Residues
There are three types of residue:
•
excessive residue remaining in the spray liquid tank when the
spraying operation is finished
→
This excessive residue is discharged diluted or pumped-out and
disposed of.
•
the technical residue that remains in the spray liquid tank, the
suction chest and the spray line when the spray pressure drops
off by 25%
The suction chest is composed of the suction filter, pump and
pressure controller sub-assemblies. Observe the values for the
technical residues given on page 118.
→
This technical residue is discharged diluted onto the field while
cleaning the field sprayer.
•
The final residue that remains in the spray liquid tank, the suc-
tion chest and the spray line after being cleaned with air dis-
charge from the nozzles.
→
This final diluted residue is drained off after cleaning.
Disposing of the residues
•
Make sure that the residue in the spray line continues to be
sprayed in an undiluted concentration. Always spray this residue
on an untreated area. The distance needed to use up this undi-
luted residue can be found in the section "Technical Data - spray
lines", page 118. The residue contained in the spray line is de-
pendent on the sprayer boom working width.
•
Switch on the agitator for spraying the spray liquid tank empty
when the residue in the spray liquid tank is only 5% of the nomi-
nal volume. With the agitator switched on, the technical residue
increases in comparison to the specified values.
•
Measures intended for the user's protection apply when empty-
ing residues. Observe the instructions from the crop protection
agent manufacturer and wear appropriate protective clothing.
