Precautions / Pre-Operation Checklist

D.    Cold weather operation:  When the temperature falls

below 32°F run the compressor in a warm environment
before placing the MLVH-10A assembly in the area to
be treated.   The bearing grease may harden in very cold
temperatures causing the compressor  to not preform
properly.  Unless absolutely necessary, do not operate
the MLVH-10A in sub 25°F weather.

E.     

You will get an accurate output volume if

the nozzle cap is closed completely and

then returned to match the red check

marks.  See diagram below.

NOTE:

       Output volume will vary 2.5 - 3.0 cc/min. for  each

notch in the nozzle cap.

       •Clockwise:  Output INCREASES
       •Counterclockwise:  Output DECREASES

NOTE:

       Check the O-ring located inside the nozzle cap for wear

or damage.  Replace if necessary

A.    For the most effective performance, the treatment area

must be air tight.  Take time to repair any broken glass,
torn poly and gaps or openings in vents and door
frames.

B.    The entire treatment area should be vacant.  No

humans or pets should be present.

C.    It is recommended that the application process take

place at the end of the day.  Secure the treatment area
and post hazard signs 

before

spraying.

D.    Avoid spraying when the temperature is over 85°F in

the treatment area or when relative humidity exceeds
85%.

E.     When utilizing horizontal airflow fans (HAF), run them

for 1/2 hour longer than actual spraying time.

F.     Follow all EPA Guidelines regarding the application of

chemicals.

A.  Test run the MLVH-10A with clear water for 1-2

minutes.  Observe the spray quality.

B.  The discharge volume rate of clean water is

approximately 45 cc / minute.  When testing the
unit, pull the suction hose out of the solution tank
and place it in a graduated cylinder  (fill it with 90
cc of clean water).  The cylinder should be empty
after a 2 minute test run.  Be sure to check the
discharge  volume rate regularly to assure best
results.

C.  Observe the operating pressure.  The gauge will

read 14-23 PSI.  NOTE:  Check for leaks in the
piping when the pressure is too low.  Eliminate
clogs if the pressure is too high.  Pressure readings
may vary from location to location.  Small
differences are inconsequential.

Treatment Area

WARNING:

The standard model Autofog uses a

nozzle that is manufactured with brass components.

The use of oxidizers will damage this nozzle 

within several applications.

If you plan to use oxidizers in your Autofog,

CONTACT DRAMM BEFORE THE FIRST USE OF YOUR

MACHINE

to purchase a stainless steel nozzle at a

reduced cost. After your machine has been used,

Dramm cannot accept the original nozzle 

back for credit.
