SPRAYER OPERATION
1) Turn the handle of the control valve, and set it to the position for weeding, spray, or high
pressure (stationary) to match the pressure to operation conditions.
2) Check spraying conditions and the status
of the equipment.
3) Move the throttle to the high speed position.
PRESSURE CONTROL SETTINGS
1) START – When the engine starts and the pump is priming.
2) WEEDING – When low pressure spraying is necessary. (For spraying herbicides, and other
chemicals in a controlled area.)
3) SPRAYING – Normal spraying.
4) HIGH PRESSURE – When high pressure is especially required. When using an extended
length of hose and additional pressure is needed to push chemical.
WARNING:
When the pressure control valve handle is changed from "High
Pressure" to "Spray" or "Weeding", the engine speed can be too high, corresponding
to the extent of lowered pressure. Therefore, before readjusting the pressure control
valve handle, move the throttle to the idle position. Then adjust throttle after handle
has been changed to the desired setting.
CAUTION –
Do not run engine without having the pickup hose submerged in liquid.
CAUTION –
Only run pump for 20 seconds after removing pickup hose from solution to flush
solution of chemical. Pump should be flushed with clean water.
