Any other use is not allowed and the manufacturer is not responsible for any damage caused by aggressive,
dense or sticky chemicals.
THE USE OF THE MACHINE BY PERSONS UNDER 18 YEARS OF AGE IS STRICTLY FORBIDDEN
The use of liquid fertilizers in suspension is not allowed, while the use of the same in a solution is possible if
requested when the machine is ordered from AGROSE and in any case changing some of the parts described
in the handbooks of the regulator, such as the manometer (stainless steel), the nozzles (large diameter
ceramic) and eliminating the fine mesh filters to prevent blockages.

4
2.2. PROHIBITED USE
Using the machine with the following products is strictly forbidden:
Paints of any kind and type
Solvents or thinners for paints of any kind and type
Combustibles or lubricants of any kind and type
LPG or gas of any kind and type
Flammable liquids of any kind and type
Liquid foodstuffs, whether for animals or humans
Liquids containing granules or consistent solids
Mixtures of various incompatible chemical products
Liquid fertilizer or manure in suspension with lumps and/or that is particularly dense
Liquids with a temperature of over 40°C
Any products that aren’t suitable for the specific use of the machine.
2.3. USING CHEMICAL PRODUCTS
All pesticides or herbicides can be dangerous to humans and the environment if used erroneously or
inadvertently.
Therefore we recommend that only suitably trained persons should use these products (license) and in any
case only after having carefully read the instructions on the container.
2.3.1. REGULATIONS FOR THE USE OF CHEMICAL PRODUCTS
Some recommendations for avoiding
damage and accidents:
Keep the machine in a suitable,
protected place with no access
for children or strangers
Handle the products with care,
wearing rubber acid-proof
gloves, goggles face masks or
filtering helmets, overalls made of water-repellent fabrics and boots made of rubber or similar
materials.
If chemical products or mixtures of product come into contact with the eyes or are swallowed consult
a doctor immediately, taking the label of the product with you.
Wash all clothes that come into contact with the chemical, whether diluted or undiluted, thoroughly
before using them again.
Don’t smoke, drink or eat when preparing or spraying the mix or near or in the fields treated.
DON’T ENTER THE TANK: The residues of a chemical product can
cause poisoning and suffocation.
When spraying, respect safe distances from residential areas,
watercourses, roads, sports centers and public parks or paths.
Thoroughly wash the containers of plant protection products using the
relevant accessories, rinsing several times with clean water. The liquids
used for washing can be used for treatment.
Collect the washed containers and send them to the relevant collection
centers. Never dispose of them in the environment and don’t use them again for any other purpose.
It is good practice to knock a hole in the bottom of the tins so they can’t be used again.
When you have finished spraying, wash the sprayer thoroughly, diluting the residues with a quantity
of water at least 10 times that of the residues, spraying the resulting mix over the treated field.

2.3.2.RECOMMENDATIONS
a) Follow the instructions in this manual for the use and maintenance of the frame, tank, multiplier, turbo
atomizer groups and robotic head / radial cannon.
b) Please contact the agent in your zone, the nearest authorized workshop or AGROSE directly for any
repairs the user feels they aren’t capable of performing alone.
c) Due to the complexity of the equipment and the variety of technologies used (mechanical, hydraulic, oil-
pressure and electro technical) operators must not dismantle or modify the equipment. All of the relevant
operations must be performed by specialized personnel, authorized by AGROSE.
Use under adverse and not recommended conditions can
compromise the integrity of the equipment and components,
entailing loss of warranty and disclaimer by the manufacturer for
any accident and the resultingconsequences.
Avoidparkingtheequipmentonslopes.If necessary, placechocks
under the wheels when parking the equipment on upward or
downward slopes.
Keep the ladder, platform and handle always clean; oils and
greases can cause accidents.
Donot usethe equipmentif somecritical component needs to be
repaired. Provide for the repair before.
This equipment can cause accidents if used improperly or irresponsibly.
Do not step on the machine while it is moving.
TAKING PRECAUTIONS AGAINST FIRE HAZARDS
Don’t use naked flames or heat sources near the machines.
The atomizers are made with many materials that derive from petroleum: tanks, tubes, pipes and hoses,
wheels and plastic parts; furthermore the presence of oils of various nature and residues of chemical products
make them potentially flammable.
WEATHER CONDITIONS
We recommend spraying in the early hours of the morning or late in the
afternoon, avoiding the hottest time of day.
Never do any spraying if it’s raining or rain is forecast.
Don’t spray in strong wind or in any case, in winds above 3/5 m/second.
If you have to spray in windy conditions, use relatively low pressures to
obtain quite large drops that are less sensitive to drifting (being heavier
the wind has less effect). There are also special anti-drift nozzles
available from AGROSE; for information, please contact our offices.

MACHINES DESIGNED TO BE USED ONLY WITH CLEAN WATER
There are versions of the machines designed only to be used with a
hose reel for washing with cold clean water.
These machines cannot be used with chemical products as they don’t
have some of the devices or accessories that are needed to use these
products safely.
These machines are identified by the word “washing” on the CE plate.
DRIVING ON THE ROAD
The towed atomizers are not specifically designed for road use. Never the less, many models are also
available in the version homologated for road traffic with the tank empty.
You should check with your local reseller on the correct couplings to use and use tractors that meet the
regulations in force.
2.4.CHARACTERISTICS AND SPECIFICATIONS
This handbook is valid for mounted atomizers with axial fans for phytosanitary treatment in orchards
andvineyards, in any case for arboreal cultivation in rows of varying natüre and type.
It is also valid for robotic head / radial cannon atomizers for the phytosanitary treatment of tall plants and
forest trees such as poplars or similar.
The axial atomizers produce a mixed spray, breaking the drops with the pressure and the speed of the
air produced by the fan.
These atomizers produced by AGROSE are identified by the CE plate bearing one of the marks indicated
in the tables of the allowed fittings.

3. USER’S INSTRUCTIONS
DESCRIPTION OF THE MACHINE
The atomizers consist of a structural steel frame and a polyester tank
reinforced with fiberglass or high-density polyethylene. The frame is hot
galvanized.
The tank is easy to empty and this makes it possible to use the
machine even on hillsides.
The pumps are generally diaphragm pumps but in some cases they
are fitted with pistons.
The accessories for completing the fitting, non-drip jets and ceramic
nozzles make the AGROSE atomizer a highly qualified and efficient
piece of equipment.
HAND WASHING TANKS
The atomizers are supplied with an auxiliary hand-washing tank with clean water and a hand tap.
This tank must always be supplied with water and the inside must be clean so you can wash any parts of
the body that come into contact with the chemical product used.
Never drink the liquid inside.
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 AGROSE 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° 3A-3B-This procedure is necessary because for reasons of space during transportation the machine
is often delivered partially dismantled.
b) That it is tested in your presence in particular checking:
That the suction filter and the inside of the tank are clean and free of work residues.
That the connections are made correctly following the basic layout (PICTURE 14).
That the hose clips and all the unions and connections are tightened properly.
That all of the protective covers are fitted solidly to the machine, in particular the protective cover of the
power-takeoff of the pump.
That the multiplier is sufficiently supplied with lubricant
oil.
That the zone where the fan turns hasn’t been bent
by knocks during transportation.
For Movement and transportation the use of the trucks
or ramps is recommended, taking care for it to be fully
fastened to prevent accidents due to poor positioning.
Under no hypothesis operate the equipment without
its protection covers or the protection cover on the
drive shaft
Equipment fastening to the cart or truck shall be
performedbythetyingpoints(see figure below). Any tying carried out atrandom,whileappearingtobesafeand
secure, is extremely dangerous and can cause seriousaccidents.Ifindoubt,contactus.

4. TRACTOR COUPLING
Refer to the tractor user manual before performing
this operation.
Turn off the tractor diesel engine, apply the parking
brake and remove thestarting key from the contact
keyhole before couplingthe PTOshaft to the tractor
PTO.
Try to couple the PTO shaft to the tractor PTO. If
necessary to adjust the PTOshaft length, use the
PPEs specific to this operation such as: goggles,
gloves,boots,etc.
WhencouplingthePTOshafttothetractor,make
surethatthesafetypinissecurely locked.
After length adjustment, clean and lubricate the PTO shaft components. Wear safety gloves for this
operation too.
Never use a PTO shaft not fitted with shroud.
Do not perform adaptations for reutilization of the PTO shaft.
Fasten the PTO shaft covering safety chain to the tractor; that chain will prevent the PTO shaft covering
from turning together with the PTO shaft.
Before actuating the tractor PTO, fill the main reservoir It must have a 3-point elevator suitable for safely
supporting the weight of the atomizer. Check this by consulting the table of allowed fittings Tables N° 3A-
3B
WARNING: make sure there are no persons or things near the atomizer before starting the machine and
while you are using it.
4.1. THREE-POINT COUPLING
a) We recommend carefully checking that the tractor is suitable for supporting the weight of the fully
loaded Sprayer safely. The total weight of the Sprayer with all of its accessories and fittings is indicated
on the name plate in PICTURE. 1 and also (in the version with the maximum fittings allowed ) in Tables
N° 3A-3B
For verification use the formula shown here.
Non-observance can result in a very dangerous situation as the tractor will löse steering sensitivity and
can tip over when driving up hill or over bumps.
b) Check the diameter of the elevator coupling pins. If necessary position the double diameter pins
correctly; there are also appropriate adapter bushes available.
c) Adjust the length of the third point tie-rod correctly so the sprayer is perfectly vertical in normal working
position.
d) Check for the presence of the safety pins that stop the arms of the tractor jumping off the connecting
pins.
4.2. HYDRAULIC CONNECTION TO THE DISTRIBUTORS
Machines that need a hydraulic connection to drive the movements of the robotic head / radial cannon
are equipped with 1/2", “Push-Pull”, quick-fit male couplings. You can connect the pipes bysimply pushing
them in, making sure you:
Do so only with the engine turned off;
Lower any tools connected to the elevator of the tractor;
Carefully clean the two parts that will be coupled
WARNING:The hydraulic cylinders used are the “Double Effect” type.
Consult the use and maintenance manual of the tractor.

12
4.3. 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.
You should have previously checked the length to avoid:
If it is too long, DANGEROUS THRUST ON THE PUMP SHAFT
If too short, the POSSIBILITY OF DANGEROUS BREAKAGES
THE MINIMUM OVERLAP OFTHE TWO TELESCOPICTUBES MUST NEVER
BELESS THAN 1/3 OF THELENGTH OF THE TUBES.
AdjustiNg the PTO shaft male and female tubes;
Position the tractor until its rear tire gets close to the sprayer’s tongue.
Connect the PTO shaft.
Adjustthemaleandfemaletubeslengths (recommended overlap: 1.96 in).
The power that can be transmitted by the cardan shaft must be at least equal
to that required to run the atomizer.
These power ratings are indicated in Tables N° 3A-3B-(pages 26-27)
a) Hook any safety chains to solid anchor points
b) Check that the button or ringnut “E” (PICTURE. 6) is correctly engaged and blocked both on the
pump side and on the tractor side.
c) Don’t exceed an inclination of 30° in any direction for any reason
d) With the machine stopped, periodically grease the spiders and the pipes, keeping the connecting zone
particularly clean
e) Avoid letting the end of the cardan shaft come into contact with the ground with the machine stopped;
use the relevant support on some versions for this, if your machine has no support, hook the external
safety chain to apart of the frame of the machine (ex. control unit support).

NEVER USE THE CARDAN TRANSMISSION IF THE FOLLOWING PROTECTIVE COVERS
ARE MISSING:
TRACTOR POWER TAKE-OFF PROTECTIVE COVER
CARDAN SHAFT PROTECTIVE COVER
FIXED PROTECTIVE COVER ON THE PUMP SHAFT
4.4. PUMP
When using the pump scrupulously observe the instructions in the enclosed handbook supplied by the
manufacturer.
The pump can be identified by the ratings plate on the same; the main data on the
pressure and delivery are easy to find on this plate.
Normally the pumps mustn’t exceed 540 RPM; a higher speed won’t improve
performance but there is a risk of compromising the life and safety of the pump.
There is a safety valve on the pump, calibrated to prevent overpressure. Don’t
tamper with this valve for any reason and don’t block or obstruct the pipes
connected to it in any way.
4.5. SUCTION FILTER
An efficient filter lets the Sprayer work properly.
You should periodically check that the filter cartridge is clean,
this check should be done more often if the reare impurities in
the liquid. To inspect the filter cartridge wear rubber acid-pro
of gloves as the liquid in the filter can come into contact with
your hands when you open the filter.
Don’t perform this operation with the pump running as the
depression produced blocks the cover preventing the
removal.
Before removing the cover of the filter, make sure that the
same is isolated from the tubing by unscrewing the relevant rear valve (PICTURE N°9).
After washing the cartridge, reassemble the covermaking sure you connect the same to the circuit again,
using the valves described above in the opposite order.
WARNING: Don’t disperse the washing residues in the environment!!
PICTURE 8
PICTURE 9
When maneuvering, disengage the PTO and keep the tire from
touching the sprayer’s tongue, otherwise this will damage the sprayer’s
transmission.
NOTE:
Before cutting the PTO shaft tubes, check for all the possibilities of adjustment
on both tractor’s drawbar and sprayer’s tongue. Make sure the hitchpin is mounted
with cotter pin.

14
4.6. PRESSURE REGULATOR
MTS-401 R MTS-100 BY MTS-50 R-3
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.
The working pressure and the maximum pressure of the Sprayer are determined by the pressure regulator
which also protects the circuit from over pressure in any work conditions. (Inserious but very rare cases,
if the connecting pipes get blocked the pressure relief valve lets the pressure off)
In some setups there may be a pump that can reach a pressure of 50 bar controlled by a regulator
designed for 20 bar. In this case the maximum pressure that can be reached is 20 bar.
The regulators can be manual, mounted on the Sprayer or at a distance to make the controls easier to
use; or electrical with a control panel in the cabin.
The reare also regulator versions with mechanical remote controls with a cable.

5. 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
water works.
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 in let and through the filter installed on it.
The tank is fitted with a transparent graduated band that shows the exact
quantity of liquid inside. This reading is precise if the tank is on flat ground;
the actual total capacity coincides with the highest number. All the filling
systems fitted by Agrose on their production machines or on request are
antipollution and stop the liquid overflowing out of the tank.
a) FILLING WITH THE SUCTION FILTER
If the 3-way deviator isn’t fitted you can fill the tank using the of the
filter and using a G1"1/2 threaded union, connect pipe T with the
floating filter to the coupling.
Also in this case the filling speed in liters /minute is equal to the
delivery of the pump.
b) FILLING WITH THE FITTING EJECTOR
If you are filling with an Fitting ejector (mounted as standard on some
models) then you should proceed as follows:
Put roughly 20-30 L of water in the tank and start the pump.
Remove the cap of ejector E and insert filling pipe T.
Place the other end of the hose, on which you fitted filter G, in the
watering point.
Open the tap that supplies the ejector (on pump P or pressure
regulator C).
Increase the pressure until it reaches a value which is sufficient to
suck up the liquid.
Visually check the level of the liquid inside the tank and after filling
Disconnect pipe T from the ejector, close the tap and
replace the cap.
6. TEST WITH CLEAN WATER
It is good practice to do a test with clean water (without
chemical product in the tank) before the first treatment to
make sure the atomizer is working properly and to get to
know the controls. For instructions on how to proceed with
the treatment see the chapter SPRAYING.
6.1. 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).
