Hydraulic System Start±up

Note: When initially starting the hydraulic system with new or rebuilt components such as motors, pumps, or lift cylinders, it is important that this start±up procedure be used. This procedure reduces the chance of damag- ing the system or its components from not purging the system of air.

1.After the hydraulic system components have been properly installed and if the traction pump was rebuilt or replaced, make sure traction pump housing is at least half full of clean hydraulic oil.

2.Make sure all hydraulic connections and lines are secured tightly.

3.Make sure hydraulic reservoir is full. Add correct oil if necessary (see Checking the Hydraulic System Fluid). Drain, flush, and refill hydraulic system reservoir and change oil filter if component failure was severe or sys- tem is contaminated.

4.Disconnect electrical connector to the fuel stop so- lenoid to prevent engine from starting.

5.After repairs, check control linkage for proper ad- justment, binding, or broken parts.

6.Make sure traction pedal is in neutral and the cut- ting unit switch is off. Turn ignition key switch; engage starter for fifteen (15) seconds to the prime pump.

7.Connect electrical connector to the fuel stop sole- noid.

8.Make sure traction pedal is in neutral and the cut- ting unit switch is off. Start engine and run it at low idle. The charge pump should pick up oil and fill the hydraulic system. If there is no indication of fill in 30 seconds, stop the engine and determine the cause.

CAUTION

Be careful when operating the cutting unit reels. Contact with the reel or other mov- ing parts can result in personal injury.

9.After the hydraulic system starts to show signs of fill, accomplish the following:

A.If a reel motor was replaced or rebuilt, run the cutting units at the minimum speed setting (under no load) for 10 minutes in both directions.

B.If a reel motor drive pump was replaced or re- built, run the cutting units at the minimum speed set- ting (under no load) for 10 minutes.

C.If a traction pump or a wheel motor was replaced or rebuilt, run the traction unit so the wheels slowly turn for 10 minutes.

10.Operate the traction unit and cutting unit by gradual- ly increasing their work load to full over a 10 minute peri- od.

11.Stop the machine. Check reservoir and fill if neces- sary. Check hydraulic components for leaks and tighten any loose connections.

2600D, 2300-D specifications

The Toro 2300-D and 2600-D are industry-leading reel mowers specifically designed for the professional turf care market. Known for their durability, efficiency, and advanced technology, these models provide exceptional cutting performance for golf courses, sports fields, and other high-quality turf applications.

One of the standout features of the Toro 2300-D and 2600-D is their powerful engines. Powered by efficient diesel engines, these mowers deliver robust performance while being fuel-efficient. 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.
