Agitation Before Resuming a Spray Job
If a spray job has been interrupted for a while, severe sedimentation may occur depending on the chemicals being used.
Before resuming the spray job, it might be necessary to agitate sedimented material.
1.
Turn the handle of the suction valve towards “Suction from main
tank”. Turn the pressure SmartValve towards “TurboFiller” and turn
the agitation valve towards “Agitation”.
2.
Engage the pump and set P.T.O. speed at 540 r.p.m. or 1000 r.p.m.
(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 to “Spraying” and start spraying.
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 flushing 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 flushing 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 flushing 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 59 for
details.
