    IMPORTANT

    LUBRICATION

  1. Pump is shipped filled with oil. At initial start-up and daily afterwards, check oil level.
  2. Single piston pump: Fill with TY6296 SAE 80/90 W EP gear oil or equivalent oil until level with check plug.
  3. Double piston pump: Fill both cavities with non-detergent SAE 30 oil until level with check plug.
  4. Fill pump lube fittings with multipurpose grease every 10 hours of operation.

    PREVENT DAMAGE TO PUMP

  1. Keep pump filled with fluid.
  2. Protect from freezing. (See following storage information.)
  3. Remove drive chain when not in use.

    OVERNIGHT STORAGE ABOVE FREEZING TEMPERATURES

  1. Clear liquids with steady or rising temperatures: Leave pump and hoses filled with solution.
  2. Clear liquids with falling temperatures (liquid and solids separate): Fill pump with water and leave filled (do not admit air).
  3. Suspension fertilizer: This system is not recommended for use with suspension fertilizers.

EXTENDED STORAGE (OVER 1 WEEK) INCLUDING WINTER STORAGE (Refer to FRAME DECAL AND OPERATOR MANUAL)

    IMPORTANT

    PUMP PRIMING

  1. Open shutoff valve at tank and strainer.
  2. Set pump to maximum rate
  3. High-pressure system with unit-mounted single disk fertilizer openers: Disconnect one opener hose unless using number 12 nozzles. Skip this step when priming a high-pressure system at application rate and travel speed for nozzle in use. High-pressure system with orifices: Remove one orifice unless using largest orifice. If available on system, loosen manifold valve . Low-pressure flow divider system: No action required.
  4. Partially fill tank with water and check system for leaks.
  5. Lower machine to planting position and drive 90—180 m (100—200 yd.) at planting speed.
  6. Fully charge system to eliminate all air bubbles. Air bubbles prevent even application. Repeat steps 5 and 6 until all air bubbles are flushed from lines.
  7. Remove strainer screen and check for foreign material. Clean as necessary.
  8. Reconnect hose, close valves, or install orifice removed in step 3.
  9. Select fertilizer rate using rate charts.
  10. For any delayed restart, check application lines for air bubbles and prime system as necessary.
