Place the end of the hose through the conduit clamp (attached to the pump) and then slide a second 3/8" hose clamp onto the hose. Leave hose clamps loose for now. See Figure 9. This sprayer should be connected to 12 volt batteries only! PUMP SWITCH RED Push the hose onto the hose adapter in the end of the "On-Off" valve. Tighten the hose clamp around the hose and adapter.

Compare the illustration below with your sprayer to familiarize yourself with the various controls and their locations. BOOM ARM ON-OFF SWITCH ON-OFF VALVE SPRAY GUN ON-OFF SWITCH Turns pump/motor on or off. ON-OFF VALVE Turns the flow on or off from the pump to the boom nozzles. BEFORE STARTING It is Important to test the boom and spray gun with plain water before attempting actual spraying. This will enable you to check the sprayer for leaks and to set the spray pattern and nozzle pressure. If a leak should occur, thread tape may be used to better seal the fitting. PUMP PRESSURE SWITCH The pump is equipped with a pressure switch. The pressure switch senses outlet pressure of the pump and will turn off the electrical power to the pump at a predetermined high pressure point (35 PSI). If the flow demand is very low, the pump may reach this high pressure point and the switch will cause "cycling" (the pump cycles on and off rapidly). This is not a problem unless the pump is subject to continuous cycling within one second intervals for long periods of time. ON-OFF ADJUSTMENT BOOM ARM Swivels up and down and adjusts in and out to obtain proper nozzle positioning. SPRAY GUN Unhooks from tank for spraying shrubs, small trees or areas inaccessible to the towed sprayer. ADJUSTING SPRAY GUN NOZZLE Turn the nozzle on the spray gun to adjust the spray from a cone shaped fine mist to a straight stream. Maximum gun pressure is attained with the ON-OFF valve shut off, SE'i-FING THE BOOM FOR SPRAYING The correct positioning of the boom places the nozzles approximately 40" apart and 14" above the ground. This gives a spray width of approximately 80" with a slight center overlap. See figure 12. a. b. Slide the boom bars out to the ends of the slots. Swivel the boom bars until the nozzles are approximately 14" above the ground. c. Make sure the nozzles are adjusted so that the openings point straight down. OF BOOM NOZZLES The sprayer is equipped with an "On-Off" valve for the boom which allows the flow to the boom nozzles to be shut off. ]11 t AL FIGURE 12 HOWTO USEYOURSPRAYER • Determine the approximate square footage of the area to be sprayed. Use this amount to estimate the number of gallons that will be required, based on product recommendations. This can help avoid unneeded solution left in the tank, Determine the application rate (gallons per 1,000 sq. feet or gallons per acre) based on the chemical manufacturers recommendations. Use the tip chart on page 9 to determine what ground speed will achieve the recommended application rate. To determine the throttle setting for attaining the desired ground speed, mark off 100, 200 and 300 feet intervals. The speed chart at the bottom of page 9 indicates the number of seconds it takes to travel • • • • • • • A'I-rENTION! Do not allow chemicals to sit in pump for extended times of idleness. Some chemicals will damage the pump valve if allowed to soak untreated for a length of time, Always flush the pump with water after each use. See the instructions for cleaning the tank in the maintenance section for flushing and disposal of chemicals. these distances, Set the throttle and, with a running start, travel the distances in the number of seconds indicated by the speed chart. Once you have determined the throttle and gear settings needed, mark the throttle location so that you can easily resume the same speed after stopping. Add the chemical solution to the tank, following the product instructions. • CUSTOMER Drive to the starting place for spraying. Set the boom in position for spraying. Set the throttle at the position determined in the 4th step. Reach back and flip the pump/motor switch to the "ON" position to start spraying. Stay clear of flowers, shrubs and evergreen trees when spraying weed control solutions to prevent contact of the solution with these sensitive plants. GLOVES AND PROTECTIVE CLOTHCAUTION: ING WHEN WEAR HANDLING EYE PROTECTION, AND WORKING WITH LAWN CHEMICALS. RESPONSIBILITIES Read and follow the maintenance MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE Fill in dates as you complete regular service, Check for loose fasteners Clean tank Lubrication schedule and the maintenance procedures listed in this section. fJJJS Service D_tes x X X CHECK FOR LOOSE FASTENERS CLEANING • • Periodically clean the strainer in the end of the intake hose at the bottom of the tank. Remove the nylon swivel nut from the hose, pull out the screen and flush it with clear water. • Periodically clean the strainers in the boom nozzles. Remove the nozzle, pull cut the screen and flush it with clear water. Before each use make a thorough visual check of the snow thrower for any bolts and nuts which may have loosened. Retighten any loose bolts and nuts. CLEANING • • TANK After use, fill the tank part way with water, start the sprayer and allow clear water to be pumped through the plumbing system and out through the boom assembly and the handgun. Use the handgun to thoroughly wash all internal parts of the tank, the outside of the tank and the boom. Refill the tank about half full with plain water and a chemical neutralizer and repeat the cleaning instructions above. Flush the entire sprayer with the neutralizing agent. Follow the chemical manufacturers instructions for disposal of all wash or rinsing water. LUBRICATION • Oil the wheels at least once a season. STRAINERS STORING • Drain all water out of the sprayer, paying special attention to the pump and handgun. These items are especially prone to damage from chemicals and freezing weather. • The sprayer should be winterized before storage by pumping a 50-50 solution of water and R. V. antifreeze through the entire plumbing. Proper care and maintenance will prolong the life of the sprayer.
