APPLICATION OF SLURRY (CONTINUED)
5. If another load is to be done, see RELOADING PROCEDURE. If finished for the day,
follow the clean-up procedure and flush out the hose.
The recirculation valve must be open when using a remote valve.
Failure to comply will result in serious injury or death.
B. EXTENSION HOSE SYSTEM - WITHOUT REMOTE VALVE
1. Connect the extension hose into the end of the discharge boom.
2. A person controlling the end of the hose directs a second operator at the machine to
control the pump clutch and adjust the engine speed.
Since the extension hose will be seeing the full output of the pump
with the recirculation closed, the equipment operator and individual at
the end of the hose should exercise extreme care when operating the unit on high pressure.
The high pressure on the hose can exert strong forces, causing potential for the hose
operator to lose control of hose or footing. The hose will require additional hose holders
when operation occurs on slopes. Engage the pump clutch only after the hose operator
is fi rmly positioned and has fi rm control of hose. Failure to comply could result in minor
personal injury, or product or property damage.
3. When hose operator is ready, signal the second operator to engage pump clutch and
slowly increase the engine RPM until the desired discharge pressure is reached.
4. When finished spraying, disengage the pump clutch, stop the engine, and close the
discharge valve. If using fiber mulch, retain as much water as possible in the hose by
elevating the hose ends or by coupling the hose ends together.
5. If another load is to be done, see RELOADING PROCEDURE. If finished for the day,
follow clean-up procedure and flush out the hose.
