I. SAFETY PRECAUTIONS WARNING READ AND UNDERSTAND THESE SAFETY PRECAUTIONS BEFORE OPERATING MACHINE. 1. Engine and Fuel: This machine uses gasoline as the fuel for the internal combustion engine and all precautions commonly applying to this volatile fuel should be observed. Exercise extreme caution to avoid spilling of gasoline. If spillage occurs, wipe it off and allow evaporation time before starting the engine. DO NOT attempt to put fuel in tank while the machine is still running.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS - Continued 5. Safety Equipment: In addition to any safety equipment that may be required by the type of formulation which is being used, the following items should be with each unit during fogging operations: a. Fire Extinguisher, chemical type rated for fuel fires. b. First Aid Kit c. Eye Wash Solution d. Safety Glasses e. Container of Oil Dry Compound f. Gloves rated for High temperature g. Respirator adequate for formulation being used. 6.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS (Continued) B. Compressor: Before operating compressor, remove the oil fill plug and replenish the oil. Oil level should be maintained at the upper mark on the indicator. Oil level should be checked daily. Use only London Fog Anderol 500 or Amsoil Synthetic Reciprocating Compressor oil. Do not use petroleum oil as increased nozzle cleaning and maintenance will result. C.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS (Continued) Choke Engine; Manual choke, move lever as illustrated. Rewind starter. Grasp starter grip as illustrated and pull out cord rapidly. Repeat if necessary with choke opened slightly. When engine starts open choke gradually. D: To stop engine: Move stop switch to OFF position. E: Air Pressure: It is of the first importance that proper air pressure be maintained. Air pressure to the air tip should be 40-85 psi as indicated by the green area of the air pressure gauge.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS (Continued) NOTE: To remove the air cap loosen and remove the knurled nozzle ring (see figure M). Pull the air cap straight out and off of the fluid nozzle. It is not necessary to loosen or remove the fluid nozzle from the nozzle body when cleaning the air cap. (Non Remote Nozzle) If air pressure exceeds normal setting and the engine rpm has not increased above normal, a partial blockage may have occurred in the air cap of the aerosol nozzle assembly.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS (Continued) Use care not to over – tighten the fluid nozzle against its Teflon gasket so as to avoid extruding or damaging this gasket. Replace Teflon gasket (p/n 1013) if worn or damaged in any way. 3. FLOW RATES Rate of formulation flow is controlled by metering orifice located in the fitting at the top of formulation tank. (See figure o) A.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS (Continued) Using a larger orifice size will increase the formulation flow rate or keep the flow rate the same when using a more viscous material. NOTE: DO NOT USE METAL OBJECTS TO CLEAN ORIFICE OR SCREEN FILTER 4. CALIBRATION Since the nozzle used is an external mix siphon (suction) type nozzle, calibration must be made with the machine running. A. Disconnect the white nylon nut and fluid line from the nylon elbow fitting attached to the filter/orifice chamber.
Example: A 50,000 cu ft area is to be treated using 1 oz of formulation per 1000 cu ft. (50,000 cu ft) (1.0 oz/1000 cu ft) = 50 oz of formulation 10000 50 oz = 25 Min Application Time 2 oz/min (calibrated flow rate) B. Application a. Best results are obtained in the cooler hours of early morning or evening when there is a temperature inversion and the insects are most active. Ideal wind speed is between (3-7) mph. If wind speed exceeds (10) mph, it is not recommended to disperse insecticide. b.
MAINTENANCE (continued) Check to see that knurled nozzle ring is finger tight and that the fluid nozzle hex is tightened properly so that the nozzle seats air tight against the Teflon gasket and nozzle body. Check for air leaks at Teflon gasket with air pump running but insecticide turned off. E. NOZZLE OPERATING AIR PRESSURE Check pressure to air tip (40-85) psi as measured by air pressure gauge on the gauge panel. If pressure is incorrect, consult section III-2 E, page 10. F.
MAINTENANCE (continued) B. Compressor The air intake filter in the air pump cylinder heads should be cleaned or replaced. To remove air filters, remove the two bolts holding the filter cover in place and remove the filters. 3. EVERY (100) HOURS Perform all Daily and (25) Hours maintenance functions plus: Change engine spark plug. Use Champion CJ-8 or equivalent. Set spark plug gap at .030” (.76 mm). 4. EVERY (200) HOURS Perform Daily (25) hours and (100) hours maintenance functions plus: A.
PREPARATION FOR STORAGE (continued) or mineral seal oil. Flush system by operating unit until the above base oil is consumed. Finally drain any remaining base oil from the container. 2. ENGINE IF engine is to be stored over 30 days, prepare for storage as follows: A. Remove all gasoline from fuel tank to prevent gum deposits from forming on these parts and causing possible malfunction of engine. B. Drain fuel into approved container outdoors, away from open flame. C.
ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS (Continued) C. At the engine end of the chassis, mount an axle/handle bracket assembly on each side of the chassis. The handle pivot pins on the bracket should be located in toward the engine. The flare out portion of the bracket should be oriented towards the operator end of the machine. See figure B. Fasten the brackets to the chassis by inserting the (2) 1/4 – 20X 3/4 bolt through each bracket and the chassis. Fasten in place using lock washers and nut provided. Tighten firmly.
D. Push the axle through both of the axle/handle bracket assemblies and place a spacer (provided in parts envelope) onto each end of the axle. Slide a wheel onto each end of the axle and fasten in place by driving the axle hubs onto the axle. See figure C. E. Unpack the handle assembly. Using the bolts provided in the large handle section, mount the smaller top part of the handle to the larger bottom part (see figure D). Tighten wing nuts to hold in place. F.
Place one end of the handle over a handle pivot pin (see figure E). Pull the lower handle ends together and place other handle end over the opposite handle pivot pin. Lower the handle into a normal walking position until the handle lock pins snap into the axle/handle brackets.
