MT 600 PISTON INJECTION PUMP
INSTALLATION & SETUP
INSTALLATION
MOUNTING
The MT 600 injection pumps must be located as close as possible to the
point where the chemicals are injected into the main boom supply line. As
close to the delivery point as possible is the preferred injection point. A
consideration should be made to use check valves between the pump and
injection point as well as ahead of the injection point in the main flow
line (See the pluming diagram on page 6). Another consideration is the
location for the chemical containers must also be given, keeping the
distance between the MT 600 pump and the chemical container to a
minimum.
Once the location for the Legacy injection pump is selected, orient the
assembly so that the pump cover is easily opened, allowing access for
service. All sides of the pump may need to be accessible for service. The
pump must be mounted upright.
5oz of SAE 10w 30 oil must be added to each pump head via the red cap
port prior to operation. Oil should be visible and never overfilled
above 1/2 of the viewing window.
Figures 1 and 2 provide measurements to help you place the mounting
holes for the pumps.
The warranty printed above is the only warranty applicable to this purchase. Midwest Technologies’
warranty cannot be modified by any person or entity, including without limitation, any distributor or retailer
of Midwest Technologies. All other warranties, express or implied, including but not limited to, the implied
warranties of merchantability and fitness for a particular purpose, are disclaimed.
LIMITATION OF LIABILITY
It is understood and agreed that Midwest Technologies’ liability, whether in contract, in tort, under any
warranty, in negligence or otherwise, shall not exceed the return of the amount of the purchase price paid
by purchaser and under no circumstances shall Midwest Technologies be liable for special, indirect or
consequential damages. In particular, Midwest Technologies shall not be liable for damage to crops as the
result of misuse or negligence in the application of chemicals or operation of Midwest Technologies products.
The price stated for the equipment is a consideration in limiting Midwest Technologies’ liability. No
action, regardless of form, arising out of the transactions under this agreement may be brought by purchaser
more than one year after the cause of action has occurred.

NOTE: Secure each pump firmly to eliminate vibration and possible

PLUMBING
See the sample plumbing diagram on page 6 for suggestions on how to
plumb the system.
CABLING
Each MT600 injection pump comes with two cables, a pump control cable
and a pump power cable. See the sample system diagrams on pages 7 and 8
for suggestions on how the system should be connected.
Route all cables carefully, avoiding moving parts, excessive heat and
exposure to tree limbs, stubble, or other debris. Allow enough slack at
all pivot points to prevent pinching or stretching the cables.
Secure the cables in place with cable fasteners and/or cable clamps.
Pump Control Cables: When the injection pumps have been designated
#1 , #2, etc., Midwest Technologies suggests the cable tags be marked
accordingly (use a permanent ink - water proof marker). Carefully route the
cable to the console (TASC system) or Product Control Module (Legacy
system).
Pump Power Cable: Route each power cable to the vehicle battery (12
VDC only). Attach the red lead (fused) to the positive post and the black
lead to the negative post of the battery.

SELECTING PROPER P UMP SIZE
Use the following formula to determine the flow capacity requirements of
the pump; then check the Pump Size Selection Chart (Fig. 3) for the proper
pump size.
Pump Cap.= Max. Boom Width x Max. Speed x Chemical Rate x (.00202)
(Oz./Min.) = (Ft.) x (MPH) x (Oz./Acre) x (.00202)
Example: A sprayer with 35 ft. booms, traveling at a maximum speed of
14 mph and applying 1 quart of chemical per acre would require a maximum pump capacity of 31.67 Oz./Min. (i.e. 35 ft. x 14 mph x 32 oz./ac. x
.00202 = 15.8 oz./min.). Referring to the Pump Size Selection Chart we
find that a 1Pump Head pump would be sufficient for this rate. However, if
you needed to apply 100 oz./ac. of chemical, you should use the 2 Head
pump; (35 ft. x 14mph x 100 oz./ac. x .00202 = 98.98 oz./min. exceeds the
recommended range of the smaller 1 Head Pump).

CALIBRATION
Refer to your TASC 6300/6600, TASC 6500, or Legacy 6000 console user
guide for specific calibration instructions related to your specific console.
When you see a reference to placing a magnet on the motor control
module or PCM (Product Control Module), press and hold the Calibrate
switch on the MT 600 pump instead. You can record your system calibration numbers on page 10.
