The following steps are given as a guide to mixing and filling your FieldLink sprayer.
1.
Read the product and follow the instructions carefully, taking special note with regard
to the order in which the products are added to the tank.
NOTE:
Mixing sites must be well away from watercourses and other environmental sensitive
areas. Children and animals must be kept away.
2.
Measure out the correct quantity of pesticides using clean measuring jugs used only for
this purpose.
3.
Half fill the sprayer with clean water.

Commence agitation of FieldLink with following steps:
•
Pressure control lever must be in the ‘by-pass’ position. Turn regulator valve knob
in an anti-clockwise direction to reduce pressure to ‘O’ bar.

Engage PTO shaft to commence pumping and fluid circulation. Now add the
pesticides as measured correctly before to the spray tank while still agitating.
•
Rinse out the measuring jug and pour all rinsing’s into the spray tank. Safely
dispose of empty containers in compliance with current regulations.
•
Top up the tank with water to the required level; ensure that the tank is not over-
filled and the outside is clean and dry before handling.
•
Your Fieldlink has now been correctly filled and the product thoroughly mixed.
Spraying can now commence.

To commence spraying, move the pressure control lever clockwise to the ‘press’
position, close the spray gun or boom and turn the adjustment knob in an anti-
clockwise direction until your desired pressure has been reached. Open the spray gun
