II. PROCEDURES WHEN USING HOSES
Always pump clear water through hose before pumping mulch. If the inside hose liner is dry, it will
dewater the mulch, causing hose to plug.
DISCHARGE THROUGH HOSE OR HOSE REEL WITH REMOTE VALVE
1. Open recirculation valve, close discharge valve, and close remote valve at the end of hose.
2. Engage (turn on) clutch. When stream is flowing freely through the recirculation line, open
pump take-off valve.
CAUTION
The high pressure on the hose can exert strong forces, causing the potential for the hose
operator to lose control of hose or footing. The hose will require additional hose holders
when this operation occurs on slopes. Open the pump take-off valve and the remote valve
slowly and only after the hose operator is firmly positioned and has firm control of hose.
Failure to comply could result in minor or moderate personal injury. Failure to comply could
also result in product or property damage.
3. With the engine at 3/4 speed, open the remote valve at the end of hose to discharge load.
4. When finished spraying, close remote valve, disengage (turn off) clutch, and stop engine.
If using fiber mulch, retain as much water as possible in hose by elevating the hose ends or
by coupling the hose ends together.
5. If another load is to be done, see RELOADING PROCEDURE below. If finished for the day,
follow the clean-up procedure described in DAILY CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE sec-
tion on page 19, and flush out the hose.
DANGER
The recirculation valve must be open when using a remote valve. Failure to comply will
result in death or serious injury.
RELOADING PROCEDURE
1. Start at step 2 in LOADING PROCEDURE on pages 12 and 13.
2. After last load of the day, refer to CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE on pages 19 and 20.
