9 AGITATION 9
The
hydraulic
and the
pneumatic
circuits mounted inside the tank, allow to realize
a double
agitation system
: with the pump water and with the fan air,
at the same time
. The pneumatic circuit
can be excluded, when the products used have a quite strong foaming effect, by closing the pneumatic
agitator cock. When that cock is opened again, check that some air outlet holes aren’t obstructed.
It is advised however to also use always the pneumatic agitator, adding to the
mixture, if necessary, a antifoam product.
This operation is of main importance, in order to get a uniform distribution of the active principle on the
whole vegetative surface to be treated. Should the activity need to be interrupted during a treatment
with the sprayer,
keep the agitator activated until the treatment is resumed.
Before starting the treatment, or return to work after a break, it is essential to
agitate the mixture in the tank, re-circulating it completely for as long as it takes
to make it homogeneous.
The agitation can be carried out with the manual pressure regulator (P5) or electric
(E5), in any position.
The tap of the pneumatic regulator has to be open.
THE MIXTURE AGITATION HAS TO BE CARRIED OUT WITH THE POWER TAKEOFF RUNNING AT
A RATE OF AT LEAST 500 RPM..
10 OPERATING PROCEDURES 10
Before using the atomizer fill the circuit-washer tank (if provided) and the
hand-washer tank with clean water
.
10.1 - PRELIMINARY OPERATIONS TO TREATMENT
• The operator must:
a
. Ascertain that the condition of the crops, the progress of the disease or the need for its prevention
actually justify the treatment to be applied.
b
. Be aware of the meteorological conditions forecast for all the time necessary for carrying out the treatment.
c
. If possible, avoid carrying out the spraying in strong wind conditions or when one detects that
the sprayed mixture disperses away from the target crop (drifting). It is advisable to suspend the
treatment when the wind speed exceeds 3 m/s (10 km/hour). Should it be imperative to operate
anyway, the following suggestions are made:
• reduce the distance of the target from the spraying points, even if detrimental to the quality of
the spraying
• increase the dimension of the droplets, suitably adjusting the machine.
