Multi Pro WM Turf Sprayer

The Workman 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 machine, these factors are also dependent upon the awareness, concern, and proper training of the personnel involved in the operation, maintenance and storage of the machine. Improper use or maintenance of the machine can result in injury or death.

This is a specialized utility vehicle designed for off–road use only. 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 Workman.

Not all of the attachments that adapt to the Workman are covered in this manual. See the Operator’s Manual provided with attachment for additional safety instructions.

• Operate the machine only after reading and understanding the contents of this manual.

• Never allow children to operate the sprayer.

• Never operate the sprayer without first reading and understanding the Operator's Manual. Only trained and authorized persons should operate this sprayer. Make sure that all operators are physically and mentally capable of operating the sprayer.

• This vehicle is designed to carry the operator and one passenger in the seat provided by the manufacturer. Never carry any other passengers on the vehicle.

• Never operate the sprayer when under the influence of drugs or alcohol. Even prescription drugs and cold medicines can cause drowsiness.

• Do not drive the sprayer when you are tired. Be sure to take occasional breaks. It is very important that you stay alert at all times.

• Become familiar with the controls and know how to stop the engine quickly.

• Keep all shields, safety devices, and decals in place. If a shield, safety device, or decal is malfunctioning, illegible, or damaged, repair or replace it before operating the machine.

• Always wear substantial shoes. Do not operate the machine while wearing sandals, tennis shoes, or sneakers. Do not wear loose fitting clothing or jewelry which could get caught in moving parts and cause personal injury.

• Wearing safety glasses, safety shoes, long pants, and a helmet is advisable and required by some local safety and insurance regulations.

• Keep everyone, especially children and pets, away from the areas of operation.

• Be extremely careful when operating around people. Always be aware of where bystanders might be and keep them away from the work area.

• Before operating the vehicle, always check all parts of the vehicle and any attachments. If something is wrong, stop using the vehicle. Make sure that the problem is corrected before vehicle or attachment is operated again.

• Since gasoline is highly flammable, handle it carefully.

  • Use an approved gasoline container.

  • Do not remove the cap from the fuel tank when the engine is hot or running.

  • Do not smoke while handling gasoline.

  • Fill the fuel tank outdoors, and fill it to about 25 mm (1 inch) below the top of the tank (the bottom of the filler neck). Do not overfill it.

  • Wipe up any spilled gasoline.

• Use only an approved non-metal, portable fuel container. Static electric discharge can ignite gasoline vapors in a ungrounded fuel container. Remove the fuel container from the bed of the vehicle and place on the ground away from the vehicle before filling. Keep nozzle in contact with container while filling.

• Check the safety interlock system daily for proper operation. If a switch should malfunction, replace the switch before operating machine.

• 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. Never carry passengers in the box or on attachments. Remember your passenger may not be expecting you to brake or turn and may not be ready.

• Always watch out for and avoid low overhangs such as tree limbs, door jambs, and over-head walkways. Make sure there is enough room over head to easily clear the vehicle, sprayer booms and your head.

• When starting the engine:

  • Sit on operator’s seat and ensure parking brake is engaged.

  • Disengage PTO and return hand throttle lever to Off position.

  • Move shift lever to Neutral and depress clutch pedal.

  • Keep foot off accelerator pedal.

  • Turn ignition key to Start.

• Using the machine 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:

  • Use extreme caution, reduce speed and maintain a safe distance around sand traps, ditches, creeks, ramps, and any unfamiliar areas or other hazards.

  • Watch for holes or other hidden hazards.

  • Use caution when operating vehicle on a steep slope. Normally travel straight up and down slopes. Reduce speed when making sharp turns or when turning on hillsides. Avoid turning on hillsides whenever possible.

  • 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. Shift into a lower gear before starting up or down a hill.

  • Avoid sudden stops and starts. Do not go from reverse to forward or forward to reverse without first coming to a complete stop.

  • Do not attempt sharp turns or abrupt maneuvers or other unsafe driving actions that may cause a loss of vehicle control.

  • Do not pass another vehicle traveling in the same direction at intersections, blind spots, or at other dangerous locations.

  • When draining, do not let anyone stand behind vehicle and do not drain liquid on any one’s feet.

  • Keep all bystanders away. Before backing up, look to the rear and assure no one is behind. Back up slowly.

  • 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 or stop early enough so other persons know what you plan to do. Obey all traffic rules and regulations.

  • Never operate vehicle in or near an area where there is dust or fumes in the air which are explosive. The electrical and exhaust systems of the vehicle can produce sparks capable of igniting explosive materials.

  • If ever unsure about safe operation, stop work and ask your supervisor.

• Do not use a cab on a Workman vehicle equipped with a spray system. The cab is not pressurized and will not provide adequate ventilation when used with a sprayer. The cab will also overload the vehicle when the spray system tank is full.

• Do not touch engine, transaxle, muffler or muffler manifold while engine is running or soon after it has stopped because these areas may be hot enough to cause burns.

• If the machine ever vibrates abnormally, stop immediately, turn engine off, wait for all motion to stop and inspect for damage. Repair all damage before resuming operation.

• Before getting off the seat:

  • Stop movement of the machine.

  • Shut engine off and wait for all movement to stop.

  • Set parking brake.

  • Remove key from ignition.

  Note: Block wheels if machine is on an incline.

• Lightning can cause severe injury or death. If lightning is seen or thunder is heard in the area, do not operate the machine; seek shelter.

• Only permit qualified and authorized personnel to maintain, repair, adjust, or inspect the vehicle.

• Before servicing or making adjustments to the machine, stop the engine, set the parking brake, and remove the key from the ignition to prevent someone from accidentally starting the engine.

• Empty the tank before tilting or removing sprayer from vehicle and before storage.

• Never work under a sprayer without using tank support prop rod.

• Make sure all hydraulic line connectors are tight, and all hydraulic hoses and lines are in good condition before applying pressure to the system.

• Keep body and hands away from pin hole leaks that can eject hydraulic fluid under high pressure. Use paper or cardboard, not hands, to search for leaks.

  Danger

  Hydraulic fluid escaping under pressure can have sufficient force to penetrate skin and do serious damage.

  If fluid is injected into the skin it must be surgically removed within a few hours by a doctor familiar with this form of injury or gangrene may result.

• Before disconnecting or performing any work on the hydraulic system, all pressure in system must be relieved by stopping engine, cycling dump valve from raise to lower and/or lowering the tank and attachments. If the tank must be in the raised position, secure it with the safety support.

• To make sure entire machine is in good condition, keep all nuts, bolts and screws properly tightened.

• To reduce potential fire hazard, keep the engine area free of excessive grease, grass, leaves and accumulation of dirt.

• If the engine must be running to perform a maintenance adjustment, keep hands, feet, clothing, and any parts of the body away from the engine and any moving parts. Keep everyone away.

• Do not overspeed engine by changing governor settings. Maximum engine speed is 3650 rpm. To assure safety and accuracy, have an Authorized Toro Distributor check maximum engine speed with a tachometer.

• If major repairs are ever needed or assistance is required, contact an Authorized Toro Distributor.

• To be sure of optimum performance and safety, always purchase 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 void the product warranty of The Toro® Company.

• This vehicle should not be modified without The Toro® Company’s authorization. Direct any inquiries to The Toro® Company, Commercial Division, Vehicle Engineering Dept., 300 West 82nd St., Bloomington, Minnesota 55420–1196. USA

The master-boom switch allows you to start or stop the spray operation. Press the switch to enable or disable the spray system (Figure 30).

The boom switches are located along the bottom of the control panel (Figure 30). Toggle each switch upward to turn the corresponding boom section on and downward to turn them off. When the switch is turned on, a light on the switch illuminates. These switches will only affect the spray system when the master-boom switch is on.

The application-rate switch is located on the left side of the control panel (Figure 30). Press and hold the switch upward to increase the spray system application rate, or press and hold it downward to decrease application rate.

The rate-lockout-key switch is located on the lower, left corner of the control panel (Figure 30). Turn the key counterclockwise to the locked position to disable the application rate switch, thereby keeping anyone from accidentally changing the application rate. Turn the key clockwise to the unlocked position to enable the application rate switch.

The electric boom-lift switches raise and lower their respective booms (Figure 30). There is a left and right lift switch. Press and hold the switch upward to raise the respective boom, or press and hold the switch downward to lower the respective boom.

If you install the sonic-boom and/or the foam-marker kit, you will add switches to the control panel for controlling their operation. The sprayer comes with plastic plugs in these locations.

This valve, located behind the tank (Figure 31), controls the amount of fluid that is routed to the booms by directing fluid flow to the boom.

Figure 31

1. Agitation valve
2. Regulating (rate control) valve
3. Master-boom valve
4. Flowmeter
5. Boom valves

The flowmeter measures the flow rate of the fluid (Figure 31).

These valves turn the three booms on or off (Figure 31).

The boom-bypass valves redirect the fluid flow from a boom to the tank when you turn off the boom section. You can adjust these valves to ensure that the boom pressure remains constant no matter how many booms are on. Refer to Calibrating the Boom Bypass.

This valve is located on the rear left side of the tank (Figure 32). Turn the knob on the valve to the 6 o'clock position to turn on the tank agitation and to the 8 o'clock position to turn off the tank agitation.

Figure 32

1. Agitation-control valve

Note: For agitation to work, the PTO and clutch must be engaged, and the engine must be running above an idle. If you stop the sprayer and need agitation on, place the range shift lever in the Neutral position, let out the clutch, set the parking brake, and set the hand throttle (if equipped).

The tank-drain handle is located on the left side of the machine (Figure 33). To open the tank drain, turn the handle to the 3 o’clock position. To close the drain, turn the handle to the 12 o’clock position.

Figure 33

1. Tank-drain handle

The tank lid is located in the center of the top of the tank. To open it, turn off the engine and set the parking brake, then turn the front half of the cover to the left and swing it open. You can remove the strainer inside for cleaning. To seal the tank, replace the strainer if removed, close the cover, and rotate the front half toward the right.

The anti-siphon fill receptacle, in front of the tank cover, is a hose receptacle with a threaded fitting and a 90° barbed fitting which you can direct toward the tank opening. This receptacle allows you to connect a water hose and fill the tank without contaminating the hose and water supply with the chemicals in the tank. Cut the hose to a length that allows the minimum distance between the water and the end of the hose without the hose touching the water and complying with local regulations, typically 10 to 20 cm (4 to 8 inches).

Important: Do not allow the hose receptacle to contact tank fluids. Do not lengthen the hose to allow contact with the tank fluids.

The InfoCenter LCD display shows information about your machine and battery pack such as the current battery charge, the speed, diagnostics information, and more (Figure 30). For more information, refer to Using the InfoCenter LCD Display.

   Note: You must turn the eyelet rod in half or complete revolutions so that you can assemble the rod to the boom.

7. Once the desired position has been achieved, tighten the jam nut to secure the actuator and eyelet rod.

8. Raise the boom to align the pivot with the actuator rod.

9. While holding the boom, insert the pin through both boom pivot and actuator rod (Figure 34).

10. With the pin in place, release the boom and secure the pin with the cotter previously removed.

11. Repeat the procedure for each actuator rod bearing, if necessary.

To operate the Multi Pro WM first fill the spray tank, then apply the solution to the work area, and finally clean the tank. It is important that you complete all 3 of these steps in succession to avoid damaging the sprayer. For example, do not mix and add chemicals in the spray tank at night and then spray in the morning. This would lead to separation of the chemicals and possible damage to the sprayer components.

Important: The tank markings are for reference only and cannot be considered accurate for calibration.

The Multi Pro WM has been specifically designed to have high durability in order to give it the long sprayer life you need. Different materials have been chosen for specific reasons at different locations on your sprayer to meet this goal. Unfortunately there is no single material which is perfect for all foreseeable applications.

Some chemicals are more aggressive than others and each chemical interacts differently with various materials. Some consistencies (e.g. wettable powders, charcoal) are more abrasive and lead to higher than normal wear rates. If a chemical is available in a formulation that would provide increased life to the sprayer, use this alternative formulation.

Remember to clean your sprayer thoroughly after all applications. This will do the most to ensure your sprayer has a long and trouble free life.

Install the Chemical Pre-Mix Kit for optimal mixing and exterior tank cleanliness.

Important: Ensure that the chemicals you will be using are compatible for use with Viton (see the manufacturer's label; it should indicate if it is not compatible). Using a chemical that is not compatible with Viton will degrade the O-rings in the sprayer, causing leaks.

Important: After filling the tank for the first time, check the tank straps for any play. Tighten them as necessary.

1. Stop the sprayer on a level surface, move the range selector to the Neutral position, stop the engine, and set the parking brake.

2. Determine the amount of water needed to mix the amount of chemical you need as prescribed by the chemical manufacturer.

3. Open the tank cover on the spray tank.

   The tank lid is located in the center of the top of the tank. To open it, turn the front half of the cover counterclockwise and swing it open. You can remove the strainer inside for cleaning. To seal the tank, close the cover and rotate the front half clockwise.

4. Add 3/4 of the required water to the spray tank using the anti-siphon fill receptacle.

   Important: Always use fresh clean water in the spray tank. Do not pour concentrate into an empty tank.

5. Start the engine, engage the PTO, and set the hand throttle if equipped.

6. Turn the agitation switch on.

7. Add the proper amount of chemical concentrate to the tank, as directed by the chemical manufacturer.

   Important: If you are using a wettable powder, mix the powder with a small amount of water to form a slurry before adding it to the tank

8. Add the remaining water to the tank.

   Note: For better agitation, decrease the application rate setting.

The boom lift switches on the sprayer control panel allow you to move the booms between the transport position and the spray position without leaving the operator's seat. Change boom positions while the machine is stationary.

Note: If the sprayer is mounted on a Workman HD/HDX/HDX-D, the vehicle must be locked into bed lift mode.

Important: In order to ensure that your solution remains well mixed, use the agitation feature whenever you have solution in the tank. For agitation to work, the PTO must be engaged and the engine must be running above an idle. If you stop the vehicle and need agitation on, place the shift lever in the Neutral position, set the parking brake, Engage the PTO, engage the clutch, and set the hand throttle, if equipped.

Note: This procedure assumes that the PTO is engaged and the boom valve calibration has been completed.

1. Lower the booms into position.

2. Set the master boom switch to the Off position.

3. Set the individual boom switches, as needed, to the On positions.

4. Drive to the location where you will be spraying.

5. Navigate to the Application Rate screen on the InfoCenter and set the desired rate. To do this:

   1. Ensure that the pump is On.

   2. Select the desired gear range and begin driving to your target.

   3. Verify that the monitor displays the correct application rate. If needed, manipulate the application rate switch until the monitor displays the desired application rate.

   4. Return to the location where spraying is to begin.

6. Set the master boom switch to the On position to begin spraying.

   Note: When the tank is nearly empty, the agitation may cause foaming in the tank. To prevent this, turn the agitation valve off. Alternatively, you can use an anti-foaming agent in the tank.

7. When finished spraying, set the master boom switch to the Off position to turn off all booms, then disengage the PTO lever.

• Do not overlap areas where you have previously sprayed.

• Watch for plugged nozzles. Replace all worn or damaged nozzles.

• Use the master boom switch to stop the spray flow before stopping the sprayer. Once stopped, use the neutral engine speed lock to hold the engine speed up to keep the agitation running.

• You will obtain better results if the sprayer is moving when you turn the booms on.

• Watch for changes in the application rate that may indicate that your speed has changed beyond the range of the nozzles or there is a problem with the spray system.

Important: You must always empty and clean the sprayer immediately after each use. Failure to do so may cause the chemicals to dry or thicken in the lines, clogging the pump and other components.

Note: Install the Tank Clean Rinse Kit for optimal tank cleaning.

1. Stop the sprayer, set the parking brake, place the range selector in the Neutral position, and turn off the engine.

2. Use the tank drain valve to drain any unused material from the tank and dispose of it according to local codes and the material manufacturer's instructions.

   The tank drain is located on the left side of the machine (Figure 37).

3. Fill the tank with at least 190 L (50 US gallons) of clean fresh water and close the cover.

   Note: You can use a cleaning/neutralizing agent in the water as needed. On the final rinse, use only clean, clear water.

4. Start the engine.

5. With the shift lever in the Neutral position, engage the PTO, and set the hand throttle.

6. Ensure that the agitation control valve is in the On position.

7. Set both the master boom switch and boom control switches to the On position to begin spraying.

8. Allow the water in the tank to spray out though the nozzles.

9. Check the nozzles to ensure that they are all spraying correctly.

10. Set the master boom switch to the Off position, disengage the PTO, and stop the engine.

11. Repeat steps 3 through 10 at least 2 more times to ensure that the spray system is fully cleaned.

12. Clean the strainer; refer to Cleaning the Suction Strainer.

    Important: If you used wetable powder chemicals, clean the strainer after each tank.

13. Using a garden hose, spray off the outside of the sprayer with clean water.

14. Remove the nozzles and clean them by hand. Replace damaged or worn nozzles.
