PRE-INSTALLATION:
Remove the Liquifier plumbing panel from the shipping
board. The Liquifier plumbing panel has been packaged
with the “strainer end” mounting bracket in a shipping
position. Before installing the unit on your applicator, move
this bracket to the other side (inlet side) of the strainer to
allow access to strainer clean-out plug for cleaning. After
repositioning bracket, make sure all three brackets rest on
a flat surface. If necessary, loosen all six carriage bolts (two
per bracket) at base of brackets to allow all brackets to rest
flat on mounting surface of tool bar. Tighten carriage bolts
only after insuring that all three brackets rest on bar and unit
does not “teeter” on center bracket.
LIQUIFIER KIT INSTALLATION
Remove any existing metering valves. If the old metering
valve has a built-in manifold, it is recommended to install
a separate new manifold for the Liquifier kit. Another
option, although not recommended, is to use the existing
manifold, making certain the old metering valve is in the
maximum open position to allow for minimal restriction
of flow through the plumbing. There should not be any
positive shut-off valves installed in the plumbing between
the Liquifier kit shut-off valve and the knives.
Install the plumbing panel on the tool bar frame using
the carriage bolts and flange lock nuts through the top
and bottom brackets of the system. Trim any excess
length off the bolts if required. Attach the hose from the
breakaway coupler to the strainer inlet. Check for proper
hose length for operation of the disconnect mechanism of
the breakaway coupler. Connect the manifold hose to the
servo valve outlet. Check for proper hose length to avoid
kinking at the hinge points.
LIQUIFIER VAPOR TUBE INSTALLATION
Locate the 1/2” EVA vapor hose supplied with the kit.
Starting on one half of the tool bar, connect the 1/2” hose to
the outside steel vapor tube. Route the hose up the shank
and along the tool bar frame to the inside steel vapor tube.
Allow enough extra hose to avoid kinking at the hinge points.
Cut the hose to length and attach to inside steel vapor tube.
Install a 11/2” x 3/4” x 1/2” tee fitting approximately half
way along this hose between outside and inside steel vapor
tubes.
See Illustration below.
Locate the 3/4” EVA hose supplied with the kit. Connect
one end to the 1/2” x 3/4” x 1/2” tee fittings and route along
the tool bar frame to the vapor outlet connections on the
Liquifier.
See Illustration below.
Allow enough extra
hose to avoid kinking at hinge points. Secure all hoses with
properly sized hose clamps. Secure the hoses to the tool bar
frame with cable ties.
INSTALLATION NOTE: It is recommended to use an NH3
compatible thread sealing compound on all pipe thread
fittings.
