prayers ensure that pes-
ticides and fertilizers are
applied evenly, helping keep
golf course landscapes green, healthy
and beautiful. To make this process even
simpler, Toro offers several new spray
options and attachments, including a
redesigned spray boom and a sprayer
attachment that transforms a Workman
®
utility vehicle into a 200-gallon sprayer.
Newly Designed Spray Boom
Combining strength and durability,
Toro’s revamped spray boom is a more
robust model designed for use with
Multi Pro
®
spray vehicles and Heavy
Duty Workman 200 Gallon Sprayers.
The boom offers new, improved
features that make it more driver-
friendly and resistant to damage.
Featuring a triangle-shaped truss
structure, the system’s wings offer a
strong yet lightweight design. The
system allows the operator to easily
switch the boom from spray mode to
transport mode and back again without
leaving the driver’s seat.
The system also features an innovative
“Whip-Spring” cradle that holds
the boom in place during machine
transport. In case of accidental contact
with low overhead objects, the cradle
mechanism allows the booms to break
free and avoid damage. Likewise, the
double-lobed hinge cams allow the
boom, while it is spraying, to break
away 90 degrees to the front and rear
in case of contact with trees or other
objects. The boom tips are even rounded
to be more tree-friendly!
In addition, the unit’s spray nozzles are
strategically mounted inside the boom
enclosure, helping protect them from
being damaged and/or rotated, which can
adversely affect the vehicle’s spray pattern.
The system also comes with a heavy-duty
boom actuator.
“This is a big advancement that
absorbs a bit of the shock load, thereby
increasing boom life,” says Toro Engineer
Tim Sosnowski.
Workman 200 Spray
System Attachment
Making Toro’s premium utility vehicle
even more versatile, the Workman 200
Spray System Attachment transforms the
Heavy Duty Workman 3000/4000 series
into a spray vehicle as effective as Toro’s
popular Multi Pro units.
The attachment comes with the
newly redesigned spray boom (discussed
above), a 200-gallon tank and electric
boom and rate control valves. The
required PTO kit allows the Workman
to power the sprayer. Best of all, the
system is easy to attach, converting
the Workman into a sprayer in less
than 30 minutes after initial
installation.
This attachment enables the
Workman to function like a Multi Pro
sprayer in a number of ways. One key
feature is the attachment’s Spray Pro
®
proportional drive control system, which
ensures that the Workman will provide
consistent spray application regardless of
the vehicle’s speed.
“In a similar manner to the Multi Pro
1200/1250 sprayers, the pump output
is mechanically linked to the ground
speed,” says Toro Marketing Manager
Greg Janey. “This means the faster
the Workman’s wheels turn, the faster
the sprayer pump turns, keeping your
application rate consistent even while
your vehicle speed changes.”
Equipped with the Workman
200 Spray System Attachment, the
traditional Workman utility vehicle is
transformed into a new product—
the Heavy Duty Workman 200
Gallon Sprayer.
“The attachment elevates the multi-
purpose nature of the Workman utility
vehicle even further,” Janey explains.
“If customers do not have a need for
a dedicated sprayer, they can convert
their Workman into a part-time sprayer
using the Workman 200 Spray System
Attachment, and it will cover their spray
application needs. This attachment is
simply designed to make the Workman
more versatile, offering customers more
options.”
