Transport Operation; Inspection And Clean-Up After Use; Pushing Or Towing The Machine - Toro 09802 HydroJect 3010 Operator's Manual

To do a functional check of interlock system:
1. Position the machine in a flat, open area on rough turf
and away from buried wires, plumbing, etc. Stop the
engine.
2. Move the traction bail up and down while trying to start
the engine. If the engine cranks, there is a malfunction
in the interlock system that must be corrected. If the
engine does not crank, proceed to step 3.
3. Connect the water supply to the machine. Turn on the
water supply and bleed all air out of the system. The
water pressure must be 30 psi or more. Start the engine.
Raise the machine to the transport position (up off the
rollers). Push the aerate ENGAGE button. If the water
pump engages and the machine begins aerating, there is
a malfunction in the interlock system that must be
corrected. If the machine does not begin aerating,
proceed to step 4.
4. Lower the machine to the aerate position (on the
rollers). Engage the traction bail to start the machine
moving. Push, then release the aerate ENGAGE button.
The water pump should engage immediately, then the
machine should begin aerating 5 seconds after the pump
engages. Release the traction bail to the neutral position
so that the machine stops moving. The water pump
should disengage 4 seconds after the traction bail
returns to neutral, then stop aerating after another 3
seconds. If the machine does not stop aerating when the
traction bail returns to neutral, there is a malfunction in
the interlock system that must be corrected. If the
machine stops aerating, proceed to step 5.
5. Engage the traction bail to start the machine moving,
then push the aerate ENGAGE button to begin aerating.
Push the aerate DISENGAGE button. The water pump
should disengage immediately, then stop aerating after 3
seconds. If the machine does not stop aerating, there is a
malfunction in the interlock system that must be
corrected.
Note: Lights (LED's) on the controller (Fig. 13) indicate
when the following inputs are made to the controller:
Red: Transport switch closed (traction bail in neutral)
Green: Aerate start (engage) switch closed. If the red
and yellow lights are on, the green light will stay on
until either the red or yellow goes off.
Yellow: Pump start limit switch closed (machine
lowered to aerate position) and water pressure switch
closed (water pressure of more than 30 psi) and
accumulator charge pressure switch (nitrogen pressure
more than 1800 psi).

Transport Operation

Use the traction bail to slow the machine while crossing
undulating terrain to avoid loss of control. The smooth tires
do not grip turf very well so use caution when transporting
the machine. Always approach rough areas at a reduced
speed and cross severe undulations carefully.
Inspection and Clean-Up After
Use
At the completion of operation, thoroughly wash the
machine with a garden hose without a nozzle so excessive
water pressure will not cause contamination and damage to
seals and bearings. After cleaning, it is recommended the
machine be inspected for possible hydraulic fluid or water
leaks and damage or wear to hydraulic, water, and
mechanical components.

Pushing or Towing the Machine

In an emergency, the machine can be pushed or towed for a
very short distance. However, we do not recommend this as
standard procedure.
Important
Do not push or the tow machine faster than
3 MPH because pump damage may occur. If the machine
must be moved a considerable distance, transport it on a
truck or trailer or pull it with the traction wheel raised and
secured to a dolly (Optional Hydrotote Trailer, Model
09833 available). Whenever the machine is pushed or
towed, the bypass valve must be opened. The hook on the
front of the handle is used as a tie-down only, not a hitch
point.
1. Unlatch and raise the hood.
2. Locate the bypass valve cap on the left side of the
hydraulic pump (Fig. 14).
3. Rotate the valve cap counterclockwise, move the
machine to the desired location, and close the valve cap.
4. Lower the hood and secure the latches.
