Filling the Flush Tank
The rinse/flush tank fills from the bottom of the tank and
uses a standard 2 inch Cam-Lock coupler
, located on
the valve control panel, to connect to the freshwater
hose.
The flush tank fill line is not connected to the sprayer
pump. A supply pump or pressurized water source is
required to fill the flush tank.
The tank lid is vented and does not need to be opened
for any tank operations other than inspection and clean-
ing.
To fill the flush tank:
Refer to Figure 31, page 38 and Figure 28 on page 40.
1.
Check that the hand wash tank is full.
2. Check that all shutoff and cleanout valves are in their
“normal” positions for field operations.
3. Close the ball valve at the flush tank inlet.
4. Set pump inlet selector valve to MAIN TANK.
5. Connect the supply hose to the quick-fill Cam-Lock
coupler.
Note: If using a positive-displacement pump, open the in-
let valve before starting the pump.
6. Turn on the water supply.
7. Open the quick-fill ball valve .
8. Stop filling by first stopping the pump, then closing
the inlet valve
.
Filling the Main Tank
Inspect Main Tank Quad Jets
The main tank has two 4-port nozzles at the bottom. A
portion of the materials to be applied are recirculated
through these jets to evenly mix the chemicals and keep
insoluble components in suspension.
Before adding water to the main tank, inspect the quad
ports to see that their nozzles point toward the tank cor-
ners.
If the nozzles are not correctly aligned, see “Quad-Jet
Agitators” on page 69 for adjustment instructions. Fol-
low the instructions carefully, as tank entry may be
required, and can be extremely hazardous.
