Agitation before resuming a spray job

If a spray job has been interrupted for a while, severe sedimentation may occur depending on the chemicals being used.
Before resuming the spray job, it might be necessary to agitate sedimented material.
1. Turn the handle at the suction valve towards "Suction from main
tank". Turn the pressure alve towards "Pressure
draining/TurboFiller" and turn the Agitation valve towards
"Agitation". Other valves closed.
2. Engage the pump and set P.T.O. speed at 540 r/min or 1000 r/min
(depending on pump model).
3. Agitation has started and should be continued for at least 10
minutes.
The spray job can now be resumed. Turn pressure SmartValve
towards "Spraying" and start spraying.DANGER! Before turning
Pressure SmartValve to "Pressure draining/TurboFiller" it is very
important to be sure that the quick coupler lid is correct and completely mounted to the filling stud into its locked
position. Failure to do so may cause risk of contamination and injury from quick coupler lid being "shot" off when
pressurized! If not possible to mount lid completely, lubricate the rubber seal and the grip hooks.

Parking the sprayer

To avoid spot contamination the sprayer should always be parked at either the washing/filling place or under roof. This avoid
rainfall to flush down chemcical residues from the sprayer's surfaces.
• Parking at the washing/filling location will retain residues.
• Always park the machine out of reach of children, animals or unauthorised persons.

EcoFill (optional)

The optional EcoFill is an extra valve situated between the EasyClean
filter and the TurboFiller. A Parker coupling is fitted to the EcoFill valve
and a Micro Matic coupling is situated just below the EasyClean filter.
Use the EcoFill valve to select whether chemical transfer is done via the
TurboFiller or by suction directly from the chemical container.
Procedure when filling from a container with EcoFill is:
1. Connect the suction hose to the Parker coupling and the other
end of filling hose to the chemical container with the Micromatic
coupler.
2. Turn pressure SmartValve to "Pressure draining/TurboFiller". Turn
Suction Valve to "Main tank".
3. Turn the EcoFill valve to "suction from external container".
4. Lift the TurboFiller suction valve to open position on the TurboFiller to enable the vacuum.
5. Engage the pump and set P.T.O. speed at 540 rpm or 1000 rpm (depending on pump model).
6. When the chemical container is empty, then the hose can be rinsed by moving the Micro Matic connector from the
chemical container to the Micro Matic coupler on the sprayer.
7. Then turn the suction SmartValve to "suction from rinsing tank".
8. Engage the pump and set P.T.O. speed at 540 rpm or 1000 rpm (depending on pump model) to flush the hose.
DANGER! Before turning Pressure SmartValve to "Pressure draining/TurboFiller" it is very important to be sure that the
quick coupler lid is correct and completely mounted to the filling stud into its locked position. Failure to do so may
cause risk of contamination and injury from quick coupler lid being "shot" off when pressurized! If not possible to
mount lid completely, lubricate the rubber seal and the grip hooks.
