Before spraying, adjust the EVC operating unit using clean water (with-
out chemicals).
1. Choose the correct nozzle for the spray job by turning the TRIPLET
nozzle bodies. Make sure that all nozzles are the same type and capaci-
ty. See the “Spray Technique” book.
2. Make sure all distribution valves (A) are turned on.
3. Set pressure regulation valve to minimum pressure (activate pressure
regulation switch “down” until emergency handle stops rotating).
4. Put the tractor in neutral and adjust the P.T.O. revolutions to the num-
ber of revolutions that will typically be used while spraying. Remember
the number of revolutions on the P.T.O. must be kept between 300-600
r.p.m. (540 r.p.m. pump) or 650-1100 rpm (1000 r.p.m. pump).
5. Activate pressure regulation switch “up” until the required spraying
pressure is shown on the pressure gauge.
Adjustment of pressure equalization:
1. Disconnect power to the control box to allow for manual operation of
the boom distribution valves. Adjustments will be made one section at
a time until all valves have been adjusted.
2. Note the pressure on the pressure gauge. This reading will be used
throughout the adjustment.
3. Manually close one of the distribution valves by turning the green
handle (A).
4. Turn the adjusting screw (B), under the valve just closed, until the
pressure gauge again shows the same pressure as before (clockwise for
higher pressure, counterclockwise for lower pressure).
5. Turn the distribution valve (A) back on.
6. Adjust the other sections of the distribution valve in the same way.
WARNING! Although the clean water tank is only filled with
clean water, this water must never be used for drinking.
A clean water tank is integrated into the front left corner of the main
tank (behind the MANIFOLD system). It is accessed for filling at the
sprayer’s left side when entering the platform. Remove tank lid, fill
with clean water and replace tank lid.
For use of water, turn the ball valve lever to open tap. The ball valve
is located at the bottom of the clean water tank on sprayer’s left
side. The water from this tank is for hand washing, cleaning of
clogged nozzles, etc. Only fill the clean water tank with clean water.
Capacity: 4.8 gal. (18 liters).

ATTENTION! HEREAFTER ADJUSTMENT OF PRESSURE EQUALIZATION WILL ONLY BE NEEDED WHEN:
1. YOU CHANGE TO NOZZLES WITH OTHER CAPACITIES
2. THE NOZZLE OUTPUT INCREASES AS THE NOZZLES WEAR
