II. PROCEDURES WHEN USING HOSES
Always pump clear water through the hose before pumping mulch. If the inside hose liner is dry, it
may dewater the mulch, causing hose to plug.
A. DISCHARGE THROUGH HOSE OR HOSE REEL WITH REMOTE VALVE
1. Open recirculation valve, close discharge valve, and close remote valve at the end of the
hose.
2. Engage (turn on) clutch. When stream is flowing freely through the recirculation line, open
pump take-off valve.
CAUTION
The high pressure on the hose can exert strong forces, causing the potential for the hose
operator to lose control of hose or footing. The hose will require additional hose holders
when this operation occurs on slopes. Open the pump take-off valve and the remote valve
slowly and only after the hose operator is firmly positioned and has firm control of hose.
Failure to comply could result in minor or moderate personal injury. Failure to comply could
also result in product or property damage.
3. With the engine at 3/4 speed, open remote valve at the end of hose to discharge load.
4. When finished spraying, close remote valve, disengage (turn off) clutch, and stop engine. If
using fiber mulch, retain as much water as possible in the hose by elevating the hose ends
or by coupling the hose ends together.
5. If another load is to be done, see RELOADING PROCEDURE on page 21. If finished for the
day, follow the clean up procedure described in DAILY CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
on page 21, and flush out the hose.
DANGER
The recirculation valve must be open when using a remote valve. Failure to comply will
result in death or serious injury.
III. DISCHARGE THROUGH THE BOOM (PLATFORM OPTION)
1. Move clutch toggle switch to the STAND-BY position and close recirculation valve. When
ready to discharge the slurry, depress the clutch activation button on top of the platform,
which engages (turns on) clutch. The slurry will discharge as long as this button is acti-
vated. To stop slurry, simply remove your foot from the clutch activation button.
2. When tank is empty, or when discontinuing discharge for an extended period of time, disen-
gage (turn off) clutch and idle engine. This will retain moisture in the discharge piping and
help prevent plugging. Move agitator control to the NEUTRAL position.
