Agitation before re-starting spraying
If a spraying job has been interrupted for a while, severe sedimentation
can occur depending on chemicals being used. When re-starting spray
job it might be necessary to agitate sedimented material first.
1.
Turn the handle at the suction SmartValve towards “Suction from
Main tank”. Turn Pressure SmartValve towards “TurboFiller”. Turn
the AgitationValve towards “Agitation”.
2.
Engage the pump and set P.T.O. speed at 540 r/min or 1000 r/min
(depending on pump model).
3.
Agitation has started and should be continued for at least 10
minutes.
4.
Once the chemicals are mixed, spraying can resume. Turn pressure
SmartValve towards “Spraying” and start spraying again.
TurboFiller Rinsing
÷
NOTE! It is important to use clean water from the rinse tank.
Rinse the TurboFiller and chemical containers as follows:
Cleaning empty containers - TurboFiller lid is open
1.
Put container over the rotating rinsing nozzle in the middle of the
TurboFiller so that the nozzle is inside the container.
2.
Simultaneously press the Chemical Container Cleaning lever and
the TurboFiller suction valve. This rinses the chemical container
with the rinsing nozzle, while the rinsing liquid is emptied out of the TurboFiller.
TurboFiller rinsing - TurboFiller lid is closed
1.
Close TurboFiller lid.
2.
Turn the suction SmartValve to “Rinse tank”.
3.
Open the Turbo Deflector Valve
for 1 minute to get plenty of clean water through the hoses.
4.
Simultaneously press the Chemical Container Cleaning lever and the TurboFiller suction valve. This rinses the hopper
with the rinsing nozzle, while the rinsing liquid is emptied out of the TurboFiller.
5.
Rinse the hopper for 30-40 seconds.
6.
Open the lid to inspect if the TurboFiller is empty. If not, close the lid again and press the TurboFiller suction valve until
the TurboFiller is empty.
7.
After the last flushing, the TurboFiller suction valve must be open for at least 20 seconds after the rinse water is no
longer visible in the hopper in order to completely empty the transfer hoses into the main tank.
ATTENTION! The TurboFiller needs to be cleaned thoroughly after finishing spraying. This is to ensure that it is clean
before spraying other crops that may be sensitive to the chemicals just used. See section “Cleaning” on page 72 for
details.
