CARRIER VEHICLE REQUIREMENTS (CONTINUED)
When mounting the HydroSeeder
®
to the truck, one of the following methods of mounting is
acceptable:
1. Bolt the HydroSeeder
®
directly to the truck bed. Installer must ensure that the bed, as
well as the bed-to-truck and HydroSeeder
®
-to-bed connections are adequate for the
maximum weights loaded that are shown in the CARRIER VEHICLE REQUIREMENTS.
2. Mount the HydroSeeder
®
to the truck frame.
NOTE:
The T120 HydroSeeder
®
has mounting legs that are 44 in. (111.76 cm)
across and therefore require an adapter frame or a chassis bed of
adequate strength to mount to the truck’s 34 in. (86.4 cm) wide rails.
3. Place chains over the HydroSeeder
®
and around truck bed and secure with binders.
Secure the HydroSeeder
®
with blocks tied to the truck bed.
Your FINN HydroSeeder
®
should be mounted by a qualifi ed truck body
installer. Failure to comply could result in minor or moderate personal
injury. Product damage could also occur.
When using a truck with a tilt bed, make sure to chain the truck bed
down to prevent the bed from being accidentally hoisted. Failure to
comply could result in minor or moderate personal injury. Failure to comply could also result
in product or property damage.
Mounting the HydroSeeder
®
to the truck must allow for tire clearance
and frame twist. Place hard wood spacers along the length of truck
rails or use FINN spring mounting kit (part number 011562) or equivalent.
ATTACHMENTS
1. Extension hoses for reaching remote areas are available in 50 ft. (15 m) lengths. All
connections are camlock, quick-operating fittings. The hose is connected to the end of the
discharge boom in place of a nozzle. The nozzle is connected to the end of the hose and
controlled by the person on the ground. The flow is controlled by a second person on the
HydroSeeder
®
. This allows for a full pressure and volume operation.
The recirculation valve must be open when using a remote valve.
Failure to comply will result in death or serious injury.
2. For lower pressure applications, or for close-up work, i.e. around buildings, the remote
valve attachment can be used. The attachment includes semi-rigid hose with quick-
disconnect fittings along with a hand-held valve that fits the end of the hose and accepts
the standard nozzle assemblies. The hose is connected to the outlet on the discharge
pipe above the pump. The machine is run at 1/2 to 3/4 throttle and material is applied
where desired.
3. Hose Reel: The live hose reel will mount either on the HydroSeeder
®
or on the truck
frame. The 200 ft. (61 m) capacity hydraulic rewind reel will wind up and store empty
hose.
4. Hardened pump parts: Pump casing, impeller, and suction cover are treated with special
material designed to resist wear.
