 RINSING EQUIPMENT BEFORE FIRST USE

Before using your sprayer for the first time with phytosanitary product (weedkillers,
insecticide or other product), rinse the machine completely.

- Remove the nozzles if they are fitted.

- Undo the end plugs on the pipes.
- Fill 1/5th of the volume of the tank with water.
- Spray (Refer to the pump OPERATION section).
- Remove and clean the filters.
- Retighten the pipe end plugs.
- Fit the nozzles.

- Any foreign particles which may be in the hydraulic circuit will thus be eliminated and there will be no risk of
them blocking the holes in the nozzles.

CHECKS TO BE CARRIED OUT EVERY TIME BEFORE

THE MACHINE IS USED
- Check the condition of the protectors on the drive shafts.
- Make sure that there is no foreign matter in the tank.
- Check the condition of the winch and the boom lifting cable or rope.
- Check the oil levels and the greasing of the various elements (see "lubrication and greasing" section).
- Check the cleanness of the filters:
- suction,
- delivery.

CALCULATING BOOM FLOW PER MINUTE

- To obtain the desired flow rate/minute for the boom, apply the following formula:
Volume hectare x Width treated x Forward speed
Boom flow = ------------------------------------------------------------------------
600

Example: We wish to spray 500 litres/hectare with a 12 meters boom and at a calibrated
tractor speed of 6.8 km/h.
500 x 12 x 6.8
We obtain: Boom flow per minute = -------------------------- = 68 litres/minute
600

- It is most important that maximum pump flow should satisfy the demands made on it for the desired spraying
conditions (advance speed, volume/hectare, width treated).
- The boom flow per minute should be 10 % less than maximum pump flow.

 ADJUSTMENT OF THE COMPENSATED RETURN
- The Carried MACK II (Autoregleur regulation) is fitted with a distribution block made up of electric flap valves
(V.E.C.) (1) (figure 1), for each boom section.
- These electric flap valves supply each boom section when they are in "open" position (spraying) and the
return to the tank when they are in "closed" position.
- They are located at the front of the sprayer.

ADJUSTMENT OF THE COMPENSATED RETURN

- Return to the tank is calibrated by means of a micrometric screw (2).
- Adjust the screw (2) to obtain the same pressure as at the pressure gauge, in both closed and opened
(spraying) positions. (Perform this operation for each electric flap valve).
- Use the electrical switches to open and close spraying.

 SAFETY VALVE
- The valve (figure 15) is fitted directly to the pump - The function of the safety valve is to prevent
discharge manifold. overpres-sure which could result in operation
- It is adjusted to 16.5 bar pressure. problems (liquid hammer).

filter cartridge (4).
(closed, the tank is isolated). Release the star knob
(3) and the filter is accessible.

DELIVERY FILTER
- This is located between the pump and regulation
valve.
- Provides additional filtration.
- To remove the filter cartridge (4/10° mesh) unscrew
the filter housing (6) (figure 18) using a 27 mm
spanner (not supplied with equipment).
- The filter cartridge should be cleaned after each
utilisation. Grease the seals.
Reminder:
The original filter cartridge mesh is 4/10 (8/10 mesh
is available separately for liquid fertilizer).

CLEANING THE FILTERS

- Place all valves in position 5 (figure 19) (the position of valve (E) is not important).

RINSING THE TANK (OPTION)

- Place all valves in position 7 (figure 19).

STIRRING
- Hydraulic stirring by non-sprayed liquid return to tank and HYDROMAX.

HANDWASH TANK
- For hygiene and convenience: a 18 litres water tank,
independent of the rinse tank; this allows washing
of hands and all body parts (face, eyes, ...) than can
be affected by spray product splashes.
- To use the tank, turn on tap (8) (figure 20) to the
setting that gives the required flow.
- A soap tray (7) is placed bearby.

MAINTENANCE OF PLASTIC VALVES

- Thick mixes used for treatments are either solutions,
suspensions or emulsions.
- The solvents present in the mixes can lead to the
expansion of some seals. This seems to the case
for plastic plug valves.
- If, despite appropriate maintenance, these valves
become blocked there is a quick remedy to this
problem :
Case of valves (R) (figure 21)
- Slacken flange (9) by 1/8 turn until the plug turns
normally, without special force being used.
Do not overslacken, to prevent leakage.

 DRAINING THE TANK
- Open valve (1) (located under the tank) in position (a) (figure 22).

FLOAT GAUGE (OPTIONAL)

- To release the graduated column (3) push part (2) in the direction indicated by arrow (figure 23).

2-SPEED REDUCTION GEAR FOR GAMA PUMP (OPTIONAL)

- This is used for low volume treatments (BETANAL) (figure 24)
- D outlet (direct takeoff) : speed of rotation = 540 rpm.
- R outlet (reduction gear): speed of rotation = 270 rpm.
- Oil capacity of reduction gear: 0.25 litre.
We recommend
- (4) filler orifice,
SAE 30 oil type
- (5) level,
MOBIL DTE EXTRA HEAVY or ELF POLYTELIS 150
- (6) draining orifice.

FILLER CANE
- To incorporate thick mixes during the filling operation.
- Puth cane (8) into the liquid to be sucked out and open valve (7) (figure 25).

CHASSIS STAYS
- Depending on sprayer model, retractable stays may be fitted to the chassis.
- For 1000 and 1200 litres (figure 26):
- Before parking the sprayer on a flat and stable area check that the stays (9) of the chassis have been
extended.
- During spray operations the stays (9) can be retracted under the sprayer chassis.
- For 1500 litres (figure 27):
- Pin (10) in position (A) or (B) = rest (depending on tractor hitch configuration).
- Pin (10) in position (C) = work.

RUNNING BOARD
- An anti-skid running board (11) (figure 28) gives safe access to the man hole.
- During treatment, retract the running board according to the arrow to avoid damage to the vegetation.

HYDRAULIC PIPERUNS
- When the equipment is taken down the hydraulic piperuns must be placed on a support (12) (figure 29) to
avoid any dirt.
- A neutral support is also provided for the plugs which must be kept clean and free from oxidation.

 HEIGHT OF THE BOOM
- 50 cm to 80 cm above the surface to be treated depending on the spray angle of the nozzles and their
spacing.
- If the boom is higher, there is a risk of drift.
- For less drift, use the air injection nozzles (see page 26).

FOAMING IN THE TANK

- If this occurs, reduce the PTO revs to less than 540 rpm or add an anti-foaming additive to the contents of the
tank when filling.

Do not add fuel oil to the spraying mixture as an anti-foaming agent.

LAST FILLING OPERATION

- When filling the tank for the last time, add only the amount of water and chemical necessary to spray the
remaining area.

RINSE TANK
- It is ESSENTIAL to fill the rinsing tank with
clear water through the cover (1) (figure 30), 1
without any pressure.

OF THE
SPRAYER

See also manual No. 82.471 "Safety, Checks, Maintenance".

37
 PRACTICAL RECOMMENDATIONS
FOR THE SERVICING OF YOUR SPRAYER
- By cleaning your sprayer regularly during and at the end of treatment campaigns:
- you will avoid spreading phytosanitary residues on the crops,
- you will ensure a good distribution of the product, while eliminating total or partial blockage of the
nozzles,
- you will increase your sprayer's life.

Carry out the sprayer's maintenance operations with

the engine switched off, the ignition off and the power take-off disconnected.

MAINTENANCE AFTER OPERATION

- It is also important to rinse the sprayer on the outside as well as the tractor.
- This cleaning is also essential on the same day between two applications of different products.

PROCEDURE
- Remove the filters.
- Fill the tank to 20 % full with water and add detergent (All Clear reference 771.053, 1 litre can or 778.886, 5
litre can).
- Operate the sprayer for a short period.
- Rock the sprayer by moving tractor forward and backward with a view to agitation water in the tank.
- Leave mixture to act for 12 - 24 hours.
- Start the agitation and advance and reverse the tractor several times, then empty using the drain valve or the
stopper.
- Put some clean water in tank.
- Unscrew a nozzle (remove insert and plug) at the end of each boom element.
- Rinse with clean water.
- Remove all nozzles and filters, and clean them.
- Reassemble.
- See section "Servicing the boom".

WINTER STORAGE
- The sprayer should be wintered in a clean condition (see above).
- Completely drain the liquid circuit, making sure that the pump is not operated too long without water (2
minutes maximum).
- Grease all mechanical parts that can rust.
- Deoxidize the contacts on the power plugs (BERTHOUD reference 765.065 the KF F2 aerosol).
- Clean the outside of the machine. Paint the mechanical parts exposed (BERTHOUD reference 769.077 for
the blue paint aerosol or 778.890 for the green paint aerosol).
- Garage the machine out of the sunlight and protected against inclement weather and on flat, load-bearing
ground.

38
 SERVICING THE BOOM
- After each use, rinse the pipework thoroughly, operating the machine for several minutes with clear water.
- Drain the pipework, particularly if there is a risk of frost.
- Keep the hinges on the arms, the bearing surfaces of the hinge cam and the uprights on the fixed frame
greased.
- After cleaning the boom with a high pressure sprayer, grease the cylinder shaft to avoid any risk of corrosion.
- Touch up the paintwork as necessary (BERTHOUD reference 769.077 for the blue paint aerosol).

For more information on the spray boom,

refer to the latter's technical sheet in the booklet's flap.

LUBRICATION AND GREASING

CHECK THE PUMP OIL LEVEL
- For GAMA 101/130 pumps (figure 31)
- The level must reach the notch on the gauge (1).
- Mark (2) : total draining of pump.
- Oil capacity of pumps
- GAMA 101/130 = 1.40 litre.
- GAMA 160 = 1.70 litre.

SAE 30 oil BERTHOUD reference 769.286 2 litre can.

PTO SHAFT
- For each use: GREASE + PIPES.

ELF EPEXA 2 or MOBILUX EP2 grease.

Change the oil every campaign.
