Perform the following procedure to prepare the implement for installation of the Hawkeye nozzle control system.
1. Rinse and fill the tank with clean water.
2. Move the equipment to an open area suitable for testing application system operation and rinsing the boom
plumbing.
3. Unfold the boom and enable the application control system. Verify that all control hardware (e.g. control valves,
section valves, etc.) and spray tips function as expected.
4. Operate the system until any chemicals are rinsed from the boom supply lines.
5. Disable the application control system and de-pressurize the boom.
6. Replace existing carrier line strainer(s) with an 80 mesh strainer. An 80 mesh or finer strainer is required for use
with the Hawkeye nozzle control system.
7. Remove the existing TeeJet nozzle bodies on the boom tube and set them aside. These will be replaced with
Wilger nozzle bodies later.
8. Ensure no persons or property are near the spray boom.
9. Enable the application control system and run clean water through each boom section for at least 20 seconds
to rinse any remaining debris from the boom plumbing.
