Determining Weight for Sprayer
The following maximum loaded weight capacity is the average
weight loaded with water to the 15 gallon or 25 gallon mark on the
sprayer tank.
Towing capacity will vary with weight of towing machine and opera-
tor.
To maintain stability using the machine in this example, you cannot
safely tow more than 600 lbs. without first adding additional ballast
to the towing machine.
INSTALLING ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
1. Select the proper tools to remove the leads to the battery
terminals.
Note:
If you do not have insulated tools, use electrical tape to wrap all exposed
non-working surfaces of the tools. It is important to take steps to reduce
the risk of causing an electrical spark.
2.
Put on gloves and eye protection.
3.
Verify that the read lead is attached to the positive (+) battery
terminal and the black lead is attached to the negative (-) bat-
tery terminal.
CAUTION:
Avoid injury! Before installing
sprayer, make sure the towing vehicle is
parked safely.
