11. When you have pulled out the hose,
make sure that the wraps
remaining on the reel are tight and close together next to
the edge of the drum. If necessary, roll the drum by hand
to tighten wraps, and push them in place by hand
. This
adjustment must be done when machine is not in operation.
IMPORTANT!
The first time using the machine it is very important
to pull out all but 1 or 2 wraps of hose in order to check the level
wind setting. Remove any loose wraps that may have been created
in shipping. If level wind setting needs adjusting, contact your Micro
Rain dealer for instructions.
**Important:
Always pull cart out straight and tighten loose wraps before start up!
ALWAYS PULL TUBE
OUT STRAIGHT!
KEEP WRAPS TIGHT!
8. Pull the gun cart out straight with a consistent speed (about the
pace of a walk), and slow down when approaching the stop or
end position.
NOTE:
Always leave at least one wrap of hose on the reel.
9. Pull up on shut off valve handle to place into operational position
(open valve). This procedure must be completed with the water
source off and the sprinkler pointed away from any individuals.
10. Re-engage the anti-reverse handle and start water flow. Turn
speed control valve to the fast setting (full counter-clockwise)
and engage gearbox. Turn speed control in the clockwise
direction to slow reel to the desired speed. If you have a
computer speed control system, see page 10 for specific
instructions on operation.
