DilutionKit
See "DilutionKit (optional)" on page 61 for explanation of tank and boom dilution.
Tank Dilution
When the main tank is empty then dilute residual spray liquid before returning to the farm for refilling.
Please refer to the SmartCom UT instruction book for detailed information about the use of Tank Dilution.
Boom Dilution
When a spray job is interrupted, then chemical residues in the boom piping must be diluted, before returning to the farm.
÷
NOTE! Diluting the boom is necessary to prevent deposits of spray liquid settling in the boom, which could then block
the nozzles.
Please refer to the SmartCom UT instruction book for detailed information about the use of Boom Dilution.
Parking the Sprayer
To avoid spot contamination, the sprayer should always be parked at either the washing/filling location or under roof.
This prevents rainfall from washing down chemical 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 and unauthorized persons.
• Always follow local regulations when parking your sprayer.
TurboFiller Rinsing
÷
NOTE! It is important to suck from the RinseTank or an external tank with clean water.
Rinse the TurboFiller and chemical containers as follows:
Cleaning Empty Containers - TurboFiller Lid is Open
1. Put container over the rotating flushing nozzle in the middle of the
TurboFiller, so that the nozzle is inside the container.
2. Simultaneously press the chemical container cleaning lever and
the TurboFiller suction valve. This rinses the chemical container
with the flushing nozzle, while the rinsing liquid is emptied out of
the TurboFiller.
TurboFiller Rinsing - TurboFiller Lid is Closed
1. Close TurboFiller lid.
2. Turn the suction SmartValve towards "Rinsing tank" or "External Filling Device", if clean water is available here.
3. Open the Turbo Deflector Valve
4. Simultaneously press the Chemical Container Cleaning lever and the TurboFiller suction valve. This rinses the hopper
with the flushing nozzle, while the rinsing liquid is emptied out of the TurboFiller.
5. Rinse the hopper for 30-40 seconds.
6. Open the lid to inspect if the TurboFiller is empty. If not, close the lid again and press the TurboFiller suction valve, until
the TurboFiller is empty.
7. After the last flushing, the TurboFiller suction valve must be open for at least 20 seconds, after the rinse water is no
longer visible in the hopper, in order to completely empty the transfer hoses into the main tank.
μ
ATTENTION! The TurboFiller needs to be cleaned thoroughly after finishing spraying. This is to ensure that it is clean,
before spraying other crops that may be sensitive to the chemicals just used. See the section "Cleaning" on page 121
for details.

for 1 minute to get plenty of clean water through the hoses.
