Filling of water
Tank should normally be filled 1/3 with water before adding chemicals.
Always follow instructions given on the chemical container!
±
WARNING! If the sprayer is put aside with liquid in the main tank all MANIFOLD valves must be closed.
Filling through tank lid
Water is filled into the tank by removing the tank lid located at front of
sprayer tank which is accessible from platform. It is recommended to use
water as clean as possible f
or spraying purposes. Always fill water
through the strainer basket to prevent foreign particles from entering
the tank. An overhead tank can be used in order to obtain high filling
capacity.
±
WARNING! Do not let the filling hose enter the tank. Keep it outside the tank, pointing towards the filling hole. If the
hose is lowered into the tank and the water pressure drops at the water supply plant, chemi
cals may be siphoned
back and contaminate the water supply lines and source.
Filling of main tank using Quick fill (optional equipment)
The Quick Filling Device is operated as follows:
1. Remove plug from Quick Fill valve and connect filling hose from
water supply.
2. Turn the main tank Qu
ick Fill valve to “Quick Fill from external tank”
label and fill tank to desired level.
3. Keep an eye on the main tank level indicator.
4. Close the main tank Quick Fill valve (vertical position) and remove
the fi
lling hose.
5. Replace the plug to the Quick Fill coupler when filling is complete.
ATTENTION! Observe local legislation regarding use of filling device. In some areas it is prohibited to fill from open
water reservoirs (lakes, rivers etc.). It is recommended only to fill from closed reser
voirs (mobile water tanks etc.) to
avoid contamination.
±
WARNING! Do not leave the sprayer while filling the tank. Keep an eye on the level indicator in order NOT to overfill
the tank.
±
WARNING! If filling hose/filter is carried on the sprayer during spraying, it can be contaminated by spray drift which
will be transferred to water source when filling!
