Operation 

Ensure that the operator is suitably qualified to use a machine of this nature and that they have fully read 
and understood this manual - they should be aware of all safety aspects relating to the safe use of the 
machine. 

 

It is advisable that all ‘first time’ operators practice using the machine in a clear safe area, with clean water

 

only prior to work in order to familiarise themselves with its operation. 

 

AFTER APPROXIMATELY ONE HOUR OF WORK WITH A NEW MACHINE, ALL NUTS, BOLTS AND DRIVE BELTS 
SHOULD BE CHECKED FOR TIGHTNESS AND ADJUSTED AS NECESSARY! 

 

Control Module 

 

 

 

ON/OFF: 

Switches the control box on or off. When switched on, the applicator roller will run continuously.

 

 
APPLICATION RATE:

 The desired spray rate is set using the up/down arrows, with the current output value 

(between 0 & 100) displayed on the 3-digit display. For example, the machine will run for 50% of the time 
when set to 50 on the control box. 

RECOMMENDED START VALUE = 20%

 

 

PUMP RUN:

 Switches the sequenced pump on or off so that chemical is applied to the applicator at the 

application rate set. 
 

PURGE:

 This runs the pump continuously when pressed, ideal for clearing blockages, purging the system of 

air or when flushing through with water after use.
