SETUP
TRAILER-TYPE TURF TENDERS
To properly setup the Turf Tender, several items will need
to be performed in conjunction with the tow vehicle. You will
need to install the power cord and control box mount on the
tow vehicle. The power cord supplies electrical power to the
control box from the tow vehicle. This power cord should be
left in place after the initial installation.
CAUTION
Always complete a safety inspection before hooking
to the tractor and before using the Turf Tender. This
safety inspection “walk around” is described in the
safety section of this manual.
Main Power Cable
1. Route the power cord from the battery, beneath the tractor
platform, and over to the right rear fender of the tractor.
Make sure the cord does not contact any hot or moving
parts and will not be pinched under the fender. Leave
some slack in the cord at the control box end so that the
cord will not pull loose if the control box shifts or moves.
2. Using cable ties, attach the cord to the tractor in several
places. Make sure the cord will not come loose and move
into a position to become pinched or cut.
3. Attach the red wire eyelet to the positive terminal and the
black wire eyelet to the negative terminal on the tractor
battery.
Mounting The Control Box
The mounting bracket for the control box is to be mounted
in a position convenient for the operator (either on the right
rear fender, on the dash, or to the roll bar of the tractor).
Select a location for mounting the bracket making sure you
will be able to remove and install the control box from the
bracket without interference. To mount the bracket to the
fender, use the following procedure:
NOTE: If it is desired to mount the control box to
the roll bar of the tractor, a bracket must be designed
and built.
CAUTION
Do not drill holes in the roll bar to mount the control
box bracket to the roll bar. Holes in the roll bar may
weaken the structure.
Hold the bracket in the desired mounting location making
sure there are no electrical wires in the area (above and
below the fender). Using the bracket as a template, mark
the location for the four mounting holes on the fender; then
center punch the holes. Remember to allow room for removal
and installation of the control box from the bracket without
interference since the control box stays with the Turf Tender
when unhooked from the tractor.
Using a 1/4 in. drill bit, drill the holes in the fender. Using
the hardware included, secure the bracket to the fender; tighten
securely. Remove the 7/16 in. nut securing the control box to
the Turf Tender. It is for shipping purposes only and is not
needed for regular use or storage.
CAUTION
Before using Turf Tender for the first time, check
the wheel bolts to make sure they are tight. They
must be torqued to 90 ft-lb (12.4 kg-m).
WARNING
Recheck each wheel bolt’s torque within the first 1
hour of use and every 10 hours thereafter until the
bolts maintain the proper torque. Failure to do so
may result in a serious accident.
CAUTION
It is the operator’s responsibility to inspect and
torque the lug bolts upon delivery and during normal
usage.
WARNING
Check the tire pressure on all tires and look for any
obvious leaks in the hydraulic system prior to each
use. Failure to do so may result in a serious
accident.
