6. Use the INC/DEC switch to set an applica-
tion rate of 0.0.
B. Disconnect the flow control valve at the cable
disconnect. If the valve has failed in a position
that does not allow proper flow for a good spray
pattern at the nozzles, it will be necessary to
remove the electric actuator assembly and
manually rotate the valve stem to an suitable
position.
CAUTION. MARK THE VALVE POSI-

ROTATION.
For machines that use Mid-Tech's
EXR II hydraulic control valve to regulate the
pump speed, loosen the locking collar at the base
of the actuator, and rotate the complete actuator
until the desired boom pressure is achieved.
Retighten the locking collar.
C. Adjust the Boom Pressure:
1. Turn ON the desired boom sections
2. Using a nozzle chart, determine the boom
pressure that gives the desired application
rate at the target speed.
3. Adjust the pump bypass valve (if one is
provided) or manually turn the valve stem
to generate the desired boom pressure.
4. Turn all boom sections OFF.
D. Drive to the area to be covered. When the vehicle
reaches the starting point of the desired swath,
turn ON the appropriate Boom switches and the
sprayer starts to spray. At this point, the operator
is enjoying some monitoring functions of the
TASC 6100, but has no positive control of the
flow control valve.
E. Monitor Application Rate. Actual application rate
is displayed. Adjust the ground speed to maintain
the desired rate.

a temporary, emergency
procedure only. The
problem should be
resolved as soon as
possible to allow full

lished.
