ATTENTION! The rinsing nozzles cannot always guarantee a 100% cleaning of the tank. Always clean manually with
a brush afterwards, especially if crops sensitive to the chemical just sprayed are going to be sprayed afterwards!
ATTENTION! It is advisable to increase the forward speed (double if possible) and reduce the pressure to 1.5 bar (20
psi) when spraying diluted remaining liquid in the field just sprayed.
ATTENTION! If a cleaning procedure is given on the chemical label, follow it closely.
ATTENTION! If the sprayer is cleaned with a high pressure cleaner lubrication of the entire machine is recommen-
ded.
Technical residue
Inevitably a quantity of spray liquid will remain in the system. It cannot be sprayed properly on the crop, as the pump
takes in air when the tank is about to be empty.
This Technical Residue is defined as the remaining liquid quantity in the system as the first clear pressure drop on the
pressure gauge is read.
The residues in the tank should be diluted immediately in the relationship 1:10 with water and afterwards be sprayed to
the crop just sprayed with increased driving speed. In addition the rinsing tank is to be used, with this can also pump, lin-
kage and armature separately be rinsed. It is to be made certain however that the liquid in the lines in unchanged con-
centration is sprayed out, so there should be an untreated patch available.
Using the drain valve
The drain valve is located and operated from the platform just besi-
de the main tank lid. Pull the string to open the drain valve. The
valve is spring-loaded, but can be kept open by pulling the string
upwards in the V-shaped slit. To release, pull the string downward
and the valve will close automatically.
If draining residues, e.g. liquid fertilizer into a reservoir, a snap-coup-
ler with hose can rapidly be connected to the drain valve and the
liquid safely drained.
