13.7 Field sprayer maintenance
13.7.1 Adjusting the hydraulic throttle valve
The operating speeds for the individual hydraulic functions are
set at the factory from the valve block using the respective hy-
draulic throttle valves (fold/unfold sprayer boom, lock/unlock the
swing comp
ensation, etc.). However, depending on the type of tractor,
it may be necessary to correct these speed settings.
The operating speed for a hydraulic function associated with a par-
ticular throttle pair can be adjusted by screwing the hexagon socket
head screw on the corresponding throttle in or out.
• Reduce operating speed = screw in hexagon socket head screw.
• Increase operating speed = screw out hexagon socket head
screw.
Always adjust the two throttles in a throttle pair equally when correct-
ing the operating speed of a hydraulic function.
