Eliminator Vacuum Tank (Tandem) User Manual

Boom Operations

After positioning the unit by the source tank,

1 .  Move the boom off of the Boom Saddle and lower so the flexible suction tip can be 

attached to the boom (Figure 23) .

2 .  Check the pump to see that it is set to Vacuum (Figure 24) .
3 .  Position the boom over the source tank opening and lower the flexible suction tip into 

the source tank .

4 .  Open the Boom Valve . This will open the valve located at the front of the tank and will 

close the valve located inline with the boom suction tube . With the inline valve closed, 
a suction will be created when the vacuum pump is engaged allowing the manure to 
be drawn out of the source tank .

5 .  Engage the the hydraulic motor to operate the vacuum pump .
6 .  Monitor the fill gauge and disengage the vacuum pump when the tank is full .
