Dust Suppression Operation
Spray Bar Operation
The spray bar is mounted across the end of the frame and fed directly from the pump via a manually actuated
control valve. Mounted at each end and centrally are the solenoid-operated Mega spray heads. The spray
bar is operated as follows, refer to Figure 9:
•
Open the manually operated ball valve for the spray bar.
•
Referring to Start the Pump procedures (diesel or petrol engine), start the pump engine. Once warmed
up, adjust the engine speed. Until the Mega spray head(s) are open, the factory set pressure regulator
will divert the pumped water back into the tank.
•
Using the remote control unit (refer to Remote Control Unit Functions), select one, two or all three (if
fitted) Mega spray heads pushbuttons. The pneumatically operated solenoid valve for each spray head
will open, allowing the water to be sprayed. If not moving, commence driving along the required road or
pathway.
•
At completion of the operation, shut down the spray bar operation in the reverse order to starting.

Dribble Bar Operation (if fitted)
The dribble bar is mounted across the end of the frame and fed directly from the pump via a pneumatically
operated solenoid valve. Mounted along the length of the dribble bar are down-jet nozzles. The dribble bar
is connected to the pump via a manually operated ball valve and solenoid-operated valve. The dribble bar is
operated as follows, refer to Figure 10:
•
Referring to Start the Pump procedures (diesel or petrol engine), start the pump engine. Once warmed
up, adjust the engine speed. Until the dribble bar solenoid valve is opened, the factory set pressure
regulator will divert the pumped water back into the tank.
•
Using the remote control unit (refer to Remote Control Unit Functions), select the dribble bar pushbutton.
The pneumatically operated solenoid valve will open, allowing the water to be sprayed out of the dribble
bar. If not moving, commence driving along the required road or pathway.
