The Software Guide for the Groundsmaster 5900 or 5910 rotary mower provides information for using the system information and control the system functions.
When you start the machine, the startup screen appears, displaying the corresponding icons that apply (i.e., the parking brake is applied, the PTO is in the ON position, and the cruise control is in the ON position).
Note: The following figure is an example screen; this screen is meant to show all the potential icons that could appear on the screen while operating.
Refer to the following graphic for all of the icon meanings (Figure 1).
Press the corresponding button to view screen 1 or screen 2, to stop the audible alarm, to view the fault screen, or to exit (Figure 2).
Press buttons 1 to 4 to access the pop-up menu bar on the bottom of the screen (Figure 2).
After the startup screen appears, you can select what you would like displayed in both the top, left corner and top, right corner of the display screen by pressing button 1 or button 2 on the InfoCenter control (Figure 2).
Note: When you shut off the machine, the top 2 screens remain at the previous setting before the machine was shut off.
You can toggle between the following screens by pressing button 1 and button 2:
Tachometer—top, left screen (Figure 3)
Fuel-level indicator—top, right screen (Figure 3)
12 V battery-voltage indicator—top, left screen (Figure 4)
24 V battery-voltage indicator—top, left screen (Figure 4)
Hydraulic-fluid-temperature and fan indicator—top, right screen (Figure 5)
Note: In the following example, the hydraulic-fluid-cooling fans are running at 25% speed in the forward direction.
Engine-coolant-temperature and fan indicator—top, left screen (Figure 5)
Note: In example Figure 5, the engine-coolant fans are running at 50% speed in the reverse direction.
This display (Figure 1) indicates fan speed and direction. The fan speed is controlled by the hydraulic-fluid temperature or the engine-coolant temperature, and automatically reverses as needed. A reverse cycle automatically initiates to help blow debris off the respective hood screen, when either the temperature of the engine coolant or the hydraulic fluid reaches a certain point. Additionally, the radiator fans perform a reverse cycle every 21 minutes regardless of the coolant temperature.
Fan direction is also indicated on the engine-coolant-temperature screen and the hydraulic-fluid-temperature screen. If the bar is to the right of the midpoint hash mark, the fans are running in the forward direction. If the bar is to the left of the midpoint hash mark, the fans are running in the reverse direction (Figure 5).
If a fault appears on the screen, press any key to view the active fault advisory (Figure 2).
Note: Contact your supervisor or mechanic to relay the fault advisory and determine the course of action.
Press the arrow keys to navigate the fault screen.
Press any key to reveal the information keys on the screen.
If the diesel-particulate-filter (DPF) maintenance indicator (Figure 1) appears on the screen, immediately contact your Toro distributor for service.
