Setup Instructions An authorized TORO Distributor normally sets up the ProPass Top Dresser at the time of purchase. See the Setup Manual for details. This section covers only how to install the Twin Spinner option. Installation of the Twin Spinner 1. Remove the holding straps from the option. 2. To lift the option: • Lift the Twin Spinner using the support handles on each side (Figure 5). CAUTION: For safety, use two people to lift the Twin Spinner. It weighs 68 kg (150 lb).
5. 6. Turn on the fuel valve, place the throttle lever at half throttle, engage the choke, and start the engine. Once the engine starts, turn off the choke and increase the throttle to max. Test the ProPass operation. Ensure that there are no hydraulic leaks and make any adjustments needed. 7. After testing the hydraulic system, check the hydraulic fluid and add more if required. IMPORTANT: Ensure that the pendant and any cords do not drag on the ground during operation.
Operating Instructions 6. The ProPass Top Dresser has balance, weight, and handling characteristics that may be different from other types of pulled equipment. Read this Operator’s Manual carefully. With an option mounted, be aware of the ground clearance when traveling on hills. For a ProPass mounted on a tow-behind chassis, the ground clearance is 33 cm (13 in) unloaded. For a ProPass mounted on a Truckster direct connect chassis, the ground clearance is 43 cm (17 in) unloaded.
7. On tow-behind chassis turn the jack stand 90 degrees (clockwise) to the down position to support the ProPass. 8. On Truckster direct connect chassis move the jack stands to the front of the machine and turn them 90 degrees until the bottom of both jack stands points to the ground. 9. Lift the ProPass with the jack stand(s) until the weight is off the tow vehicle’s draw bar. Pull out the hitch pin. 10. Ensure that there is no further connection between the ProPass and the tow vehicle.
10. Using the work vehicle’s lift cylinder, raise the front of the ProPass until the front storage stand legs are off the ground. 11. Remove the two front storage stand legs and store them. 12. Lower the front of the ProPass onto the frame rails of the work vehicle. 13. Turn off the engine. 14. Connect the electrical power connection to the work vehicle, see Figure 9. Figure 10: Hydraulic connections How to Remove a Truck Mount ProPass from the Storage Stand 1.
12. Remove the rear mounting pins. 13. With one hand, hold the lift cylinder. With the other hand, remove the lift cylinder’s locking pin. 14. Rest the lift cylinder in the appropriate location on the work vehicle’s frame. 15. Walk around the ProPass. Ensure that it is clear of the work vehicle’s frame and secured within each of the four storage stand legs. 16. With the work vehicle in neutral gear, set the parking brake and start the engine. 17.
The Color-Coded Operating System The ProPass features a unique color-coded operation system that takes the guess-work out of setting up your Top Dresser. Simply choose your spread, identify the color and then adjust each setting to match that color to get a perfect spread every time. 1. CHOOSE YOUR SPREAD The system starts with the main operation decal found on the tailgate of the ProPass.
Wireless control: Set according to the percentage indicated in the colored section of the decal and on the chart on the back of the wireless controller. For filling aerification holes, simply adjust all settings to RED. ULTRA HEAVY Approx. Width: 9' Blade Position: B Floor Speed: 100% Spinner Speed: Red / 15% Tailgate: Red Slide Adjustment: Red SLIDE ADJUSTMENT TAILGATE The TAILGATE controls the VOLUME of material that flows from the ProPass.
4. FINE TUNING The color-coded operation system was developed to take the guess work out of getting a PERFECT SPREAD. However, with so many variables such as sand weight, granule size, moisture content etc. there may unevenness in your spread. To correct this, the base setting adjustment has an illustration indicating the correct re-positioning of the base. When the spread pattern is heavy on the inside of the spread simply slide the base in - towards the hopper.

Standard Hydraulic Control WARNING: Before operating the ProPass, read and understand the entire Operator’s Manual and all safety decals. A hydraulic flow control valve controls the speed of the option (Twin Spinner). The SPINNER icon indicates the speed percentage for the WIRELESS controller ONLY – for STANDARD hydraulics, place the control in the appropriate color area, starting at the dotted line and adjust speeds within the color zone as required.
5. Park the tow vehicle 3 m (10 ft) in front of the area required for top dressing. 6. Ensure that the on/off pendant switches are both off. On Wireless models ensure the control pendant functions are stopped. 7. Ensure that the tow vehicle’s engine is at a low rpm (revolutions per minute). Engage the tow vehicle’s hydraulics to bring fluid to operating temperature. 8. Increase rpm of tow vehicle. Turn the option on, using the on/off pendant or the control pendent on Wireless models. 9.
Wireless Control When finished working with the ProPass, always press the E-Stop button (see Figure 14) to disable the electrical system. When beginning work with the ProPass you must pull the E-Stop button back out before turning on the controller. Figure 15: Manual Override To adjust the floor, turn the black knob clockwise.

Operating the Wireless Controller WORKING MODE The wireless controller operates the FLOOR and SPINNER speeds of the ProPass through the BASE RECEIVING UNIT that is located on the ProPass and connected to the hydraulic system. The BASE UNIT must have electric power in order to program or operate the WIRELESS CONTROLLER. Any time the WIRELESS CONTROLLER is turned on it is set to operate in WORKING MODE. It defaults to the last SAVED setting and allows you to operate the ProPass according to those settings.
4) The LCD display will indicate when the SPINNERS have reached their target speed percentage. 11) Press to confirm your settings for WORKING MODE The CONTROLLER is now set to operate at these settings. If the unit is powered off, these settings will be recalled automatically when powered back on. WORKING MODE WITH ALL START: 5) When you are ready to spread material, press to SELECT the FLOOR and then again to ENGAGE the FLOOR.
ADJUSTING THE SETTINGS Adjustments can be made while the ProPass is in operation or when the ProPass is at idle. Any changes you make to the settings on the WIRELESS CONTROLLER can be SAVED and will become your new WORKING MODE. If you make a change to the settings, and do not SAVE them, the WIRELESS CONTROLLER will default back to the last saved setting. CAUTION: When SAVING changes to your adjustments, the ProPass will activate if there is any hydraulic flow.
PRESET MODE The WIRELESS CONTROLLER comes with 3 PRESET buttons that allow you to STORE commonly used or recently adjusted settings for use in WORKING MODE. For example: ‘1’ may be an Light setting for frequent topdressing, ‘2’ may be a Medium setting and ‘3’ may be a Heavy setting.
