Power Source
Connecting to a power source:
1. Ensure that the battery to connect to is
12V DC and that it is charged when in use.
2. Connect the red connector to the positive
(+) terminal and the black connector to the
negative (-)terminal.
The wiring loom uses a 15A blade fuse.
Filling
When filling the sprayer it is necessary to
use an external water source and wear the
appropriate PPE.
The following steps should be followed when
filling the tank:
1. Connect the sprayer to tow vehicle and
park on level ground.
2.
The pump should be turned off.
3. Remove the tank lid.
4. Add 20% of the tanks volume of clean
water, or more, if the chemical is in a
denser form e.g. powder.
5. Add chemical as required. Some agitation
will take place as the rest of the water is
added.
6.
Use external water source to fill main tank
(Do not exceed the tank capacity).
7. Replace the tank lid and ensure that it is
secure prior to switching on pump. You are
now ready to use the sprayer.
Spray Application
NOTE
: It is the responsibility of the operator
to ensure that the chemical mix is sufficiently
agitated and that the conditions are right
to start spraying. Operators must wear the
appropriate PPE.
1.
If wanting to spot spray only, then turn off
the ball valve in the boom line.
2. Switch pump on.
3. Allow pump to build pressure.
4. It is recommended to set the regulator to
maximum pressure (45 PSI) when using
the spray gun only. Adjust the regulator if
necessary.
5. Engage the trigger on the spray gun to
commence spot spraying.
6.
If fitted,to spray from the boom only, make
sure the ball valve leading to it is open.
Adjust the nozzle pattern by rotating the
nozzle in the appropriate direction as
required.
7. Adjust the pressure regulator to raise or
lower the spray rate to suit application. This
will ensure even and consistent coverage of
the target.
NOTE
: Refer to your chemical manufacturer's
information for determining appropriate spray
rates or consult an agronomist for further help.
Agitation should take place when filling or
through another method as deemed suitable
by the operator.
Identification
When ordering parts or requesting service
information for your sprayer, it is important to
quote the serial number and the purchase date
of your machine. This will assist with receiving
the most accurate information. The location of
the stamped ID plate is shown below.
