LIMING PROCEDURE (CONTINUED)
3. Start filling unit with water. When water reaches to top of the agitator shaft, move agitator
control to approximately 1/2 speed REVERSE.
4. Open both the recirculation and discharge valves.
5. Remove discharge nozzle and gasket from discharge boom.
6. Aim discharge boom assembly into an open area away from any persons, obstructions, or
high voltage power lines.
7. With the engine at low idle, engage (turn on) the slurry pump clutch, and increase the
engine speed to full throttle. A stream of water should be coming from the end of the
recirculation pipe beside the hatch opening, as well as from the boom.
Do NOT engage the slurry pump clutch above 1000 RPMs or damage
to the slurry pump clutch will occur.
8. As soon as both streams are clear, close the discharge valve and make sure water is
being recirculated back to the tank.
9. Decrease throttle to 3/4 speed. Increase agitator speed to full REVERSE.
Do not disengage (turn off) the slurry pump clutch.
10. Twenty (20) lbs (9 kg) of granular solids displaces approximately 1 gallon (3.8 L) of water.
When filling the tank with water, the volume of granular solids must be accounted.
Use this method to determine how many gallons will be displaced by the granular solids.
X (number of lbs of granular solids being used) = number of gallons displaced
20
For example:
If using the maximum recommended capacity of 3,200 lbs (1,451.5 kg) granular solids,
then 3,200 divided by 20 equals 160, so 160 gallons (606 L) would have to be subtracted
from the total tank capacity. If the total tank capacity is 1180 gallons (4,467 L), then
1180 gallons (4,467 L) minus 160 gallons (606 L) equals 1020 gallons (3,861 L).
The tank can only be filled with 1020 gallons (3,861 L) when using 3,200 lbs (1,451.5 kg)
of granular solids.
11. Fill the tank to the required capacity for the rate of granular solids to be applied.
12. Load the material. See LOADING SECTION, Steps 5 through 8.
13. When ready to apply slurry, install gasket and nozzle into boom.
14. Move agitator control to 3/4 speed FORWARD.
15. With the slurry pump clutch still engaged (turned on), open the discharge valve.
To decrease pump wear and increase discharge distance, it may, at
this point be desirable to close the recirculation valve. However, the
recirculation valve must be open BEFORE closing the discharge valve if the application of
slurry is to be interrupted. Failure to comply could result in minor or moderate personal
injury. Failure to comply could also result in product or property damage.
16. Apply the slurry. See APPLICATION OF SLURRY SECTION.
17. If another load is to be applied, start again at step 1. If finished, follow
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE SECTION.
