WARNING! Although the clean water tank is only filled with
clean water, this water must never be used for drinking.
A rinsing tank is integrated into the rear end of the sprayer and is
being filled via the quick coupler at the manifold system:
1. Fit the external water hose to the quick coupler on the sprayer.
2. Engage external water pump, if any.
3. Keep an eye on the level indicator situated on the platform.
4. Stop filling and replace the cover.
Capacity: 450 litres.
Only fill rinsing tank with clean water! To avoid algae developing in
the rinsing tank always drain the rinsing tank if the sprayer is not in
use for a longer period of time.
For cleaning purposes etc. the rinsing tank is also accessible via the
tank lid on top of tank.
Before spraying, the EFC operating unit is adjusted using clean water
(without chemicals).
1. Choose the correct nozzle for the spray job by turning the TRIPLET
nozzle bodies. Make sure that all nozzles are the same type and
capacity. See the “Spray Technique” book.
2. On-off switch is activated against spraying position.
3. All section valve switches are activated against spraying position.
4. Pressure regulation switch is activated until emergency handle
stops rotating (minimum pressure).
5. Put the tractor in neutral and adjust the P.T.O. and thereby the
number of revolutions of the pump corresponding to the intended
travelling speed. Remember the number of revolutions on the P.T.O.
must be kept between 300-600 rpm (pump 540 r/min) or 650-1100
rpm (pump 1000 r/min).
6. Pressure regulation switch is activated until the required pressure
is shown on the pressure gauge.
A clean water tank is fitted above the MANIFOLD system. It is acces-
sed for filling at the sprayers left side when entering the platform
(see subject “Platform”). Remove tank lid, fill with clean water and
reposition tank lid.
For use of water then turn the ball valve lever to open tap. The ball
valve is located just below the SafetyLocker on sprayers left side. The
water from this tank is for hand washing, cleaning of clogged nozz-
les etc. Only fill the clean water tank with clean water from the well.
