Sprayer Use
The HARDI sprayer is for the application of crop protection chemicals and liquid fertilizers. The equipment must only be used
for this purpose. It is not allowed to use the sprayer for any other purposes.
If no local law demands that the operator must be certified to use spray equipment, it is strongly recommended to be
trained in correct plant protection and in safe handling of plant protection chemicals to prevent unnecessary risk for persons
and the environment, when carrying out your spray job.
Steel Frame
Very strong and compact steel frame / chassis with a strong chemically resistant and weatherproof electrostatic lacquer
coat. Screws and bolts etc. are made of stainless steel, or they have been Delta/Magni-treated to resist corrosion.
Tanks
The tanks are made of impact-proof polyethylene, resistant to UV radiation and chemicals.
The MainTank has a purposeful design with no sharp corners for easy cleaning.
The filling hole is placed so it can be accessed from the platform. This ensures an easy access for the filling and cleaning of
the tank, etc. The sprayer may also be equipped with a TurboFiller, a RinseTank and a CleanWaterTank. A large, easy-to-read
MainTank Level Indicator is placed beside the platform, where it is visible from the tractor cabin and in the work zone of the
sprayer.
Nominal MainTank content is 3000 or 4000 litres.
Lifetime
The expected lifetime for the sprayer is 20 years.
To obtain this successfully, these instructions should be followed:
•
All service and maintenance work must be completed in due time
•
Repair any damaged parts as quickly as possible
•
Replace or change spare parts as instructed
•
Only use original HARDI spare parts.
μ
ATTENTION! If using acidic liquid in a spray boom with stainless steel piping, this will shorten the lifetime significantly,
as these pipes are not acid-proof. Risk of corrosion and leaks.
