1. Connect supply hose to quick fill valve (valve 3) (If
top filling, open lid and insert supply hose.)
“WARNING!” Be careful if crawling on sprayer. Steel surfaces
can become slick when wet. Also watch head while climbing
onto sprayer if in transport position. Operator must go under
boom to access platform.
2. Make sure main tank valve (valve 1) is open. NOTE:
Make sure rinse tank valve (valve 10) is closed before
filling. Rinse tank could over run and become
chemically contaminated otherwise.
3. Open supply valves and quick fill valve (valve 3) and
start filling sprayer.
4. Start sprayer pump and begin circulating solution.
(NOTE: make sure sprayer booms are off) Make
sure Agitation/Rinse valve is turned with Arrow
pointing downward for agitation and agitation valves
(valve 11 and valve 12) are open.
5. Make sure manual pressure gauge located on
sprayer hand rail has a minimum of 40PSI and
not to exceed maximum of 85PSI while filling.
6. With a minimum of 1/2 tank of solution begin to add
chemical.
OPTIONAL INDUCTOR: Pull transport pin, release safety latch
and gently lower to bottom position. Open Inductor activation
valve (valve 8) to start venturi vacuum. Add pre-determined
chemical amount to inductor tank and then open inductor tank
valve (valve 9) to allow chemical to be pulled into sprayer. (for
dry or heavy viscosity products once premeasured, add some
solution by opening inductor rinse valve (valve 7) 1/8 turn or as
needed to make into a slurry for more efficient induction.) Once
chemical has been drawn out open inductor rinse valve (valve
7) 1/4 turn or as needed to rinse chemical residue down for 1
minute or as needed. Close inductor rinse valve (valve 7) once
tank is empty close inductor tank valve (valve 9). Repeat above
until all chemical is added. When done adding all chemical for
spray solution close inductor activation valve (valve 8) and raise
inductor tank to transport position, activate safety latch, insert
transport pin.
NOTE: For inducting dry flowable products, adjust regulating
valve to 60 P.S.I. minimum.
NOTE: Graduation marking on inductor tank are not calibrat-
ed. Do Not Use for measuring chemical. Only to be used as a
reference point.
NOTE: Make sure inductor rinse tank valve (valve 7) is closed
at all times other than when adding chemical.
7. All chemical needs to be added before solution level
reaches 3/4 of desired capacity.
NOTE: Follow all chemical manufacture label instructions.
