6 – Adjustments & Service
This section provides information on daily and
periodical maintenance of your applicator. A
recommended service interval is listed with
each item. Be sure to service all these
components after any lengthy period of non-use
You are responsible for the Safe operation and
maintenance of your applicator. Ensure that you
and anyone else who is going to operate,
maintain or work on or around the applicator be
familiar with the operating and maintenance
procedures and related safety information
contained in this manual.
Safety
1. Refer to the Operator’s Manual for your
tillage equipment. Follow all operating,
maintenance and safety information in the
manual.
2. Place the implement on a firm level surface.
Lower all sections of the implement.
3. Exercise extreme caution when working
around or with high-pressure hydraulic
systems. Depressurize the system when
connecting or disconnecting the hose
couplings.
4. Wear heavy gloves and a face shield for
eye protection when searching for
suspected hydraulic leaks. A high-pressure
concentrated stream of hydraulic fluid can
pierce the skin. If such happens, seek
immediate medical attention, as infection
and toxic reaction could develop.
5. Do not attempt any adjustments or
maintenance to any system of the Valmar
Applicator when the implement is in motion.
6. Make sure all guards and shields are in
place when the applicator is being operated.
7. Never wear ill-fitting, baggy or frayed
clothing when working on any drive system
components.
8. Store and transfer gasoline, solvents,
cleaners or any flammable liquids only in
Safety Standard approved containers.
