Removal (Fig. 59)

1.Before removing any parts from the hydraulic man- ifold, park the machine on a level surface, engage the parking brake, lower the cutting units and stop the en- gine. Remove the key from the ignition switch.

CAUTION

Operate all hydraulic controls to relieve system pressure and avoid injury from pressurized hydraulic oil.

2.Raise and remove hood to get access to the front lift cylinder. Label all connections for reassembly.

3.Disconnect hose connections (1), (2), (3), and (4) from hydraulic fittings (5). Allow hoses to drain into a suitable container.

4.Put caps or plugs on disconnected hoses and fit- tings to prevent contamination.

5.Remove hydraulic fittings (5) and O±rings (7) from the lift cylinder (8).

6.Remove cotter pin (9) from the clevis pin (10). Pull clevis pin from the lift cylinder (8).

7.Remove cap screw (11) from the lift hub (12). Remove cotter pin (13) and clevis pin (14) from the clevis (15) that is on the hydraulic fitting side of the cylinder guide (15).

8.Support lift cylinder (8) and slide cylinder guide (16) from the lift hub (12).

A.Reach up from the bottom and rotate lift cylinder so the bottom port comes out of the slot in the frame.

B.Drop lift cylinder down and out from the frame. Lift hub from the cylinder support bracket (17).

9.Remove flange bushings (18) from the cylinder support bracket (17).

10.Remove lift hub (12) from the lift cylinder (8).

Installation (Fig. 59)

1.Thread lift hub (12) onto lift cylinder (8).

2.Position lift cylinder (8) inside the cylinder support bracket (17) and valve mount bracket (19). Make sure the inlet and outlet ports of the lift cylinder face the fitting side of the cylinder support bracket.

3.Align lift cylinder (8) holes with holes at bottom of the valve mount bracket (18). Slide clevis pin (14) through holes and secure pin with cotter pin (9).

4.Align lift hub (12) holes with the slots on the cylinder support bracket (17). Install flange bushings (18) into the cylinder support bracket slots.

5.Make sure flange bushings (18) are aligned with the lift hub (12) holes. Slide cylinder guide (16) through the cylinder support bracket (17), flange bushings (18), and lift hub (12).

6.Secure cylinder guide (16) by screwing cap screw

(11) fully into lift hub (12).

7.Secure clevis (15) to the cylinder guide (16) with cle- vis pin (4) and cotter pin (13).

8.Slide clevis pin (10) through the valve mount brack- et (19) and lift cylinder (8). Install and lock cotter pin (9) into the clevis pin.

9.Install hydraulic fittings (5) and O±rings (7) into the lift cylinder (8).

10.Remove caps or plugs from disconnected hoses. Connect hose connections (1), (2), (3), and (4) to hy- draulic fittings (5). Tighten hose connections

This capability ensures extended operation periods, allowing grounds crews to maintain pristine conditions across large areas without frequent refuelling stops.

Both models are equipped with Toro’s exclusive DPA (Dual Precision Adjust) cutting system, providing precise cutting heights for optimal turf health. This system allows for adjustments from 1/8 inch to 1 inch, enabling operators to achieve the correct level for various grass types and turf conditions. This level of precision ensures a clean cut and promotes the overall health of the grass.

Another notable characteristic is the ergonomic design, which includes a comfortable operator station to reduce fatigue during extended use. The controls are intuitively located, enabling easy access and operation, and the mower's compact design allows for nimble maneuverability around obstacles, ensuring that every inch of turf can be accurately maintained.

In terms of technology, the Toro 2300-D and 2600-D feature advanced traction control systems that provide excellent grip and stability on slopes and uneven terrain. The lightweight alloy construction of the frame contributes to this stability, giving operators confidence whether they are working on flat surfaces or more challenging landscapes.

Furthermore, these mowers are designed with sustainability in mind. The diesel engines not only offer efficiency but also are compliant with strict emissions standards, making them an environmentally responsible choice for turf maintenance.

The Toro 2300-D and 2600-D also feature a robust maintenance management system that alerts operators of necessary maintenance tasks, promoting longer lifespans for components and enhancing overall performance.

In summary, the Toro 2300-D and 2600-D deliver cutting-edge technologies and features, including powerful engines, versatile cutting systems, ergonomic design, advanced traction control, and sustainability focus. These models represent the pinnacle of reel mower engineering, making them ideal choices for professionals dedicated to maintaining the finest playing surfaces.
