Prepare Machine to Ship During Cold-Weather Months
IMPORTANT: Water freezing in tanks and lines can damage the
machine. When shipping the machine in cold-weather months, make sure
that the machine can withstand the lowest possible temperatures that
it is subjected. Avoid damage by emptying all solution
tanks and lines, and then adding SprayMaster Winterizer Fluid.
To add SprayMaster Winterizer Fluid to the machine spray system do the
following:
-
Add approximately 76—114 L (20—30 gal) of appropriate
mixture of SprayMaster Winterizer Fluid. Following manufacturers directions,
mix SprayMaster Winterizer Fluid at the correct ratio to protect the
solution system down to the lowest expected temperature.
-
Start machine and operate spray system until winterizer fluid
mixture comes out of spray nozzles. Be sure to circulate mixture through
the entire solution system, including optional devices (eductor and
fence row nozzles). Operate pressure valve in both bypass and tank
rinse positions.
-
Drain the following tanks:

N98449-UN-07MAY12
A - Rinse Tank Fill Valve
-
Rinse tank: Drain it through the rinse tank fill valve (A).
-
Clean water tank.
-
Leave note in the cab detailing what was done for winter protection.
So, the next person to use the machine will know what kind of preparation
is needed for field operation.
