Safety precautions - crop protection chemicals
Always be careful when working with crop protection chemicals!
±
WARNING! Always wear proper protective clothing before handling chemicals!
Personal protection
Depending on chemical type, protective gear/equipment should be worn to avoid contact with the chemicals, e.g.:
•
Gloves
•
Waterproof boots
•
Headgear
•
Respirator
•
Safety goggles
•
Chemical resistant overall
±
WARNING! Protective clothing/equipment should be used when preparing the spray liquid, during the spray job and
when cleaning the sprayer. Follow the chemical manufacturer’s instructions given on the chemical label and/or local
legislation.
±
WARNING! It is always advisable to have clean water available, especially when filling the sprayer with the chemical.
±
WARNING! Always clean the sprayer carefully and immediately after use.
±
WARNING! Only mix chemicals in the tank according to directions given by the chemical manufacturer.
±
WARNING! Always clean the sprayer before changing to another chemical.
Filling chemicals through tank lid
The chemicals are filled through the tank lid - Note instructions on the chemical container!
±
WARNING! Be careful not to slip or splash chemicals when carrying chemicals up to the tank lid!
μ
ATTENTION! Due to risk of spillage and spot contamination it is not allowed in several countries to fill chemicals
directly through the tank lid. Use the TurboFiller for all induction of chemicals instead.
1.
Make sure the spray control unit is switched off.
2.
Set suction valve towards “Suction from main tank”, Agitation valve
towards “Agitation”. Turn pressure SmartValve towards “Spraying”.
3.
Engage the pump and set P.T.O. revolutions to 540 r.p.m.
4.
Add the chemicals through the main tank hole.
5.
When the spray liquid is well mixed, turn handle on the pressure
SmartValve towards “Spraying” position. Keep P.T.O. engaged so
the spray liquid is continuously agitated until it has been sprayed
on the crop.
€
DANGER! Before turning Pressure SmartValve to “Pressure
draining/TurboFiller” it is very important to be sure that the quick coupler lid is correct and completely mounted to
the filling stud into its locked position. Failure to do so may cause risk of contamination and injury from quick coupler
lid being “shot” off when pressurized! If not possible to mount lid completely, lubricate the rubber seal and the grip
hooks.
÷
NOTE! Local legislation may not allow filling through the tank lid, but will require use of the chemical inductor instead.
