2.
Ensure that the tank drain valve is closed.
3.
Determine the amount of water needed to mix
the amount of chemical you need as prescribed
by the chemical manufacturer.
4.
Open the tank cover on the spray tank.
Note:
The tank cover is located in the center of
the top of the tank. To open it, turn the front half
of the cover counterclockwise and swing it open.
You can remove the strainer inside for cleaning.
To seal the tank, close the cover and rotate the
front half clockwise.
5.
Add 3/4 of the required water to the spray tank
using the anti-siphon fill receptacle.
Important:
Always use fresh clean water in
the spray tank. Do not pour concentrate into
an empty tank.
6.
Start the engine and set the pump switch to the
O
N
position.
7.
Press the accelerator pedal to the floor and set
the throttle lock to the O
N
position.
8.
Set the master section switch to the O
FF
position.
9.
Turn the agitation valve to the O
N
position.
10.
Add the proper amount of chemical concentrate
to the tank as directed by the chemical
manufacturer.
Important:
If you are using a wettable
powder without full agitation, mix the powder
with a small amount of water to form a slurry
before adding it to the tank.
11.
Add the remaining water to the tank.
Operating the Sections
The boom-section lift switches on the sprayer control
panel allows you to move the sections between the
T
RANSPORT
position and the S
PRAY
position without
leaving the operator's seat. It is recommended to
change section positions while the machine is not
moving.
Changing the Section Position
1.
Stop the sprayer on level ground.
2.
Use the boom-section lift switches to lower the
sections.
Note:
Wait until the sections reach the full,
extended S
PRAY
position.
3.
When the sections need to be retracted, stop
the sprayer on level ground.
4.
Use the boom-section lift switches to raise the
sections until they have moved completely into
boom-transport cradle forming the ‘X’ transport
position and the section cylinders are fully
retracted.
Important:
To prevent damage to the
section actuator cylinder, make sure that the
actuators are fully retracted before transport.
Using the Boom-Transport Cradle
The sprayer is equipped with a boom-transport cradle
that has a unique safety feature. In the event of
accidental section contact with a low overhead object
while in the T
RANSPORT
position, you can push the
section(s) out of the transport cradles. If this occurs,
the sections will come to rest in a near horizontal
position to the rear of the vehicle. While the sections
will not be damaged due to this movement, they
should be immediately put back into the transport
cradle.
Important:
You can damage the sections if you
transport them in any position other than the
‘X’ transport position using the boom-transport
cradle.
To put the sections back into the transport cradle,
lower the sections(s) to the S
PRAY
position, and then
raise the section(s) back into the T
RANSPORT
position.
Make sure that the section cylinders are fully retracted
to prevent actuator rod damage.
Spraying
Important:
To ensure that your solution remains
well mixed, use the agitation feature whenever
you have a solution in the tank. For agitation to
work, you must have the pump on and the engine
running above an idle. If you stop the vehicle and
need agitation, set the parking brake, turn the
pump on, press the accelerator pedal to floor, and
switch the throttle lock to the O
N
position.
Note:
This procedure assumes that the pump is on
from the
Operating the Sprayer (page 28)
procedure.
1.
Lower the sections into position.
2.
With the master-section switch in the O
FF
position, set the 3 section switches to the O
N
position.
3.
Drive to the location where you will be spraying.
4.
Set the master-section switch to the O
N
position
to begin spraying.
Note:
The InfoCenter shows the sections with
the spray on.
Note:
When the tank is nearly empty, the
agitation may cause foaming in the tank.
To prevent this, turn the agitation valve off.
