EQUIPMENT SAFETY GUIDELINES

Every year many accidents occur which could be avoided by a few seconds of thought and
more careful approach to handling equipment. You, the operator, can avoid accidents by
observing precautions in this section. To avoid personal injury, study precautions and insist
those working with you, or you yourself, follow them.

In order to provide a better view, certain illustrations in this manual may show an assembly
with a safety shield removed. However, sprayer should never be operated in this condition.
Keep all shields in place. If shield removal becomes necessary for repairs, replace shield
prior to use.

Replace any caution, warning, danger or instruction safety decal that is not readable or is
missing. Location of such decals is indicated in this booklet.

Do not attempt to operate this sprayer under the influence of alcohol or drugs.

Review safety instructions with all users.

Operator should be a responsible adult.

ASSEMBLE THIS SPRAYER UNTIL THEY HAVE DEVELOPED A THOROUGH
UNDERSTANDING OF SAFETY PRECAUTIONS AND HOW IT WORKS.

To prevent injury or death, use a tractor equipped with a roll over protective system (ROPS).
Do not paint over, remove, or deface any safety signs or warning decals on your sprayer.
Observe all safety signs and practice instructions on them.

Never exceed limits of sprayer. If its ability to do a job, or to do so safely is in question

DON'T TRY IT.

DO NOT ALLOW PERSONS TO OPERATE OR

LIGHTING AND MARKING

It is the responsibility of operator to know lighting and marking requirements of local highway
authorities and to install and maintain equipment to provide compliance with regulations.

BEFORE OPERATION:

• Carefully study and understand this manual.

• Do not wear loose-fitting clothing which may catch in moving parts.

• Always wear protective clothing and substantial shoes.

• It is recommended that suitable hearing and eye protection be worn.

• Operator may come in contact with certain materials which may require specific safety
equipment relative to handling of such materials. (Examples: extremely dusty, molds,
fungus, bulk fertilizers, etc.)

Page 8

• Keep wheel and lug nuts tightened to specified torque.

• Assure that agricultural implement tires are inflated evenly.

• Give sprayer a visual inspection for any loose bolts, worn parts, or cracked welds, and make
necessary repairs. Follow maintenance safety instructions included in this manual.

• Be sure there are no tools lying on or in equipment.

• Do not use the sprayer until you are sure that area is clear, especially around children and
animals.

• Don't hurry learning process or take sprayer for granted. Ease into it and become familiar
with your new equipment.

• Practice operation of your sprayer and its attachments. Completely familiarize yourself

and other operators with its operation before using.

• Use a tractor equipped with Roll Over Protection System (ROPS) and fasten your seat belt
prior to starting engine.

• Manufacturer does not recommend usage of tractor with ROPS removed.

• Move tractor wheels to widest recommended settings to increase stability.

• Do not allow anyone to stand between tongue or hitch and towing unit when backing
up to equipment.

DURING OPERATION

• Beware of bystanders, PARTICULARLY CHILDREN! Always look around to make sure it is

safe to start engine of towing unit or move sprayer. This is particularly important with higher noise
levels and quiet cabs, as you may not hear people shouting.

• NO PASSENGERS ALLOWED- Do not carry passengers anywhere on or in the tractor or

sprayer.

• Keep hands and clothing clear of moving parts.

• Do not clean, lubricate, or adjust your sprayer while it is moving.

• When halting operation, even periodically, set tractor or towing unit brakes, disengage

PTO, shut off engine, and remove ignition key.

• Be especially observant of operating area and terrain- watch for holes, rocks, or other hidden
hazards. Always inspect area prior to operation.

- DO NOT operate near edge of drop-offs or banks.

- DO NOT operate on steep slopes as overturn may result.

- Operate up and down (not across) intermediate slopes. Avoid sudden starts and stops.

Page 9

• Pick the most level possible route when transporting across fields. Avoid edges of ditches,
gullies, and steep hillsides.

• Be extra careful when working on inclines.

• Periodically clear equipment of brush, twigs, or other materials to prevent buildup of dry
combustible materials.

• Maneuver tractor or towing unit at safe speeds.

• Avoid overhead wires or other obstacles. Contact with overhead lines could cause serious injury
or death.

• Avoid loose gravel, rocks, and holes; they can be dangerous for equipment operation or movement.

• Allow for sprayer length when making turns.

• Do not walk or work under raised components or attachments unless securely positioned and

blocked.

• Keep all bystanders, pets, and livestock clear of work area.

• Operate towing unit from operators seat only.

• Never stand alongside of unit with engine running or attempt to start engine and/or operate machine
while standing alongside of unit.

• Never leave running equipment attachments unattended.

• As a precaution, always recheck hardware on equipment following every 100 hours of operation.
Correct all problems. Follow maintenance safety procedures.

FOLLOWING OPERATION

• Following operation, or when unhitching, stop tractor or towing unit, set brakes, disengage
PTO and all power drives, shut off engine and remove ignition key.

• Store sprayer in an area away from human activity.

• Do not park sprayer where it will be exposed to livestock for long periods of time. Damage and
livestock injury could result.

• Do not permit children to play on or around the stored sprayer.

• Make sure all parked machines are on a hard, level surface and engage all safety devices.

• Wheel chocks may be needed to prevent unit from rolling.

Page 10

HIGHWAY AND TRANSPORT OPERATIONS

• SAFETY CHAINS: If equipment is going to be transported on a public highway, always

follow state and local regulations regarding safety chains and auxiliary lighting. Be sure to
check with local law enforcement agencies for your own particular regulations. If required
safety chains should be obtained and installed. Only safety chains (not elastic or nylon/plastic
tow straps) should be used to retain connection between towing and towed machines in event
of separation of primary attaching system. Use a high strength, appropriately sized hitch pin
with a mechanical retainer and attach safety chains. Criss cross chains under tongue and
secure to draw bar cage, mounting loops, or bumper frame.

• Adopt safe driving practices:

- Keep brake pedals latched together at all times. NEVER USE INDEPENDENT BRAKING
WITH SPRAYER IN TOW. LOSS OF CONTROL OR UPSET MAY RESULT.

- Always drive at a safe speed relative to local conditions and ensure that your speed is low
enough for an emergency stop. Keep speed to a minimum.

- Reduce speed prior to turns to avoid risk of overturning.

- Always keep tractor or towing unit in gear to provide engine braking when going
downhill. Do not coast.

- Do not drink and drive!

• Comply with state and local laws governing highway safety and movement of farm machinery on
public roads.

• Use approved accessory lighting flags and necessary warning devices to protect operators of

other vehicles on highway during transport. Various safety lights and devices are available

from your dealer.

• Use of flashing amber lights is acceptable in most localities. However, some localities prohibit
their use. Local laws should be checked for all highway lighting and marking requirements.

• When driving tractor and sprayer under 20 mph (40 kph) day or night, use flashing amber warning
lights and a slow moving vehicle (SMV) identification emblem.

• Plan your route to avoid heavy traffic.

• Be a safe and courteous driver. Always yield to oncoming traffic in all situations, including narrow
bridges, intersections, etc.

• Be observant of bridge load ratings. Do not cross bridges rated lower than gross weight of unit
you are operating.

Page 11

• Watch for obstructions overhead and side to side while transporting.

• Always operate equipment in a position to provide maximum visibility at all times. Make
allowances for increased length and weight of sprayer when making turns, or stopping.

PERFORMING MAINTENANCE

• Good maintenance is your responsibility. Poor maintenance is an invitation to trouble.

• Make sure there is plenty of ventilation. Never operate engine of towing vehicle in
a closed building. Exhaust fumes may cause asphyxiation.

• Before working on this machine, stop towing vehicle, set brakes, disengage PTO
and all power drives, shut off engine and remove ignition key.

• Be certain all moving parts and attachments have come to a complete stop before
attempting to perform maintenance.

• Always use a safety support and block wheels. Never use a jack to support machine.

• Always use proper tools or equipment for job at hand.

• Use extreme caution when making adjustments.

• Follow torque chart in this manual when tightening bolts and nuts.

• Never use your hands to locate a hydraulic leak on attachments. Use a small piece of
cardboard or wood. Hydraulic fluid escaping under pressure can penetrate skin.

• Openings in skin and minor cuts are susceptible to infection from hydraulic fluid.

Without immediate medical treatment, serious infection and reactions can occur.

• When disconnecting hydraulic lines, shut off hydraulic supply and relieve all hydraulic
pressure.

• Replace all shields and guards after servicing and before moving.

• After servicing, be sure all tools, parts and service equipment are removed.

• Do not allow grease or oil to build up on any steps or platform.

• When replacing bolts refer to owners manual.

• Refer to bolt torque chart for head identification marking.

• Where replacement parts are necessary for periodic maintenance and servicing,
genuine factory replacement parts must be used to restore your equipment to original
specifications. Manufacturer will not claim responsibility for use of unapproved parts or
accessories and other damages as a result of their use.

• If equipment has been altered in any way from original design, manufacturer does
not accept any liability for injury or warranty.

• A fire extinguisher and first aid kit should be kept readily accessible while performing
maintenance on this equipment

Installation John Deere 8000 Track

Use any three holes in a row of the five
holes depending on the track width. When
position is determined remove every other
bolt of the six bolts in the track mount, that
will match up with the three bolts (#5) in
the bracket. Repeat for other side of track
mounting. On the row of bolts to the front
of the tractor, hold bolts in bracket up to
just short of flush of the bottom of bracket,
secure in that position with vice grips. Also
adjust track so bolts will miss lugs. Then
slide in place and tighten all bolts. See

Assembly Instructions

Preparation: Remove any loader brackets from the tractor. The

tractors duals must be set to 120” wheel spacing.

1. Remove every other lug bolt on the tractor’s dual, and replace
them with the special spacer Stud Bolts included with the SideQuest
hardware as shown in VIEW A. (Note: Only when replacing stud
bolts on a JD 7000 Series Tractor, the existing washers MUST be
used). After all of the removed lug bolts are replaced, remove the
rest of the tractor’s lug bolts and replace them with the SideQuest
stud bolts. Torque the SideQuest stud bolts to tractor manufacturer’s
specifications.

2. Bolt the Hub Spacer to the SideQuest stud bolts as shown in
VIEW B. Use ten 7/8”-UNF x 2” hex head bolts and ten 7/8” lockwashers.
Then bolt the Hub/Spindle Assembly to the Hub Spacer. Use eight 5/
8”-UNF x 2” hex head bolts and lockwashers to bolt the Hub/Spindle
Assembly to the Hub Spacer. Torque all bolts to the specifications
found earlier in the manual.

3. Mount the Left and Right Base Plates to the tractor’s frame. All Base
Plates will mount between the tractors cab and front wheels to existing
holes in the tractors frame. All tractors’ mounting brackets can be viewed
on pages 14-16.

13

VIEW A

4. Mount the Tank Holder with Tank, and Tank Hold Downs. Before
mounting, decide which height setting is desirable. There are two height
settings. Slide the Tank holder over the spindle as shown in VIEW C.
Make sure the arrow on the end of the spindle is always pointing up as
shown. Use the bottom hole for a higher height setting, and use the
top hole for a lower height setting. Slide the tank holder in until there is
a spacing of approximately 2” between the tire and the Tank Holder.
Use four 1/2”-UNC x 1 1/4” set screws to hold the spindle in place.
Turn the set screws into the threaded inserts on the outside of the tube
the spindle has been placed in.

5. Next bolt the Mounting Extension Arm to the Tank Holder. Use four 1/
2”-UNC x 1 3/4” hex head bolts, four 1/2” lockwashers, and four 1/2”
hex nuts.

6. Repeat same instructions for the opposite side.

SPRAYER CHECKLIST:

Downtime caused by field breakdowns is costly and time consuming. Many breakdowns can be
eliminated by periodic equipment maintenance. By spending time reviewing this checklist before
seasonal spraying application time and following proper after season care, you can save time and
money later.

WARNING: To Prevent Serious Injury Or Death!

• Keep hands, feet, and loose clothing away from rotating parts.

• Wear protective clothing recommended by your chemical and

fertilizer manufacturer when working with chemicals.

Check Before Going To The Field :

1. NOZZLES

Check tip for excessive wear by checking for grooves in
or near tip opening. Check nozzle spacing by starting at
center and working outwards. Check boom for proper
height.

2. HOSES

Check all hoses for worn or soft spots. Be sure all hose
clamps are tightened and hoses are not kinked or pinched.
Check for leakage in any lines.

3. TANK

Remove and clean agitator orifices. Check orifices for
excessive wear by checking for grooves in or near orifice
opening. Inspect fitting and grommets to insure they are
in good condition.

4. CONTROLS

Check for leakage, plugging, or wear on all valves,
fittings, etc. Clean off any build up of foreign material.

5. PUMP

Check to be sure pump turns freely.

6. FRAME

Be sure all bolts are tightened.

7. REPLACEMENT PARTS

Replace all worn or damaged parts.

After Season Care:

NOTE: It is important to wear proper safety equipment

when cleaning the SIDEQUEST . See your
chemical or fertilizer package for this information.

1. After spraying chemicals, run water mixed with cleaners

through tank, pump and all hose hookups. If wettable
powder dries out in the system, it is very difficult to put
back into suspension and can cause malfunction,
damage or injury.

2. When cleaned, tank should have all openings closed or

covered to keep dirt from entering.

3. Pump should be flushed with soluble oil and pump ports

plugged to keep out moisture and air.

4. Disassemble tips and rinse with water or cleaning

solution. (Appropriate for chemical sprayed).

5. Clean tip opening with a wooden toothpick. Never use

wire or hard object that could distort opening.

6. Dispose of all unused chemicals or solutions in a proper

and ecologically sound manner.

6. Water rinse and dry tips before storing.

NOTE: DETHMERS MANUFACTURING COMPANY

does not and will not make any recommendations
concerning application of various chemicals or
solutions. These recommendations relate to either
amount or procedure of materials applied. If you
have any questions regarding application of certain
chemicals or solutions, contact your chemical
supplier and follow chemical manufacturer
recommendations.
