Draining and cleaning the tank, Application

Operating Hints

Should the actual value be too high, the metering body may be worn or damaged. In that case, replace the metering body with a new one (part no.:40 74 165).

When using accessory sets (liquid pump part no.: type 444 Î 44 00 114, type 450 Î 44 00 235 or ULV accessory, part no.: 49 00 479) a strainer will be integrated into the tank connector.

In that case, an incorrect flow rate can also be due to a contaminated or worn strainer.

Clean or replace the contaminated/worn strainer (part no.: 25 00 198).

7.7 Draining and cleaning the tank

For cleaning purposes, the tank can be fully drained into a suitable container via the supply hose.

For this, the engine must be cooled down.

Position the equipment onto a stable higher support, so that the spray medium can drain into a suitable container below.

Fig. 12

Above the container, pull the supply hose from the shut-off valve.

If required, tip the equipment slightly to drain the tank completely.

Ensure that the spray medium does not run over the equipment (especially the engine), but drains directly into the suitable container.

Dispose of residual spray medium correctly at disposal sites licensed for specialised waste.

Empty the spray medium tank daily after work and flush thoroughly with water.

Observe cleaning instructions supplied with the herbicide/fungicide.

After cleaning, let the spray medium container dry in an open state.

Occasionally clean the strainer inside the filler neck, the strainer in the accessory set and all parts in contact with the medium, with water and a soft brush.
