Greasing & Service
Procedures
1 Clean suction line fi lter with each
tank load.
2 Clean pressure line fi lter.
3 Check nozzle fi lters.
4 Check tyre pressure (350kPa), and
check wheel nuts.
5 Check fl ush tank straps and tighten if
necessary.
6 Clean Rapid-check fl owmeter (refer
to page 4.3).
10 Check pump air chamber pressure
on a regular basis. As a general
guideline it should be 10%-20% of
operating pressure (70-100 kPa [10-
15 psi]). Refer to page 54 for more
information.
11 To ensure trouble free spraying,
fl ush the sprayer with fresh water
thoroughly each day, and before

adjuster points and other grease
points (refer diagram on page 5.3).
13 Grease the Pinto jack.
7 Grease tractor to sprayer PTO
universal joints every 8 hours.
Grease lightly until grease becomes
fi rm in seals. Over greasing will break
seals and allow dust and moisture to
penetrate - increasing wear.
8 Grease PTO inner tubes every 8
hours.
To lubricate the inner tube, slide PTO
shaft apart, clean the telescopic
tubes, grease and reassemble.
9 Grease the PTO covers every 20
hours.
Every 200 Hours
1 Lubricate quick release lock pins on
PTO shaft.
2 Re-pack wheel bearings with grease.
3 Inspect the bushes & pins on the
tandem axle (if fi tted).
4 Change air fi lter for foam marker.
5 Fully fl ush foam marker.
6 Grease all tank lid seals with vaseline.

greased every 8 hours (working around the clock
equals 3 times/day), especially when doing a lot
of tight turning
