Setting up the System
Before operating the GeoLink spray system, perform
this procedure.
1. Read through the following instructions before
starting.
2. Attach the supply hose to the anti-siphon tube
and fill the tank half full of clean water.
Important:
Inspect and clean all system
components before spraying, including the
tank, strainer, pump, valves, and nozzles.
3. Start the engine; refer to the Operator’s Manual
for the Multi-Pro ® 5800 Turf Sprayer.
4. Move the throttle lever to the maximum setting.
5. Turn the console switches to the
OFF
position.
6. Ensure that you have entered the proper
calibration values.
7. Use the self-test feature as described in the
Operator’s Manual for the Multi-Pro 5800 Turf
Sprayer for testing the spray system while the
vehicle is not moving.
Note:
The self-test feature simulates speed so
that you may test the system without moving.
This feature clears itself when the speed sensor
detects that the vehicle is in motion.
To set the self-test feature, do the following:
A. Open the ASC (Auto-section controller)
icon.
B. Turn the ASC to the
OFF
position.
C. Open the sprayer-controller icon.
D. Expand the menu so that it becomes the
main screen.
E. Enter desired simulated speed using the
manual-speed icon.
F. Enter the desired application rate by using
the pre-sets, increase or decrease icons, or
by selecting the current-target application
rate icon.
8. Turn the boom switches and the master-switch
icon to the
ON
position.
Note:
If the switch lights don’t turn on, the
Master Boom Control (foot) switch is off. Turn
the foot switch to the
ON
position.
Note:
To adjust pressure, you need to set the
auto-rate control to manual.
9. Use the pressure-adjust switch to increase the
pressure to 138 kPa (20 psi), then decrease it
back to 0 kPa (0 psi).
10. Change rate control to Auto.
Note:
The pump should increase the pressure
until it reaches the desired rate with the proper
nozzle size.
11. Turn the master-boom control (foot) switch to
the
OFF
position.
Note:
Manual control mode (pressure
control) overrides agitation; therefore, the
pre-set agitation is not functional when it is in
MANUAL
-
CONTROL
mode.
Note:
In
AUTO
-
CONTROL
mode, once the master
boom is off, the pump will control to the preset
agitation setting.
12. Turn the agitation switch to the
ON
position.
Note:
The system starts the pump and
increases the pump speed until the pump
reaches the preset agitation pressure. The
system goes to this pressure when the booms
are off and the pump and agitation are on.
Note:
For the initial system setting, note the
pressure on the pressure gauge. Turn the
agitation bypass valve to the same pressure as
it was before. If you want to reduce the agitation
or increase the supply to the boom for large
application rates, you can also partially close the
agitation ball valve.
13. Turn the agitation switch and the pump switch to
the
OFF
position.
Initially Testing the System
Before operating the GeoLink spray system, perform
this procedure.
Note:
Use just water to do this procedure.
1. Drive the vehicle at the desired spraying speed
with the sprayer booms off.
2. The vehicle speed is displayed on the dashboard
of the monitor.
3. Turn the master switch to the
ON
position.
4. Turn the foot switch to the
ON
position.
Note:
Use the foot switch when all the booms
are to be turned on.
5. Ensure that the Boom 1, Boom 2, and Boom 3
switches are in the On position.
6. Set the rate control to Auto.
Note:
Ensure either the ASC is off or the
boundary limit set to unlimited.
7. Select target application rate.
8. Increase or decrease the vehicle speed by 2
km/h (1 mph).
