GREASING & SERVICE PROCEDURES
1. Clean suction line filter after completion of each tank.
2. Clean pressure line filter regularly.
3. Grease tractor to sprayer PTO universal joints every
8 hours. Grease lightly until grease becomes firm in
seals. Over greasing will break seals and allow dust
and moisture to penetrate - increasing wear.
4. Grease PTO inner tubes every 8 hours. To lubricate the
inner tube, slide PTO shaft apart, clean the telescopic
tubes, grease and reassemble.
5. Grease the PTO covers every 40 hours.
6. Ensure safety covers and safety chains are in place
and in good working order.
7. Check pump air chamber pressure on a regular basis.
As a general guideline it should be 10%-20% of
operating pressure (70-100 kPa [10-15 psi]).
Refer to the pump manual for more information.
8. To ensure trouble free spraying, flush the sprayer
with fresh water thoroughly each day, and before
changing chemicals. Dispose of tank wash according
to chemical manufacturers instructions.
9. Grease all boom joints, height adjusting points and
other grease points.
EVERY 200 HOURS
1. Lubricate quick release lock pins on PTO shaft.
2. Grease all tank lid seals with vaseline.
3. Check to ensure agitators have not become blocked
with sulphur/chemicals.
4. Check pump mounts.
