  • Page 5: General Information

    General Information About This Manual This manual illustrates the proper installation of the Variable Rate Irrigation Individual Sprinkler (VRI-iS) Option on a Valley irrigation machine that is equipped with a Valley ICON control panel. Specifications, descriptions and illustrative material contained in this manual were based on information avail- able at the time this publication was approved for printing.

  • Page 6: Safety

    Safety Recognize Safety Information This irrigation equipment can be powered by high voltage, which can be extremely dangerous if used improp- erly. For maximum safety and optimum performance of the machine, all owner/operators and maintenance personnel must read and understand the owner/operator manual(s), all safety messages in this manual and safety signs/decals on the machine before operating this equipment.

  • Page 7: Use Of Personal Protective Equipment

    Safety Use of Personal Protective Equipment • People working in areas where there are potential electrical hazards must use, personal protective equipment that is appropriate for the specific parts of the body to be protected and for the work to be performed. Refer to U.S.

  • Page 8: Minimum Working Clearance

    Lighting. Available here: www.faa.gov/regulations_policies/advisory_circulars • For irrigation machines near private or unregulated airfields, including farm-based airstrips, Valley strongly recommends complying with the same standards and requirements as Civil airports as shown in Part 77. • Regulations vary by country, contact your local aviation authority for guidance.

  • Page 9: Overhead Power Lines

    Safety Overhead Power Lines Assembling, towing or transporting irrigation machine components such as but not limited to the pivot point, linear cart, span/drive unit assemblies, overhangs and/or corner assemblies underneath or near power lines is extremely dangerous because of the risk of electrocution. Operating equipment that elevates irrigation machine components, such as but not limited to an aerial lift or crane, near power lines is extremely dangerous because of the risk of electrocution.

  • Page 10: Minimal Lockout / Tagout Procedure

    Safety Minimal Lockout / Tagout Procedure The following procedure establishes the minimum requirements for the lockout of energy isolating devices whenever maintenance or servicing is done on machines or equipment. It is used to ensure that the machine or equipment is stopped, isolated from all potentially hazardous energy sources and locked out before person- nel perform any servicing or maintenance where the unexpectedly energized or start-up of the machine or equipment or release of stored energy could cause injury.
