Completing Irrigation

Step 1
Once the sprinkler cart has returned to the traveller, turn off the water supply.
Depressurize the supply line. You can view the remaining pressure in the system by
looking at the pressure gauge on the control panel or the pressure gauge on the
sprinkler cart. To depressurize the hose on the traveller, press the water shut-off valve
inwards, toward the front of the traveller and the excess water pressure will release out
of the sprinkler head.
Figure 26 – Water Pressure Release
Water under pressure can be very dangerous. Please use proper methods
to bleed the supply line prior to disconnecting from the traveller. Failure to
properly bleed the pressure can result in equipment damage and potential
for injuries to you and/or spectators.
Keep clear of the sprinkler nozzle when bleeding the remaining pressure
from the hose. Failure to stay clear of the sprinkler nozzle when bleeding
off the excess pressure could result in potential injuries to you and/or
spectators.
Step 2
Once all the pressure has been released from the line, disconnect the supply line to
prepare the machine for transport. Leave the machine drive system engaged during
transportation to keep tension on the hose drum.
