CALIBRATION
NOTE: Verify your calibration. Use full flow
when calibrating. Meter accuracy is based
on proper calibration for each herbicide and
fluid temperature.
1. Fill pump, meter, hose and system by turn-
ing pump on, holding nozzle open, and fill-
ing a container until a full solid flow occurs.
Close nozzle.
2. Reset main meter dial to 000.0. Turn count-
er reset knob counterclockwise.
3. Fill a carefully measured 5 gallon container
(GPI Calibration Container P/N 116000-1)
up to marked point.
4. Note meter counter reading. If the meter
registers less than the container volume,
remove seal screw (111039-2) and turn the
calibration screw (111014-3) clockwise. If
main counter reading is more than con-
tainer volume, turn calibration screw coun-
terclockwise.
5. Continue calibration steps above until
counter reading is equal to measurement
container volume. Reinstall seal screw.
