position (pos 14 pict 5)
9) Hook the towing bar of the sprinkler cart to the tractor and pull out the polyethylene hose on the
field with the max speed of 3 km/h (2 mph). Before you stop the pulling pls reduce the speed
smoothly. Check if the irrigation sector is ok and eventually adjust it. Disconnect the tractor and drive
back to the machine.
Important: always leave at least one polyethylene hose ring rolled on the drum and remember that
along the first use of the machine is necessary to pull out the complete polyethylene hose not leaving
more than one or two rings on the drum so you’ll roll it up with the pressure inside.
10) Place the safety dog (non return tooth) in its working position
as shown in picture 4 pos 12.
11) Connect the main line (hydrant head or pipeline outlet) to the machine by using the flexible hose
and open a bit the hydrant then wait the water comes out from the sprinkler. Then you can open the
hydrant completely.
12) When the sprinkler is irrigating and the pressure is stable you can adjust the speed.
