the agitator ball valve on the spray tank. Engage the pump
and open the valves to bring the boom up to operating
pressure. With the boom spraying, check all plumbing
connections for leaks. Make sure that all tips are spraying
a uniform pattern.
Note: The return valve should be opened fully only
when mixing chemical in the main tank. This valve can
be partially opened during spraying to control the pump
pressure. Fully opening during spraying will prevent
the boom from achieving operating pressure.
Turn the pump off, close the spray tank ball valve and clean
out the main strainer.
Filling The Fresh Water Tank
Only potable water should be added to the fresh wa-
ter tank. Addition of contaminated water could cause
bodily injury when used for washing hands, face and
eyes.
VersaTrail, 1600 --
Remove the cap from the fresh water
tank fill valve and couple the supply line. Open the fresh
water tank fill valve and open the supply line. When the
tank is full, close the fresh water tank fill valve before dis
-
connecting the supply hose.
1,000 Field Sprayer --
The fresh water tank is filled by
inserting a supply hose through the fillwell on top of the
tank.

Installing tip screen and spray tip
Open ball valves to allow water to gravity flow through
the system. Check for any leaks. Close all ball valves
except the main ball valve between the spray tank and
the pump.
It is important to flush the boom before installing the spray
tips.
Note: The hydraulic fluid flow supplying the pump must
be set the first time the pump is engaged and anytime a
different hydraulic circuit or tractor is used. Before engag
-
ing the pump, turn the hydraulic adjustment to its lowest
setting for that particular circuit. With the return and boom
valves turned off, engage the hydraulic lever and slowly
increase the hydraulic fluid flow until the boom pressure
gauge reads not more than 100 psi.
Set the controller to manual. Activate the valve for each
boom section so that water is flushed through open nozzle
bodies. Turn the pump off once the boom is flushed. See
Figure C5.
Install the spray tips and tip screens in each nozzle body.
Note: Some sprayers may be equipped with double line
strainer, therefore, making tip screens unnecessary.
