  • Page 14: Valve Operation

    TWO VALVE OPERATION: ® This HydroSeeder is equipped with two independently operated ball valves to control slurry flow. One is located in the recirculation line below the platform, and the other is located in the discharge line above the platform. The recirculation valve is open when the handle is in line with the valve ports and is closed when the handle is at a right angle to the valve ports.
  • Page 15 1. Discharge Through Boom: Flow is through boom with no flow through closed recirculation valve (Figure 2). Flow through boom is controlled by engaging and disengaging slurry pump clutch. Do not use the discharge valve to control distance. Valve should be either completely open or complete- ly closed.

    LOADING (For wood fiber mulch, if liming see page 19): CAUTION: Take care not to lose pens, lighters, etc. from shirt pockets or drop pieces of paper or plastic bags into the tank, as these might plug the slurry system. 1.
  • Page 20: Prior To Application

    C. Fertilizer - Stand over hatch opening and drop the bag onto the bagcutter. Grasp both ends of the bag and dump material. D. All other additives - Consult with manufacturer for proper loading technique. 7. When all materials are loaded and in suspension, and the tank is full, move the agitator to neutral then full speed forward to insure all material is mixed.

    APPLICATION OF SLURRY: I. General Application Techniques DANGER: Do not spray toward power lines, transformers or other high voltage conductors. CAUTION: The driver of the carrying vehicle should remain alert for hazards to the operator, such as low power lines, hanging branches, etc.
  • Page 22: Application Through Hoses

    A. PUMP TAKE OFF SYSTEM OR HOSE REEL WITH REMOTE VALVE : 1. Open recirculation valve and close discharge valve and close remote valve at the end of the hose. 2. Engage clutch. When stream is flowing freely through the recirculation line, open the pump take off valve.
  • Page 23: Reloading

    RELOADING PROCEDURE: 1. Start at step 2 in loading procedure on page 15. 2. After last load of the day refer to the cleaning and maintenance section of the manual on pages 20-21. ® LIMING WITH THE HydroSeeder ® In using large concentrations of granular solids through the HydroSeeder , it is advisable to keep the slurry moving through the pump at all times.
  • Page 24: Cleaning And Maintenance

    CAUTION: To decrease pump wear and increase discharge distance, it may now be desirable to close the recirculation valve. However, the recirculation valve must be open BEFORE closing the discharge valve if the application of slurry is to be interrupted. Extreme heat, which will cause damage and/or bodily injury, will occur if both valves are closed.
