, spray
pump, regulator, spool valve, spray nozzle and all
hoses.
A one–way check valve is positioned between the flush
(water) tank and the ball valve (see schematic). This
check valve prevents paint from entering the flush (wa
ter) tank when the paint/flush lever is moved from the
paint position to the flush position and while the machine
is operated in the flush mode.
NOTE: If the flush system is not cleaned after use, diluted paint may cause check valve and associated
hoses to become blocked. If the check valve is stuck
open, paint may enter the flush (water) tank when the
paint/flush lever is moved from the paint position to the
flush position. If the check valve is stuck closed, the flush
system may not operate.

General Information
Paint/Flush Lever
To prevent paint system pressure spikes, the paint/flush
lever should normally be in either the paint mode or the
flush mode. It is recommended to use the OFF position
only when the engine is not running.
2
If the paint filter is to be cleaned and paint is in the paint
tank, turn the paint/flush lever to OFF (engine not run
ning) to prevent paint leakage.
Quick Disconnect Fittings
The Line Painter 1200 uses several quick disconnect fittings that provide excellent sealing and allow easy disassembly. To remove a hose from a quick disconnect
fitting, push the release collar in toward the fitting and
then pull the hose from the fitting. To install a hose into
a quick disconnect fitting, fully push the hose into the col
lar. Pull lightly on the hose to make sure it is secured in
the fitting.
If the end of the tubing is scratched, deformed or not cut
squarely, the fitting seal will not be effective and leakage
will occur.

Thread Sealant for Paint System Fittings
Many fittings used in the Line Painter 1200 paint system
have a sealant patch applied to the fitting threads. If a
fitting is being replaced and a sealant patch is evident on
the threads of the new fitting, there is no need to apply
additional thread sealant before installation.
If a fitting has been removed, however, the sealant patch
may not allow a leak–free seal if the fitting is re–installed.
If a fitting is to be re–installed, apply Saf–T–Lok brand
Line Painter 1200 Page 5 – 9 (Rev. A)Paint System
TPS (PTFE Sealant) to the fitting threads before
installation. If an alternate sealant is used, make sure
that it is compatible with nylon and polypropylene materials.
Adjustments
Spray Pump Relief Valve Adjustment
The spray pump used on the Line Painter 1200 is
equipped with an adjustable relief valve (Fig. 3). Adjust
ment of the relief valve is made with a socket head screw
on the top of the pump. The end of the socket head
screw should be flush with the relief valve housing for
correct relief valve adjustment.

Check Valve Service
The one–way check valve that is positioned between
the flush (water) tank and the ball valve (see schematic)
prevents paint from entering the flush (water) tank when
the paint/flush lever is moved from the paint position to
the flush position and while the machine is operated in
the flush mode.
NOTE: If the flush system is not cleaned after use, diluted paint may cause check valve and associated
hoses to become blocked. If the check valve is stuck
open, paint may enter the flush (water) tank when the
paint/flush lever is moved from the paint position to the
flush position. If the check valve is stuck closed, the flush
system may not operate.
1. Remove flush tank (see Flush Tank Removal in this
section).
2. Remove check valve from tubes (see Quick Disconnect Fitting in the General Information section) (Fig. 16).
3. Inspect check valve:
A. The spring loaded plunger in the check valve
should unseat with very light pressure when pressed
on with a suitable probe. Take care when pressing on
the plunger not to damage the check valve or to allow
contaminates into the valve.
