Reinke Ontrac, Installation And Service Manual

Page: 4 / 207

When towing a System from field to field, avoid
ditches, rough terrain, overhead power lines,
etc. The Ground Wire MUST be re-attached to
the Ground Rod and checked for electrical
integrity each time the System is towed.
Avoid any bodily contact with high pressure
water streams from Sprinklers and End Guns.
Keep away from fields where the System is
chemigating. Make sure the applied chemical
and water does not blow or drift past the area of
intended operation.
A Check Valve must be
installed between the Pivot Center and the
Pump to prevent the mixture of water and
chemical from siphoning back into the
irrigation water source. Comply with all local,
state, and federal regulations.
Do not oversize Fuses. Fuses are sized for a
specific circuit. It is very important to make
sure you have the proper fuse size in place
before initially starting the System and when
replacing Fuses.
Do not operate System when temperatures are
below 40°F (4.5°C). This can cause structural
damage to the System.
In most states it is unlawful to spray water on
state and county roadways. This is a serious
hazard and must not be allowed.
If your System is equipped with any Auto-Stop
or Auto-Reverse Mechanism, make sure they
are working correctly and a Tower Barricade
is properly installed as per this manual.
Reinke disclaims any and all liability
(including any liability created pursuant to
the Irrigation Systems Warranty) with regard
to damage to the Irrigation System, or to
other property, or personal injury or death,
caused by improper installation or
maintenance of Reinke-supplied Tower
Auto-Reverse or Auto-Stop Switches or
Tower Barricades, or by use of customer-
supplied Barricades.
Driveshafts may start without warning. Keep
away from Driveshafts to prevent clothing or
limbs from being entangled, resulting in
severe injury.
Be aware that the system may start
automatically, depending on how your system
is setup, monitored, and controlled.
Driveshafts may start without warning. Keep
away from Driveshafts to prevent clothing or
limbs from being entangled, resulting in
severe injury.
Do not endanger your own life and possibly
the lives of others by being negligent.
