PTO controls
Please see tractor unit manual for
details on the PTO system.
NB. Please remember it is
recommended that the PTO be run at as low a speed as possible with
sprayers that are fitted with high capacity pumps. i.e. 350 rpm for
5/6 cyl pumps & 400 rpm for 4cyl pumps. (see tractor manual for
more detail). However please ensure that you have enough liquid flow
for agitation with the pump running at your selected speed.
Spray tank
Tank lid
The tank lid (fig. 2) is a screw on
type and can be opened by turning anti-clockwise.
Filter basket
There is a filter basket inside the
tank lid. If you add chemicals directly into the spray tank always do
so through this filter and make sure that the chemical is washed
through the filter with a hose pipe.
Tank drain (stainless tanks)
The spray tank is fitted with a
remote drain tap mounted on the side of the tractor unit chassis.
Turn the tap anti-clockwise to drain.
Tank drain (fibreglass tanks)
The spray tank is fitted with a
remote tank drain tap on the top of the spray tank. To drain the tank
contents turn the valve anti-clockwise. When closing the valve it is
important not to over tighten it.
The valve plug can be removed by
unscrewing the tap and withdrawing the rod up to the top of the tank.
The plug can then be pulled off the end of the rod for cleaning.
Please remember to take into
consideration any environmental regulations before draining the tank.
Ensure the drain tap is closed
before filling the tank.
Tank sight guage
A sight level
guage is fitted to the front near side of the spray tank. It is
important that the machine should be stood on level ground for it to
read accurately. Even a slight slope can cause significant inaccuracies. |
