Attachment
Before attachment, ALWAYS ensure the following:
•
All safety guards & decals are in good working order and correctly fitted
•
Lubrication points have been lubricated as per scheduled maintenance period
•
The tyres are free of damage and inflated to the correct pressure
•
Electrical connections are free of dirt or moisture
•
Battery is suitably charged for the work required
NOTE: This machine is designed to attach to the towing vehicle through a 50mm diameter ball hitch.
1.
Reverse the towing vehicle up to the machine.
2.
Attach the machine onto the towing vehicle's coupling. Raise jockey wheel and secure in the upper position. On some vehicles the
jockey wheel can collide with the rear of the towing vehicle over rough terrain – if this is the case remove the jockey wheel from the
clamp before using on such terrain.
3.
Attach the control box to the towing vehicle in a safe and secure location, ensuring the control cable is routed safely where it cannot
snag.
4.
Check battery charge levels and oil levels and top up if necessary.
ENSURE CONTROL EQUIPMENT IS SECURELY ATTACHED TO THE TOWING VEHICLE
Initial Set-up
Sprayer Pressure
The Weed Wiper has been factory pre-set with clean water to operate at the correct pressure for nozzle atomisation - different herbicides or
wetting agents may affect the viscosity, and as such the pressure may need to be adjusted. The pressure regulator and gauge are located on top
of the sprayer tank - with the rear guard removed, adjust the pressure such that the nozzles are atomising the spray - this will normally be around
2.75-3.5 Bar (40-50 psi) on the gauge.
Height
Hitch the weed wiper up to the towing vehicle, adjust the height of the wiper roller to the desired level by rotating the height adjustment jack to
raise or lower as required. The height should be set so that the roller contacts as much of the weed as possible without contacting the underlying
grass sward. The more contact that can be made with the weeds, the greater the chemical take-up and the better the wiping result!
Initial Test Operation
In order to familiarise the operator(s) with the machine, first fill the spray tank with clean water, and test operation using water only. The
objective is to apply enough liquid to fully wet the applicator whilst moving through the weeds, without overloading to such a point as the
applicator drips onto the sward below. Once the operator(s) are familiar with the machine and operation, the tank can be drained and refilled
with water / herbicide as per the herbicide manufacturers recommendations.
