Operation & Instructions of New Sprayer

*NOTE: You may need to move the pressure head stand up towards the hitch for it may have been moved for

shipping purposes. This may be done by loosening the 4 - ½” x 3 ½” bolts around the tongue & sliding the plates forward.

First, back your tractor up to the hitch of the sprayer and use a hitch pin to connect tractor to sprayer. Then, connect the PTO coupler on the pump to the shaft by depressing the coupler & sliding it on the shaft letting go of the coupler to allow lock pins to fall into the grooves on the shaft. Wrap chain around draw bar to keep pump from turning.

Next, fill the tank at least ¼ to ½ full of just plain water with no chemicals. Make sure that the suction line shut off valve is open; handle should be going with the line. Screw the pressure regulator part of the way out (gray knob) & make sure agitation valve is ¾ of the way open if supplied (55 gallon sprayer does not have agitation valve). This ensures that you do not peg the gauge & break it. Also, make sure valve under tank is on (handle should be turned going w/ the line).

You are now ready to try out your sprayer. By engaging PTO lever & pulling throttle to the 540RPM mark on the RPM gauge turn boom valve on & adjust the desired pressure that you will need to operate at. Adjust pressure with the pressure regulator (gray knob) & not the agitation valve because you need to keep agitation constant.

CALIBRATING YOUR SPRAYER

HAMILTON NOZZLE 654201

CALIBRATING YOUR SPRAYER

To determine pressure & GPA with a boomless nozzle use this calibration for it is different than a boom calibration:

GPA = 495 X GPM MPH x Swath in feet

EXAMPLE: 495(constant) x 4.2gpm=2079 2079 = 10.395 GPA 4mph x 50’swath=200 200

Refer to Chart

OPERATING DATA OF 180* NOZZLES

SPRAYERS ARE SUPPLIED w/ #10

GPM = Gallons per Minute GPA = Gallons per Acre MPH = Miles per Hour PSI = Pressure per Square Inch

SPRAYING SYSTEMS 5880 BOOMJET NOZZLE

*NOTE: BOOMJET SPRAYERS ARE STANDARD w/ #10 NOZZLES & a HYPRO 6 or 8 ROLLER

PUMP. IF A #20 NOZZLE IS USED THEN YOU NEED TO GO TO A HYPRO 5 ROLLER PUMP & 1” PLUMBING BECAUSE OF THE VOLUME NEEDED.

HYPRO BOOM X TENDER TIPS

*NOTE: YELLOW TIP-XT024 IS USED.

TEEJET SPRAY TIP CALIBRATION

BA6D & BA8D

All standard booms come w/ 8003VP poly tips.

Formula: GPA x MPH x Nozzle Spacing 5940

Example: 20gpa x 4mph x 20” = 1600 = .27gpm

5940 5940

Take the GPM that you figured & look down the GPM chart to figure what pressure you need to run at that desired speed.

*NOTE: If spraying liquid nitrogen you will need to multiply the conversion factor w/ the gpa, mph, & nozzle spacing.

Conversion Factor: 28% Nitrogen - 10.65 lbs. per gal. - 1.13 32% Nitrogen - 11.00 lbs. per gal. - 1.15

Ex. 20gpa x 4mph x 20” x 1.13 = 1808 = .31gpm
