Breaking in a New Sprayer
Service Interval:
After the first 100 hours
•
Check the engine-oil and fluid levels regularly
and be alert for indications of overheating in any
component of the sprayer.
•
After filling the tank, check the tank straps for any
play. Tighten as necessary; refer to
Tank Straps (page 29)
.
•
After starting a cold engine, let it warm up for about
15 seconds before accelerating.
•
Avoid hard-braking situations for the first several
hours of new sprayer break-in operation. New
brake linings may not give optimum performance
until several hours of use has caused the brakes
to become burnished (broken-in).
•
Avoid racing the engine.
•
Refer to
Maintenance (page 45)
for any special,
low-hour checks.
Operating the Sprayer
To operate the Multi Pro
®
Sprayer, first fill the sprayer
tank, apply the chemicals to the job site, and finally
clean the tank and spray system. It is important that
you complete all 3 of these steps in succession to
avoid damaging the sprayer. For example, do not mix
and add chemicals in the sprayer tank at night and
then spray in the morning. This leads to separation of
the chemicals and possible damage to the sprayer
components.
CAUTION
Chemicals are hazardous and can cause
personal injury.
•
Read the directions on the chemical labels
before handling the chemicals and follow
all manufacturer recommendations and
precautions.
•
Keep chemicals away from your skin.
Should contact occur, wash the affected
area thoroughly with soap and clean water.
•
Wear goggles and any other protective
equipment recommended by the chemical
manufacturer.
The Multi Pro
®
Sprayer has been specifically designed
to have high durability in order to provide the long
sprayer life you need. Different materials have been
chosen for specific reasons at different locations on
your sprayer to meet this goal. Unfortunately, there is
no single material which is perfect for all foreseeable
applications.
Some chemicals are more aggressive than others
and each chemical interacts differently with various
materials. Some consistencies (e.g., wettable
powders, charcoal) are more abrasive and lead to
higher wear rates. If a chemical is available in a
formulation that would provide increased life to the
sprayer, use this alternative formulation.
As always, remember to clean your sprayer and spray
system thoroughly after all applications. This ensures
that your sprayer has a long and trouble-free life.
Note:
If you have questions or need additional
information regarding the spray-control system, refer
to the
Operator’s Manual
supplied with the system.
Filling the Fresh-Water
Tank
Always fill the fresh-water tank with clean water before
handling or mixing any chemicals.
The fresh-water tank is located on the ROPS, behind
the passenger seat (
).
Note:
It supplies a source of fresh water for you to
wash chemicals off your skin, eyes, or other surfaces
in the case of accidental exposure.
•
To fill the tank, unscrew the cap on the top of the
tank, fill the tank with fresh water, and tighten the
cap.
•
To open the fresh-water tank spigot, turn the lever
on the spigot.
