SECTION 3 - SPRAYER OPERATION
B. TRACTOR MOUNTED SPRAYERS
1. Check bands securing tank for tightness.
2. Check all hose connections.
3. Inspect hydraulic hoses for damage and fraying.
4. Inspect sprayer mount for loose or missing fasteners.
3. LOAD SPRAYER
A. TRUCK MOUNTED SPRAYER
1. Retract jacks and remove. Lift rear of sprayer and pin legs in the up position.
2. Secure Skid with rear box locks provided at the two corners.
3. Make wiring connections per diagram on page 15.
a. one battery positive connection.
b. one battery switched and fused connection.
c. one ground connection.
4. To connect tip lift electrical system to pickup electrical system follow these steps:
a. Attach ground cable to the hole in pickup box using a 3/8” bolt and nut.
b. Route power cord to engine compartment and connect to positive battery terminal or main battery
power distribution source.
c. Connect single small RED wire to a SWITCHED and FUSED terminal in the pickup fuse box. This
may require additional wire.
WARNING!
POWER CORD MUST NOT CONTACT EXHAUST OR MOVING PARTS. THE CABLE HAS NO CIRCUIT PROTEC-
TION AND ANY DAMAGE TO THE CABLE INSULATION COULD RESULT IN PERMANENT BATTERY DAMAGE.
CAUTION!
DO NOT CONNECT RED WIRE TO ANY NON-SWITCHED TERMINAL. AN INCORRECT POWER SUPPLY WILL
PERMIT TIP LIFT OPERATION AT ANY TIME WITHOUT THE IGNITION SWITCH IN THE ON POSITION AND
COULD RESULT IN SERIOUS BODILY INJURY OR DAMAGE TO THE SPRAYER.
IMPORTANT!
TO PREVENT DAMAGE TO PLUMBING COMPO-
NENTS FROM FREEZING, THE SUCTION AND
AGITATION HOSES ON 3-POINT SPRAYERS
HAVE NOT BEEN CONNECTED. PRIOR TO
USING THE SPRAYER, THESE HOSES MUST
BE INSTALLED AND SECURED, WITH HOSE
CLAMPS, TO THE LOWER TANK FITTINGS.
HYDRAULIC TIP-LIFT
3-POINT SPRAYERS ONLY!
SAFETY TRANSPORT LOCKS (Part Number
8G7170, painted red) HAVE BEEN INSTALLED
ON THE TIP LIFT CYLINDERS TO PREVENT
POSSIBLE INJURY WHILE UNFOLDING THE
BOOMS BEFORE FULLY CHARGING THE CYL-
INDERS ON SPRAYER.
B. TRACTOR MOUNTED SPRAYERS
1. Connect sprayer to 3-point of tractor.
2. Secure 3-point latches.
3. Unfold booms to field position.
4. Remove Safety Transport Locks on dry boom
3-point only.
5. Connect TIP-LIFT hoses to tractor remotes.
6. Fully charge cylinders by raising each boom
slowly.
7. Hook up PTO pump if equipped.
8. Make other hydraulic connections.
HYDRAULIC PUMP NOTES:
Many tractor hydraulic systems route return lines through filters or other restrictive elements which can cause an increase in
return circuit pressure. Hypro’s hydraulic motor oil seals are designed to withstand 300 PSI continuous pressure. However,
whenever possible, it is recommended to utilize either a standard (or purchase an optional) low pressure return circuit. This
will allow for less oil heat generation, lower horsepower consumption, and longer oil seal life. Consult with your tractor manu-
facturer to see if your tractor is or can be equipped in this way.
The Return (or Tank) ports on Hypro hydraulic motors are equipped with an anti-reversing check valve. This is to prevent the
motor from accidentally being operated backwards. Backward operation of the motor will cause almost immediate oil seal
failure. Do Not Remove Check Valve.
HM2 and HM4 models of Hypro’s hydraulic motor driven centrifugal pumps can be equipped with a metering orifice in the inlet
port. The orifice is intended to be used on older model tractors with Closed Center systems that do not have flow control
