Tank Agitation
Refer to Figure 23
There are two tank agitators in the sprayer tank that shoot
jets of liquid out at a high velocity. This keeps the pesti-
cides in suspension. Each agitator has four holes and is
oriented as shown. To ensure that the tank gets proper ag-
itation, make sure the agitators are always kept in the ori-
entation shown.
Storage
1. Empty solution from the tank, clean the chemical in-
ductor (if included), and store or dispose of the chem-
ical as recommended by the manufacturer’s chemical
label.
2. Flush the entire sprayer system with clean water.
3. Clean out Whirlfilters ® . Refer to Operating Whirlfilter ®
in the “Operating Instructions” section on page 18.
4. Circulate 3 - 5 gallons of antifreeze through the sys-
tem including the pump, hoses and nozzles. Drain the
sprayer and properly dispose of antifreeze.
5. The cast iron pump must be either full of antifreeze or
completely empty of all liquid to avoid corrosion. If the
contents of the pump is unclear it is advisable to drain
the pump, remove it, and place it in a warm dry, envi-
ronment during the winter.
