12 WINTERIZATION – DRAINING
In areas where frost is likely in winter after the irrigation season, the machine must be drained in time. A
compressor with a minimum air capacity of 500 l/min. at 1 bar overpressure is best suited for this purpose. The
small amount of water remaining in the PE-pipe after the draining will not do any harm.
Turn out the drain plug on the bottom of the TCN 10 turbine. We recommend to turn it in again only when you
start up the machine again at the beginning of the next season. Clean the RAINSTAR A1, A2 and grease all
appropriate points. The machine should preferably be stored in a roofed shelter where it is protected from direct
exposure to the weather.
