OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE MANUAL
FOR FINN T170 HYDROSEEDERS
®
This manual provides instructions for the operation and maintenance of the FINN T170
HydroSeeder
®
. For best results and to ensure longer life of the equipment, please follow these
instructions carefully. For your safety, read the entire manual before operating this unit.
DEFINITION OF HYDROSEEDING
Hydroseeding is the process whereby seed, fertilizer and/or lime, and wood fiber mulch (using
water as a carrying medium) are applied on the soil to establish vegetation.
THE FINN HYDROSEEDER
®
AND HOW IT WORKS
The FINN HydroSeeder
®
will apply seed, fertilizer and/or lime, wood fiber mulch, or stabilizing
materials in any prescribed or desired combination. The materials placed in the HydroSeeder
®
slurry tank are mixed with water and kept in suspension by a dual agitation process, recirculation
of slurry and mechanical agitation, thus forming a slurry that is pumped to the discharge
assembly and directed onto the seed bed by the operator. This equipment is designed to
accomplish hydroseeding in one easy operation with maximum efficiency.
MOUNTING THE HYDROSEEDER
®
For speed and mobility of operation, the HydroSeeder
®
should be mounted on a truck or trailer.
However, it is important to select a carrier with sufficient capacity to handle the added weight.
