turnaround position. It is adjustable from 0.8 km/hr
(0.5 mph) to maximum transport speed in 0.16 km/hr
(0.1 mph) increments. Use a lower speed when the
weight and size of the attachment is large.
When using an attachment that requires a low
groundspeed, such as an aerator, you typically speed
up to turn around at the end of a pass. When using
a faster ground speed attachment, you typically
turn around slower to avoid damaging the turf or to
maneuver safely.
Maximum Work Speed
This is the maximum ground speed when the
attachment is engaged.
You can adjust the rate of an attachment by changing
ground speed. For a power attachment, limit the
speed to allow for appropriate performance, such as a
mower attachment.
Minimum Work Speed
This is the desired minimum ground speed when the
attachment is engaged. An alarm sounds and text
display occurs when the ground speed goes below
this setting. It is adjustable from 0.0 to 0.8 km/hr (0.0
to 0.5 mph) below the maximum work speed in 0.16
km/hr (0.1 mph) increments. Refer to the manual
for each attachment used to prevent damage to the
attachment.
Work Speed Adjustment Span
This parameter only applies to attachments with R
ATE
C
ONTROL
. This parameter allows the supervisor to
configure the ground speed range they allow the
operator to have when operating a rate-controlled
attachment. This range allows the operator to change
the work speed by pressing the plus or minus button
next to the cruise control only within the range. You
cans set the range between 0 and 1.6 km/hr (0 to 1
mph) in 0.16 km/hr (0.1 mph) increments to maintain
the exact maximum work speed. You use this on
an attachment like an aerator or top dresser. When
operating the Toro 1298 aerator, a speed range of
0.16 km/hr (0.1 mph) allows the operator to change
the spacing 4.8 mm (3/16 inch) wider or 4.8 mm (3/16
inch) narrower than the parameter setting. If the
supervisor sets this range to 0, the operator cannot
change the spacing in any direction.
Using the Status Display to Record the
Three-Point Positions
Note:
Ensure that the PTO drive shafts do not
bottom out and cause damaged to the machine or the
attachment. See the attachment manual for the proper
setup for the drive-line angles and drive-line length.
1.
Review your attachment manual to ensure the
drive-shaft length is correct and for the correct
operation positions.
2.
Start the Outcross machine and cycle through
the screens on the status display to show the
3-point hitch height (
).
3.
Move the 3-point hitch up and down and record
the number for the current hitch position when in
the transport position, the turn around position,
the maximum work position, and the minimum
work position (
).

Three-Point Transport Position
This is the maximum lift height of a 3-point attachment.
Set this position by lifting the attachment to the
maximum height allowed or the highest angle for a
non-engaged PTO shaft; whichever occurs first. Note
the height position on the status display screen and
enter it into the parameter setting in the InfoCenter
screen (
).
Three-Point Turn Around Position
This parameter is only required for 3-point attachments
engaged by the paddle. This is the automatic position
of the 3-point when the attachment is in turn around
or being lifted to avoid a hazard. Set this point by
lifting the 3-point attachment and confirm that the lifted
attachment does not damage the natural swales of
the turf. Note the height position on the Status Display
screen and enter it into the parameter setting in the
InfoCenter screen (
