USER’S INSTRUCTIONS
4.1
DESCRIPTION OF THE MACHINE
The atomisers consist of a structural steel frame and a polyester tank reinforced with
fibreglass or high-density polyethylene. The frame is hot-galvanised. The tank is easy to
empty and this makes it possible to use the machine even on hillsides.
The pumps are generally diaphragm pumps but in some cases they are fitted with
pistons.
The accessories for completing the fitting, non-drip jets and ceramic nozzles make the
UNIGREEN atomiser a highly qualified and efficient piece of equipment.
4.1.1 WORK STATIONS
The use of this machine does not envisage an operator standing constantly near the
same, the operator normally sits in the cab of the tractor.
During calibration and maintenance operations the operator will be working near the
machine at ground level (for all the calibration and maintenance operations refer to the
relevant chapters).
In case of operations that request the entry to parts of the machines located at 1,5 mt.
height ,it is advised to use a ladder at rule; the ladder shall be positioned steady on a
flat ground not yielding and with the machine at a standstill and braked.
In some special models with controls above 1.5 metres there is a platform to make
these operations easier.
This platform must only be used with the machine stopped.
