Miniflow S & MB
Applicators
DESCRIPTION
The Miniflow S Applicator is designed for use either with a conventional big round baler (using 2 nozzles) or a trailed
forage harvester (using 1 or 2 nozzles). The Miniflow MB Applicator has a single nozzle and has been developed specially
for use with mini haylage balers where the small bale size (less than 50kg) and slow baling speed mean that much lower
flow rates are required. Both applicators have proved to be thoroughly reliable in use and are usually supplied for use
with a 200 litre drum but are also available for use with 25 litre cans (special order).
SUPPLIED
1. Submersible motor/pump unit – 12v DC supply
2. Fully variable electronic Control Box (3 amp fuse)
3. Miniflow S - 2 nozzle bodies and 6 sizes of nozzles
Miniflow MB - 1 nozzle body and 4 sizes of nozzles
4. 10 metres PVC tubing (int. Ø
⅜
inch)
5. 10 metres electric cable - supplied in one length to be cut as required
6. T-piece (Miniflow S only)
FITTING
The applicator operates from the tractor electrical system, which must have a 12v DC supply. It is important to ensure
that maximum output is being produced by the tractor, otherwise pump output will be reduced and damage to the
applicator may result.
1. Fit the pump unit into an upright 200 litre plastic drum placed as required on the harvester or tractor.
2. Fit the nozzles bodies in suitable positions, eg one nozzle in the chute or two across the pickup. Measure the distance
from the pump to the nozzle body and cut the tubing to the required length. If using two nozzle bodies, cut the
tubing and use the T-piece to join them together and to the pump.
3. Fit the control box in an easily accessible place in the tractor cab.
4. Connect the bullet connectors to the pump motor (red to red, black to black).
5. Measure the distance from the applicator to the control box and cut the electric cable to the required length. Attach
the bare ends of the cable to the ‘pump’ end of the control box (red to red +ve, black to black -ve).
6. Connect the remaining length of cable to the ‘battery’ end of the control box (red to red +ve, black to black -ve).
7. Fasten the crocodile clips to the battery (red to positive, black to negative).
WARNING: IT IS ESSENTIAL TO ENSURE THAT THE BATTERY LEADS ARE CONNECTED TO THE END OF THE
CONTROL BOX MARKED 'BATTERY' AS WRONG CONNECTION WILL CAUSE DAMAGE.
