Operation while using chemicals. Use appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) to guard against personal contact with chemicals, such as the following: Note: Determine the left and right sides of the machine from the normal operating position.
Fuel Safety • Gasoline is harmful or fatal if swallowed. Long-term exposure to vapors has caused cancer in laboratory animals. Failure to use caution may cause serious injury or illness. Use extreme care when handling fuel. In certain conditions gasoline is extremely flammable and its vapors are explosive. A fire or explosion from gasoline can burn you, others, and cause property damage. • Fill the fuel tank outdoors on level ground, in an open area, when the engine is cold.
The safety interlock system is designed to prevent the engine from starting unless you engage the parking brake. Using Stabilizer/Conditioner Testing the Starter Interlock Use a fuel stabilizer/conditioner in the machine to provide the following benefits: Service Interval: Before each use or daily Important: Do not use fuel additives containing 1. Move the machine to a level surface. 2. Chock the wheels of the machine. 3. Disconnect the spark-plug wires. 4. Release the parking brake. 5.
During Operation overturn the machine or cause you to lose your balance or footing. – Do not operate the machine with damaged guards, shields, or covers. Always have safety shields, guards, switches and other devices in place and working properly. During Operation Safety General Safety – Keep clear of the discharge area at all times. Use your full attention when operating the machine. Do not engage in any activity that causes distractions; otherwise, injury or property damage may occur.
– Do not use the spray wand if the trigger lock is damaged or missing. – Keep children out of the working area and under the watchful care of another responsible adult. – Do not keep the spray wand in the locked-open position after you complete the job. – Be alert and shut off the machine if children enter the area. – When draining or relieving the system, Do not allow anyone to stand in front of the nozzles and do not drain on a person’s feet.

Calibrating the Spreader Place 6 additional pans, on each side, with no gap in between each pan (Figure 29). Calibrate the spreader each time you use a new material. The spreader broadcasts material in a pattern 1.5 to 6.7 m (5 to 22 ft) wide depending on the material particle size, volume/density, rate of travel, and wind conditions.
Determining the Distribution Pattern 1. Set the spreader pattern control to the middle of its travel; refer to . 2. Tap the impeller control switch up or down to adjust the broadcasting pattern. 3. Record the effective spreading width here: . Record the motor-rotation speed here: %. 3. Drive the machine toward the test site at the appropriate speed. 4. As you approach the center pan, pull the wide distribution granular gate control to the open position, and drive over the center pan. 5.
5. Drive the spreader over the calibration course while applying the material. 6. Empty the remaining material of the hopper into a clean bucket; refer to Emptying the Spreader (page 30). 7. Filling the Spreader Hopper Maximum hopper weight capacity: 79 kg (175 lb) Weigh the bucket containing the material and record the weight. Pour the contents back into the hopper and then weigh the empty bucket. Calculate the remaining material weight using the remaining material weight formula.
Emptying the Spreader Removing the Impeller 1. Move the machine to a level surface, move motion-control lever to the NEUTRAL position, shut off the engine, wait for all moving parts to stop, remove key, and engage parking brake. 2. Empty the hopper by scooping out as much of the material as possible. 3. Remove the 4 thumbscrews that secure the front cover ( below the impeller) to the chassis, and remove the cover (Figure 32). g027325 Figure 34 5.

Maintaining the Sprayer System Cleaning Checking Sprayer System Cleaning the Engine and the Exhaust System Area Service Interval: Every 50 hours Service Interval: After each use (may be required more often in dry or dirty conditions.) 1. 2. 3. Prepare the machine for maintenance; refer to Preparing the Machine (page 57). CAUTION Check all hoses, nozzles, and fittings for damage and leaks. Note: Replace all damaged or leaking sprayer components.
4. Storage Install the cooling shrouds onto the engine. Note: Operating the engine without cooling 1. shrouds will cause engine damage due to overheating. Waste Disposal 2. Chemical Disposal Set sprayer-pump switch to the OFF position, stop the machine, move motion-control lever to the NEUTRAL position, shut off the engine, wait for all moving parts to stop, remove key, and engage parking brake. Remove dirt and grime from the entire machine.
B. Start the machine and set sprayer-pump switch to the ON position C. Push the tank-agitation lever to the OFF position. D. Pull the narrow-spray pattern lever. Note: Run the sprayer nozzle until the narrow nozzle is spraying air. E. Push the narrow-spray pattern lever and pull back the wide-spray pattern lever. Note: Run the sprayer nozzles until the both wide nozzles are spraying air. F. 3. Push forward the wide-spray pattern lever. Shut off the sprayer pump and the engine.
Troubleshooting Important: Ensure that the operator safety mechanisms for the machine are connected and in proper operating condition before you use the machine. When a problem occurs, do not overlook the simple causes. For example, starting problems could be caused by an empty fuel tank. The following table lists some of the common causes of trouble. Do not attempt to service or replace major engine items or any items that call for special timing of adjustments procedures (such as valves, governor, etc.).
Spreader Fault Code Table (cont'd.) Motor Wire !05 The motor wire fault code !05 displays if the sprayer controller cannot sense the load circuits (OUT 1 or OUT 2) between the sprayer and information display and the motor. • • Fault code !05 displays in the sprayer and information display. The LED status light illuminates red. Check that pin 6 (MOTOR OUT 1) and pin 8 (MOTOR OUT 2) are seated and locked in the controller connector. 1.
Sprayer Fault Code Table (cont'd.) Motor Overcurrent !02 The motor overcurrent fault code !02 displays if the motor load circuit draws too much current. Check the motor and inspect it for damage and wear. • • Fault code !02 displays in the sprayer and information display. The LED status light illuminates red. Check that pin 6 (MOTOR OUT 1) and pin 8 (MOTOR OUT 2) are seated and locked in the controller connector. 1.
Troubleshooting the Speader and Sprayer Controllers Problem Possible Cause Corrective Action The spreader information display or sprayer information display shows fault core !02. 1. The spreader controller or the sprayer controller detects excessive electrical current to the motor. 1. Spreader—check impeller and hopper for obstructions that may add an excessive load to the impeller motor. Spreader or sprayer—check the electrical circuits to the motor for a short circuit.
Troubleshooting the Machine Problem The starter does not rotate the engine. Possible Cause 1. The parking brake is not engaged. 1. Engage the parking brake. 2. The battery does not have a full charge. 4. A fuse is blown. 5. A relay or switch is worn or damaged. 2. Charge the battery; refer to the Charging the Battery, and Jump Starting the Machine procedures in the Maintenance section. 3. Check the electrical connection(s) for good contact.
Problem The engine overheats. Possible Cause 1. The engine load is excessive. 1. Reduce the ground speed of the machine. 2. The oil level in the engine is low. 2. Add oil into the engine to the proper oil level. 3. Clean the cooling fins and the air passages. 3. The cooling fins and air passages for the engine are plugged with dirt or debris. The machine pulls to the left or the right (with steering control fully forward). Corrective Action 1. The air pressure in the tires is not correct. 1.
Problem There is no spray from the sprayer nozzles in the boom or the nozzles have poor output. No material dispensed from hopper. The spray wand does not work. Possible Cause Corrective Action 1. The sprayer tank is empty. 1. Fill the sprayer tank. 2. The sprayer-pump supply valve is closed or partially closed. 3. The strainer is clogged or damaged. 4. The pump is clogged or damaged. 5. The nozzles are clogged. 6. The hoses are clogged, kinked, or damaged. 7.
