Filling Powder Chemicals By Using Hardi Chemfiller (Optional) - Hardi NK SB Series Instruction Book

5 - Operation

Filling Powder Chemicals by using HARDI ChemFiller (optional)

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 valve to closed position. Turn the
AgitationValve towards "Agitation" if required. Close remaining
valves.
μ
ATTENTION! For increased suction from the ChemFiller the
AgitationValve can be kept closed.
μ
ATTENTION! If filling water from an external tank, this can be
continued while doing the next steps.
3. Engage the pump and set PTO speed at 540 rpm.
4. Open ChemFiller lid. Open the flushing device valve (B) and
ChemFiller suction valve (A).
5. Measure the correct amount of powdered chemical and sprinkle it
into the hopper as fast as the transfer device can flush it down. The
ChemFiller suction valve (A) 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 ChemFiller and the transfer hoses are not
completely emptied, there is a risk of chemicals being sucked 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 lever (C) to the left of the ChemFiller.
€
DANGER! In order to avoid spray liquid hitting the operator, do not press lever (C) unless the multi-hole nozzle is
covered by a container, as spray liquid may otherwise hit the operator!
μ
ATTENTION! The 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 ChemFiller with clean water from the rinsing tank by shifting to suction from Rinsing Tank. The ChemFiller
suction valve (A) 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.
μ
ATTENTION! If not flushed with clean water, the hopper rinsing device uses spray liquid for rinsing the hopper!
Cleaning the ChemFiller must always be done, when the spray job is ended, and together with cleaning the entire
sprayer. A cleaning after the last filling, and before spraying, does not ensure a clean ChemFiller!
8. Close ChemFiller suction valve (A), when the hopper has been rinsed. Close the lid.
