Traction Reverse

The traction circuit operates essentially the same in re- verse as it does in the forward direction. However, the flow through the circuit is reversed and by±passes the rear wheel motor.

With the engine running, clutch engaged, and traction pedal in the neutral position, the traction pump supplies no flow to the wheel motors. When the traction pedal is pressed to the reverse position, the linkage from the pedal positions the swash plate in the traction motor so oil flows out the bottom port of the pump. Oil flow out of the bottom port goes to the wheel motors and turns them in the reverse direction. The 2WD/3WD selector valve by±passes the rear wheel in both the 2WD and 3WD positions.

Oil flowing out of the wheel motors returns to the top port of the traction pump and is continuously pumped out the

bottom port. However, oil flow to the rear wheel motor is blocked by the check valve portion of the PC flow con- troller and forced through the restriction before going to the motor. Flow is limited to 2.1 GPM to the rear wheel motor. This flow is sufficient to prevent cavitation on the rear motor in reverse.

Because of the by±passing of the rear wheel motor in re- verse and the resistance to flow of the two front wheel motors, all the traction flow is by±passed directly back to the traction pump when the traction pedal is initially pushed in the reverse direction. This direct by±passing of the traction circuit causes a delay in the response of the traction pedal in reverse until traction flow exceeds 2.1 GPM (7.9 LPM) through the PC flow controller.

The charge and shuttle valve circuits function the same in reverse as they did in the forward direction.

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.
