Troubleshooting Guide 

Here is a list of common questions, if this does not resolve your issue then please call us. 

1. The System does not work at all - 

Firstly, check that you have a live power outlet. If it’s live, then check

to see if the Power LED is on. If not check the fuse inside the control unit box. If it is blown then call us for

help. The fuse is a common 5-amp automotive type glass fuse. Next, check to see that the LOW FLUID light is

flashing. If so, add more fertilizer until it turns off, and then try the machine again.

2. I Can’t prime the System - 

Make sure that the injection tube is not connected to the check valve (for

priming), the system will not prime properly if the tube is connected. Also blowing compressed air through

the pump can free a sticky valve which can occur if the machine has been sitting dry for any time. If for any

reason, you cannot get it to prime then please call us.

3. It doesn’t inject fertilizer

 – listen carefully to see if the pump is pulsing periodically. It’s best to do this

test when using Dosage Setting # 4 as the pump will pulse more often on this setting making it easier to test.

If the pump is pulsing then re-prime the system. If the pump is not pulsing then make sure that the Flow

Sensor is fitted the correct way around and that it is wired to the control panel correctly.

If all the above points are okay, please call for further assistance.
