General Maintenance - Croplands WEED-IT Quadro User Manual

5. General maintenance

Make sure you follow the cleaning instructions after each use of the WEED-IT. See "Cleaning,
Storage and Transport" on page 35 for more information.
Service, repair and clean the machine only with the engine turned off!
Always remove the key from the ignition.
Check all bolts and nuts regularly and tighten them if necessary.
When welding on the vehicle or close to it, always remove the cables
from the alternator and the battery! Also, disconnect all cables from
the WEED-IT sensors.
When replacing any defective parts, make sure that the replacement
parts conform to the specifications of the manufacturer of the WEED-IT
system. Original WEED-IT spare parts always conform to these
specifications and are available from your supplier. Using non-
approved replacement parts voids warranty.
Safety - electrical installation
Only use approved fuses. Fuses that are too large may cause a system
overload and increases the possibility of a fire!
When servicing the electrical installation, always remove the (-)
terminal of the battery.
Always connect the battery in the proper order: first connect the (+)
terminal, followed by the (-) terminal. When disconnecting, do the
same in reverse order.
The (+) terminal should have a protective cover to avoid the possibility
of a short-circuit (explosion)!
Avoid sparks and open fire close to the battery.
Make sure that no cables are trapped when working on the machine.
Damage to the cables may cause a short-circuit and increases the
chance of a fire.
The charging capacity for the battery should be more than 100A. (If
necessary, put the vehicle in a lower gear, so that the engine makes
more revolutions per minute, to ensure that the alternator generates
more power.)
When using an extra battery on the spraying rig, place the voltage
regulating line on the battery of the rig, to ensure that the voltage drop
between the vehicle and the rig is compensated by the voltage
regulator on the alternator.
When in doubt, contact your supplier.
