4INSTRUCTIONS

To use the machine the personnel must be suitably trained on the basis of the regulations in force on safety and hygiene at work.

THE USE OF THE MACHINE FOR PERSONS UNDER 18 YEARS OF AGE IS STRICTLY FORBIDDEN

4.1DESCRIPTION OF THE MACHINE

The mistblowers consist of a structural steel frame and a polyester tank reinforced with fibreglass or high-density polyethylene. The frame is hot-galvanised. The tank is easy to empty and this makes it possible to use the machine even on hillsides.

The pumps are generally diaphragm pumps but in some cases they are fitted with pistons. The accessories for completing the fitting, non-drip jets and ceramic nozzles make the UNIGREEN mistblower a highly qualified and efficient piece of equipment.

4.1.1 WORK STATIONS

The use of this machine does not envisage an operator standing constantly near the same, the operator normally sits in the cab of the tractor.

During calibration and maintenance operations the operator will be working near the machine at ground level (for all the calibration and maintenance operations refer to the relevant chapters).

In some special models with controls above 1.5 metres there is a platform to make these operations easier.

This platform must only be used with the machine stopped.

4.1.2 HAND WASHING TANKS

The mistblowers are supplied with an auxiliary hand-washing tank with clean water and a hand tap.

This tank must always be supplied with water and the inside must be clean so you can wash any parts of the body that come into contact with the chemical product used.

Never drink the liquid inside.
