Application
1. Determine the required Machine Valve Setting and application time according to the instructions
under PREPARATION.
2. Set the Machine Valve to the required setting.
3. Place sufficient formulation in the container to ensure that the Pickup Filter remains submerged
during application.
4. Plug the machine into an appropriate power source. See Machine Identification label for correct
voltage.
5. Turn on the machine power switch to begin application.
6. When application is completed, close Metering Valve while machine is still running.
NOTE
This will prevent possible siphoning of liquid through the nozzle should the machine tip over during
transit.
7. Turn Power Switch OFF before unplugging the unit.
Maintenance
1. Periodically clean the formulation tank using a hot water/detergent solution. Open the machine
valve to setting #10 and operate the machine for 3 to 5 minutes, flushing the solution through the
valve, lines, and nozzle.
2. Examine the electric cord for evidence of damage and replace any damaged cord immediately.
3. After 400-500 hours of operation, carefully remove the blower assembly and examine the brushes
and the commutator bars of the blower motor. If brushes are worn out, replace them. If commutator
bars are damaged, replace Blower Assembly.
4. If it becomes necessary to disassemble the Machine Flow Valve for cleaning, be careful not to
enlarge the metering orifice or damage the taper of the valve steam, as this will affect the calibration
of the machine.
5. Clean the Air Intake Filter after every application. If the filter gets saturated (wet and dripping)
while the machine is working, stop the machine and clean the filter.
Note: If it becomes necessary to operate the machine in areas where the air becomes saturated with
spray droplets and these droplets accumulate at the blower intake filter, the machine can be outfitted
with an optional “Fresh Air Intake Hose” P/N 62060.
To repair the blower/motor components and request spare parts, please see section “”Rotary Fan
Replacement”.
