TO YOU, THE OWNER
Your Dalton Ag Equipment is the most modern, up-to-date, versale, machine available for ferlizer
applicaon. The machine is the result of many years of experience, research, development and tesng of
equipment for ferlizer applicaon. It is soundly engineered and carefully built to rigid specicaons. It is of
rugged and simple construcon, with a minimum of moving parts.
However, to obtain maximum performance from your Dalton Ag Equipment, it is necessary to follow the
instrucons and safety suggesons in this manual. Each secon has been carefully prepared for the purpose
of providing needed and valuable informaon to the owner and operator. Each operator of this unit should be
familiar with the contents of this manual. Keep it in a safe and convenient locaon. THERE ARE MANY SAFETY
SUGGESTIONS (CAUTION AREAS) PRINTED THROUGHOUT THIS MANUAL. CAREFULLY READ THEM ALL BEFORE
OPERATING THIS UNIT.
DESIGN IMPROVEMENTS
Dalton Ag Products follows a policy of connuous products improvement. We therefore reserve the right to
make design improvements, and changes in specicaons and prices, without incurring obligaons to make
revisions or addions to equipment previously sold.

IMPLEMENT SAFETY
In addion to design and conguraon of equipment, safety and accident prevenon are dependent upon the aware-
ness, concern, and proper training of personnel involved in the operaon, transport, maintenance, and storage of equip-
ment. Failing to follow these safety messages can result in machine damage, personal injury, and/or death.
• Before operang your applicator, thoroughly read and understand your operator’s manual. If you do not understand
any poron of the operator’s manual, contact your local Dalton Ag dealer immediately for claricaon.
• Furnish this manual to a new operator.
• Tow with tractor only. Never transport applicator unit in excess of 20 MPH. Maintain a safe speed.
• Use a Slow-Moving-Vehicle (SMV) emblem when transporng.
• Be sure safety decals are readable. All safety related decals must be replaced if the applicator is painted or the de-
cals are otherwise rendered unreadable.
• Install transport link before transporng.
• Always check for overhead obstacles in transporng applicator and before folding or unfolding the wings of the unit.
• Never permit riders on the applicator or tractor.
• Proceed slowly on rough or slippery roadways, on side hills, and around curves to avoid pping.
• Reduce speed when approaching ditches and corners. Do not make sharp turns with brakes.
• Machinery should be operated only by persons familiar to the tractor, applicator unit, and the safety related items.
• Do not stand on, or straddle tongue when unhitching.
• Do not modify or permit anyone to modify this applicator and any of its components without rst consulng your
Dalton Ag dealer.
• Do not lubricate, adjust, or repair when applicator unit is in moon.
• Use only approved replacement parts.
• To prevent serious injury from high pressure uid, NEVER aempt to inspect, service, or disassemble any part of the
hydraulic system unl all pressure is relieved by lowering the toolbar to the ground (or secure with cylinder transport
stops provided).
• High-pressure uid is nearly invisible but has enough force to penetrate the skin. Never use the hands to search
out a suspected leak. If injured by escaping uid, obtain medical aenon at once to minimize chance of infecon.
Wear safety glasses or goggles to avoid eye injury when working on the hydraulic system.
• Always check torque on wheel bolts before transporng.

PRE-SEASON CHECK
1. Carefully review the safety suggesons in this manual.
2. Check all bolts for proper ghtness. When the implement is new, check aer one hour and every few
hours of operaon.
3. Replace ground tools that are severely worn, broken or damaged.
4. Check res for proper inaon. All res should be inated equally to avoid side dra.
5. Check the wheel lug bolts daily, keep wheel bolts ght.
6. Grease all ngs.
7. Inspect, repack, or replace (if necessary) wheel bearings and seals.
8. Check hoses, hose roung and hydraulic cylinders. Any indicaon of leakage or fraying of hoses
should be corrected.
OFF-SEASON STORAGE
Following these suggesons will extend service life and sasfacon:
1. A lile me and eort spent cleaning your machine before storing will repay in longer service, easier
operaon and higher resale value.
2. Inspect for worn or damaged parts. Replace, if required, and avoid delays the next season.
3. Repaint all areas where the original paint is worn o.
4. Lubricate your implement.
5. Grease all exposed metal surfaces of ground tools.
6. Store the unit inside a shed to protect from weather and on a level area with wings down. The ground
working parts should rest on boards.
7. Disconnect the rod end of the li cylinders and retract the rod into the cylinder to prevent the cylinder
rod from rusng.
8. Cap or plug all hydraulic oil lines, if the cylinders are removed. This is to prevent any contaminants
from entering the hydraulic system.
9. Raise res o ground or remove and store in cool dry locaon out of sunlight.

6
IMPORTANT : Over ghtening hardware can be as damaging as under ghtening.
Tightening beyond recommended torque will reduce the fastener’s shock load capacity.
WARNING: Never work around any raised implement while in the
raised posion without using safety lockups.

LIQUID INJECTOR NOZZLE CHART
NOZZLE SELECTION
1. To select the proper nozzle size, rst determine the gallons per acre and speed that is going to be used. Go
to the table for the proper row spacing.
2. Find the speed across the top, go down to the “Gallon Per Acre” and read the nozzle size in the box.
3. Order nozzle by m.p.h. and gallons per acre.
FORMULA TO CONVERT POUNDS PER ACRE TO GALLONS PER ACRE
Pounds per Acre/Percent of Nitrogen = Total Pounds per Acre/pounds per Gallon = Gallons per Acre
EXAMPLE: 100 (# per Acre) / .28 (28%) = 357 (# per Acre) / 10.65 (#per Gallon) = 33.5 (GPA)
NOTE: If 1/2 rate is needed on outside shanks, order two nozzles with half the capacity. If 1 1/2 rate is needed on
outside shanks, order two nozzles with 1 1/2 mes the capacity.

To determine the orice plates you need, use the following equaons:
GPM = GPA x MPH x W W = Nozzle spacing (in inches)
(per nozzle) 5,940 for broadcast spraying.
= Spray width (in inches) for
GPA = 5,940 x GPM (per nozzle) single nozzle, band spraying
MPH x W or boomless spraying.
= Row spacing (in inches) divided
by the number of nozzles per row
for directed spraying.
NOTE: Always insert Orice Plate
with the side marked with the
number facing the outlet.
Tabulated ow rates are for spraying water into air at
atmospheric pressure. If your applicaon creates
backpressure, or if spraying into a liquid, measure and
calibrate to ensure proper applicaon rates.
