15 Preparation and Setup
4. Mount the quick-fill bracket (2) on the front of your
tractor so that the fill-coupler is easily accessed. You
may be able to place the quick-fill bracket in-be-
tween two tractor weights.
5. Cut a short section of 1 1/2" hose (3) and assemble
a second 1 1/2" hose barb tee (4) on the section of
hose. Fasten the hose with the #28 hose clamps
when finished.
6. Measure out and cut a section of 1 1/2" ID hose from
the tee (4) to the hose barb (5). Secure the #28 hose
clamps when finished. Use plastic cable-ties 6) to
secure the hose to the tractor. Make sure the hose
does not droop below the tractor where it could get
caught.
7. Attach another short section of 1 1/2" ID hose (7) in
between tee (4) and the tee assembly (8). Tighten
the #28 hose clamps.
8. Follow the “Tractor/PTO Pump Hook-Up” on
page 20 {if equipped} and mount the pump onto the
tractor.
9. Measure and assemble a section of 1 1/2" ID hose
from the tee assembly (8) to the pump with a 1 1/2"
hose barb elbow (9) just below the pump. The sec-
tion of hose in-between the hose barb elbow (9) and
the pump should be less than a foot long. Tighten
the #28 hose clamps.
10. Use cable ties (6) to secure the hose under the trac-
tor.
Plumbing & Controls Instructions
Refer to Figure 5
1. Measure the distance “A” to determine where the
tank union tee should be placed.
2. The length “B” and length “C” should be as follows:
Length “B” 75% of Length “A”
Length “C” 25% of Length “A”
!
CAUTION
Chemical Hazard
Make sure the tank union tee is assembled according to in-
structions. Failure to place the tee in the correct position may
cause water overflow out of a tank when filling the tanks.
Chemical residue previously in the tank could be exposed to
the environment if the fill-water is spilled.
Refer to Figure 6 on page 16
3. Assemble the 1 1/2" hose barb tank union tee (1)
with the correct length of 1 1/2" ID hose according to
the measurements you determined in step 2. It is
recommended to use petroleum jelly or some type
of lubricant in the inside diameter of the hose before
it is assembled on the hose barbs. It will make the
assembly much easier. Tighten the #28 hose
clamps after the hose is assembled.
