SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
The MULTI PRO
®
5500 Turf Sprayer was designed and tested to offer safe service when operated and maintained properly. Although hazard control and accident prevention partially are dependent upon the design and configuration of the vehicle, these factors are also dependent upon the awareness, concern, and proper training of the personnel involved in the operation, maintenance, and storage of the vehicle. Improper use or maintenance of the vehicle can result in injury or death.
This is a specialized Turf Sprayer designed for off road use. Its ride and handling will have a different feel than what drivers experience with passenger cars or trucks. So take time to become familiar with your MULTI PRO
®
5500. The attachments that adapt to the MULTI PRO 5500 are not covered in this manual. See the specific Operator's Manual provided with the attachment for additional safety instructions. READ THESE MANUALS.
TO REDUCE THE POTENTIAL FOR INJURY OR DEATH, COMPLY WITH THE FOLLOWING SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS:
SUPERVISOR'S RESPONSIBILITIES

14. The MULTI PRO
®
5500 is equipped with a Neutral Lock-Out Switch. The purpose of this switch is to insure that the vehicle will not start unless the Traction Pedal is in the NEUTRAL position. Should the vehicle start when the Traction Pedal is not in the NEUTRAL position, shut off the engine and refer to the Traction Drive Maintenance instructions on pages 43 and 44.
Page 5
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WHILE OPERATING
WARNING: Do not run engine in a confined area without adequate ventilation. Exhaust fumes are hazardous and could possibly be deadly.
15. Operator and passenger should remain
seated whenever the vehicle is in motion. Operator should keep both hands on steering wheel whenever possible, and passenger should use hand holds provided. Keep arms and legs within the vehicle body at all times. Remember your passenger may not be expecting you to brake or turn and may not be ready.
16. Sit on seat when starting and operating the vehicle.
17. When starting the engine:
A. Engage the Parking Brake.
B. Make sure Traction Pedal is in
NEUTRAL. Move the Throttle Lever to 1/4 to 1/3 throttle.
whenever possible. Reduce speed when making sharp turns or when turning on hillsides.
D. If engine stalls or loses power and cannot make it to the top of a slope, do not turn vehicle around. Always back slowly straight down the slope.
E. Use extra caution when operating vehicle on wet surfaces, at higher speeds or with a full load. Stopping time will increase with a full load.
F. Operate vehicle with extra caution when handling off-center loads that cannot be centered.
G. Avoid sudden starts and stops. Do not go from reverse to forward or forward to reverse without first coming to a complete stop.
H. Do not attempt sharp turns or abrupt maneuvers or other unsafe driving actions that may cause a loss of vehicle control.
C. After engine is started, release parking brake and keep foot off traction pedal. The vehicle must not move. If movement is evident, the neutral return mechanism is adjusted incorrectly. Shut engine off and refer to the Traction Drive Maintenance section on pages 43 and 44.
18. Operator and passenger must be skilled and trained in how to drive on hillsides. Failure to use caution on slopes or hills may cause loss of control and vehicle to tip or roll, possibly resulting in personal injury or death.
19. Using the vehicle demands attention. Failure to operate vehicle safely may result in an accident, tip over of vehicle and serious injury or death. Drive carefully. To prevent tipping or loss of control:
A. Use extreme caution, reduce speed and maintain a safe distance around sand traps, ditches, creeks, ramps, and any unfamiliar areas, or other hazards.
B. Watch for holes or other hidden hazards.
I. Before backing up, be sure no one is behind the vehicle. Back up slowly.
J. Watch out for traffic when near or crossing roads. Always yield the right of way to pedestrians and other vehicles. This vehicle is not designed for use on streets or highways. Always signal your turns and stop early enough to let other people know what you plan to do. Obey all traffic rules and regulations.
K. Never operate vehicle in or near an area where dust or fumes which are explosive, are in the air. The electrical and exhaust systems of the vehicle can produce sparks capable of igniting explosive materials.
L. Watch out for and avoid low overhangs such as tree limbs, door jambs, overhead walkways, etc. Make sure there is enough room overhead to easily clear the vehicle and your head.
M. If ever unsure about safe operation, STOP WORK and ask your supervisor.
C. Always reduce speed before starting up or down a hill. Do not start or stop suddenly when traveling uphill or downhill. Use caution when operating vehicle on a steep slope. Normally travel straight up and down slopes. Avoid turning on hillsides

24. Make sure the vehicle is in safe operating condition, keeping all nuts, bolts, and screws tight.
25. To reduce potential fire hazard, keep the engine area free of excessive grease, grass, leaves, and accumulation of dirt. Do not wash a warm engine or electrical components.
26. Make sure all hydraulic line connectors are tight, and all hydraulic hoses and lines are in good condition before applying pressure to the system.
27. Keep body and hands away from pin hole leaks in hydraulic lines that eject high pressure hydraulic fluid. Use cardboard or paper to find hydraulic leaks. Hydraulic fluid escaping under pressure can penetrate skin and cause injury. Fluid accidentally injected into the skin must be surgically removed within a few hours by a doctor familiar with this form of injury, or gangrene may result.
28. Before disconnecting or performing any work on the hydraulic system, all pressure in the system must be relieved by stopping the engine.
29. If major repairs are ever needed or assistance is required, contact an Authorized TORO Distributor.
30. Disconnect battery before servicing the vehicle. If battery voltage is required for troubleshooting, temporarily connect the battery.
31. If the engine must be running to perform maintenance, or an adjustment, keep hands, feet, clothing, and any parts of the body away from the engine and any moving parts. Keep everyone away.
32. Do not over-speed engine by changing Governor settings. Maximum engine speed is 3200 no-load rpm. To assure safety and accuracy, have an Authorized TORO Distributor check maximum engine speed with a tachometer.
33. Shut engine off before checking or adding oil to the crankcase.
34. To assure optimum performance and continued safety of the vehicle, always use genuine TORO replacement parts and accessories. Replacement parts and accessories made by other manufacturers could be dangerous. Altering this vehicle in any manner may affect the vehicle's operation, performance, durability, or its use may result in injury or death. Such use could also void the product warranty of the TORO Company.
35. This vehicle should not be modified without The Toro Company's authorization. Direct any inquiries to:

SET-UP INSTRUCTIONS
BATTERY SERVICE:
CAUTION
Electrolyte gases are explosive and can cause serious injury to eyes, lungs, and skin. Nausea may result if the gases are inhaled.
Wear safety goggles and rubber gloves when working with electrolyte or battery.
Charge the Battery in a well ventilated place so gases produced while charging can dissipate.
Unplug charger from electrical outlet before connecting to or disconnecting charger leads from battery posts.
Since the gases are explosive, keep open flames and electrical spark away from the battery; DO NOT SMOKE!
The Battery has been filled with electrolyte and charged at the factory. However, prior to actual operation, it may be necessary to bring the Battery to a full charge as follows:
1. First disconnect the black negative (-) cable, then disconnect the red positive (+) cable.
2. Connect a 3 to 4 amp battery charger to the Battery Posts. Charge the Battery at a rate of 3 to 4 amperes for 4 to 8 hours.
3. When Battery is charged, disconnect the charger from electrical outlet and battery posts.
IMPORTANT! If optional electric powered equipment is to be installed on the MULTI PRO 5500, DO NOT connect the battery cables until all wiring harness connections for the optional equipment have been completed. If accidentally grounded, the lead to the battery terminal will burn the accessory's wiring harness. After the accessory's wiring harness has been connected, proceed as follows:
4. Connect the red positive (+) cable to the positive (+) post on the battery first, then connect
the black negative (-) cable to the negative (-) post on the battery. Secure with cap screws and nuts. Slide the rubber boot over the positive terminal to prevent short-out from occurring.
WARNING
Connecting cables to the wrong post could cause the battery to explode, resulting in personal injury and damage to the electrical system.
Make sure Battery Cables do not interfere or rub on any moving or hot parts.

1. Fuel tank cap.
DANGER
Because gasoline is flammable, caution must be used when storing or handling it. Do not fill fuel tank while engine is running, hot, or when vehicle is in an enclosed area. Vapors may build up and be ignited by a spark or flame source many feet away. DO NOT SMOKE while filling the fuel tank to prevent the possibility of an explosion. Always fill fuel tank outside and wipe up any spilled gasoline before starting the engine. Use a funnel or spout to prevent spilling gasoline, and fill tank no higher than one inch below top of tank, (bottom of filler neck). DO NOT OVER FILL. Store gasoline in a clean safety approved container and keep the cap on the container. Keep gasoline in a cool, well ventilated place; never in an enclosed area such as a hot storage shed. To assure volatility, do not buy more than a 30 day supply of gasoline. Gasoline is a fuel for internal combustion engines; therefore do not use it for any other purpose. Since many children like the smell of gas, keep it out of their reach because the fumes are explosive and dangerous to inhale.
IMPORTANT! NEVER USE METHANOL, GASOLINE CONTAINING METHANOL, GASOLINE CONTAINING MORE THAN 10% ETHANOL, GASOLINE ADDITIVES, OR WHITE GAS. ENGINE FUEL SYSTEM DAMAGE COULD RESULT.
1. Clean area around fuel tank cap.
2. Remove fuel tank cap.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
PRE-STARTING CHECKS
Safe operation begins before taking the vehicle out for a day's work. You should check these items each time:
1. Check tire pressure. (See page 19)
NOTE: These tires are different than car tires, they require less pressure to minimize turf compaction and damage.
2. Check all fluid levels and add the appropriate
amount of TORO specified fluids if any are found to be low.
3. Check Brake Pedal operation.
4. Check to see that the lights are working.
5. Check for oil leaks, loose parts, or any other
noticeable malfunctions. Make sure engine is off and all moving parts have stopped before checking for oil leaks, loose parts, and any other malfunctions.
If any of the above items are not correct, notify your mechanic or check with your supervisor before taking the vehicle out for the day. Your supervisor may want you to check other items on a daily basis, so ask what your responsibilities are.
IMPORTANT! Do not hold Key in starting position longer than 10 seconds at one time. If the engine does not start, wait at least 60 seconds before attempting to start again. Continuous cranking will burn out the Starter motor. If the engine develops sufficient speed to disengage the Starter, but fails to continue running, the engine must come to a complete stop before attempting to restart the engine. If the Starter is engaged while the Flywheel is still rotating, the Starter Pinion and Flywheel ring gear may clash, resulting in damage to the Starter. If the Starter does not turn the engine over, shut off the engine immediately and do not attempt to start the engine until the condition has been corrected. Do not "jump­start" using another, larger battery.
NOTE: Starter motors are pre-lubricated. Brushes normally require servicing only after extended use.
6. Gradually push the choke in to the OFF
position after the engine is running.
7. Turn Steering Wheel to the left and right to check steering response.
8. Position the Throttle Lever at the desired engine RPM.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
OPERATING CHARACTERISTICS
The vehicle is designed with safety in mind. It has four wheels for added stability. It is important to remember, however, that this vehicle is not a passenger car. It is a Turf Sprayer and is not designed for use on roadways.
The vehicle has special tires, a hydraulic traction pedal, and other features that give it extra gradeability. These features add to the versatility of the vehicle but, they can also get you into dangerous situations. You must keep in mind that the vehicle is not a recreation vehicle. It is not an all terrain vehicle. And, it is definitely not meant for "stunt driving" or "horsing around". It is a Turf Sprayer, not a play vehicle. Children should not be allowed to operate the vehicle, or ride as a passenger on the vehicle. Anyone who operates the vehicle should have a motor vehicle license.
If you are not experienced at driving the vehicle, practice driving in a safe area away from other people. Be sure you are familiar with all the vehicle controls, particularly those used for braking, steering, and shifting. Learn how your vehicle handles on different surfaces. Your operating skills will improve with experience, but as with operating any vehicle, take it easy as you begin. Be sure you know how to stop quickly in an emergency. If you need help ask your supervisor for assistance.
Many factors contribute to accidents. You have control over several of the most important. Your actions, such as driving too fast, turning too sharply, and combinations of these, are frequent causes of accidents.
One of the major causes of accidents is fatigue. Be sure to take occasional breaks. It is very important that you stay alert at all times.
Avoid driving when it is dark, especially in unfamiliar areas. If you must drive when it's dark, be sure to drive cautiously, use the headlights.
PASSENGERS
The MULTI PRO® 5500 Turf Sprayer comes equipped with hip restraints and a passenger grab bar. Whenever you have a passenger riding on the vehicle, make sure he or she is holding on securely. Drive slower and turn less sharply because your passenger does not know what you are going to do next and may not be prepared for turning, stopping, accelerating, and bumps.
You should remain seated at all times, keeping arms and legs inside the vehicle. The operator should keep both hands on the steering wheel whenever possible.
There should never be passengers in the Cargo Bed or on any attachments. The vehicle is meant to carry a driver and one passenger only, and then only on the front seat.
SPEED
Speed is one of the most important variables leading to accidents. Driving too fast for the conditions can cause you to lose control and have an accident. Speed can also make a minor accident worse. Driving head-on into a tree at slow speed can cause injury and damage, but driving into a tree at high speed can destroy the vehicle and kill you and your passenger.
Never drive too fast for the conditions. If there is any doubt about how fast to drive, slow down.
TURNING
Never operate the vehicle, or any equipment, if you are under the influence of alcohol or other drugs. Even prescription drugs and cold medicines can cause drowsiness. Read the label on the medicine or check with your doctor or pharmacist if you are unsure about a certain medication.
One of the most important rules to follow is to go slower in unfamiliar areas. It is surprising how much damage and injury common things can cause. Tree branches, fences, wires, other vehicles, tree stumps, ditches, sand traps, streams, and other things found in most parks and golf courses can be hazardous to the operator and passenger.
24
Turning is another important variable leading to accidents. Turning too sharply for the conditions can cause the vehicle to lose traction and skid, or even tip over.
Wet, sandy, and slippery surfaces make turning more difficult and risky. The faster you are going, the worse this situation becomes so, slow down before turning.
During a sharp turn at higher speeds, the inside rear wheel may lift off the ground. This is not a flaw in the design, it happens with most four wheel vehicles including passenger cars. If this happens, you are turning too sharply for the speed at which you are traveling. Slow down!
Page 25
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
BRAKING
The MULTI PRO® 5500 Turf Sprayer has a hydrostatic braking system, which means that when the vehicle is not being propelled into motion it is stopped. The vehicle will not coast under normal operation.
It is good practice to slow down before approaching an obstacle. This gives you extra time to stop or turn away. Hitting an obstacle can damage the vehicle and its contents. More importantly, it can injure you.
Gross vehicle weight has a major impact on your ability to stop and/or turn. Heavier loads and heavier attachments make a vehicle harder to stop or turn. The heavier the load, the longer it takes to stop.
The braking characteristics also change with no bed or attachments on the vehicle. Fast stops may cause the rear wheels to lock up, which may affect the control of the vehicle. Its a good idea to decrease the vehicle speed with no bed or attachments.
Turf and pavement are much more slippery when wet. It can take 2 to 4 times as long to stop on wet surfaces as on dry surfaces.
NOTE: Heavy loads and turf conditions affect your vehicle's brake performance and ability to turn quickly without tipping over.
TIPOVERS
The best way to prevent accidents involving Turf Sprayer is through continuous supervision and training of operators and paying constant attention to the area in which the vehicle is being operated.
The best way for operators to prevent serious injury or death to themselves or others is to familiarize themselves with the proper operation of the Turf Sprayer, to stay alert and to avoid action or conditions which could result in an accident. In the event of a tip over, the risk of serious injury or even death will be reduced if the operator and all involved follow the instructions provided.
WARNING
1149
Tipping or rolling the vehicle could cause serious personal injury or death.
If engine stalls or you lose momentum on a hill, never attempt to turn vehicle around.
When backing down a hill always back straight down.
Never drive across a steep hill, always drive straight up or down.
Avoid turning on a hill.
HILLS
Use extra care when on hills. Never go on hills that are extremely steep. Stopping while going down a hill will take longer than on level ground. Turning while going up or down a hill is more dangerous than turning on the level. Turning while going down hill, especially with the brakes on, and turning up hill while traversing a hill, are particularly dangerous. Even at a slow speed and without a load, tipovers are more likely if you turn on a hill.
Do not accelerate while climbing or descending a hill. If you have to turn while on a hill, do it as slowly and cautiously as possible. Never make sharp or fast turns on a hill.
If you stall or begin to lose headway while climbing a hill, quickly apply the brakes, engage emergency brake, and restart the engine.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
TOWING VEHICLE
In an emergency the MULTI PRO® 5500 can be towed a short distance by actuating the dump valve in the variable displacement hydraulic pump, and towing the vehicle. However, TORO does not recommend this as a standard procedure.
IMPORTANT! Do not tow the vehicle faster than 2-3 mph (3-4.8 km/hr) because internal transmission damage may occur. The dump valve must be open whenever the vehicle is pushed or towed. If the vehicle must be moved a considerable distance, transport it on a truck or trailer.
Note: When the engine is not running, the power steering will not function, making it difficult (increased effort) to steer.
CAUTION
Towing at excessive speeds could cause vehicle to lose steering control.
Never tow vehicle faster than 3 MPH.
DUMP VALVE (Fig. 20)
1. The Dump Valve is located on the left side of
the variable displacement pump. Rotate the valve 90° in either direction to open. This will allow hydraulic fluid to by-pass internally. When fluid is by-passed, the vehicle can be moved - slowly ­without damaging the transmission.
2. Close dump valve before starting the engine. However do not exceed 5-8 ft-lb (7-11 N m) torque to close the valve.

COOLING SYSTEM MAINTENANCE
CAUTION
Coolant in a hot radiator is under extreme pressure. Scalding hot coolant or steam can blow out of the radiator, causing serious injury.
3. Open coolant drain cock at bottom of radiator
and allow coolant to flow into drain pan. When coolant stops, close drain cock. (Fig. 31)
4. Slowly fill radiator with a 50/50 mixture of water and recommended coolant. Install the radiator cap securely.
Never remove the radiator cap, under any conditions, when the engine is running.
Never remove the radiator cap when the engine or radiator are hot.
IMPORTANT! NEVER SPRAY WATER ONTO A HOT ENGINE AS DAMAGE MAY OCCUR.
IMPORTANT! NEVER ADD COOLANT TO AN ENGINE THAT HAS BECOME OVERHEATED, UNTIL THE ENGINE HAS COOLED. ADDING COOLANT TO AN EXTREMELY HOT ENGINE CAN RESULT IN A CRACKED BLOCK OR CYLINDER HEAD.
Whenever coolant level checks are made check condition of the rubber seal on the Radiator Cap. Make sure the Radiator Filler Neck and Cap are clean and rinsed free of any dirt particles.
The cooling system has a total capacity of 12 quarts (11.5 liters). A 50/50 mix of anti- freeze and clean water is recommended.
Maintain the coolant level at approximately 3/4 to 1-1/2 inches below the Filler Neck seat on the Radiator when the coolant is cold.
5. Start engine and operate until warm. Recheck level and replenish, if required.
Use only a permanent-type coolant that meets Ford Specification ESE-M97B44-A. Refer to the coolant mixture chart on the container for additional antifreeze protection information. Do not use alcohol or methanol antifreeze.
Every 200 hours (more often in dusty areas) inspect the exterior of the radiator and oil cooler for obstructions. Remove all bugs, dirt, or foreign material with a soft brush or cloth. Use care to avoid damaging the fins. If available, use low pressure compressed air or a stream of water in the opposite direction of normal air flow.
Check all hoses and connections for leaks. If any of the hoses are cracked, frayed, or feel spongy, they should be replaced.
Remove debris from engine area, oil cooler, and radiator daily, clean more frequently in dirty conditions.
CHANGING ENGINE COOLANT (Fig. 31)
CAUTION
If engine has been running, pressurized hot coolant can escape and cause burns if cap is removed.
Before removing cap, allow engine to cool for at least 15 minutes or until the cap is not hot to the touch.

BELT MAINTENANCE
DRIVE BELTS
The drive belts should be properly adjusted at all times. A loose drive belt causes improper alternator, fan and water pump operation, in addition to overheating. Overtightening the belt may result in excessive wear on the alternator and water pump bearings, as well as premature wear on the belt itself. Therefore, it is recommended that a belt tension gauge be used to check and adjust the belt tension. Any belt that has
operated for a minimum of 10 minutes is considered a used belt, and when adjusted, it
must be adjusted to the reset tension shown in the specifications below:
Belt Tension Specifications
Alternator Tension
New 79-101 lbs. Used-Reset Minimum 56-75 lbs.
Governor
New 75 lbs. Used-Reset Minimum 50 lbs.
A used belt is one that has been in operation for 10 minutes or more. Reset belt tension when it meets minimum specification.
ADJUSTING BELTS
3. Hold alternator in position after proper belt
tension setting is achieved and tighten alternator and brace bolts to secure adjustment.
Governor/Cooling Fan Belt (Fig. 33)
1. To adjust belt tension, loosen upper and lower
nuts securing idler arm to front engine mount.
Figure 33

HYDRAULIC SYSTEM MAINTENANCE
CHANGING HYDRAULIC FLUID
Change hydraulic fluid after every 400 operating hours, in normal conditions. If fluid becomes contaminated, contact your local TORO distributor because the system must be flushed. Contaminated fluid looks milky or black when compared to clean oil.
1. Start engine, park machine on a level surface, set the parking brake, and shut engine off. Block the two rear wheels.
2. Clean area around hydraulic oil filter and remove filter.
3. Clean area around one hydraulic line on bottom of tank. Loosen and remove line from tank fitting and allow oil to flow into drain pan.
4. Install new filter; refer to steps 1-2 in "Replacing Hydraulic Oil Filter", for proper procedures.
5. Reinstall hydraulic line on tank fitting and tighten securely.
2. Clean area around filter mounting area. Place drain pan under filter and remove filter.
3. Lubricate new filter gasket, and fill the filter with recommended hydraulic fluid.
4. Make sure filter mounting area is clean. Screw filter on until gasket contacts mounting plate. Then tighten filter 1/2 to 2/3 turn.
5. Start engine and let run for about two minutes to purge air from the system. Stop the engine, check the hydraulic oil level, and check for leaks.
CHECKING HYDRAULIC LINES AND HOSES
CAUTION
Pin hole leaks can eject high pressure hydraulic fluid. Hydraulic fluid escaping under pressure can penetrate skin and cause injury.
6. Fill reservoir with approximately 12 gallons of
hydraulic fluid. Refer to "Checking Hydraulic Fluid". (page 18)
IMPORTANT! Use only hydraulic fluids specified. Other fluids could cause system damage.
7. Install reservoir cap. Start and run engine at
idle speed for about two minutes and turn the steering wheel lock to purge air trapped in the system. Turn the engine off.
8. Check level of fluid and add enough to raise level to specified level. DO NOT OVERFILL.
REPLACING HYDRAULIC OIL FILTER
IMPORTANT! KEEPING THE HYDRAULIC SYSTEM CLEAN IS ESSENTIAL. SERVICING THE HYDRAULIC FILTER IS CRITICAL TO THE LIFE OF THE HYDRAULIC SYSTEM.
The hydraulic filter keeps the hydraulic system relatively free of contaminants and must be serviced at regular intervals. Initially, change filter
after first ten hours of engine operation, and thereafter every 200 hours of operation or yearly, whichever comes first. Use TORO oil
filter, Part No. 86-3010, as a replacement.
Fluid accidentally injected into the skin must be surgically removed within a few hours by a doctor familiar with this form of injury or gangrene may result.
Wear gloves and use cardboard or paper to find hydraulic leaks.
Inspect hydraulic lines and hoses daily for leaks, kinked lines, loose mounting supports, wear, loose fittings, weather deterioration, and chemical deterioration. Make all necessary repairs before operating.
1. Position vehicle on a level surface, stop vehicle, engage parking brake (lock), turn engine off, and remove key from ignition switch.

TRACTION PEDAL / TRANSMISSION NEUTRAL ADJUSTMENT (Fig.43)
The traction pedal and transmission adjustments are factory pre-set to assure the transmission is in the NEUTRAL or CENTERED position. If the MULTI
®
PRO
5500 Turf Sprayer should experience "creep" when the traction pedal is in the NEUTRAL or CENTERED position, EMPTY THE TANK, and adjust as follows:
1. Position vehicle on a level surface, stop engine, engage parking brake (lock), turn engine off, and remove key from ignition switch.
2. Raise rear wheels completely off the ground surface and support with jack stands. Chock the front wheels to prevent the vehicle from rolling forward or backward.
3. Remove the control linkage from the control plate at the rod end and pull away from the control plate.
4. Pull both control arms away from the control plate bearings (Fig. 43). When the control plate is adjusted correctly, the control plate WILL NOT rotate when the control arms are pulled away.
10. Reattach the control linkage to the control plate.
TESTING THE ADJUSTMENT
1. Lower the vehicle from the jack stand.
2. Start the engine and release the Parking/
Emergency Brake Pedal.
3. Verify the proper adjustment. The vehicle SHOULD NOT experience any "creep".
If "creep" is still present, recheck the control plate adjustment and the servo adjustment.
5. If control plate IS NOT adjusted correctly, proceed to STEP 7.
6. If control plate IS adjusted correctly, proceed to STEP 8.
7. To adjust the control plate, loosen the two control plate mounting bolts, so it allows the control plate to center itself and allows the servo control arm to move independently as shown in Fig. 43 Retighten the two control plate mount bolts and verify the proper adjustment by pulling both control arms away from the control plate bearings. The control plate SHOULD NOT ROTATE! After proper adjustment proceed to STEP 10.
8. Make a chalk mark on the servo adjusting screw to use as a reference point.
9. Loosen the jam nut on the servo adjusting screw. Release the brake pedal, start the engine, and turn the servo adjusting screw counter clockwise until the rear wheels begin to move. Make a chalk line on the servo housing next to the servo screw mark to show this location. Rotate the servo adjusting screw clockwise until the rear wheels begin to rotate in the opposite direction. Make a chalk mark on the servo housing next to the servo screw mark to show this location. Turn the servo adjusting screw to midway between these two marks and retighten the jam nut.

Keep spray material from skin. If spray material comes in contact with body, wash it off immediately with clean water and detergent.
Always wear goggles and other protective equipment as recommended by the Chemical Manufacturer.
IMPORTANT: Follow the chemical manufacturer's instructions for mixing spray solution to obtain desired application rate. Do not add chemical to Tank until just before use. The concentrate should not be poured into an empty Tank: Fill tank about one-half full with clean, clear water. With agitation ON, add chemical concentrate and finish filling Tank with water.
1. Refer to "Operation" section.
OPERATION
USING THE SPRAYER:
1. With Spray Pump switch "ON" and Master
Boom switch "OFF"; drive the vehicle to the area to be sprayed.
2. With spray system at desired operating pressure to achieve the application rate of the chemical selected (see step 6 in "System Set-Up" above), proceed as follows:

51
Page 52
OPERATION
AFTER SPRAYING:
It is extremely important to carefully wash and clean the Tank after every use. Not only the Tank, but the Pump, Hoses, Nozzles, Screens, Filters, and the exterior of the Sprayer also should be cleaned.
Flush Pump After Use
One of the most common causes for faulty pump performance is "gumming" or corrosion inside the pump. Flush the Pump and entire system with a Tank cleaning agent. Mix according to the manufacturer's directions. This will dissolve most residue remaining in the pump, leaving the inside of the pump clean for the next use.
A minimum of three 50 gallon rinses usually is required for all components of the Sprayer. The addition of a detergent cleaner may be advisable in the initial washing. Directions for such and addition, if required, are included on the chemical container.
Cleaning of the Sprayer should be accomplished in an area where there is no potential for the chemicals to be washed off in surface water or to enter subsurface drainage system.
When Sprayer is not to be used for an extended period, refer to the STORAGE section of this Manual for the detailed instructions to prevent damage to the components.
PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE
Preventive maintenance is most important to assure long life of the Spray System. The following maintenance procedures should be followed on a regular basis:
Flush the entire spraying system after each use. Failure to clean the system can result in a chemical residue which can plug the Hoses and/or Nozzle Tips, Solenoids, and seriously damage the Centrifugal Pump.
Wash spray nozzles thoroughly with water. Using compressed air, blow out orifice, clean and dry. If orifice remains clogged, clean it with a soft bristled brush. Never use a metal object.
Check all of the nozzles frequently to spot any inconsistencies in the spray pattern. Worn nozzle orifices which allow a greater volume of spray material to flow through the nozzle can cause an expensive loss in chemical and/or turf damage.
SUCTION STRAINER: Turn off Suction Line Valve if Tank is full of spray solution. Remove the strainer bowl and clean the strainer screen daily when spraying wettable powders - after every 50 hours when using liquid chemical.
IMPORTANT: Do not operate the Pump dry! Be certain Suction Line Valve is opened when spraying is resumed. Damage to Spray Pump can result when operating the Sprayer with Valve closed.

PUMP MAINTENANCE
Pump Housing Disassembly
1. Using a 9/16" box end wrench, remove the four
hex-head bolts holding the pump to the mounting flange. (If necessary, tap pump casing discharge port with rubber mallet or hammer to separate.)
2. To remove the impeller nut, insert a large screwdriver or file (at least 10" long) into impeller vanes to prevent impeller from turning when loosening nut. Use a 5/8" socket wrench to remove the impeller nut by turning it counterclockwise. See Fig.46.
Figure 46
3. Once nut is removed, place a screwdriver on
each side (as in Fig. 46) behind the impeller and pry away from the mounting flange. Remove woodruff key from the shaft. Remove O-ring from the mounting flange.
Clean-Up Of Pump Housing
1. Using a bottle-type wire brush with air of hand
drill, clean the discharge port, suction port and the sealing areas of the O-ring on the Pump Casing and mounting flange. Using the port brush, clean the seal cavity in the mounting flange.
2. After wire brush cleaning, it is recommended that the Pump Casing and mounting flange be further cleaned in a solvent tank to remove rest and corrosion particles.
Seal Replacement/Pump Housing Reassembly
1. Lubricate seal cavity in mounting flange with
mineral oil or glycerin.
2. Install the stationary portion of the mechanical seal by sliding over the shaft with the ceramic side out.
IMPORTANT: Make sure both seal cavity and seal are clean and lubricated.
3. To seat the seal in the seal cavity, use a piece
of 3/4" PVC pipe 4" to 6" in length.
4. To install the rotary portion of the mechanical seal, place it over the shaft with the carbon side facing in, and press until it bottoms out against the stationary portion. See Fig. 47.
Pump Seal Removal
1. Lightly lubricate shaft with mineral oil or
glycerin for easier removal of seal.
NOTE: In the case of a severe pump seal leak, check the shaft ball bearing in the hydraulic motor for possible contamination.
2. Using a 1/2" box end wrench, remove the four
bolts holding the motor to the mounting flange. Remove motor.
3. Using a screwdriver and hammer, tap out the stationary portion of the mechanical seal from the motor side of the mounting flange. (If motor is not removed, seal can be pried out with a small screwdriver. CAUTION: The seal will be damaged by removal in this manner. A new seal must be used when Pump is reassembled.)
NOTE: This step is NOT required if servicing only the hydraulic motor.
