Cleaning Solution System
Check to see if special cleaning techniques are necessary. Sprayers must be cleaned whenever chemicals are changed or stored. Use of John Deere Spray Tank Cleaner is recommended. Always read and follow directions. If John Deere Cleaner is not available, flush the system as follows: 1. Mix household detergent with 95 L (25 gal) of water, circulate through system for 30 minutes, then drain. 2. Mix 0.95 L (1 qt) of household ammonia with 95 L (25 gal) of water. Pump enough of this mixture to fill the nozzles and let stand overnight. 3. Drain this mixture from system and flush with clear water. Take extra care to flush plugged ends of solution tubes on front fold boom (if equipped). |
CAUTION:
All spraying equipment should be decontaminated before being overhauled or placed in storage. Decontamination should be done in a safe area by washing with water, neutralization, or by means recommended by the chemical manufacturer.
