Refer to Figure 1
The GreatPlainsTandem Axle Sprayeris equipped with
either a clevis style hitch, or a single tang hitch.
11568
Figure 1
Clevis Style Hitch Single Tang Hitch
Refer to Figure 2
1. Park the sprayerin an open,flat area with the jack in
the park position. Using a tape measure, check the
distancefrom the frontunder side ofthe frame tothe
ground and the back under side of the frame to the
ground. Adjust the jack so that dimension "A" is
11/2inchesgreaterthan dimension "B". The goal is
to have the solution drain into the sump of the tank
so there is no excess solution in the tank when
drained.
11569
4. Hitch the sprayer to the tractor using a hitch pin of
adequate strength (minimum 1 inch diameter). You
must also install a retaining clip on the hitch pin to
preventit from coming out and causing a chemical
spill.Retractthejackuntil theweight istransferredto
the hitch.
5. Recheck to see that the frame is sloping downward
in the front with dimension “A" being approximately
1 1/2 inches greater than dimension “B”.
6. Your Sprayer comes equipped with a hitch safety
chain.The safetychain should be securelyattached
to the sprayer hitch and the tractor drawbar support
whenevertowing or spraying.
Refer to Figure 4
7. Unpin the tongue jack, and pin it in the transport position.
2. Back the tractor draw bar up to the sprayer hitch to
determine the amount of adjustment needed.
Refer to Figure 3
3. The mounting holesin the hitch havethreepositions
that it can be located. Movethe sprayerhitch height
to the height of your tractor’sdrawbar and bolt the
hitch onto the sprayermaking sure to torque the
bolts to the correct specification on the “Torque Val-
ues Chart” on page 62. The single tang hitch has
the same height adjustment as the clevis hitch.

Tractor / PTO Pump Hook-Up
1. Position the PTO pump on the tractor’s PTO shaft
with the coupler bolt loose on the splined end.
2. Push the coupler of the pump on to align with notch
in the tractor PTO shaft and install bolt.
3. Make sure there is adequate hose length to reach
the pump.
4. If youhavea 540rpmpump ora 1000rpm1 3/8 inch
spline pump, torque the 1/2 inch Grade 8 coupler
bolts to 105 ft-lbs. If you havea 1000 rpm 1 3/4 inch
spline PTO pump, torque the 5/8 inch Grade 8 coupler bolt to 210 ft-lbs and the other 1/2 inch Grade 8
coupler bolt to 105 ft-lbs.
5. Rotate thePTOshaft byhand tomake surethe bolts
clear the PTO shielding.
6. Attach the torque bar chain to the drawbar securely.
7. Hook the tarp strap in such a way that the slack in
the chain is taken up slowly when the PTO is engaged so the torque bar does not bang.
8. Tie up any loose hoses with cable ties to prevent
hose damage.
Tractor / Hydraulic Pump Hook-Up
1. Yourtractor should be equipped with at least two remote outlets (one pair).
2. If your tractor has an open-center hydraulicsystem,
remove the orifice restrictor in the pressure line. If
your open-center hydraulic system produces more
than15 GPM, it isnot recommended to hookthis hydraulic pump up to your tractor.The pump will spin
too fast. If your open-center hydraulic system is 15
GPMor less,itis recommendedto installa hydraulic
flow divider so that you can adjust the speed of the
pump. A Gresen model number CFDA or similar
flow divider will work. The maximum flow for the hydraulic motor is 6 GPM.
4. If your tractor has a closed-center system, or a flow divider has been installed in your tractor’s open-center
system, set the hydraulic flow control valve at a minimum flow for the pair of outlets that operates the
pump.
5. With water in the sprayertank, and water in the pump,
place the hydraulic lever in the float position and start
the tractor.
6. Place a stop in the neutral position of your tractor hydraulics so that the lever can only be moved to the
float and down positions. Refer to your tractor operator’s manual or tractor dealer on information for the
neutral stop.
IMPORTANT: DO NOT move the h ydr aulic lever into
the neutral position while the hydraulic pump is running. To do so may cause damage to the hydraulic
pump.
7. To set the hydraulic flow control on the tractor,first engage the pump by placing the hydraulic leverin the
down position. Once the system builds pressure,
close the agitation valve,shut off the boom section
switches and close throttling valves {if applicable}.
Sprayerswith RavenAutomatic Monitors do not have
throttling valves.The pump is now at dead head pressure.Adjust thehydraulic flowcontrol valvesothat the
spray pressure reaches 80 PSI maximum on the nozzlepressure gauge. If so equipped, reset the solenoid
throttling valves as described in the "Solenoid Throt-
tling Valve" on page 51.
3. For the hydraulic motor to turn in the right direction,
thepressure hosemust beconnected tothe "A"port
ofthe motor and the return line connected to the "B"
port. Install hydraulic hose clamp label provided {refer to hydraulic pump section in parts manual} approximately18inches fromtractor quickcouplersso
that the hydraulic cylinder retract symbol and arrow
aligns with the pressure hose going to motor port
"A". If your tractor is a John Deere, leave the restrictor in the pressure side ofthehydraulicpump.If
your tractor has a closed center hydraulic system
and is not a John Deere, remove the restrictor.

Basic Sprayer Operating
Procedures
1. Make sure to read the label on the chemical compound that is to be applied. It is the law.
2. Consider how the chemical will be stored and how
you will dispose of the chemical, according to the
chemical label.
3. When calibrating, filling the tank, or working around
chemicals, wear protective clothing that covers the
body. Refer to "Personal Safety Equipment"on
page 5. Have soap and clean water availableto
wash any exposed areas. Never open a container
with your bare hands.
4. When filling the sprayer, it is better to mix the chemical in the field where it is to be applied. Position the
sprayer100 feetfrom any well or other water source
BEFORE mixing chemical.
5. By law,you must repeat the rinsing of the chemical
container 3 times. The container should then be
punctured to preventfuture use. An alternative is to
jet-rinse or pressure rinse the container.
11. Take note of adjoining crops, houses, gardens, people, etc.
12. When youarefinished spraying,emptythe tank and
flush the sprayerwith water,including the pump,the
nozzles and the bypass line from the solenoids.
Properlystore thechemical emptiedfrom thetank or
dispose of it by the recommendations on its label.
13. When turning at the end of a field, make sure you
are correct on the rows so that the boom will not
overlap on crop previously sprayed.
6. Check the condition of hoses and connections frequently. Release system pressure BEFORE working on the sprayerby shutting off the pump and
flipping the individual boom section switches on the
control box. ALWAYS wear rubber gloves when
making repairs or adjustments.
7. After unfolding the boom, remove the level float pin
and place in the storage position. Refer to your
Great Plains Boom Manual for more information.
Note: If possible, do not operate your Great Plains
SprayerBoom without first unlocking the level-floatpin.
Theboom will float overthe contoursof the ground more
effectivelyand minimize stress on the boom.
8. Apply spray when the wind is 5 m.p.h. or less. Minimize drift by using nozzle tips with the largest practicalopeningsandbyoperating the sprayerboom at
the lowestpractical height and lowest practical pressure.
9. Drive at the same speed you used in your calibration. Refer to "Sprayer Calibrations" on page 28.
Keep your sprayer calibrated.
10. If possible work crosswise to the wind, starting from
the downwind side of the field. Do this so you won’t
everbe heading directly into chemical fumes.

Plumbing Operations {Manual Control System Only}
The basic plumbing diagrams are shown for both the
stainless steel tank sprayerand the polyethylene tank
sprayer. A basic knowledge of how the sprayeris
plumbed will help youto understand how to operate you
Great Plains Sprayer. Throughout this manual, the components on this diagram will be described with the
terminology labeling these components. For further details about the plumbing components, refer to the parts
manual.
1. Fluid is drawn out of the sump in the tank and passes through the pump. From the pump it passes
through the solution whirlfilter®and filters out or
grinds up all undissolved chemical and solid particles.The fluidthen passesthroughthe agitationball
valve or proceeds through the electric pressure adjustment ball valve. If the fluid passes through the
electric ball valve,it proceeds to the 3-way solenoid
valves.If a solenoid valve is on, the fluid passes to
its perspective boom section and is sprayedout the
individual nozzles. If that solenoid is off,the fluid bypasses back into the pump inlet.
Plumbing Diagrams Stainless Steel Tank

{Manual Control System Only}
You can monitor the nozzle pressure gauge and adjust the pressure to the booms by adjusting the
pressure switch on the control box. The pressure
switch rotates the electric ball valve.To decrease
thesensitivity of the pressure adjustment switchthe
manual pressure adjustment valvemust be set. To
set this valve, run the pump at the same rpm you
would when spraying. Open the electric ball valve
completely and adjust the manual pressure adjustment valvedown so that the nozzle pressure gauge
reads10to 20 psi greater than the pressure you will
sprayat.This will decreasethe amountof flowtothe
electric ball valve and reduce its sensitivity.
Note: When pressure is increased at a later date, the
manual pressure adjustment valvewill need to be
opened.
The agitation can be set by adjusting the agitation pressure valve while the pump is at operating speed. Adjust
thevalveuntil youget thedesiredagitation pressureyou
would like on the agitation pressure gauge.
There are tank shut off valves everywhere there is an
outlet from the tank so that if there is a leak, the source
can be shut off and the chemical spill reduced. These
valvesneed to be wide open when the sprayeris in use.

CAUTION
Do not add the chemical until you areat the field, just prior to
spraying. When you add the chemical, follow the manufacturer’s instructions for mixing the spray solution in order to
achieve the desired application rate.
!
CAUTION
Read the manufacturer’s label carefully before handling
chemicals.
3. Before you add the chemical to the tank, make sure
the tank is at least one half full. The concentrate
should not be poured into an empty tank.
23
To operate the hydraulic pump, first make sure that the
hydraulic hoses are routed correctly so that the pump
turns in the correct direction. See the “Tractor/Hydrau-
licPump Hook-Up”on page 16, formore details.Torun
the pump, push the hydraulic lever in the “down” position. When you want to stop the pump, push the
hydraulic lever in the “float” position.
IMPORTANT: Do not move the hydraulic lever to the
neutral position while the hydraulic pump is running.
To do so may cause damage to the hydraulic pump.
Filling Tank Procedures
!
CAUTION
Whenfilling thesprayer tank, use a checkvalve or anti-siphon
device to prevent the solution in the tank from infiltrating into
the fresh water source and contaminating it.
Your Great Plains Sprayer fills the tank from the bottom
of the tank and uses a standard 2 inch Cam-Lock coupler to connect to the freshwater hose. An 1 1/2 inch
camlockcoupler isalsoavailableas an accessory.Refer
to "Quick Fill Assembly" in the parts manual.
4. Keep the spray solution away from all skin. Wear
protective clothing and goggles. If the solutions
comes in contact with the body, wash off the contaminated area with soap and water.
5. Keep chemical containers low when pouring.
6. Let the wind blow fumes and dust away from you
while pouring the chemical.
7. DO NOT smoke while handling chemicals.
Using Handwash Tank
In the event when an accident occurs and chemical is
spilled on your skin or in your eyes, use the Handwash
Tank to flush away the chemical.
1. Open the tank valve and use the hose to direct the
clean water on all contaminated areas. Wash all areas of skin that has been contaminated with soap
and water. To flush your eyes, point the hose and
water stream upward while you lower your eye into
the stream of flowing water.
2. Close the tank valve and refill the handwash tank
with fresh water when you are finished.
3. Periodically refill the handwash tank with fresh water. ALWAYS keep the handwash tank clean.
1. To fill the tank, hook up the freshwater hose to the
quick-fillcamlockcoupler withthequick-fillballvalve
in the closed position.
2. Turn the water on and open the quick-fill ball valve
for the freshwater to enter the tank. When using a

Getting Acquainted with your
Chemical Inductor
The chemical inductor provides a safe and easy way to
put the chemical into the tank. Using an inductor tank
you do not have to climb up on the walkboard and dispense the chemical into the tank from the tank lid. You
place the chemical into the inductor tank and allow it to
transfer the chemical into the sprayer tank. Follow the
following instructions to use the inductor tank.
Inducting Chemical Into The Sprayer
Tank
Refer to Figure 17 on the next page
1. Fill the Sprayer Tankwith water.
2. Turn all the boom sections OFF and start the pump.
Adjust the pump speed and the agitation to the desired pressure (refer to the sprayer owners manual).
3. With the pump running at the operating spraying
pressure, open the inductor bypass valve(1) full
open.
!
WARNING
Run the pump when using the inductor tank. Failure to do so
will cause chemical overflow.
4. Fill the inductor tank with the correct volume of
chemical to induct into the tank.
IMPORTANT:The inductor tank holds 15 gallons.
Depending on how much chemical you need to add
to the sprayer tank you may hav e to fill the inductor
tank a few times. Make sure that you add the correct
amount of chemical.
5. Allow the pump to operate 30 seconds with the inductor bypass valve(1) open and open the inductor
tank valve (2) full open. This will allow the chemical
inthe inductor tank tobetransferredintothe sprayer
tank.
!
WARNING
When the inductor tank is not being used, keep the inductor
tank valve closed to prevent chemical overflow.
6. When the chemical in the inductor tank reaches
near the bottom of the inductor tank, shut the inductor tank valve (2) before the chemical is completely
gone and add any additional chemical to the inductor tank.
7. When you have added the correct amount of chemical into the inductor tank, and the chemical has
been emptied until the chemical levelin the inductor
tankis toward the bottom, turn on the washoutvalve
(3).
8. After the washout valvehas washed the sides of the
inductor tank, close the washout valve (3) and turn
on the inductor tank valve (2) full open until the
chemical in the bottom of the inductor tank is gone.

10. Use Calibration kit providedwith booms to calibrate.
This method gives you the distance driven to cover
1/128 acre {because there are 128 ounces per gallon}.
The time required to drive that distance is measured
first, and the volume of spray in ounces caught in the
timeyou measuredisyour applicationratein gallons per
acre. From the chart below, determine the distance to
drive in the field {three runs are suggested} to obtain
youraverage time in seconds. You will generally use 15,
20, or 30 inch nozzle spacing on standard booms.
1. Determine your nozzle size, spacing, and pressure
to achieve your desired rate from the application
guide.
2. Measure the nozzle spacing on your boom and determine the distance to drive to calibrate your sprayer.
3. Mark off the distance with two markers provided, tie
twine at distance needed for nozzle spacing {Table
1} and time how many seconds it takes to drive this
distance at the speed you will be spraying at. Make
sureyou are at sprayingspeed when youcross both
marks. Two or more runs are suggested with the

4. With the sprayer filled with water {no chemical added}, park in an open area with the booms unfolded.
Prepareto collect samples at the individualnozzles.
Turn on the pump and run it at the operation pressure. If applicable, correctly set the solenoid throttling valves. Refer to “Solenoid Throttling Valve”
on page 51. Flip on the boom section switch{es} on
the control box and catch the water being sprayed
outof the nozzle{s} with cup providedas you are calibrating.
5. Measure the volume of the sample in ounces over
the time it took to travelthe distance in Step #3. The
numberof ounces caught is theexact number ofgallons per acre you will apply with that perspective
nozzle.
EXAMPLE 1: With a 20 inch spacing, ittook 28 seconds
to travel the 204 feet {refer to Table 1}. Using a MeterCone®1.875 nozzle at 35 psi, the volume caught in 28
secondswas21 ounces.This illustratesyou wouldapply
21 gallons per acre with this nozzle.
EXAMPLE 2:With a 30 inch spacing, it took 15 seconds
to travel 136 feet {refer to Table 1}. Using a TeeJet
®
XR11003 nozzle at 30 psi, the volume caught in 15 seconds was 13 ounces. This means you will apply 13
gallons per acre with the XR11003 nozzle at the same
ground speed as when you drove the 136 feet.
Step 3: Net determine your nozzle spacing in inches.
EXAMPLE: 1 nozzle every 40".
SOLUTION:
Gallons per acre = 5940x Gallonper minute
Nozzle spacing in inches x
Miles Per Hour
GPA = 5940 x .50
40 x 5
GPA = 2970

GPA = 14.9
The above information will assure you of a check for accurate application in the event there is an error in the
gauge nozzle spacing, nozzle height, tractor speed or
nozzle wear.
Miles Per Hour Calibration
To determine true ground speed, use Table 2 with the
sprayerhalf-filled with water.
When measuring the mph of your tractor,always simulate current field conditions as close as possible, taking
care to account for wheel slippage.
Basic Sprayer Calibration
To double check the accuracy of your Great Plains
Sprayer, the following instructions provide another
method of calibration:
Step 1: Measure 200 feet and determine the number of
seconds required to travelthis distance under field conditions with implements in working condition.
EXAMPLE: It takes 27 seconds to travel the 200 feet
which equals 5 mph.
Step 2: Place graduated container,provided with boom
calibrationkit, underone nozzle andcatch thedischarge
for 1 minute. Divide 128 into the number of fluid ounces
caught. 128 fluid ounces equals one gallon. EXAMPLE:
64 ounces caught in one minute.
64.0 ÷ 128 = 0.50 gallons/minute

Worn Nozzles & Flow Table Information
1. Determine nozzle size and desired spraying pressure using this application guide.
2. Find fluid ounces per minute (OPM) in Table3 or Table 4.
3. Catch flowat pressuredesired for1 minute{forlarge
nozzles catch the flow for 30 seconds and multiply
by 2}.
4. If the OPM caught are within the+limit in the chart
on page 31, the nozzle is accurate and G.P.A.
Charts should be followed.
5. If the nozzle is not within the+limit, check for obstructions or wear in the orifices of the nozzle. Take
thecapoff the nozzle, clean the orifices with a toothpick or brush and retest. If several nozzles test the
same, but are not within the+limits, a faulty gauge
may be the problem. If two or more nozzles are outside the limit, it is a good indication that all your nozzlesmay be worn. Inthiscase, it wouldbe advisable
to replace ALL the nozzles with new nozzles.

Let’s assume you are using TeeJet®XR8006 nozzles
and want to spray at 40 psi pressure. From the nozzle
chart at a 30" spacing, determine the desired speed of
travel.
If the value of 24.86 GPA is not an exact number shown
on the nozzle chart. Interpolation to find an exact figure
in needed. Interpolation is simple once you have an understanding of how it works {don’t be intimidated}. From
the XR8006 nozzle chart at 30" spacing and 40 psi
24.86 GPA falls between 29.70 GPAat 4 mph and 23.76
GPAat5mph.
GPA mph

Difference
Basically, you need to find the percentage that 24.86
GPA is between 23.76 GPA & 29.70 GPA.To do this,
take a factor of the differences.
24.86 - 29.70 = -4.84 = 0.81or 81%

EXAMPLE: It is desired to apply 22 GPA {gallons per
acre}ofnitrogen in 30" rows. {28% N, density is10.65lb/
gal from the chart above}
From theTable 5, “Density Conversion Table,”, the conversion factor is 1.13.
GPA {Solution} x Conversion Factor = GPA
(22 gal/acre) (1.13) = 24.86 gal/acre
To choose a nozzle and a pressure, use 24.86 gal/acre
on the nozzle charts.
500-061M
Inorder tofind the valueforthe mphthat is 81%between
4 mph & 5 mph, take the fraction 0.81 times the difference in miles per hour.
(0.81) (1 mph) = 0.81 mph
Therefore, the speed of travel needed is:
4 mph + 0.81 = 4.81 mph
From the same example, determine the pressure needed to spray at 5 mph. From the XR8006 chart at 30",
24.86 GPA fallsbetween 25.15 GPA at 45 psi and 23.76

Check Valve Restriction Data
OPM and GPM in the charts are shown at a PSI without
the use of restriction no-drip check valves.Note the
characteristics of the check valves below:
DiaphragmCheck Valvesmay cause =a2 to 3 PSI pressure drop at the nozzle. Catch nozzle flow to insure
accuracy.
If youare using a nozzle spacing differentthan 15", 20",
or 30", you will need to convert the values in the nozzle
charts to determine the correct GPAyou will apply.Multiply the GPA factors in the existing tables by the given
conversion factor for your nozzle spacing.
The 43.95 PSI value is the pressure you should attempt
to maintain on the pressure gauge. It is always a good
idea to interpolate. Attempting to guess what the value
should be, generally gives you an inaccurate result.
When using chemicals, ACCURACY IS CRITICAL.

General Field Adjustments
Boom Height
After calibrating your sprayer for the specific nozzle you
will use at a desired pressure, and tractor speed, the
main field adjustment is the boom height. Refer to "Man-
ual Elevator Option" on page 24. Depending on which
type of nozzle you are using, you need to set your boom
height so that you achieve the correct overlap for that
specific nozzle.If thecrop canopyis taller in some fields
than others, you will need to adjust the boom height accordingly. Refer to the nozzle charts located in this
manual to determine the height of the boom needed.
EXAMPLE: A 2.5 MeterCone nozzle at 20 inch spacing
isbeing used.Fromthe nozzlechart {refertosection4 of
this manual or the Application Guide}, a height of 19 to
21 inches above the top of the crop is required. If the
crop is 6 inches off the ground, the boom height should
be set to 25 to 27 inches off the ground.
After setting your boom height, there may be a need to
adjustthe foldlatch whenthe boomisready tobe folded.
Referto Figure 14 on page 25. If a hose fitting or nozzle
ispositioned wherethe foldlatch islocated, thefold latch
needs to be offset with the carrier extension provided.
The carrier extension can be mounted in the forwardor
rearward direction. After repositioning the fold latch, be
sure to torque bolts to the specifications listed in the
"Torque ValuesChart" on page 62. If boom height is in
the lower ranges, you may want to raise the boom for
transport. Refer to "Manual Elevator Option"on
page 24.
Solenoid Throttling Valve {Manual
Control System Only}
The electric solenoids used to turn on the individual
boomsectionsarethree way valves.These valvesroute
the flow to the boom sections or back into the tank, depending on whether the boom section switches on the
control box are turned on or off.
Whena boom section switchis turned to the offposition,
the electric solenoid forthat switch diverts the flowback
into the inlet of the pump. {Refer to "Plumbing Dia-
grams" beginning on page 22}. To insure that the flow
goingtothe boom section and the flow going backto the
inlet of the pump are the same, a throttling valve is used
to adjust the flow going to the inlet of the pump. If these
flows were not equal, every time the boom section
switchif flipped, the pressure will either rise or decrease
in the other boom sections, causing the sprayer to over
or under apply chemical in those boom sections.
Refer to Figure 18
1. Loosen the lock collar and adjust all three of the
throttling valves until they are closed.
Nozzle Pressure
Anotherarea thatwill need somefield adjustmentsis the
nozzle pressure. As your tank level decreases, youmay
have to adjust the boom pressure to keep the pressure
atthe same magnitude for whatthesprayerwas calibrated for if your sprayeris not equipped with a monitor.
Watchyour pressure gauge and be awareofchanges in
the pressure.
Tank Straps
The tank straps that wrap around the sprayer tank may
become loose after the first fewhours of operation. This
occurswhenthetank settles in the saddle. Polyethylene
tanks are especially susceptible to this. Retighten the
tank straps to secure your tank.

3. Turn the left boom section switch off and keep the
center and right section switches on. Unscrew the
throttling valve for the left boom section until the
pressure on the boom pressure gauge reaches the
calibration pressure. Flip the left boom section
switch a few times and adjust the throttling valve so
thatthe pressure remains at theselectedcalibration
pressure.
4. Turn the left boom section switch on. With the left
and right boom sections on, turn the center boom
section off and adjust the throttling valve as described in step 3.
5. Adjust the throttling valve for the right boom section
with the left and center boom sections on as described in step 3.
6. With all throttling valves adjusted, it should be possible to flip any combination of boom section switches with the pressure remaining constant.
Pressure Adjustments {Manual Control System Only}
Oneofthemost important areas of controlling the sprayer accuracy is to have the proper pressure when
spraying.The pressure is determined when the sprayer
is calibrated. Refer to "Calibration Procedures", starting on page 28.
down so the pressure is about 20 psi greater than the
pressure youwill spray at {the pressure the spray will be
applied at is determined when you calibrate your sprayer. Refer to "Calibration Procedures" on page 28}.
With this valve set, it will decrease the flow through the
electric ball valve and reduce the sensitivity of the pressure adjustment switch.
Elevator Slide Adjustment
Refer to Figure 19
The elevator slide is initially adjusted at the factory so
that the slide blocks have the correct tolerances between the blocks and the vertical elevator tuber. Over
time the blocks will wear and may need to be adjusted.
To adjust the slide blocks, adjust the slide block clearance bolts (1) so that the slide frame is centered and
parallel with the elevatorframe. Make sure all blocks
have 1/32 of an inch clearance between the block and
the vertical tube when finished.
Note: With the boom mounted, there will be 1/16 of an
inch clearance on the top rear and lower front blocks.
The other blocks will be touching the tube due to the
weight of the boom.
The electric ball valve is used to adjust the pressure to
the booms. It is controlled with the pressure adjust
switch on the control box. The boom pressure is displayed by the boom pressure gauge.
To adjust the pressure, hold the pressure adjust toggle
switch up for more pressure, down for less pressure. If
holdingthe switchup decreases pressure,reversewires
at the ball valve.Refer to Figure 10 on page 19 (8).
As the tank leveldecreases, the boom pressure may
change. Check your boom pressure gauge frequently
and make sure that the pressure doesn’t change. Generally, the boom pressure will need to be adjusted up
slightly when the tank level decreases.
When the manual pressure adjustment valve {refer to
"Plumbing Diagrams" beginning on page 22} is wide
open, the pressure adjust switch is very sensitive.Todecrease the sensitivity of the pressure adjust, set the
manual pressure adjustment valve.
To set the manual pressure adjustment valve, open the
electric ball valve wide open with the pressure adjustmentswitch.Shutthe manualpressure adjustmentvalve

Maintenance and Lubrication
Maintenance
Proper servicing and adjustment is the key to the long
life of any farm implement. With careful and systematic
inspection, you can avoidcostly maintenance, time and
repair.
Equipment Cleanup
Nozzles should be cleaned with a low pressure {less
than 30 psi} air hose, and periodically replaced. Haul a
supplytank of waterso you cancleanthe spraytank and
applicator out in the field. NEVER wash tank out in the
yard or at a car wash.
Dispose of leftover chemical in the same manner described on the manufacturer’s label of the chemical last
used in the sprayer. Rinse out the tank and spray the
rinse water on the last field that was sprayed.
Flushthe sprayerwith fresh waterand spraythewater in
thefield that waslast sprayed.Whilethe sprayerisbeing
flushed at the field, turn the boom section switches "on"
to flush the nozzles, then turn them "off" to flush out the
throttling valves and bypass lines {if equipped}. Repeat
this procedure several times. Periodically clean each
throttling valveby unscrewingits grayknob until it stops.
Flush it with the fresh water by operating the pump with
the boom section switches "off". Reset the solenoid
throttling valves as described in "Solenoid Throttling
Valve"on Page 51.
on the sprayer. To release the pressure flip the boom
section switches on an off without the pump running.
ALWAYS wear rubber gloves when making repairs or
adjustments. Make sure all "Personal Safety Equip-
ment" {gloves, goggles, etc.} listed on Page 5, are
stored in an easily accessible place but protected from
potential contamination from dust or chemicals.
Check the sprayerfor any loose bolts, pins, and hose
clamps.
Check the hoses, pumps, valves,and fittings for any
leaks.
Inspect all parts of the sprayer for wear and rust. Repair
and paint parts as necessary.
Pump Maintenance & Repair
This Great Plains pump is designed for long life and service.Through the years,there may be a need to replace
the mechanical seal or service some component of the
pump. A mechanical seal may weep slightly, but if it
starts to drip, the pump will have to be disassembled.
Beforeyoudisassemble thepump,besureto washit out
with fresh water.
The followingis an instruction list for how to reassemble
the pump after it has been disassembled and repaired.
Refer to the parts manual for the components of the
pump.
The boom pressure gauge has a ball valve that is used
to clean out any chemical that has built up under the
gauge protector. With the sprayertank full of water and
the pump running, open the ball valve and allow the water to run in a bucket. After the liquid coming out of the
hose turns clear, turn off the ball valve and dump the
contents of the bucketinto the sprayer tank.
General Information
If equipment is to be used in freezing or near freezing
conditions, protect pump and plumbing system by thoroughly draining liquid and pumping antifreeze {Great
Plains strongly recommends the use of recreational vehicle antifreeze} solution through the plumbing system.
Before working on, servicing or making adjustments on
sprayer, ALWAYS disengage power, shut off tractor en-
gine, make sure all moving parts have stopped, and all
pressure in the system is relieved.
Check the conditions of hoses and connections frequently.Releasethe system pressureBEFORE working
500-061M
Refer to Figure 20
If your pump is leaking, before you remove it from the
sprayer, runthe pump with adequate water in the tank to
diagnose the actual pump problem. If fluid leaks out between the front suction housing (5) and the rear volute
housing (8), the housing gasket may be dried out. Give
the gasket (6) adequate time to absorb moisture and
swellup.Ifnecessary,retighten thevolutehousing(8) by
alternating on opposite sides until all nuts (9) are
torqued to 16 - 18 ft.-lbs. It is a good practice to apply
grease to both sides of the gasket (6) to prevent
shrinkage.
If seal replacement is required:
1. Disassemble pump and clean all components.
2. Assemble the ceramic ring seat of the mechanical
seal (7) into the volute housing (8) of the pump.
Make sure the ceramic seat is positioned square
into the volute housing.

3. Clean offanygreaseordirtfrom the pumpshaft (10)
and dry the shaft so the rubber bellows on the mechanical seal will adhere to the shaft properly when
assembled.
4. Bolt up the pump input bearing housing (notshown)
to the volute housing (8) using bolts (2), (3) and (4)
with spacers (not furnished) for alignment and assembly of the shaft seal.
5. Assemble the seal (7) without its spring, on the
pump shaft by pushing on the inside rubber portion
ofthe seal using water as thelubrication. Thegraphite seal face should touch the white ceramic seat
face.Therubberbellows adhering tothe pump shaft
should not protrude more than 1/16" beyond the
stainless steel ring located on the impeller side of
the seal.
6. Assemble the seal’s spring and the impeller,being
careful not to move the mechanical seal that has
been positioned on the pump shaft. Torque the impeller bolt (1) 16 - 18 ft./lbs.
7. Remove the three bolts and spacers. Using gun
grease, lubricate the gasket (6). Assemble the gasket(6) and suctionhousing (5) using bolts,flat washers and locknuts. Torque nuts 16 - 18 ft./lbs.
