Filling through tank lid
Water is filled into the tank by removing the tank lid located at . It is recommended to use as clean water as possible for
spraying purposes. Always fill water through the strainer basket to prevent foreign particles from entering the tank. An
overhead tank can be used in order to obtain high filling capacity.
±
WARNING! Do not let the filling hose enter the tank. Keep it
outside the tank, pointing towards the filling hole. If the hose is
led into the tank and the water pressure drops at the water
supply plant, chemicals may be syphoned back and contaminate
the water supply lines, plant and well.
±
WARNING! The water supply line should be provided with a check
valve as additional safety precaution. Follow local legislation in
force at any time.
±
WARNING! The water supply should be provided with a meter to avoid spillage by over-filling. Follow local legislation
in force at any time.
External Filling Device (optional)
The External Filling Device is operated as follows:
1. Remove cover and connect suction hose to Suction Manifold.
2. Turn agitation valve to “Agitation”, pressure SmartValve to “Main
tank”.
3. Engage diaphragm pump and set P.T.O. revolutions at 540 r/min.
4. Turn handle on External Filling Device valve towards Filling Device.
5. The tank is now filled with water. Keep an eye on the liquid level
indicator.
6. Turn handle on Suction Manifold away from Filling Device to
discontinue filling process. Then disengage pump.
7. Disconnect suction tube and replace cover.
€
DANGER! Avoid contamination or personal injury. Do not open
suction valve towards Suction Filling Device unless pump is
running and filling hose is connected. If this valve is opened
without pump running, liquid will stream out of the coupler.
±
WARNING! Do not leave the sprayer whilst filling the tank and keep an eye on the level indicator in order NOT to
overfill the tank.
±
WARNING! If suction hose/filter is carried on the sprayer during spraying, it can be contaminated by spray drift which
will be transferred to lake/river when filling!
μ
ATTENTION! Observe local legislation regarding use of filling device. In some areas it is prohibited to fill from open
water reservoirs (lakes, rivers etc.). It is strongly recommended only to fill from closed reservoirs (mobile water tanks
etc.) to avoid contamination.
