  • Page 16: 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 17 2. EXTENSION HOSE OR HOSE REEL THROUGH REMOTE PORT: Flow is through recirculation with no flow through closed discharge valve (Figure 3). Flow through extension hose is controlled by remote valve at end of hose. Open recirculation valve allows flow back into tank.

    LOADING: 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. With clutch disengaged (off) and agitator control in the neutral position, start engine and allow it to warm up (See starting procedure page 12).
  • Page 22: Prior To Application

    C. Fertilizer - Cut the fertilizer bag and dump the contents into the slurry tank. 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.
