General Information Operator’s Manual The Operator’s Manual provides information regarding the operation, general maintenance and maintenance intervals for your Groundsmaster machine. Refer to that publication for additional information when servicing the machine. Towing Traction Unit IMPORTANT: If towing limits are exceeded, severe damage to the piston pump may occur. If it becomes necessary to tow (or push) the machine, tow (or push) in a forward direction only and at a speed below 3 mph.
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.
Hydraulic Hose and Tube Installation (O--Ring Face Seal Fitting) 1. Make sure threads and sealing surfaces of the hose/ tube and the fitting are free of burrs, nicks, scratches or any foreign material. 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. 2.
Hydraulic Fitting Installation (SAE Straight Thread O--Ring Fitting into Component Port) Non--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. 5.

Traction Circuit: 4WD (Mow) Traction circuit pressure (forward and reverse) can be measured at test ports on the sides of the machine. The traction circuit pump and motors use a small amount of hydraulic fluid for internal lubrication. Fluid is designed to leak across traction pump and motor components into the case drain. This leakage results in the loss of hydraulic fluid from the closed loop traction circuit that must be replaced. The charge circuit is designed to replace this traction circuit leakage.

Lower Cutting Deck When the cutting decks are in a stationary position, flow from the gear pump is by--passed through the lift/lower control valve, counterbalance manifold, oil filter and traction charge circuit. To lower a side cutting deck, the appropriate lift lever on the lift/lower control valve is pushed to allow valve shift in the lift/lower control valve. This valve change causes a valve shift in the counterbalance manifold and oil flow to the rod end of the lift cylinder.

Mow Hydraulic flow for the mow circuit is supplied by two sections of the gear pump. The gear pump section closest to the piston (traction) pump supplies hydraulic flow to the side cutting decks, while the next gear pump section supplies the front cutting deck. Maximum mow circuit pressure is limited at each deck by a relief valve (RV1) in the hydraulic manifold. The front and left deck relief valves are set at 3000 PSI (207 bar) and the right deck relief valve is set at 2000 PSI (137 bar).
PTO Mow Circuit Cutting Deck Blade Braking When the operator turns the PTO switch OFF or if a deck is raised with the PTO switch ON, PTO control manifold solenoid valve (S) is de--energized causing logic cartridge (LC1) to shift (refer to information in PTO Mow Circuit in this section). This shifted cartridge allows oil return out manifold port P2.

Steering Circuit A four section gear pump is coupled to the piston (traction) pump. The third gear pump section supplies hydraulic flow to the steering control valve and the lift/lower control valve. Pump hydraulic flow is delivered to the two circuits through a proportional flow divider located in the fan drive manifold. The gear pump takes its suction from the hydraulic reservoir. Steering circuit pressure is limited to 1350 PSI (93 bar) by a relief valve located in the steering control.

Troubleshooting The charts that follow contain suggestions to assist in troubleshooting. There may possibly be more than one cause for a machine malfunction. Refer to the Testing section of this Chapter for precautions and specific test procedures. NOTE: When troubleshooting traction problems on the Groundsmaster 4000--D, if a problem exists in both 4WD and transport speeds, consider a faulty component that affects the entire traction circuit (e.g.
Problem Possible Causes Traction power is lost or unit will not operate in either direction. Hydraulic reservoir oil level is low. Piston pump by--pass valve is open or damaged. Charge pressure is low. Traction circuit pressure is low. Front wheel motor couplers are damaged. Four wheel drive will not engage. Electrical problem exists (see Chapter 5 -- Electrical System). Solenoid valve (SV) in 4WD hydraulic manifold is faulty. Cartridge valve(s) in 4WD manifold is faulty.
Problem Possible Causes Cutting decks will not raise. Engine RPM is too low. Hydraulic oil level in reservoir is low. Lift arm pivots are binding. Relief valve in lift/lower control valve is stuck. Pilot valve in lift/lower control valve is damaged or sticking. Lift cylinder(s) is (are) damaged. Gear pump section for lift/lower control valve is inefficient. Cutting decks raise, but will not stay up. NOTE: Lift cylinders cannot provide an absolutely perfect seal.
Testing Before Performing Hydraulic Tests IMPORTANT: All obvious areas such as oil supply, filter, binding linkages, loose fasteners or improper adjustments must be checked before assuming that a hydraulic component is the source of the problem. Precautions for Hydraulic Testing CAUTION Failure to use gauges with recommended pressure (PSI) rating as listed in test procedures could result in damage to the gauge and possible personal injury from leaking hot oil.

Refer to that publication for additional information when servicing the machine. Electrical Drawings The electrical schematic, circuit diagrams and wire harness drawings for the Groundsmaster 4000--D are located in Chapter 9 -- Foldout Drawings.
Special Tools Order special tools from your Toro Distributor. Some tools may also be available from a local supplier. Multimeter The meter can test electrical components and circuits for current, resistance or voltage. NOTE: Toro recommends the use of a DIGITAL Volt-Ohm--Amp multimeter when testing electrical circuits. The high impedance (internal resistance) of a digital meter in the voltage mode will make sure that excess current is not allowed through the meter.
Battery Terminal Protector Aerosol spray that should be used on battery terminals to reduce corrosion problems. Apply terminal protector after the battery cable has been secured to the battery terminal. Toro Part Number: 107--0392 Figure 4 Battery Hydrometer Use the Battery Hydrometer when measuring specific gravity of battery electrolyte. Obtain this tool locally.
Troubleshooting For effective troubleshooting and repairs, you must have a good understanding of the electrical circuits and components used on this machine (see Chapter 9 -Foldout Drawings). CAUTION Remove all jewelry, especially rings and watches, before doing any electrical troubleshooting or testing. Also, disconnect the battery cables unless the test requires battery voltage. If the machine has any interlock switches by--passed, reconnect the switches for safety and efficient troubleshooting.
Problem Possible Causes Engine cranks, but does not start. Engine is not cranking fast enough. The engine fuel run solenoid or circuit wiring is faulty. The fuel pump or circuit wiring is faulty. An engine problem exists (see Chapter 3 -- Kubota Engine). Starter cranks, but should not, when the traction pedal is depressed. The traction neutral switch is out of adjustment. The traction neutral switch or circuit wiring is faulty.
Cutting Deck Operating Problems The cutting decks remain engaged, but should not, with no operator in the seat. The seat switch or circuit wiring is faulty. Cutting decks run, but should not, when raised. Decks shut off with PTO switch. The deck position switch or circuit wiring is faulty. Cutting decks run, but should not, when raised. Decks do not shut off with the PTO switch. The deck position switch or circuit wiring and PTO switch or circuit wiring are faulty.
Electrical System Quick Checks Battery Test (Open Circuit Test) Use a multimeter to measure the voltage between the battery terminals. Set multimeter to the DC volts setting. The battery should be at a temperature of 60o to 100oF (16o to 38oC). The ignition key should be off and all accessories turned off. Connect the positive (+) meter lead to the positive battery post and the negative (--) meter lead to the negative battery post. Voltage Measured Battery Charge Level 12.
Component Testing For accurate resistance and/or continuity checks, electrically disconnect the component being tested from the circuit (e.g. unplug the ignition switch connector before checking continuity on the switch). NOTE: For engine component testing information, see the Kubota Workshop Manual, Diesel Engine, V2403--M--T--E3B Series at the end of Chapter 3 -- Kubota Diesel Engine.
Fuses The fuse blocks are located under the operator control panel. 10A 15A OPT B 10A 5A The fuses are held in three (3) fuse blocks. Use Figures 9 and 10 to identify each individual fuse and its correct amperage. Each fuse has the following functions. 10A A 10A Identification, Function and Wiring Fuse F1 (5 amp) (fuseblock location A1): Supplies power to the seat switch and seat relay. Fuse F4 (10 amp) (fuseblock location A4): Supplies power to the starter solenoid. 1 7.
Warning Lights Engine Oil Pressure Light The oil pressure light should illuminate when the ignition switch is in the ON position with the engine not running. Also, it should light with the engine running if the oil pressure drops below 7 PSI (0.5 kg/cm2). 3 2 If oil pressure light does not come on when the ignition switch is in the ON position with the engine not running: 1. Locate oil pressure switch on engine and disconnect green harness wire from switch. 4 1 2.
PTO Switch The PTO switch is used to engage or disengage the cutting decks. The PTO switch is attached to the control console next to the operator seat (Fig. 13). Testing The switch terminals are marked as shown in Figure 14. The circuitry of the PTO switch is shown in the chart below. With the use of a multimeter (ohms setting), the switch functions may be tested to determine whether continuity exists between the various terminals for each position. Verify continuity between switch terminals.
Transport / 4WD Switch The transport/4WD switch is used to set the machine traction speed for transport or mow. The transport/4WD rocker switch is located on the control console next to the operator seat (Fig. 17). Testing The switch terminals are shown in Figure 18. The circuitry of the switches is shown in the chart below. With the use of a multimeter (ohms setting), the switch functions may be tested to determine whether continuity exists between the various terminals for each position.
Cooling Fan Switch The cooling fan switch is used to control the operation of the hydraulic cooling fan and is located on the control console (Fig. 21). This switch has three (3) positions: Reverse, Auto and Forward. When the cooling fan switch is in the normal Auto position, cooling fan operation is controlled by the TEC--5002 controller.
Seat Switch The seat switch is normally open and closes when the operator is on the seat. The seat switch and its electrical connector are located in the seat assembly. If the traction system or PTO switch is engaged when the operator raises out of the seat, the engine will stop. Testing of the switch can be done without seat removal by disconnecting the seat wire from the machine wiring harness (Fig. 23). 2 Testing 1 1. Make sure the engine is off. 2.
Parking Brake Switch The switch used for the parking brake is a normally open switch that is located under the steering tower cover (Fig. 24). When the parking brake is not applied, the parking brake pawl depresses the switch plunger to close the switch. When the parking brake is applied, the parking brake pawl is positioned away from the switch plunger so the switch is in its normal, open state. Testing 1. Make sure the engine is off. Locate parking brake switch for testing. 2.

Fan drive manifold 6. RH PTO manifold 3. Install new solenoid if necessary. Torque solenoid nut to 5 ft--lb (6.7 N--m).
TEC--5002 Controller Groundsmaster 4000--D machines use a Toro Electronic Controller (TEC) to control the operation of the hydraulic cooling fan. The controller is attached to the operator platform under the console housing cover (Fig. 32). 1 Logic power is provided to the controller as long as the battery cables are connected to the battery. A 2 amp fuse in a fuse holder near the battery provides circuit protection for this logic power to the controller.
Fuel Sender The fuel sender is located on top of the fuel tank. Testing 1. Remove white wire and black ground wire from the sender. 2. Remove screws and lock washers that secure the sender to the fuel tank. FULL POSITION EMPTY POSITION 3. Remove sender and gasket from the fuel tank. Clean all fuel from the sender. NOTE: Before taking small resistance readings with a digital multimeter, short meter test leads together. The meter will display a small resistance value.
Fuel Gauge The fuel gauge can be tested using a new gauge as a substitute or with the use of a DC voltage source and a variable resistance box. CAUTION Make sure the voltage source is turned OFF before connecting it to the electrical circuit to avoid electrical shock and prevent damaging the gauge. VARIABLE RESISTANCE 14 VDC + 0.01 VDC 1. Connect fuel gauge to the variable resistance and DC voltage source (Fig. 34).
Fuel Pump The fuel pump is attached to the frame above the fuel water separator (Fig. 36). 3 2 Operational Test 1. Park machine on a level surface, lower cutting decks, stop engine and apply parking brake. 2. Disconnect wire harness electrical connector from the fuel stop solenoid to prevent the engine from firing. 3. Disconnect fuel hose (pump discharge) from the fuel water separator. 4. Make sure fuel hoses attached to the fuel pump are free of obstructions. 5.
Glow Controller The glow controller is located under the console cover (Fig. 37). 1 NOTE: Refer to electrical schematic and circuit drawings in Chapter 9 -- Foldout Drawings when troubleshooting the glow controller. 2 Glow Controller Operation 1. When the ignition switch is placed in the ON position, the controller energizes the glow plugs and lights up the glow lamp for approximately 10 seconds. 2.
Temperature Sender The temperature sender is located near the alternator on the water flange attached to the engine cylinder head (Fig. 39). The resistance of the temperature sender reduces as the engine coolant temperature increases. There is a gray harness wire attached to the terminal of the switch. 1 Testing 1. Lower coolant level in the engine and remove the temperature sender from water flange. 2 2. Suspend sender in a container of oil with a thermometer and slowly heat the oil (Fig. 40).
Dual Temperature Switch The dual temperature switch is attached to the engine near the alternator on the water flange attached to the engine cylinder head (Fig. 41). Two (2) electrical harness wires (a blue wire and a yellow wire) are attached to the switch. The terminal on the switch is used to activate the engine over temperature warning (Fig. 42). The warning illuminates the overtemp warning light and also causes the PTO to disengage. The wire harness blue wire attaches to the switch terminal. B.
Temperature Gauge The temperature gauge can be tested using a new gauge as a substitute or by the use of a DC voltage source and a variable resistance box. CAUTION Make sure the voltage source is turned OFF before connecting variable resistance to the electrical circuit to avoid electrical shock and to prevent damaging the gauge. VARIABLE RESISTANCE 14 VDC + 0.01 VDC 1. Connect temperature gauge to the variable resistance and DC voltage source (Fig. 44).
Traction Neutral Switch The traction neutral switch is closed when the traction pedal is in the neutral position and opens when the pedal is depressed in either direction. The switch is located on the right side of the piston (traction) pump (Fig. 46). Testing Test the switch by disconnecting the wires from the switch terminals and connecting a continuity tester across the two switch terminals.
Diode Circuit Board The circuit board contains four diodes (Fig. 48) and is located under the console housing. The diodes are used for circuit protection from inductive voltage spikes that occur when a hydraulic valve solenoid is de--energized. Diode D1 is in the left cutting deck circuit, D2 is in the Transport/Mow circuit, D3 is in the front cutting deck circuit and D4 is in the right cutting deck circuit.
Fusible Link Harness The Groundsmaster 4000--D uses five (5) fusible links for circuit protection. Three (3) of these fusible links are located in a harness that connects the starter B+ terminal to the wire harness (Fig. 49). An additional fusible link is used that connects the starter B+ terminal to the alternator B+ terminal (Fig. 50). The remaining fusible link is included in the wire harness and connects the starter terminal to the engine run solenoid pull coil.
Cutting Deck Position Switch The cutting deck position switches on the Groundsmaster 4000--D are located on the traction unit frame (Fig. 51 and 52). The position switch is a normally open, powered proximity switch that incorporates an internal reed switch and relay (see schematic in Figure 53). The sensing plate is located on the cutting deck lift arm. The switches for front and side decks are the same although their operation depends on deck location.
Engine Coolant and Hydraulic Oil Temperature Senders The Groundsmaster 4000--D uses two (2) temperature senders as inputs for the TEC--5002 to identify if either the engine coolant or hydraulic oil temperature has reached an excessive level. These senders are identical. The coolant temperature sender threads into the radiator (Fig. 54). The hydraulic oil temperature sender is attached to the hydraulic hydraulic tube on the left side of the machine (Fig. 55). 6.
Service and Repairs NOTE: For engine component repair information, see the Kubota Workshop Manual, Diesel Engine, V2403--M--T--E3B Series at the end of Chapter 3 -- Kubota Diesel Engine. Battery Storage If the machine will be stored for more than 30 days: 1. Remove the battery and charge it fully (see Battery Service in this section). 2. Either store battery on a shelf or on the machine. 4. Store battery in a cool atmosphere to avoid quick deterioration of the battery charge. 5.
Battery Service The battery is the heart of the electrical system. With regular and proper service, battery life can be extended. Additionally, battery and electrical component failure can be prevented. 2 CAUTION When working with batteries, use extreme caution to avoid splashing or spilling electrolyte. Electrolyte can destroy clothing and burn skin or eyes. Always wear safety goggles and a face shield when working with batteries. 1 3 Electrolyte Specific Gravity Fully charged: 1.
A. Measure the specific gravity of each cell with a hydrometer. Draw electrolyte in and out of the hydrometer barrel prior to taking a reading to warm-up the hydrometer. At the same time take the temperature of the cell. A. Check the voltage across the battery terminals prior to testing the battery. If the voltage is less than 12.4 VDC, charge the battery before performing a load test. B. If the battery has been charged, apply a 150 amp load for 15 seconds to remove the surface charge.
Battery Charging CAUTION Follow the manufacturer’s instructions when using a battery charger. NOTE: Using specific gravity of the battery cells is the most accurate method of determining battery condition. 1. Determine the battery charge level from either its specific gravity or open circuit voltage. Battery Charge Level Specific Gravity Open Circuit Voltage 100% 1.265 12.68 75% 1.225 12.45 50% 1.190 12.24 25% 1.155 12.06 0% 1.120 11.89 2.

Specifications MOUNTING: Cutting decks are supported by lift arms controlled with individual hydraulic lift levers. CONSTRUCTION: Deck chamber is welded 12 gauge steel construction reinforced with channels and plates. HEIGHT--OF--CUT RANGE: 1” to 5” (25.4 mm to 127 mm) in 1/2” (12.7 mm) increments. Front deck height-of--cut adjustment is achieved by changing spacers on castor wheels and adjusting length of deck support chains.
General Information CAUTION Never install or work on the cutting decks or lift arms with the engine running. Always stop engine and remove key first. Operator’s Manual The Operator’s Manual provides information regarding the operation, general maintenance and maintenance intervals for your Groundsmaster machine. Refer to that publication for additional information when servicing and adjusting the cutting decks on your Groundsmaster.
Troubleshooting 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, uneven ground conditions, “sponginess” or attempting to cut off too much grass height may not always be overcome by adjusting the machine. Remember that the “effective” or actual height--of--cut depends on cutting deck weight, tire pressures, hydraulic counterbalance settings and turf conditions.
