FLUSHING THROUGH HOPPER DRAIN
The hopper can also be rinsed and the rinsate
emptied through the hopper drain ball valve
rather than transferred into the main spray
tank.
To do this:
1. The hose from the right of the hopper
needs to be directed to a safe location as
it may contain rinsate.
2. Ensure the pumped external fresh water
supply system is operating.
3. Open the hopper rinse valve on the top of
the hopper.
4. ‘OPEN’ the hopper tank ball valve at
the bottom of the hopper by turning the
yellow handle down so that it is vertical,
removing the rinsate from the hopper.
5. Open the hopper drain valve.
6. When finished, turn off the external water
delivery and leave the taps open until all
fluid has stopped draining.
When the hopper is empty:
• Remove any chemical drums that have
been rinsed from the hopper.
• Turn the hopper tank valve at the bottom
of the hopper ‘OFF’ by turning the yellow
handle so that it is horizontal.
CAUTION:
• Take proper safety precautions to avoid
any contact with rinsate when flushing, as
it may contain chemical residue.
• Give careful consideration to where the
rinsate is being deposited as it may
contain chemical residue.
Storage
If the SuperFlow Mobile Hopper is to be
stored for a long period of time without
use, there are several tasks that need to be
performed.
1. Clean the Hopper thoroughly as described
under “Flushing”.
2. Store the unit out of direct sunlight and
where it will not be affected by frosts.
3. Ensure that the hopper is empty.
4. Protect hoses and frame.
