OPERATING HINTS
Suction Filter
When mounted on a horizontal plane the U-filter is factory fitted (200 litre only)
with what is called a “snorkel”
device. This ensures that incoming fluid must rise to nearly the top of the filter body (expelling all air) before exiting
the filter and continuing to the pump. Rapid priming is therefore expelled. On the 400 litre an inline filter is attached
to the pump via a ‘Quadport’ fitting.
WARNING
DO NOT MOUNT THESE SPRAYERS ON TO AN ATV CARRIER FRAME!
CHEMICAL APPLICATION
As no control can be exercised over the use of the equipment or over weather, plant or soil conditions, or over the
storage, handling, mixing, use or application of sprays or chemicals, In-Ex will not accept any liability for loss or
damage (consequential or otherwise) arising directly or indirectly from the use of this equipment.
Chemical Advice
In-Ex or their agents cannot make recommendations or give advice as to the use of chemicals and cannot accept
responsibility for any damage, injury or other consequence for disregarding this warning notice. Contact your
chemical supplier for advice.
MAINTENANCE
Cleaning
Clean the sprayer regularly! After each use flush the unit out three times with fresh water. Use a neutralising agent
for the second rinse.
CAUTION
To prevent damage to the sprayer and spray gun, drain the water from the sprayer and spray gun when there is a
risk of frost.
Filters
Clean all filter screens regularly.
WARNING
If the pump has been mounted without the pump cover, all warranty is void.
NOTE
If the pump is observed to be leaking from between the motor and black pump body or from the motor itself, cease
operation and have the pump serviced immediately. In-Ex and their distributors have a comprehensive parts
inventory and capable staff. Because of the complications of the pump it may be best to get your In-Ex agent to post
it back to the authorised service centre.
Pressure Switch Adjustment
CAUTION
Operating the pump with a higher than normal shut off pressure will shorten pump life.
The shut off pressure of the Flojet pump is adjustable by rotating a 2mm allen head on the top of the pressure
switch assembly. To increase shut off pressure rotate adjustment screw clockwise, to decrease shut off pressure
rotate adjustment screw anti clockwise.
Increasing the shut-off pressure will not increase the flow or the spraying pressure.
