Changing the Hydraulic System Fluid and Filter

The hydraulic system filter must be changed initially, af- ter the first five hours of operation, and thereafter every 200 hours of operation or yearly, whichever comes first. Use a genuine Toro oil filter for replacement. The hy- draulic fluid must be changed every 400 hours of opera- tion or yearly, whichever comes first.

1.Park the machine on a level surface, lower the cut- ting units, set parking brake and turn the engine off.

2.If only the filter is to be changed, remove reservoir cap and insert reservoir plug (Fig. 7), to block outlet. This will retain most of the fluid in reservoir when filter is re- moved.

3.Clean the area around the hydraulic oil filter. Re- move filter from the bottom of the filter housing and allow the oil to flow into a drain pan. Use a bottom type filter wrench. Dispose of the oil filter properly.

4.Apply a film of oil on the filter gasket. Install filter by hand until gasket contacts the mounting head; then tighten filter an additional three±fourths turn.

5.Fill the reservoir to proper level, refer to Checking the Hydraulic System Fluid.

6.Place all controls in neutral or disengaged position and start engine. Run engine at lowest possible RPM to purge the system of air.

7.Run engine until lift cylinders extend and retract and forward and reverse wheel motion is achieved.

8.Stop the engine and check the oil level in reservoir, add oil if necessary.

9.Check all connections for leaks.

Pushing or Towing the Traction Unit

In case of emergency, the Reelmaster 2300±D can be towed for a short distance. However, Toro does not rec- ommend this as a standard procedure.

IMPORTANT: Do not tow the machine faster than 2±3 mph because drive system may be damaged. If machine must be moved a considerable distance, transport it on a truck or trailer.

1.Locate by±pass valve on pump and rotate it 90_ so the by±pass valve is horizontal.

2.Before the starting engine, close by±pass valve by rotating it 90_￿ so the by±pass valve is vertical. Do not start engine when valve is open.

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.
