The Extender boom should be unfolded into the field po -
sition. The Extender boom is equipped with over-center
breakaways that are cushioned with poly springs. Rotate
the Extender boom wings to the field position. As the wing is
rotated, the poly springs will compress causing resistance.
This is normal and expected.
Flip the control valves on, engage the pump and allow water
to flow through the boom. Disengage the pump when the
boom is flushed.
Install the nozzles and tip screens on the nozzle bodies.
Push the tip in the cap, place the gasket on top of the tip,
add the tip strainer. Turn the cap clockwise ¼ turn to lock
the cap onto the nozzle body.
The Extender boom is divided into three sections (center
nozzles and each Boom Buster nozzle). The LCS sprayer
will usually be equipped with a handgun as well. The Hypro
manual control has three valves that controls the Extender
boom. An attached ball valve controls the handgun.
