BA Group Australia Warranty Policy
Environmental Conditions and Application:
Deteriorated or failed components such as
diaphragms, O'rings, hoses, seals, electrical wiring
and connections damaged by corrosive chemicals
dirt and sand, excessive heat or moisture.
Owners should ensure the type and strength of
chemicals used in the sprayer are compatible with
the design of the unit. Warranty determination
for these types of failures will be made by BA
Group Australia only after inspection of failed
components. In most instances these will incur
inspection charges and cost of replacement parts.
Normal Wear: Normal wear and consumable
items such as: oils and lubricants, diaphragms,
filter elements, flow meters, clutches, pivot pins,
paint, and nozzles are considered to be normal
wear items and are not warranted.
Maintenance: Component failure caused by not
performing scheduled maintenance service such
as: oils, grease, failure to clean tanks, pumps,
filters, spray lines, nozzles, fans or any other
blocked components. Not tightening or replacing
loose or missing bolts, nuts, fittings, shields and
covers.
Damage: Damages or machine failure, caused by
carelessness or accidental damage, improper
operation, inappropriate transportation or
storage of the sprayer or attachment.
Power Source: Failures due to faulty or
inadequate electrical sources of power. Owners
who use their own 12 volt power source must
make sure that it is suitable for operating the
spraying equipment.
Alterations: Any unauthorised alteration,
modification, attachments or unauthorised
repairs to the sprayer or attachments. Written
approval must be obtained from BA Group
Australia for any such items to maintain warranty.
Removal and Installation: The time taken to
remove and re-install a warranted part or
component into other brands of sprayers will not
be covered by the BA Group Australia Warranty.
Only parts and labour directly attributable to the
repair of the sprayer is covered.
Clean-up Time: BA Group Australia does not pay
for cleaning the sprayer, parts, accessories or
work area before or after the warranty repair.
Clean-up time is affected primarily by the
application or conditions in which the sprayer is
operated and maintained. Since clean-up time can
be so variable, cleaning time should be
considered a customer expense.
Transportation Costs: Warranty does not cover
transportation or insurance costs for sprayers or
other equipment needing repair or replacement
of warranted components. Nor does it cover any
freight or insurance costs in obtaining new parts
or returning old parts to BA Group Australia for
inspection purposes.
Travel Time: Travel time required for warranty
repairs is the responsibility of the Owner.
Diagnostic Time: Warranty does not cover time
required to diagnose a warranty problem.
Diagnostic time is affected greatly by the training
and expertise of the technician employed to do
the job. With proper training of service
personnel, diagnostic time should be at a
minimum. BA Group Australia expects that their
Agents are well trained and proficient to handle
any warranty repairs. Since BA Group Australia is
not in control of these responsibilities, we elect
not to cover diagnostic time.
Non-Genuine Repairs: Use of parts other than
genuine parts for repair of warranted parts will
automatically negate any guarantee. Warranted
components must be replaced with genuine BA
Group Australia repair parts.
Unauthorised Repairs: Repairs by an
unauthorised agent will automatically forfeit any
warranty. Warranty repairs must be carried out
by an authorised BA Group Australia dealer only.

cap of commercially available foam marker
concentrate into the contents of the Foam Marker
Tank will last for approximately 1.5 hrs of continuous
use.
Operating Instructions for the Greens Keeper
Position the sprayer so as to minimize contamination
to the operator or any bystander or to any part of the
environment not being involved.
Fill the tank with the desired amount of clean water
and turn the pump on to check all fittings and hoses for
any leaks. Adjust the pressure relief valve to your
desired pressure. Turning the pressure relief valve
knob clockwise will increase the pressure and anti-
clockwise will reduce the application pressure. Ideal
pressure is around 3 bar when using the Teejet AIXR
low pressure air induction nozzles.
After following all safety precautions and the chemical
manufacturers’ label regarding application rate and
mixing instruction you can introduce the spraying
product to the tank.
Position the Greens Keeper where you wish to
commence spraying. Grasp and lift the boom handles
and open each side of the boom and position in place.
Turn the “Spray/Agitate Control Valve”to “Agitate”
and turn the pump switch on. Allow the pump to
recirculate and mix the product in the tank for a couple
of minutes before spraying.
If a Foam Marker is fitted, turn the “Foam Marker
Control Valve” to the desired operating side and turn
the Foam Marker switch on. This may take a short time
for the foam to come through to the foam dropper on
the end of the boom.
Once you are ready, turn the “Spray/Agitate Control
Valve” to “Spray”. The nozzles will start spraying and
you can commence your spraying operation.
Take note of your speed via the digital speedometer so
you maintain as close to your desired speed as
possible. This will avoid over and under application.
Note:- if you don’t require all the nozzles to be
operating at the same time, you can turn the individual
nozzle bodies off or on with the use of the manual
Chemsaver valves located on each nozzle body.
