Operation & Instructions of New Sprayer

First, back your tractor up to the sprayer, let lift arms all the way down and insert the lift pins into the lift
arms of the tractor and secure with lock pins. Secondly, hook up the top link on the tractor to the very top
hole of the frame. Connect the pump to the PTO shaft on your tractor by pulling the orange coupler back
while sliding it onto the PTO shaft until the balls lock into the grooves on the shaft. After pump is secure
take the chain and wrap it around the drawbar of the tractor using the snap link to snap the chain together
to keep pump from twisting hoses when PTO is engaged.

Next, fill the tank at least _ to _ full of plain water with no chemicals. Screw the pressure regulator (part
#23120-3/4-pp) part of the way out (gray knob). This ensures that you do not over pressurize and break
the gauge. Also, make sure valve underneath tank is open (handle should be turned going with the line).

You are now ready to try out your sprayer. Engage the PTO lever and pull throttle to the 540RPM mark
on the RPM gauge. Turn boom valve on & adjust to the desired operating pressure with the pressure
regulator (gray knob, part #23120-3/4-pp).
