maximum reliability to give you many years of service. 

Despite its impressive list of features, the 

hydro

CHEM

 is a breeze to operate. This manual has 

been designed to help you get started, and also contains some handy application tips. If at any 
stage you require assistance, please contact either your local TPS representative or the TPS factory 
in Brisbane. 

The manual is divided into the following sections:
