Welcome
Welcome to the Turfco T3000 Applicator. This manual will describe the machine, give correct
operating procedures, and help you learn and understand correct operation. Operation of this
machine without training can result in injury to the operator or damage to the machine.
The operators position is standing on a vibration isolated
platform on the rear of the machine. The forward
and reverse speeds are controlled by using a simple
directional hand control allowing the operator total
control of the speeds from 0 to 5 MPH (0 to 8.04 Km/h).
Braking is provided by a dynamic braking system within
the hydrostatic transmission and a hand operated
parking brake. Releasing the speed control will stop the
machine. The machine is designed so that it will stop
movement if the operator dismounts and releases the
speed control.
