Shop Supplies The procedures found in this Service Manual may recommend the use of commonly used shop supplies (lubricants, sealants and adhesives). A symbol denoting the use of a shop supply may appear in figures that support a procedure. Always refer to the written procedure for specific information regarding the type and the application of a shop supply. IMPORTANT Always follow manufacturers instructions when using or storing shop supplies.
GASKET COMPOUND Used to create a seal between mating parts. Gasket compounds may be used with or without the presence of a pre-formed gasket. Gasket compounds may be solvent or silicone based, and cure when exposed to air or designed to cure in an air-less environment (anaerobic). Most gasket compounds are designed to be applied to clean surfaces free of oil, chemical residue and previously used gaskets or gasket compounds.
Special Tools You can order these special tools from your Toro Distributor. Some tools may also be available from a local tool supplier. Hydraulic Pressure Testing Kit K-Line Part No. TOR47009 Use this kit to take various pressure readings for diagnostic tests. Quick disconnect fittings are provided to attach directly to the mating fittings on the machine test ports without the tools. A high-pressure hose is given for remote readings.
150 LPM (40 GPM) Hydraulic Tester K-Line Part No. AT40002 Use this tester to test the hydraulic circuits and components for flow and pressure capacities. The tester flow measurement maximum is 151 LPM (40 GPM). This tester includes the following: Load Valve – Turn the valve to restrict the flow to create a simulated working load in the circuit. Pressure Gauge – A glycerine filled pressure gauge 0 to 34,500 kPa (0 to 5,000 psi) to provide operating circuit pressure.
Hydraulic Test Fitting Kit K-Line Part No. TOR4079 This kit includes a variety of O-ring face seal fittings to let you connect the test gauges into the system.
High Flow Hydraulic Filter Kit K-Line Part Number: TOR6011 The high flow hydraulic filter kit is designed with large flow (150 LPM or 40 GPM) and high pressure (34,500 kPa or 5,000 psi) capabilities. This kit provides for bidirectional filtration which prevents filtered unwanted material from entering into the circuit regardless of the flow direction. If a component failure occurs in the closed-loop traction circuit, contamination from the damaged part will remain in the circuit until you remove it.
Remote Starter Switch After flushing the hydraulic system or replacing a hydraulic component (e.g. gear pump, piston pump, drive motor), it is necessary to prime the hydraulic pumps. A remote starter switch can be used for this purpose. A remote starter switch can be purchased locally or fabricated as follows. 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.
Dielectric Gel Toro Part No. 107-0342 Use the dielectric gel to prevent corrosion of unsealed connection terminals. To ensure complete coating of the terminals, liberally apply the gel to the component and wire harness connector, plug the connector into the component, unplug the connector, apply the gel to both surfaces again, and connect the harness connector to the component again. The connectors must be fully packed with gel for effective results.

General Hydraulic System Problems The charts that follow contain suggestions that can be used to assist in diagnosing hydraulic system performance issues. The suggestions are not all−inclusive. Also, consider that there may be more than one cause for a machine problem. Review the hydraulic schematic and information on hydraulic system operation in the Hydraulic Flow Diagrams section of this Chapter. This information will be useful during the hydraulic troubleshooting process.
Traction Circuit Problems When troubleshooting traction circuit problems, if a problem exists in both low range (mow) and high range (transport) speeds, consider a faulty component that affects the entire traction circuit (e.g. charge circuit, traction circuit relief valves, piston pump). If the problem exists in low range but not in high range (transport), consider a problem that only exists in mow (e.g. solenoid valve in traction manifold, issue with front wheel motor).
Problem Possible Cause High range traction speed (transport) will not engage. An electrical problem exists that prevents solenoid valve (SV) operation in traction manifold (see Chapter 6: Electrical System (page 6–1)). Solenoid valve SV in traction manifold is leaking or faulty. PD cartridge valve(s) in traction manifold is (are) leaking, damaged or sticking. Parking brake cannot be disengaged with engine running.
PTO Problems Problem Possible Cause None of the cutting decks will operate. An electrical problem exists that prevents solenoid valve operation in deck manifolds (see Chapter 6: Electrical System (page 6–1)). Note: Cutting decks have to be fully lowered and floating, traction speed needs to be in low range (mow), the PTO switch needs to be engaged and the engine coolant temperature needs to be below 102 ºC (215 ºF) in order for decks to operate. Gear pump internal drive shaft failure.
Lift/Lower Circuit Problems Problem Possible Cause Cutting decks will not raise. Engine RPM is too low. Note: To raise a cutting deck, the engine must be running. Also, the operator seat has to be occupied or the parking brake must be applied with the traction pedal in neutral. Hydraulic oil level in reservoir is too low (other hydraulic systems are affected as well). Lift arm pivots are binding. Lift cylinder is damaged.
Steering Circuit Problems Problem Possible Cause Steering inoperative or sluggish. Steering components (e.g. tie rods, steering cylinder ends) are worn or binding. Steering cylinder is binding. Oil level in hydraulic reservoir is low (Note: Other hydraulic systems are affected as well). Steering relief valve (RV1) in combination manifold is stuck or damaged. Pressure compensator valve (LC) in steering/deck lift manifold is faulty. One or both of the steering cylinders leak internally.
Starting Problems 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. For effective troubleshooting and repairs, you must have a good understanding of the electrical circuits and components used on this machine (see Appendix A (page A–1)). If the machine has any interlock switches by−passed, reconnect the switches for proper troubleshooting and safety.
Problem Possible Cause Nothing happens when start attempt is made (engine does not crank). InfoCenter display operates with the key switch in the RUN position. The key switch or circuit wiring is faulty. Traction pedal position sensor or circuit wiring is faulty. The seat switch or circuit wiring is faulty (when trying to start engine in seat). The parking brake switch or circuit wiring is faulty (when trying to start engine out of seat). The start relay or circuit wiring is faulty.
General Run and Transport Problems Check the InfoCenter Display for any operator advisories or faults that may appear. Use the InfoCenter Display Diagnostics feature to help identify the problem (see DIAGNOSTICS SCREENS (page 6–22)). Problem Possible Cause Engine continues to run, but should not, when the key switch is turned off. Key switch or circuit wiring is faulty. The engine, engine ECU or fuel system is malfunctioning (see Yanmar Service Manual). The master controller is faulty.
Cutting Deck (PTO) Operating Problems Check the InfoCenter Display for any operator advisories or faults that may appear. Use the InfoCenter Display Diagnostics feature to help identify the problem (see DIAGNOSTICS SCREENS (page 6–22)). Problem Possible Cause The cutting decks remain engaged, but should not, with no operator in the seat. The seat switch or circuit wiring is faulty. A hydraulic problem in the mow circuit exists (see Chapter 5: Hydraulic System (page 5–1)). The slave TEC is faulty.
Problem Possible Cause Cutting deck(s) do not operate. Cutting decks are able to raise and lower. The operator is lifting off the seat switch. The cutting decks are not fully lowered. High temperature of engine coolant or hydraulic oil has disabled the cutting decks. Coolant temperature sender or circuit wiring is faulty. The seat switch or circuit wiring is faulty. The PTO switch or circuit wiring is faulty. The cutting deck position switch or circuit wiring is faulty.
Cutting Deck Lift/Lower Problems Check the InfoCenter Display for any operator advisories or faults that may appear. Use the InfoCenter Display Diagnostics feature to help identify the problem (see DIAGNOSTICS SCREENS (page 6–22)). Problem Possible Cause None of the cutting decks will lower. Operator is not fully depressing the seat switch. Traction unit is not in LOW speed (mow) mode. Slave TEC fuses (F−A2, F−B2, F−C2, F−D2) are faulty. The seat switch or circuit wiring is faulty.
Problem Possible Cause RH wing cutting deck will not raise or lower, but the front and LH wing cutting decks will raise and lower. RH deck raise/lower switch or circuit wiring is faulty. Lift control manifold solenoid coils S7, S8 or S9 or circuit wiring is faulty. Combination control manifold solenoid coils S7, S8 or S9 or circuit wiring is faulty. A hydraulic problem in the lift/lower circuit exists (see Chapter 5: Hydraulic System (page 5–1)). Slave TEC is faulty.
Operator Advisories Operator advisories are automatically displayed by the InfoCenter when a machine function requires additional action. Typically, an advisory can be eliminated with a change in machine controls by the operator. For example, if the operator attempts to start the engine when the traction pedal is depressed, an advisory is identified on the InfoCenter Display that the traction pedal needs to be in neutral. An advisory will not be logged into any fault log.
Advisories are available for the following functions: TO START The TO START advisory identifies that the engine starter will not engage after the key switch is turned to the START position. #5 DISENGAGE PTO: The PTO switch is in the engaged position and must be disengaged before starter will operate. #6 MOVE TRACTION PEDAL TO NEUTRAL: The traction pedal position sensor is not in the neutral position.
TO LOWER DECK The TO LOWER DECK advisory identifies that the cutting deck will not lower when a lower deck switch is pressed. The deck switch must be recycled after the advisory condition has been corrected. #302 SET MACHINE TO LOW SPEED RANGE: Machine is set to high speed range and needs to be in low speed range before decks will lower. #303 OPERATOR MUST BE SEATED: Operator needs to be in seat before cutting decks will lower.
TO SET LOW RANGE The TO SET LOW RANGE advisory identifies that low range traction speed will not engage when the High/Low range traction speed switch is pressed. #602 DISENGAGE CRUISE: Cruise control is engaged and needs to be disengaged in order to engage low speed range. #603 REDUCE GROUND SPEED: Ground speed needs to be less than 2 MPH in order to engage low speed range.
FUEL LEVEL The FUEL LEVEL advisory identifies that the fuel remaining in the tank is low. #1302 LOW ADD FUEL: Less than 5 gallons of fuel remain in the fuel tank. TRACTION PEDAL The TRACTION PEDAL advisory identifies an inaccurate or inconsistent signal from the traction pedal position sensor. #1402 CALIBRATE: The traction pedal position sensor needs to be calibrated (see Traction Pedal Position Sensor Calibration (page 6–51)).
Using the InfoCenter Display for Troubleshooting 1 2 3 4 g287506 Figure 8 1. 2. Machine function Input 3. 4. Qualifiers Outputs The Diagnostics − Input/Output screens of the InfoCenter display can be very helpful when troubleshooting machine operation issues (see DIAGNOSTICS SCREENS (page 6–22)). Some of the electrical components and the circuit wiring involved in various machine operations can be evaluated using the Input/ Output screens prior to testing each component individually.
A faulty output component will not be identified by the Input/ Output screen. If all inputs, qualifiers and outputs are correct for the machine operation selected, yet the operation does not function as it should, the output component may be faulty. In this example, the controller output is occurring but the faulty component is preventing the operation from functioning. Test the specific output and output wiring (see Testing (page 5–36)).

General Information This Chapter gives information about specifications and repair of the Yanmar diesel engine used in the Groundsmaster 5900/5910. General maintenance procedures are described in your Traction Unit Operator’s Manual. Information on engine troubleshooting, testing, disassembly and assembly is identified in the Yanmar Service Manual and Yanmar Troubleshooting Manual. Most repairs and adjustments require tools which are commonly available in many service shops.
Engine Electronic Control Unit (ECU) 1 2 g287514 Figure 13 1. Engine 2. Engine ECU The Yanmar engine that powers your Groundsmaster uses an Electronic Control Unit (ECU) for engine management and also to communicate with the Toro Electronic Controller (TEC) and the operator InfoCenter display on the machine. All wire harness electrical connectors should be plugged into the ECU before the machine key switch is moved from the OFF position to either the ON or START position.
Engine Electronic Control Unit (ECU) (continued) If the engine ECU is to be disconnected for any reason, make sure that the key switch is in the OFF position with the key removed before disconnecting the engine ECU. Also, to prevent possible ECU damage when welding on the machine, disconnect the engine ECU from the machine before welding. The engine ECU is mounted to the machine using four (4) rubber isolator mounts.
Yanmar Engine 1 2 g287514 Figure 14 1. Engine 2. Engine ECU The engine used on your Groundsmaster is a Yanmar TNV Series, turbocharged, diesel engine that complies with EPA Tier 4 emission regulations.
Diesel Particulate Filter The diesel particulate filter (DPF) used on Yanmar Tier 4F compliant engines is designed to breakdown the hazardous elements in the exhaust and prevent the discharge of unburnt fuel or oil known as particulate matter or soot. The DPF includes a Diesel Oxidation Catalyst (DOC), a Soot Filter (SF), 2 temperature sensors, and a pressure differential sensor.
Regeneration (continued) Types of regeneration that are performed automatically (while the machine is operating) (continued) Assist Occurs because of prolonged operation at low engine speed, low engine load, or when the engine ECU detects the soot filter is becoming obstructed. The engine ECU adjusts the intake throttle to raise the exhaust temperature. For software 122−0310A thru H only: the InfoCenter displays the assist regeneration icon. Reset Occurs every 100 hours of engine operation.
Regeneration (continued) Types of regeneration that are performed manually (while the machine is stationary) Type Conditions Description Parked Occurs when exhaust back pressure in the DPF increases due to continued soot buildup. May be caused by prolonged operation at low engine speed, low engine load, or the use of incorrect fuel or engine oil. Manually initiate a parked regeneration as soon as possible.
Soot Accumulation If the types of regeneration that are performed automatically (while the machine is operating) are bypassed or not allowed to complete before shutting off the engine, soot will continue to accumulate in the soot filter. When enough soot accumulates, the engine ECU will generate an engine fault to prompt a parked or recovery regeneration. In addition to an engine fault appearing on the InfoCenter, the engine output power will be reduced.
Ash Accumulation Advisories and Engine Faults (continued) Engine Power Rating Engine Speed Reduction Recommended Action Level 2: Engine Warning De-rated to 50% None Service DPF. Level 3: Engine Warning De-rated to 50% Maximum torque +200 rpm Service DPF.

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. Relieving Hydraulic System Pressure Before disconnecting or performing any work on the hydraulic system, all pressure in the hydraulic system must be relieved.
Towing Traction Unit (continued) If it becomes necessary to tow or push the machine, move machine in a forward direction at a speed below 2 mph (3.2 kph), and for a very short distance. If the machine needs to be moved more than a short distance, machine should be transported on a trailer. The piston (traction) pump high pressure relief valves include a high pressure relief valve, charge check valve and a bypass valve.
Traction Circuit Component Failure The traction circuit on Groundsmaster 5900 and 5910 machines is a closed loop system that includes the piston (traction) pump and four (4) wheel motors. If a component in the traction circuit should fail, debris and contamination from the failed component will circulate throughout the traction circuit. This contamination can damage other components in the circuit so it must be removed to prevent additional component failure.
Hydraulic Hoses The hydraulic hoses are subject to extreme conditions such as pressure differentials during operation and exposure to weather, sun, chemicals, very warm storage conditions, in addition to mishandling during operation and maintenance. These conditions can cause damage to the hose or deterioration to the hose material. Some hoses are more susceptible to these conditions than others. Examine all of the hydraulic hoses of the machine frequently and repair or replace them as necessary.

Traction Circuit Operation A variable displacement, bi−directional piston pump is directly coupled to the engine flywheel to provide hydraulic flow for the traction circuit. The piston pump swash plate movement is controlled by a pump mounted electrical displacement control. Pushing the traction pedal rotates a potentiometer that provides an input to the machine master Toro Electronic Controller (TEC).
Traction Circuit Operation (continued) The final gear pump section supplies oil to the steering, cutting deck lift and traction charge circuits. This gear pump section provides a constant supply of charge oil to the traction circuit to make up for oil that is lost to internal leakage in the traction pump and wheel motors. Charge pump flow is directed through the charge oil filter attached to the steering/deck lift manifold before entering the piston pump.

Note: See Traction Circuit Operation (page 5–14) for a description of general function of the traction circuit. With the low range traction speed (mow) selected and the traction pedal in the neutral position, the swash plate in the piston pump is not rotated so there is no oil flow from the pump and no machine traction movement.
Reverse Direction The traction circuit operates essentially the same in reverse low range as it does in the forward direction. However, the flow through the circuit is reversed. Oil flow from piston pump port B is directed to traction manifold port P2. Pump flow is then routed in parallel to both halves of the front wheel motors through port R of the motors. Flow exits the motor sections through motor ports A1 and A2.

Note: See Traction Circuit Operation (page 5–14) for a description of general function of the traction circuit. When the high range traction speed (transport) is selected, solenoid valve (SV) in the traction manifold is energized by the slave Toro electronic controller. The shifted solenoid valve (SV) spool directs charge pressure in the traction manifold to shift all six (6) pressure differential valves (PD1, PD2, PD3, PD4, PD5 and PD6) in the manifold.
Reverse Direction The traction circuit operates essentially the same in reverse high range traction speed as it does in the forward direction. However, the flow through the circuit is reversed.

A three (3) section gear pump is coupled to the piston (traction) pump. The gear pump section furthest from the piston pump supplies hydraulic flow to the steering, cutting deck lift and traction charge circuits. Hydraulic flow from the final pump section is directed to the appropriate circuits by a pressure compensator valve located in the steering/deck lift manifold.
Right Wing Deck Raise To raise the right wing deck, the rear of the right console switch is pushed to act as an input to the slave TEC. The controller provides an electrical output to solenoid valves S1 and S7 in the steering/deck lift manifold. The energized solenoid valves shift to allow a passage for circuit oil flow to the barrel end of the right deck lift cylinder. Shifted S1 prevents oil flow from returning directly to the traction charge circuit.

Each of the three (3) cutting decks is controlled by a hydraulic control manifold equipped with a proportional relief valve (PRV), logic valves (LC1) and (LC2), a sequence valve (SQ) and a brake relief cartridge (RV). The proportional relief valve is a solenoid operated valve that also functions as the circuit relief valve when the valve is energized by the slave Toro Electronic Controller (TEC). Mow circuit pressure can be measured at port (G1) of the hydraulic manifold for each cutting deck.

A three (3) section gear pump is coupled to the piston (traction) pump. The gear pump section furthest from the piston pump supplies hydraulic flow to the steering, cutting deck lift and traction charge circuits. Hydraulic flow from the final pump section is directed to the appropriate circuits by a pressure compensator valve located in the steering/deck lift control manifold. The steering control valve is a closed center, load sensing valve.
Steering Relief Operation When the steering cylinders reach the end of their stroke or if a rear wheel should encounter an obstruction (e.g. a curb) while steering, the pressure in the steering circuit will rise. Relief valve (RV1) in the steering/deck lift manifold senses this pressure increase. When steering circuit pressure builds to approximately 145 bar (2100 PSI), relief valve (RV1) opens and allows hydraulic flow to return to the hydraulic reservoir.
Testing The most effective method for isolating problems in the hydraulic system is by using hydraulic test equipment such as pressure gauges and flow meters in the circuits during various operational checks (see Special Tools (page 2–15)). 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 (continued) WARNING Before disconnecting or performing any work on the hydraulic system, all pressure in the system must be relieved and all rotating machine parts must be stopped. Stop engine; lower or support attachments. 1. Clean machine thoroughly before disconnecting or disassembling any hydraulic components. Always keep in mind the need for cleanliness when working on hydraulic equipment. Contamination will cause excessive wear of hydraulic components. 2.
Which Hydraulic Tests Are Necessary? (continued) 3. If a lift circuit problem exists, consider performing one or more of the following tests: Lift/Lower Circuit Relief Pressure, Counterbalance Pressure and/or Gear Pump Flow Tests. 4. If a steering circuit problem exists, consider performing one or more of the following tests: Steering Circuit Relief Pressure, Steering Cylinder Internal Leakage and/or Gear Pump Flow Tests.

Procedure for Gear Pump Flow Test (continued) IMPORTANT To prevent hydraulic tester damage, use 40 GPM Hydraulic Tester #AT40002 (pressure and flow) and Hose Kit for this test (see Special Tools (page 2–15)). IMPORTANT Make sure that the oil flow indicator arrow on the flow gauge is showing that the oil will flow from the hydraulic hose from the pump, through the tester and into the manifold fitting. 3.
Procedure for Gear Pump Flow Test (continued) 10. If a pressure of 69 bar (1000 PSI) cannot be obtained or flow was less than the minimum flow listed in above table, check for restriction in the pump inlet line. If inlet line is not restricted, consider that the tested gear pump section is worn or damaged. 11. After testing is completed, disconnect tester from hydraulic hose and fitting in manifold.

Service and Repairs General Precautions for Removing and Installing Hydraulic System Components Before Repair or Replacement of Components 1. Before removing any parts from the hydraulic system, park machine on a level surface, lower cutting decks fully, disengage PTO and stop engine. Remove key from the key switch. 2. Read and be familiar with all procedure steps before starting to remove, repair, replace or install hydraulic system components. 3.
After Repair or Replacement of Components (continued) 6. If piston (traction) pump, front wheel motors or rear axle motor was removed from machine for service, fill housing through case drain with new hydraulic oil before starting engine. This will ensure that internal components have adequate lubrication during initial operation. 7. After disconnecting or replacing any hydraulic components, operate machine functions slowly until air is out of system (see Charge Hydraulic System (page 5–79)). 8.
Check Hydraulic Lines and Hoses 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. If fluid is injected into the skin, it must be surgically removed within a few hours by a doctor familiar with this type of injury. Gangrene may result from such an injury.
Priming Hydraulic Pumps Whenever the hydraulic system is flushed, the hydraulic system is charged or hydraulic components are installed, it is important to properly prime the hydraulic pumps. Hydraulic pump priming ensures that the gear pump and piston (traction) pump have adequate oil during initial start−up and running. The pumps can be primed by using a remote starter switch (see Special Tools (page 2–15)) to crank engine which allows the pumps to prime.
Flush Hydraulic System IMPORTANT Flush the hydraulic system any time there is a severe component failure or the system is contaminated. Contaminated oil may appear milky or black or may contain metal particles. IMPORTANT If a component failure occurred in the closed loop traction circuit (e.g. piston pump or wheel motor), filtering the traction circuit is recommended. See Filtering Closed−Loop Traction Circuit (page 5–81). 1.
Flush Hydraulic System (continued) 8. Fill hydraulic reservoir with new hydraulic fluid. 9. Prime hydraulic pumps (see Priming Hydraulic Pumps (page 5–76)). 10. Charge the hydraulic system (see Charge Hydraulic System (page 5–79)). 11. Check condition of hydraulic oil. If the new fluid shows any signs of contamination, repeat steps 1 through 11 again until oil is clean. 12. Assume normal operation and follow recommended maintenance intervals.
Charge Hydraulic System Note: When initially starting the hydraulic system with new or rebuilt components such as motors, pumps or lift cylinders, it is important that the hydraulic system be charged properly. Air must be purged from the system to reduce the chance of component damage. IMPORTANT Change hydraulic oil filters whenever hydraulic components are repaired or replaced. 1. Park machine on a level surface, lower cutting decks fully, disengage PTO and stop engine. Remove key from the key switch. 2.
Charge Hydraulic System (continued) 9. After the hydraulic system starts to show signs of fill, actuate a lift switch until the lift cylinder rod moves in and out several times. If the lift cylinder does not move after ten (10) to fifteen (15) seconds, or if the pump emits abnormal sounds, shut the engine off immediately and determine cause or problem. Inspect for the following: A. Loose filter or suction lines. B. Blocked suction line. C. Faulty charge relief valve. D. Faulty gear pump. 10.
Filtering Closed−Loop Traction Circuit Filtering of a closed−loop hydraulic system after a major traction 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, as well as subsequent damage to other hydraulic components in the affected system, will occur.
Filtering Closed−Loop Traction Circuit (continued) IMPORTANT While engaging the traction circuit, monitor the indicator on the high flow hydraulic filter. If the indicator should show red, either reduce pressure on the traction pedal or reduce engine speed to decrease hydraulic flow through the filter. 7. With engine running at low idle speed, slowly move the traction pedal to the forward direction to allow flow through the traction circuit and high flow filter.

IMPORTANT An orifice is placed beneath the plug in the control manifold OR2, OR4, OR6 and OR8 ports. If the plugs are removed, make sure to remove the orifice, note its orientation and label its position for assembly purposes. Note: The lift control manifold includes several zero− leak plugs. These plugs have a tapered sealing surface on the plug head that is designed to resist vibration induced plug loosening. The zero−leak plugs also have an O−ring as a secondary seal.
Cartridge Valve Service 1. Make sure the entire outer surface of the manifold is clean before removing the valve. WARNING If cartridge valve service involves any valves in the steering/deck lift manifold, make sure that cutting decks are fully lowered before loosening valves in the manifold. If cutting decks are not fully lowered as valves are loosened in the steering/ deck lift manifold, a cutting deck may drop unexpectedly. 2.
Cartridge Valve Service (continued) IMPORTANT Use care when handling the valve cartridge. Slight bending or distortion of the stem tube can cause binding and malfunction. B. Fit cartridge valve carefully into manifold port. The valve should go in easily without binding. C. Tighten the cartridge valve using a deep socket (valves that thread directly into the manifold block) or an extended hex wrench socket (flange mounted cartridge valves) to the value identified in manifold service illustration.

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 the Operator’s Manual for additional information when servicing the machine. Operator Cab Components Information regarding Groundsmaster 5910 cab components (blowers, fans, pressure switches, washer pump and windshield wipers) is included in Chapter 9: Operator Cab (page 9–1).
Toro Electronic Controllers (TEC) (continued) IMPORTANT Before performing any welding on the machine, turn the battery−disconnect switch to the OFF position, disconnect the wire harness connectors from both Toro Electronic Controllers, disconnect the wire harness connectors from the engine controller and disconnect the terminal connector from the alternator to prevent damage to the machine electrical system.
Engine Electronic Control Unit (ECU) 1 g288258 Figure 136 1. Yanmar engine ECU The Yanmar engine that powers your Groundsmaster uses an Electronic Control Unit (ECU) for engine management. The engine ECU communicates with the Toro Electronic Controller (TEC) and the InfoCenter display on the machine. The engine ECU is located on the left side of the machine frame near the engine.
Battery−Disconnect Switch 1 g287496 Figure 137 1. Battery−Disconnect switch The machine includes a battery−disconnect switch located under the hood in the right rear corner of the engine compartment (Figure 137). Turning the battery disconnect switch to the OFF position opens the 12 Volt and 24 Volt battery ground circuit. The battery disconnect switch should be set to OFF when servicing the machine. The switch can be locked in the ON or OFF position if desired.
Electrical System Operation Groundsmaster 5900/5910 machines use two (2) separate electrical systems. Most machine functions operate on a typical 12 VDC system. The second system exists to operate the electric cooling fans and is 24 VDC. 12 Volt System Engine electrical components, machine operation switches, hydraulic solenoid coils, the machine Toro electronic controllers (TECs), the Yanmar engine Engine Control Unit (ECU) and the InfoCenter display are all included in the 12 VDC system.
24 Volt System (continued) In normal operating mode, the radiator fans will not operate until the engine coolant reaches the minimum temperature. Once the minimum coolant temperature is reached, the fans will begin to turn at low speed in the forward direction (pulling outside air through the radiator). The Hydraulic oil cooler fans will always run when the engine is running.
InfoCenter Display 2 1 g288346 Figure 138 1. Operator control console 2. InfoCenter Display The Groundsmaster InfoCenter Display is a LCD device that is located in the Operator control console.

Service and Repairs Batteries Groundsmaster 5900/5910 machines use two (2) separate electrical systems. Most machine functions operate on a typical 12 VDC system. Two 12 Volt batteries located at the rear of the machine are connected together in parallel to support the 12 Volt electrical system. The second system exists to operate the electric cooling fans and is 24 VDC. Two 12 Volt batteries located at the rear of the machine are connected together in series to support the 24 Volt cooling fan circuit.
Battery Care (continued) WARNING Connecting cables to the wrong battery post could result in personal injury and/or damage to the electrical system. 4. If corrosion occurs at battery terminals, turn battery− disconnect switch to the OFF position and disconnect cables. Clean clamps and terminals separately. Reconnect cables with positive (+) cables first. Coat battery posts and cable connectors with Battery Terminal Protector (Toro Part No. 107−0392) or petroleum jelly to prevent corrosion.

Battery Inspection, Maintenance, and Testing 1. Perform following inspections and maintenance: A. Check battery case for cracks. Replace battery if cracked or leaking. B. Check battery terminal posts for corrosion. Use wire brush to clean corrosion from posts. IMPORTANT Before cleaning the battery, tape or block vent holes. C. Check for signs of wetness or leakage on the top of the battery which might indicate overcharging or a loose terminal post. Also, check battery case for dirt and oil.
Battery Inspection, Maintenance, and Testing (continued) G. If the test voltage is below the minimum voltage shown in the chart, replace the battery. If the test voltage is at or above the minimum, return the battery to service. Battery Charging To minimize possible damage to the battery and to allow the battery to be fully charged, the slow charging method is presented here. This charging method can be accomplished with a constant current battery charger which is readily available.
Battery Charging (continued) CAUTION Do not charge a frozen battery because it can explode and cause injury. Let the battery warm to 16 ºC (60 ºF) before connecting to a charger. Charge the battery in a well−ventilated place to dissipate gases produced from charging. These gases are explosive; keep open flame and electrical spark away from the battery. Do not smoke. Nausea may result if the gases are inhaled.
