Intake/Siphon Tube/Screen Detail of a Typical L&G/ATV Sprayer (not including the ‘EC’Units)
‘Cut’ View of a ‘Typical’ Tank
(looking inside)
The suction line of your sprayer should contain a ‘siphon tube’ or intake tube which should be rotated so
that it just touches the bottom of the tank surface. (see Detail Views). Reach in and rotate it, as needed, if
not already in this position.
A nylon shut-off valve is threaded onto the pipe nipple at the intake location on the tank. It is at this location
so you can shut off the flow of solution to access your system’s screen for cleaning.
Checking/Cleaning the sprayer’s filter/screen:
Start your pump and before it shuts off, reach down and Shut the nylon valve to the ‘Closed’ position
(lever is perpendicular to the flow of fluid), then shut off your pump.
Unscrew the knurled nut from the shut-off valve, leaving the valve connected to the tank.
Swing (swivel) the intake assembly towards you. Look in the nut you JUST unscrewed. There is a
screen/washer there.
Remove the screen and clean as necessary. Replace when done and reassemble the entire assembly.
Make sure the valve is turned to the ‘Open’ position before restarting your pump.
