Filling Liquid Chemicals U sin g the TurboFiller
μ
ATTENTION! We advice to use the TurboFiller, when you fill chemicals on the sprayer.
1. Fill the main tank at least 1 /3 with water (unless othe rwise stated
on the chemical container label).
2. Turn the handle of the suction valve towards "suction from Main
tank". Turn pressure SmartValve
draining/TurboFiller " an unused function closed
agitation valve to 50 % approx.
μ
ATTENTION! If filling water from an external tank, this can be continued while doing the next steps.
€
DANGER! Before tur ning Pressure SmartValve to "Pressure draining/Tur boFiller " it is very impor tant 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, lubr icate the rubber seal and the gr ip hooks.
3. Engage the pump and set PTO speed at max. 540 r.p.m.
4. Open Tur boFiller lid. Measure the corre ct quantity of chemical and fill it into the hopper.
€
DANGER! Always wear face shield and other appropriate personal safety equipment, when filling chemicals.
μ
ATTENTION! The scale in the hopper can only be used, if the sprayer is parked on level ground! It is recommended to
use a measuring jug for best accuracy.
5. Engage the hopper transfer device by opening the TurboFiller suction valve to transfer chemicals to the main tank.
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 empty the transfer hoses completely into the main tank.
€
DANGER! If the TurboFiller and the transfer hoses are not comple tely emptied, there is a r isk of che micals being
sucked out of the main tank!
6. If the chemical container is empty, it can be rinsed by the Che mical Container Cleaning device. Place the container
over the multi-hole nozzle and push the container for cle aning.
€
DANGER! In order to avoid spray liquid hitting the operator, do not press the lever, unless the multi- hole nozzle is
covered by a container, as spray liquid may otherwise hit the operator!
μ
ATTENTION! The rinsing device uses spray liquid to r inse container s for concentrated chemicals. Before disposal,
always rinse the chemical containers with cle an water several time s, until they are clean.
7. Flush the TurboFiller with clean wate r from the r insing tank or from an e xter nal tank by shifting to suction. The
TurboFiller suction valve must be ope n for at least 20 seconds after the rinse water is no longer visible in the hopper,
in order to empty the transfer hoses completely into the main tank.
μ
ATTENTION! If not flushed with clean water, the hopper rinsing device uses spray liquid for r insing the hopper!
Cleaning the TurboFiller must always be done, when the spray job is e nded, and together with cleaning the e ntire
sprayer. A cleaning after the last filling, and before spraying, does not ensure a cle an TurboFiller!
8. Close the TurboFiller suction valve, when the hopper has been rinsed. Close the lid.
