Filling Powder Chemicals By Hardi Turbofiller - Hardi COMMANDER TWIN FORCE Instruction Book

Filling powder chemicals by HARDI TurboFiller

1. Fill the main tank at least 1/2 with water (unless otherwise stated
on the chemical container label). See section "Filling of water".
2. Turn the handle of the suction valve towards "suction from Main
tank". Turn pressure SmartValve towards "Pressure
draining/TurboFiller". Turn the AgitationValve towards "Agitation" if
required. Close remaining valves.
ATTENTION! For increased suction from the TurboFiller the
AgitationValve can be kept closed.
÷
NOTE! If filling water from an external tank, this can be continued while doing the next steps.
€
DANGER! Before turning Pressure SmartValve to "Pressure draining/TurboFiller" it is very important to be sure that the
quick coupler lid is correct and completely mounted to the filling stud into its locked position. Failure to do so may
cause risk of contamination and injury from quick coupler lid being "shot" off when pressurized! If not possible to
mount lid completely, lubricate the rubber seal and the grip hooks.
3. Engage the pump and set P.T.O. speed at 540 r/min or 1000 r/min (depending on pump model).
4. Open TurboFiller lid. Open TurboDeflector valve and TurboFiller suction valve.
5. Measure the correct quantity of chemical and sprinkle it into the hopper as fast as the transfer device can flush it down.
The TurboFiller suction valve must be open for at least 20 seconds after the chemical is no longer visible in the hopper
in order to completely empty the transfer hoses into the main tank.
€
DANGER! If the TurboFiller and the transfer hoses are not completely emptied there are risk of chemicals being
siphoned out of the main tank!
€
DANGER! Always wear face shield and other appropriate personal safety equipment when filling chemicals.
6. If the chemical container is empty, it can be rinsed by the Chemical Container Cleaning device. Place the container
over the multi-hole nozzle and push the upper lever to the left of the TurboFiller.
€
DANGER! In order to avoid spray liquid hitting the operator, do not press lever unless the multi-hole nozzle is covered
by a container as spray liquid may otherwise hit the operator.
ATTENTION! Rinsing device uses spray liquid to rinse containers for concentrated chemicals. Always rinse the
chemical containers with clean water several times until they are clean before disposal.
7. Flush the TurboFiller with clean water from the Rinsing tank. The TurboFiller suction valve must be open for at least 20
seconds after the rinse water is no longer visible in the hopper in order to completely empty the transfer hoses into
the main tank.
ATTENTION! If not flushed with clean water, the hopper rinsing device uses spray liquid for rinsing the hopper!
Cleaning the TurboFiller must always be done when the spray job is ended and together with the entire sprayer - a
cleaning after the last filling and before spraying the last tankful does not ensure a clean TurboFiller!
8. Close TurboFiller suction valve when the hopper has been rinsed and close the lid.
9. If closed, turn the AgitationValve towards "Agitation".
10. When the spray liquid is well agitated, turn handle of the pressure
SmartValve towards "Spraying" position. Keep P.T.O. engaged so
the spray liquid is continuously agitated until it has been sprayed
on the crop.
