BEFORE OPERATING ACTIVATE AND CHARGE BATTERY (Fig. 2) 1. Since battery is not filled with electrolyte or activated, bulk electrolyte with 1.260 specific gravity must be purchased from a local battery supply outlet. A WARNING Electrolyte gases are explosive and can cause serious injury o eyes, lungs and skin. Wear safety goggles and rubber gloves when working with electrolyte or battery. Charge the battery in a well ventilated place so gasses produced while charging can dissipate.
BEFORE OPERATING FILL FUEL TANK WITH GASOLINE (Fig. ) THE TOR COMPANY STRONGLY RECOMMENDS THE USE OF FRESH CLEAN, UNLEADED REGULAR GRADE GASOLINE IN TOR GASOLINE POWERED PRODUCTS. UNLEADED GASOLINE BURNS CLEANER, EXTENDS ENGINE LIFE, AND PROMOTES GOOD STARTING BY REDUCING THE BUILD-UP OF COMBUSTION CHAMBER DEPOSITS. K DANGER Because gasoline is flammable, caution must be used when storing or handling it. Do not fill fuel tank while engine is running, hot or when machine Is in an enclosed area.
BEFORE OPERATING CHECK PUMP CASE FLUID LEVEL (Fig. 6) The pump crank case is filled at the factory with approximately 40 ounces of Mobil DTE Extra Heavy oil. Cheri level of oil on dipstick before engine is first started and daily thereafter. Change oil initially after 25 hours of operation, thereafter change every 250 hours of operation The oll must be changed immediately when any contamination, sludge, water or condensation appears in oil.
CONTROLS Ignition Switch (Fig. 7) — The ignition switch, chichis used to start and stop the engine, has three positions: OFF, ON and START. Figure 7 1. Ignition Switch $. Hour Me tor 2. Choke €.

Spacing Control Lover Choke (Fig. 7) — To start engine, close carburetor choke by pulling choke control outward to the FULL position. After engine starts, regulate choke to keep engine running smoothly.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS OPERATING PRECAUTIONS 1. Before aerating, inspect the work area for debris and determine the best direction and pattern to operate machine. 2. If the machine starts to vibrate abnormally, shuttle engine off. Remove wires from spark plugs to prevent possibility of accidental starting. Check machine for damage and defective parts. Repair any damage before restarting the engine and operating the machine. 3. Use only in daylight or when there is good artificial light.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS Figure 10 1. Main Water Filter Head 2. Bleed Button 6. Reach under hood and open bleed valve on main valve at rear of machine (Fig. 11). Bleed system taunting steady flow of water comes from outlet, then close valve, Figure 11 1. Main Valve 2. Blows Naive 7. ¥ desired, valve on filterer (Fig. 12) may be opened slightly (cracked) to provide continuous fishing during operation of machine. 8. Start the engine: refer to Starting/Stopping instructions.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS CHECK INTERLOCK SYSTEM The purpose of the safety interlock system is to prevent the engine from cranking or starting unless the traction bails in NEUTRAL and prevents the water system from engaging if the machine is in the transport {raised) position. It also stops aeration it traction bail is released while operating or if machine is raised to the transport position. A CAUTION THE INTERLOCK SWITCHES ARE FOR THE OPERATOR'S PROTECTION, SO DO NOT DISCONNECT THEM.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS IMPORTANT: Do not push or tow machine faster than 3 mph because pump damage may occur. If machine must be moved a considerable distance, transport it on a truck, trailer or pulling it with traction wheal raised and secured to a dolly. Whenever machine is pushed or towed by-pass valve must be opened. Hook on front of handle is used for a tie down only, not a hitch point. 1. Unlatch and raise hood. 2. Locate by—pass valve cap on left side of hydraulic pump. 3.
TROUBLE SHOOTING Condition Cause Correction Unit wil not move when traction bail is engaged * 1. Check that motion occurs at pump pivot plate when the traction bail {s moved 2. Check olf level in Hydraulic serer. coir {gearbox} 3. Check that by ~pass valve is fully closed {clockwise) 4, Check belt tension on traction drive 1. Inspect traction push/pull cable and override assembly under tiller handier 2. Replenish, if necessary 3. Close valve 4. Adjust belt tension Unit will not transport at full speed* 1.
TROUBLE SHOOTING Condition Cause Correction Engine doss not start — will not on. Gage starter 1. Traction bail not In neutral position 2. Neutral switch tab out of adjust. men 3. Battery voltage low 4. Malfunction in electrical system 1. Correct position of traction ball 2. Adjust switch tab until Red traction light ls OFF in neutral. 3. Check battery 4. Check circuit breaker and electrical connections Unit not producing aeration holes (Pump or water valve will not star) 1.
TROUBLE SHOOTING Condition Cause Correction Unit not producing aeration holes {Injection pump stops after unit stops moving) * 1. Norma condition of neutral interlock system 1. Operator must hold Engage {start) button to aerate without moving Shallow or improper hole depth * 1. Air in system 2, If hole depth was satisfactory earlier, check density and moisture content in sol, 3. Soil composition {hard) 4.
MAINTENANCE A\ caution To avoid personal injury from inadvertent start up or contact with a hot surface, stop engine, remove key from the switch and Walt for unit to cool before servicing or making adjustments o the machine. SERVICING PER-FILTER (Fig. 18) Sediment can be removed by opening ball valve, with wale source attached, to flush. Reusable filter screen may be removed for cleaning by untwisting clear cover from filter by hand. Replace clear cover and hand tighten only.
MAINTENANCE CHANGING ENGINE OIL AND FILTER (Fig. 20 — 22) For new engines, change ofl after first 25 operating hours. Thereafter, under normal conditions, change ofl and filter after every 100 hours of operation. However, an engine operated in dusty or dirty conditions requires more frequent oil changes, If possible, run engine just before changing ofl. Warm oil flows more freely and carries mare contaminants than cold oil, 1. Position machine on a level surface. 2. Disengage hood larches and open hood. 3.
MAINTENANCE 2. Remove foam uncleaner by sliding it off the paper element. Figure 24 1. Foam P re-claaner 2. Paper Element Wash foam uncleaner in detergent soap and warm water. B. Wrap foam uncleaner in cloth and squeeze dry. Do not wring cleaner. C. Add and evenly distribute one tablespoon of engine oil to foam uncleaner. Squeeze foam uncleaner to remove excess oil. 4. Reinstall on paper element, Inspect paper element every 100 hours of operation and replace when dirty or damaged.
MAINTENANCE Figure 26 1. Low Spared Screw 2. High Speed Stop 3. Th rattle Lover 4. Cable Clamp 6. With cable clamp loose, turn the low speed screw on the governor so that the throttle stop screw en the carburetor controls engine speed. Adjust the carburetor throttle stop screw for 1000 rpm idle. 7. Adjust the governor low speed stop for 15001800 rpm. 8, Move the throttle control to the FAST position. Bend the high speed stop on the governor so the engine runs at 34503550 rpm. 9.
MAINTENANCE CHANGING GEAR CASE OIL and FILTER {Fig. 28--29) Change hydraulic off and filter initially after 25 hours of operation, thereafter change every 250 hours of operation. The gear case oil and filter must be changed immediately when any contamination, sludge, water or condensation appears. 1. Disengage hood latches and peen hood. 2. Place a drain pan under bottom of gear case. Clean area around drain plug.
MAINTENANCE A\ warning Keep body and hands away from pin hole leaks or nozzles that eject high pressure hydraulic fluid. Use cardboard or paper to find hydraulic leaks. Hydraulic fluid escaping under pressure can penetrate skin and cause in Jury. Fluid accidentally injected into the skin must be surgically removed within a fow hours by a doctor familiar with this form of injury or gangrene may result. ADJUSTING TRACTION PUMP BELT {Fig.
MAINTENANCE 7. Sat the hole spacing control in lowest setting {to life} and move Transport / Aerate switch to aerate position {transport tires retracted). Loosen two (2) screws and adjust switch tab so switches are actuated when pump controls in neutral and not actuated when pump is stroked. B, Move ignition switch to ON position, but do not start engine. Move traction bail in both directions, Red traction light should come on. Repeat step 7 if light does not come on when bail is moved in both directions.
