Conditioning the Spray System
Service Interval: After each use—Condition the spray
system at the end of each daily use.
Conditioner Specification
Conditioner specification: propylene glycol
"non-toxic RV antifreeze" with corrosion inhibitor
Important:
Use only propylene glycol with
corrosion inhibitor.
Do not use recycled propylene glycol. Do not use
ethylene glycol base antifreeze.
Do not use propylene glycol with soluble alcohols
(methanol, ethanol, or isopropanol) or brines
added.
Preparing the Conditioner
1.
Move the machine to a level surface, set the
parking brake, shut off the engine, and remove
the key.
2.
Add conditioner to the tank as follows:
•
For ready to use (premixed) propylene glycol
RV antifreeze—add 10 gallons of propylene
glycol RV antifreeze to the tank.
•
For concentrated propylene glycol RV
antifreeze, perform the following steps:
A.
Add a 10-gallon mixture of propylene
glycol RV antifreeze and water into the
sprayer tank. Prepared the antifreeze
mixture as instructed manufacturer for
a concentration rated for -45°C (-50°F)
minimum.
Important:
when cleaning the sprayer.
B.
Start the engine and set the spray-pump
switch to the O
C.
Press the accelerator pedal to increase
the engine speed.
D.
Set the agitation switch to the O
position.
Allow the conditioner and water solution
to circulate for 3 minutes or longer.
Spraying the Conditioner
Recommended tool: a clear catch container.
1.
Move the machine to the drain pad area and set
the parking brake.
2.
Lower the outer booms sections.
3.
Set the left, center, and right section switches
and the master section switch to the O
Use only clean water
position.

4.
Allow the spray system to spray until the nozzles
discharge the conditioner.
Note:
Most propylene glycol RV antifreeze is
colored pink. Use the catch container to sample
the sprayer discharge at several of the nozzles.
5.
Shut off the master section switch, 3 section
switches, agitation switch, spray-pump switch,
and engine.
Hauling the Machine
Use a trailer or truck when moving the machine long
distances.
•
Use full-width ramps for loading the machine onto
a trailer or truck.
•
Tie outer spray sections to the boom-section
transport cradles.
•
Bind the machine securely to the transport vehicle;
