QUICK HOSE REWIND
The purpose of the PTO shaft on the gearbox is to rewind the hose quickly by using the tractor. If for any
reason you need to wind the hose up quickly then follow these steps.
1.
WARNING!
Make sure the handle on the gearbox is in the idle or disengaged position, otherwise
severe damage will occur to the gearbox. Disengage the anti-reverse lever.
2. Connect the tractor PTO drive line to the gearbox shaft on the Micro Rain.
WARNING!
Read
drive-line directions for proper use of the PTO drive-line. Neither Micro Rain nor Micro Rain
dealers are responsible for improper use of the drive line which can result in injury or death.
3. Slowly activate the tractor power take off and the reel will begin to wind up. Roll up hose at the slowest
possible RPM.
IMPORTANT!!
Do not engage PTO with high RPM. This can damage the drive gear.
IMPORTANT!!
When using the PTO shaft, there is no automatic stop at the end of the run.
The PTO must therefore be stopped before the hose is completely wound up to avoid damage to the gun
cart or the end of the hose. It is recommended the final wrap or two to be wound up manually.
IMPORTANT!!
To avoid irregular rewinding of the hose when using a PTO, it may be neces-
sary to wind the hose up under water pressure to avoid excessive ovaling of the hose.
MAINTENANCE
1. Grease all grease fittings every 100 hours of operation.
2. Grease all wheel hubs every 100 hours of operation.
3. Grease the drum gear at least twice per season.
4. Change the gearbox oil every season.
5. Check tire pressure every 4-6 weeks.
WINTERIZING
1. Remove plug or open petcock placed under the turbine ( fig 1 ).
2. Remove drain plug on bottom of gun cart.
3. If the machine is equipped with the blue diaphram valve (machines prior to 2002 model), the black filter
body (fig 2), and blue valve must be drained (fig 3).
4. If the machine has a boost pump, then the pump volute and plumbing must be drained.
5. Machines equipped with the cart shut-off valves (2002 - present machines) must leave valve in the open
position to avoid freeze damage. Note: Open and close valve several times before leaving valve open.
