New Multi Pro® Sprayer Attachments

Effective, Driver-Friendly Options Offer More Choices

Sprayers ensure that pes- ticides and fertilizers are applied evenly, helping keep

golf course landscapes green, healthy and beautiful. To make this process even simpler, Toro offers several new spray options and attachments, including a redesigned spray boom and a sprayer attachment that transforms a Workman® utility vehicle into a 200-gallon sprayer.

Newly Designed Spray Boom

Combining strength and durability, Toro’s revamped spray boom is a more robust model designed for use with Multi Pro® spray vehicles and Heavy Duty Workman 200 Gallon Sprayers.

The boom offers new, improved features that make it more driver- friendly and resistant to damage.

Featuring a triangle-shaped truss structure, the system’s wings offer a strong yet lightweight design. The system allows the operator to easily switch the boom from spray mode to transport mode and back again without leaving the driver’s seat.

The system also features an innovative “Whip-Spring” cradle that holds

the boom in place during machine transport. In case of accidental contact with low overhead objects, the cradle mechanism allows the booms to break

free and avoid damage. Likewise, the double-lobed hinge cams allow the boom, while it is spraying, to break away 90 degrees to the front and rear in case of contact with trees or other objects. The boom tips are even rounded to be more tree-friendly!

In addition, the unit’s spray nozzles are strategically mounted inside the boom enclosure, helping protect them from being damaged and/or rotated, which can adversely affect the vehicle’s spray pattern. The system also comes with a heavy-duty boom actuator.

“This is a big advancement that absorbs a bit of the shock load, thereby increasing boom life,” says Toro Engineer Tim Sosnowski.

Workman 200 Spray

System Attachment

Making Toro’s premium utility vehicle even more versatile, the Workman 200 Spray System Attachment transforms the Heavy Duty Workman 3000/4000 series into a spray vehicle as effective as Toro’s popular Multi Pro units.

The attachment comes with the newly redesigned spray boom (discussed above), a 200-gallon tank and electric boom and rate control valves. The required PTO kit allows the Workman to power the sprayer. Best of all, the system is easy to attach, converting the Workman into a sprayer in less than 30 minutes after initial installation.

The new Multi Pro Spray Boom is more operator friendly and damage resistant.

This attachment enables the Workman to function like a Multi Pro sprayer in a number of ways. One key feature is the attachment’s Spray Pro® proportional drive control system, which ensures that the Workman will provide consistent spray application regardless of the vehicle’s speed.

“In a similar manner to the Multi Pro 1200/1250 sprayers, the pump output is mechanically linked to the ground speed,” says Toro Marketing Manager Greg Janey. “This means the faster

the Workman’s wheels turn, the faster the sprayer pump turns, keeping your application rate consistent even while your vehicle speed changes.”

Equipped with the Workman 200 Spray System Attachment, the traditional Workman utility vehicle is transformed into a new product— the Heavy Duty Workman 200 Gallon Sprayer.

“The attachment elevates the multi- purpose nature of the Workman utility vehicle even further,” Janey explains.

“If customers do not have a need for a dedicated sprayer, they can convert their Workman into a part-time sprayer using the Workman 200 Spray System Attachment, and it will cover their spray application needs. This attachment is simply designed to make the Workman more versatile, offering customers more options.”
