DANGER! Be careful to avoid electrical lines when folding/unfolding boom. Outer sections fold/unfold vertically.
±
WARNING! The rear transport lock must be in storage position before folding/unfolding the boom. Failure to do so
will cause damage to the boom.
±
WARNING! Ensure that the boom is clear from the transport brackets before unfolding.
±
WARNING! Never transport sprayer with boom in 60' working width. The front end of the folded boom will be taller
and further forward. Always check for safe clearance from tractor, overhead wires, etc.
±
WARNING! The folding functions (switches 3 & 4) must only be operated when the sprayer is stationary! Failure to do
so will damage the boom.
ATTENTION! There are stop switches located in the hydraulic lines to prevent accidental damage to the boom by
folding/unfolding the outer boom while in transport position. Switch (4) for the outer wings (vertical fold) will only
function when the inner wings (horizontal fold) are completely unfolded in the operating position.

Note: Individual boom wing fold is not possible using the Presidio HZ Hydraulic system.
