Air Purge
-If Equipped
The Air Purge feature on your machine
allows you to blow out product from the spray
system. You may choose to perform the air
purge in either manual or automatic mode.
In
Manual Mode
, the operator has control
of the solution valves by manipulating the
Boom Solution Valve Switches (located on
the side console section keypad).
In
Automatic Mode
, the air tank on the
machine is filled based on engine speed and
time to automatically recharge the air tank
and purge the spray system. Automatic Air
Purge settings include: Full Boom Purge,
Individual Section Purge, Air Recharge Time,
and Minimum Engine Speed.
Refer to “Machine Display” provided in the
Cab Section
elsewhere in this manual for
further information on adjusting Air Purge
settings and operating instructions.
Wet Boom
The 9-section Wet Boom on your machine
is featured with 1” (2.5 cm) schedule 5
stainless plumbing and delivers solution
directly to the spray nozzles, which allows for
ease of flushing and cleaning of the boom, as
well as decreased contamination/plugging of
nozzles.
The Wet Booms are equipped with
Hypro® Express end caps on the end of the
boom tubing, which aid in eliminating trapped
air from the boom by allowing air to escape
through the nozzle body, reducing nozzle
turn-off time. The end caps are equipped with
a “quick-release” feature to assist in flushing
the Wet Boom tubes.
Refer to “Spray Booms” elsewhere in this
section for further information.
Nozzle Bodies
Nozzle Bodies are located throughout the
boom and consist of a spray tip, gasket, and
cap. The spray tip breaks the solution into
droplets of correct size and forms a uniform
spray pattern.
