Safety at All Times
Thoroughly read and understand the instructions
in this manual before operation. Read all instruc-
tions noted on the safety decals.
▲ Be familiar with all sprayer and boom func-
tions.

▲ Do not leave sprayer or boom unattended with
tractor engine running.
▲ Use only water without pesticides added to
calibrate the sprayer.

and pressure when operating.

ing a moving tractor could cause serious injury
or death.
▲ Do not stand between the tractor and boom
during hitching.
▲ Keep hands, feet and clothing away from
power-driven parts.
▲ Wear snug-fitting clothing to avoid entangle-
ment with moving parts.
▲ Watch out for wires, trees, etc., when folding
and raising boom. Make sure all persons are
clear of working area.
▲ Turning tractor too tight may cause sprayer to
ride up on wheels. This could result in injury or
equipment damage.
▲ When using a PTO pump, be sure that PTO
shield is in place on the tractor, PTO coupler
bolts are torqued to the correct specification,
and torque bar is properly chained to tractor
drawbar.
▲ Spray with the boom in the unfolded position
only.
▲ Do not modify the boom for use with sprayers
other than Great Plains units. Do not modify
boom for use with tillage attachments. Do not
mount the boom on a tandem-axle sprayer.
▲ The boom has many pinch points during field
operation and folding. Keep all bystanders
away.
