Filling Powder Chemicals Using The Turbofiller - Hardi NAVIGATOR Classic EAGLE 3000 Instruction Book

11. Turn the agitation valve towards "Agitation".
μ
ATTENTION! If foaming is a problem, reduce the agitation.
12. When the spray liquid is well agitated, turn the handle for pressure
SmartValve towards "spraying" position. Continue agitation during
spraying of the crop.

Filling Powder Chemicals Using the TurboFiller

1. Fill the MainTank at least 1/2 with water (unless otherwise stated
on the chemical container label). See section "Filling of water".
2. Turn the handle of the suction SmartValve towards "MainTank".
3. Turn the pressure SmartValve towards "Pressure
draining/TurboFiller".
4. Turn the agitation valve towards "agitation" as required:
• A fully open agitation valve will result in very little suction
from the TurboFiller.
• A fully closed agitation valve will result in no agitation, while
the powder is being transferred into the tank, resulting in
poor mixing.
μ
ATTENTION! For increased suction from the TurboFiller the agitation valve can be kept closed.
μ
ATTENTION! If filling water from an external tank, this can be continued while doing the next steps.
€
DANGER! It is very important to ensure that the quick coupler lid is correctly and completely fitted to the filling stud
in its locked position, before turning pressure SmartValve to "Pressure draining/TurboFiller". Failure to do so may cause
risk of contamination and injury from the quick coupler lid being "shot" off when pressurized! If not possible to fit the
lid completely, lubricate the rubber seal and the grip hooks.
5. Engage the pump and set PTO speed at max. 540 RPM or 1000 RPM (depending on pump model).
6. Open the TurboFiller lid. Open the TurboDeflector valve and the
TurboFiller suction valve.
7. Measure the correct amount of powdered chemical and sprinkle it
into the hopper as fast as the transfer device can flush it down. The
TurboFiller suction valve must be open for at least 20 seconds after
the chemical is no longer visible in the hopper in order to
completely empty the transfer hoses into the MainTank.
€
DANGER! If the TurboFiller and the transfer hoses are not
completely emptied, there is a risk of chemicals flowing back into the hopper!
€
DANGER! Always wear face shield and other appropriate personal safety equipment, when filling chemicals.
