Thank you for having chosen UNIGREEN. The product you purchased has been designed and built with the greatest attention to the safety of the operator and the environment, nevertheless there are still some residual risks due to the nature of the product used. For this reason we recommend reading all of this manual to avoid making mistakes in the first period of use and to get the most out of the working life of the sprayer in time, doing the programmed maintenance at regular intervals.

Person exposed: any person who has their body or any part of their body in a dangerous zone.
2.1 INTENDED USE The sprayer in this series is built for agricultural use. The materials used are resistant to normal chemical products used in agricultural spraying (or herbicides) at the time of construction. Any other use is not allowed and the manufacturer is not responsible for any damage caused by aggressive, dense or sticky chemicals.
Refer to the enclosed handbooks for the use and maintenance of the pump and pressure regulator and any accessories or motors. b) Please contact the agent in your zone, the nearest authorised workshop or UNIGREEN S.p.A. directly for any repairs the user feels they aren’t capable of performing alone. (see point 8.4) c) Due to the complexity of the equipment and the variety of technologies used (mechanical, hydraulic, oil-pressure and electrotechnical) operators must not dismantle or modify the equipment.
3.2 NOISE LEVEL OF THE MACHINE Use earmuffs to protect your ears when using the machine, below you will find the data on the maximum noise levels during work. Atomisers with centrifugal fan rotor (Turboteuton) ACOUSTIC POWER LEVEL emitted by the machine: 123,8 dBA in 2nd gear ACOUSTIC POWER LEVEL AT THE OPERATOR’S POSITION emitted by the machine: 103,2 dBA in 2nd gear Readings taken in accordance with the following standards: Machines Directive 98/37/CE (89/392 CE Dir. re-codified). Legislative Decree D.
4.2 PRELIMINARY CHECKS When you receive the machine, check that it is complete and no parts are missing. If there are any damaged parts, inform your local reseller or UNIGREEN directly in good time. When the machine is delivered, make sure you ask: a) that the machine is delivered with all of its parts fitted and that the fitting meets the requisites in table N° 17a (pages 34). This procedure is necessary because for reasons of space during transportation the machine is often delivered partially dismantled.
4.4 TRACTOR COUPLING The tractor must have 1”3/8 ASAE DIN 9611/A power-takeoff that runs at 550 rpm. It must have a 3-point elevator suitable for safely supporting the weight of the atomiser. Check this by consulting the table of allowed fittings N° 17a (pages 34). WARNING: make sure there are no persons or things near the atomiser before starting the machine and while you are using it. FIG.4 Attacco alla Trattrice 4.4.
4.5 CARDAN SHAFT In some models this is supplied on request. The cardan shaft must bear the CE mark. It must always have its own instructions that must be followed scrupulously and it should come with a cover bearing the mark, integrated in every part.
Don’t use the sprayer without having consulted the enclosed handbook. 4.8 PRESSURE REGULATOR To use the pressure regulator, follow the instructions in the enclosed handbook scrupulously. The pressure regulator controls all of the most important spraying functions, the thorough knowledge of its functions makes work easier and more precise.
= adjust maximum pressure valve B to the working value (in any case less than the safe maximum pressure the system can reach). Pressure regulators with a volumetric valve (GCP ELETTRICO) Adjusting the maximum pressure valve = put main control A in the drain position (“OFF”). = loosen the hand wheel of maximum pressure valve B completely (anticlockwise). = open volumetric valve E completely.
4.10 FILLING THE TANK The machines for defensive crop treatments, in consideration of the safety of persons, animals and the protection of the environment, must only be filled indirectly from open water courses and only by free-falling water from the waterworks. The pipe used for filling must never come into contact with the liquid inside the tank and therefore the water must always fall over the upper edge of the filling inlet and through the filter installed on it.
4.12 MIXING The active principle can be mixed using the relevant stirrers before and during the treatment. Correct mixing and stirring is the basis of the correct distribution on the crops. We recommend some useful accessories such as the premixer for powders and liquids (see the following paragraph). The machines in the Airdrop-MFC range can be equipped with 2 hydropneumatic agitators, supplied by the relevant taps in the auxiliaries taps block (paragraph 4.9).
4.13 WASHING THE ATOMISER After every treatment, thoroughly clean the equipment, washing it with water inside and out. Dirty equipment is very dangerous for people and in particular for children. Discharging the residues of washing in the environment without taking precautions is forbidden as this pollutes water courses. Distribute the residues on the field or the crops where they won’t cause any damage. WARNING: the indications to follow for using chemical products are indicated in paragraph 2.2.1. FIG.
5 BLOWER GROUP All the mistblowers have a high speed fan rotor. You must take great care and beware of the effects that this can provoke: such as the aspiration and projection of foreign bodies which, although of a small size, can be very dangerous especially for the eyes and face. 5.1 MULTIPLIER - FAN UNIT The Airdrop range is fitted with two versions of a Ø500 centrifugal fan: STD (max absorption 30 HP) and XP (max 50 HP).
5.3 DISTRIBUTOR ACCESSORIES Various configurations of accessories or distributors are fitted to the outlet of the fans. At present these are: Polipo - Super Spalliera - RV GDC WARNING: for all adjustments, always observe the safety indications in the chapters relevant to maintenance and repair of this manual, as well as paragraph 2.3.1 relevant to the use of chemical products. POLIPO SPALLIERA 5.3.
5.4 HYDRAULICS The RV, VL, VLX, FXF and FXL model distributor accessories have hydraulics that can be controlled by the operator directly from the seat in the cab. Check that no one and nothing is in the area where the booms will open; particular attention should be paid to the presence of any electric power lines. The hydraulic plant can be fed from the hydraulic pump of the tractor.
6 SPRAYING WARNING: the indications to follow for using chemical products are indicated in paragraph 2.2.1. FIG. 18 FIG. 19 6.1 DESCRIPTION OF THE DIFFUSERS The distributor accessories of the TurboTeuton range are equipped with variable diffusers (FIG. 18) so you can direct the airflow (and consequently the treatment) onto the vegetation to treat on the basis of your needs. According to the configuration of the accessory the diffusers have outlet mouths with different shapes and sections.
6.3 CALIBRATING TURBO TEUTON The tables on pages 26-31 let you easily calculate the distribution in litres/ hectare of the mistblowers with the standard fittings, proceeding as indicated below: a) Choose the table relevant to the blower group of the mistblower in question (the main reference is the number of jets) b) Find the distance between the rows of the vegetation and the diameter of the nozzles used (ceramic plates, TR or TXA).
FIG. 22 A B C 7 HAND LANCES When using hand lances bear in mind the following notes: = Don’t direct the jet of liquid towards electric power lines or zones where there is electrical current, houses or where people might pass. = Don’t point the jet at people or animals. The jet can cause serious injuries simply due to the mechanical force of the liquid under pressure. = Never block the spraying lever of the lance in an open position because if the lance falls it will be uncontrollable.
overheating. This lubrication can be done with grease or oil: oil allows significantly higher speeds, in general grease is used to lubricate bearings with a vertical or inclined axis as it stays in the zone for longer. 8.2.3 MULTIPLIER LUBRICATION The multiplier and disengaging boxes are normally lubricated in an “oil bath”, in special cases NLGI n.0 grease is used.
the instructions in the present user’s handbook and in the enclosures of the pump, pressure regulator and accessories. 8.7 DEMOLITION AND DISPOSAL When the sprayer will be put out of service you should wash it with great care to remove any residues of chemical product, follow the instructions in point 4.13 of the present handbook. ATTENTION: It is necessary to adopt appropriate Individual Protection Devices in manipulating waste.
