General Information Operator’s Manual The Traction Unit and Cutting Unit Operator’s Manuals provide information regarding the operation, general maintenance and maintenance intervals for your Reelmaster machine. Refer to these publications for additional information when servicing the machine. Relieving Hydraulic System Pressure To relieve hydraulic pressure in traction circuit, move traction pedal to both forward and reverse directions.
PAGE 36
Hydraulic Hoses Hydraulic hoses are subject to extreme conditions such as pressure differentials during operation and exposure to weather, sun, chemicals, very warm storage conditions or mishandling during operation and maintenance. These conditions can cause hose damage and deterioration. Some hoses are more susceptible to these conditions than others.
PAGE 37
Hydraulic Hose and Tube Installation (O−Ring Face Seal Fitting) C. Use a second wrench to tighten the nut to the correct Flats From Wrench Resistance (F.F.W.R.). The markings on the nut and fitting body will verify that the connection has been properly tightened. 1. Make sure threads and sealing surfaces of the hose/ tube and the fitting are free of burrs, nicks, scratches or any foreign material. 2.
PAGE 38
Hydraulic Fitting Installation (SAE Straight Thread O−Ring Fitting into Component Port) Non−Adjustable Fitting (Fig. 4) 1. Make sure all threads and sealing surfaces of fitting and component port are free of burrs, nicks, scratches or any foreign material. 5. If a torque wrench is not available, or if space at the port prevents use of a torque wrench, an alternate method of assembly is the Flats From Finger Tight (F.F.F.T.) method. 2.
PAGE 39
Adjustable Fitting (Fig. 6) 1. Make sure all threads and sealing surfaces of fitting and component port are free of burrs, nicks, scratches or any foreign material. 2. As a preventative measure against leakage, it is recommended that the O−ring be replaced any time the connection is opened. Lock Nut 3. Lightly lubricate the O−ring with clean hydraulic oil. Fitting threads should be clean with no lubricant applied. Back−up Washer 4. Turn back the lock nut as far as possible.

Special Tools Order the following special tools from your Toro Distributor. Hydraulic Pressure Test Kit Use to take various pressure readings for diagnostic tests. Quick disconnect fittings provided attach directly to mating fittings on machine test ports without tools. A high pressure hose is provided for remote readings. Contains one each: 1000 PSI (70 Bar), 5000 PSI (350 Bar) and 10000 PSI (700 Bar) gauges. Use gauges as recommended in Testing section of this chapter.
PAGE 41
40 GPM Hydraulic Tester (Pressure and Flow) Use to test hydraulic circuits and components for flow and pressure capacities as recommended in the Testing section of this chapter. This tester includes the following: 1. LOAD VALVE: A simulated working load is created in the circuit by turning the valve to restrict flow. 2. PRESSURE GAUGE: Glycerine filled 0 to 5000 PSI gauge to provide operating circuit pressure. 3.
PAGE 42
High Flow Hydraulic Filter Kit The high flow hydraulic filter kit is designed with large flow (40 GPM/150 LPM) and high pressure (5000 PSI/345 bar) capabilities. This kit provides for bi−directional filtration which prevents filtered debris from being allowed back into the circuit regardless of flow direction. If a component failure occurs in the closed loop traction circuit, contamination from the failed part will remain in the circuit until removed.
PAGE 43
Measuring Container Use this container for doing hydraulic motor efficiency testing (motors with case drain lines only). Measure efficiency of a hydraulic motor by restricting the outlet flow from the motor and measuring leakage from the case drain line while the motor is pressurized by the hydraulic system. The table in Figure 15 provides gallons per minute (GPM) conversion for measured milliliter or ounce motor case drain leakage.
PAGE 44
Remote Starter Switch After flushing the hydraulic system or replacing a hydraulic component (e.g. gear pump, piston pump, wheel motor), it is necessary to prime the hydraulic pumps. A remote starter switch (Fig. 17) can be used for this purpose. Obtain a remote starter switch locally. IMPORTANT: When using a remote starter switch, it is highly recommended to include a 20 amp in−line fuse between the battery and switch connector for circuit protection.

Steering Circuit With the engine running and the steering control valve in the centered position (steering wheel not being turned), hydraulic flow enters the steering control valve at the P port and goes through the control valve, by− passing the rotary meter and steering cylinder. On Reelmaster 3550−D machine, the steering circuit comes before the lift circuit. Flow leaves the steering control valve through the E port to supply the lift circuit and then the traction charge circuit.

Service and Repairs General Precautions for Removing and Installing Hydraulic System Components Before Repair or Replacement of Hydraulic Components After Repair or Replacement of Hydraulic Components 1. Before removing any parts from the hydraulic system, park machine on a level surface, engage parking brake, lower cutting units and stop engine. Remove key from the ignition switch. 1. Check oil level in the hydraulic tank and add correct oil if necessary.
PAGE 100
Check Hydraulic Lines and Hoses IMPORTANT: Check hydraulic lines and hoses daily for leaks, kinked lines, loose mounting supports, wear, loose fittings or deterioration. Make all necessary repairs before operating the machine. WARNING Keep body and hands away from pin hole leaks or nozzles that eject hydraulic fluid under high pressure. Use paper or cardboard, not hands, to search for leaks. Hydraulic fluid escaping under pressure can have sufficient force to penetrate the skin and cause serious injury.
PAGE 101
Flush Hydraulic System IMPORTANT: Flush hydraulic system when changIng from petroleum base hydraulic fluid to a biodegradable fluid such as Toro Biodegradable Hydraulic Fluid. Operate machine under normal operating conditions for at least four (4) hours before draining. IMPORTANT: If a component failure occurred in the traction circuit, refer to Traction Circuit (Closed Loop) Component Failure in this chapter for information regarding the importance of removing contamination from the traction circuit. 1.
PAGE 102
Filtering Closed−Loop Traction Circuit Filtering of a closed−loop hydraulic system after a major component failure (e.g. traction (piston) pump or wheel motor) is a requirement to prevent debris from transmitting throughout the system. If a closed−loop hydraulic system filtering tool is not used (to ensure system cleanliness) repeat failures and subsequent damage to other hydraulic components in the system will occur.

PAGE 179
Diagnostic Display Reelmaster machines are equipped with a Toro Electronic Controller (TEC) which controls machine electrical functions. The controller monitors various input switches (e.g. ignition switch, seat switch, neutral switch) and energizes outputs to actuate solenoids or relays for the requested machine function. 3 For the TEC to control the machine as desired, each of the inputs (switches and sensors) and outputs (solenoids and relays) must be connected and functioning properly.
PAGE 180
4. Turn the ignition switch to the ON position, but do not start machine. NOTE: The red text on the Diagnostic Display overlay decal refers to TEC inputs and the green text refers to TEC outputs. 5. The “inputs displayed” LED, on lower right column of the Diagnostic Display, should be illuminated. If “outputs displayed” LED is illuminated, press the toggle button on the Diagnostic Display to change to “inputs displayed” LED. 6.
PAGE 181
Verify Diagnostic Display Output Functions 3 The Diagnostic Display also has the ability to detect which outputs (solenoids, relays and indicator lights) are energized by the TEC controller. This is a quick way to determine if a machine malfunction is electrical or hydraulic. NOTE: An open output (e.g. an unplugged connector or a broken wire) cannot be detected with the Diagnostic Display.

The turn around switch is attached to a bracket outside the front right lift arm pivot pin. A plate on the front right lift arm acts as the sensing plate for the turn around switch (Fig. 42). The TEC controller monitors the position of the turn around switch (open or closed).
PAGE 208
Engine Temperature Sender The engine temperature sender is located above the alternator, in the thermostat housing (Fig. 43). The resistance of the temperature sender reduces as the engine coolant temperature increases. The TEC controller uses input from the temperature sender to control the high temperature warning light on the operator’s control panel (on or off).
PAGE 209
Start Relay The start relay is secured to the control panel assembly next to the operator seat (Fig. 45). This relay is attached to the wire harness with a five (5) wire connector (Fig. 46). The relay can be accessed by removing the control panel cover. The start relay is used to provide current to the engine starter motor. The TEC controller energizes and monitors the operation of the start relay when specific input conditions are met.
PAGE 210
NOTE: Prior to taking small resistance readings with a digital multimeter, short the meter test leads together. The meter will display a small resistance value (usually 0.5 ohms or less). This resistance is due to the internal resistance of the meter and test leads. Subtract this value from from the measured value of the component you are testing. C. Using a multimeter, verify that coil resistance between terminals 85 and 86 is from 71 to 88 ohms. D.
PAGE 211
Fuel Stop Solenoid The fuel stop solenoid includes two coils for operation: the pull coil and the hold coil. The TEC controller energizes and monitors the operation of the fuel stop solenoid when specific input conditions are met. When the ignition switch is set to RUN or START, the fuel stop solenoid is energized and the pull coil retracts the solenoid plunger. Once the plunger is retracted, the hold coil will keep it retracted for continued engine operation.
PAGE 212
Fuel Pump The fuel pump is attached to the left side of the engine near the fuel/water separator (Fig. 49). C. Make sure fuel hoses to and from the fuel pump are not kinked, damaged, and free of obstructions.

The relay can be accessed by removing the control panel cover. The glow relay is used to provide current to the engine glow plugs. The TEC controller energizes and monitors the operation of the glow relay when specific input conditions are met.
PAGE 214
NOTE: Prior to taking small resistance readings with a digital multimeter, short the meter test leads together. The meter will display a small resistance value (usually 0.5 ohms or less). This resistance is due to the internal resistance of the meter and test leads. Subtract this value from from the measured value of the component you are testing. D. Using a multimeter, verify that coil resistance between terminals 86 and 85 is approximately 72 ohms. E.
PAGE 215
Hydraulic Solenoid Valve Coils The Reelmaster hydraulic control manifolds use several hydraulic solenoid valve coils for system control. The lift manifold includes four (4) solenoid valves (S1, S2, S3, and S4). The mow manifold includes a single solenoid valve (PRV). 1 2 The TEC controller energizes and monitors the operation of the solenoid coils when specific input conditions are met. When the solenoid coils are energized, hydraulic valve shift occurs to control hydraulic circuit flow.
PAGE 216
C. Solenoid coil resistance should be measured with solenoid at approximately 68F (20C). Resistance may be slightly different than listed at different temperatures. Typically, a failed solenoid coil will either be shorted (very low or no resistance) or open (infinite resistance). Use a multimeter (ohms setting) and measure resistance between the two (2) connector terminals on the solenoid valve coil. The resistance for the solenoid coils is identified below: Solenoid Valve Coil Resistance PRV (mow) 7.

Bedknife Top Angle Indicator and Mount Toro Part Numbers: 131--6828 and 131--6829 1 Because the top grind angle on bedknives is critical for edge retention, and therefore after-- cut appearance, Toro has developed these service tools for accurately measuring the top grind angle on all bedknives. 2 3 Since there can be variations in the mounting surface of the bedbar, it is necessary to grind the bedknife after installing it to the bedbar. 1.
PAGE 260
Factors That Can Affect Cutting Performance There are a number of factors that can contribute to unsatisfactory quality of cut, some of which may be turf conditions. Turf conditions such as excessive thatch, “sponginess” or attempting to cut off too much grass height may not always be overcome by adjusting the cutting unit. It is important to remember that the lower the height--of--cut, the more critical these factors are.
PAGE 261
Factor Possible Problem/Correction Reel and bedknife sharpness A reel and/or bedknife that has rounded cutting edges or “rifling” (grooved or wavy appearance) cannot be corrected by tightening the bedknife to reel contact. Grind cutting reel to remove taper and/or rifling. Grind bedknife to sharpen and/or remove rifling. NOTE: After grinding the reel and/or bedknife, check the reel to bedknife contact again after cutting two (2) fairways.
PAGE 262
Factor Possible Problem/Correction Cutting unit alignment and carrier frame ground following Check carrier frames and lift arms for damage, binding conditions or bushing wear. Repair if necessary. Roller condition and roller type Make sure that front and rear rollers rotate freely. Repair roller bearings as necessary. See Roller Service in the Service and Repairs section of this chapter. Refer to Cutting Unit Operator’s Manual for roller options.
PAGE 263
Set Up and Adjustments Characteristics If a cutting unit is determined to be out of adjustment, complete the following procedures in the specified order to adjust the cutting unit properly. CAUTION Never install or work on the cutting units or lift arms with the engine running. Always stop engine and remove key first. The dual knob bedknife--to--reel adjustment system incorporated in this cutting unit simplifies the adjustment procedure needed to deliver optimum mowing performance.
PAGE 264
Leveling Rear Roller The precision machined components of the cutting unit frame keep the rear roller and cutting reel in alignment (parallel). If the side plates are disassembled or as the cutting reel wears, a limited amount of side plate adjustment is possible to make sure that the cutting unit is properly aligned. 2 1. Place the assembled cutting unit on a surface plate. 2. Make sure that bedknife is properly adjusted to cutting reel. 3.

Grooming Performance There are a number of factors that can affect the performance of grooming. These factors vary for different golf courses and from fairway to fairway. It is important to inspect the turf frequently and vary the grooming practice with turf needs. IMPORTANT: Improper or overaggressive use of the groomer (e.g. too deep or too frequent grooming) may cause unnecessary stress on the turf leading to severe turf damage. Use the groomer carefully.
PAGE 305
Troubleshooting Groomer Reel Mechanical Problems Problem Possible Causes Correction No rotation of the groomer reel. The groomer drive is in Neutral. Engage groomer drive to Forward or Reverse. Damaged or seized groomer drive gears. Repair groomer drive. The groomer reel blades are bent, damaged or missing. Repair or replace blades if necessary. The groomer reel shaft is bent or damaged. Replace groomer reel shaft. Grooming depth is not equal on both ends of groomer reel.
