Side Spray Bars -
The Side Spray Bars are attached to
the outboard ends of the Center spray bar with a swivel
attachment. The side spray bars can be turned off by closing
the 1/4 turn ball valves that are in-line upstream of the side
spray bars.
To activate the side spray bars, turn on the Power switch
and the Spray bar switch. Also ensure that the ball valve
leading to the side spray bar is open.
Solution Gage Hose -
The amount of fluid in the tank is
visible via the clear hose at the back left of the machine. As
you spray, keep an eye on the liquid level, refill as needed.
The vinyl tube can be used to drain the tank by pulling down
on the hose from the top.
Spray Wand Attachment -
The Spray Wand attachment is
connected via a quick connect fitting. To remove the spray
wand simply disconnect the quick connect fitting. To spray
solution with the wand, point the tube end in the direction
you want to spray and squeeze the wand handle. As long as
the Power Switch is in the “ON” position, solution will flow to
the tip.
Preparing the Machine
Installing the Spray Wand:
If not already attached, connect the wand extension tube
and tip as follows:
1.
Remove the spray wand from the small cardboard
shipping box.
2.
Connect the wand assembly to the wand handle as
shown:
3.
Connect the spray nozzle to the wand assembly.
4. Plug the quick connect on the end of the hose into the
mating quick connect in the basket area.
5.
Fill the solution tank with the appropriate amount
of water and mix any solution per the solution
manufacturer’s instructions.
Machine Operation
The machine is designed to enable a plurality of spraying
options. The various options include:
1. Spray wand only,
2. Center Spray Bar only,
3. Center Spray bar and either or both side spray bars.
4. Spray wand at the same time as any combination of
spray bars.
To use the Spray wand:
1.
Plug the spray wand quick connect into the mating
quick connect adapter in the center basket area of the
machine.
2. Ensure the two halves of the spray wand are securely
connected. Hand tightening is recommended for
plastic nut connections.
3. Inspect the spray wand end to ensure the spray tip
is installed and oriented in the direction you want to
spray.
4. Turn the Power Switch to the “ON” position. Ensure the
Battery Meter shows One bar and that there is ample
battery charge.
5.
Point the wand tube end in the direction you want to
spray and squeeze the wand handle.
6. Increase / Decrease the pump pressure by dialing
up or down the Pump Pressure Control knob. Select
a pressure where the pump runs constantly, and is
not repeatedly activating the shutoff switch. This will
ensure constant pressure and even flow of solution.
To use the Center spray bar only:
1.
Turn the ball valves leading to the side spray bars to
the “OFF” position.
2. Turn the Power Switch to the “ON” position. Ensure the
Battery Meter shows One bar and that there is ample
battery charge.
3. Turn the Spray Bar Switch to the “ON” position. Any air
in the spray bar will purge out and the spray tips will
begin to spray the solution.
4. Ensure there is a uniform, consistent pattern coming
from the spray tips. If one or more of the tips is not
spraying a uniform, consistent fan shape, turn off the
Spray Bar switch and clean the tip. (Refer to the “Tip
Cleaning” section below.)
5.
Once the tips are spraying properly, begin to move the
machine forward to start spraying solution onto the
surface.
6.
When complete, turn the Spray bar switch to the “OFF”
position and confirm the spraying has stopped.
NOTE: There will be some leakage from the spray tips as
the fluid in the spray bars drips out. Either collect the drips
with cups or other containers, or allow it to drip onto a
surface that will not be affected.
