6.1

Preparing the Spray Mix

 Only prepare sufficient spray mix for the required spray operation.
 Check calibration and operating parameters with those calculated in section 5.
 Read the product label and abide by all safety requirements for PPE when mixing
and filling.
 Mix products in a secure area according to manufacturer's recommendations.
Prevent any spillage or wash down from contaminating waterways or other areas.
 Check for leaks before mixing products into the main spray tank, refer to
section 4.2.
 Make sure rinse tanks and hand wash tanks are filled, with clean water only,
before preparing the spray mix.
Fill the main tank via the filling and inspection cap located on the top of the tank. The
rinse tank and hand-wash tank are filled with water independently through their tank
lids. Detailed instructions on each tank configuration are provided in the Tank
Systems Instructions.
The Micron 100 litre tank system has been used in the following procedure to
demonstrate the general principles to follow when preparing spray mix.
 On tractor mounted tanks lower the three point linkage until the tank filling and
inspection cap can to be easily accessed. On ATV and other tanking systems the
tank should be placed as low to the ground as possible for ease of access.
 Ensure any drain valve at the base of the main tank is in the closed position.
 Ensure that the tank selector valve is turned to 'spray tank' open.
 Unscrew the filling and inspection cap on the spray tank.
