The low pressure gauge kit was
designedforcheckingtheactualpressure

It can be installed on the sprayers
assembledwithbothuniversalnozzlecaps
and fittings and complex nozzle bodies,
suchasdoubleandquadrupleoutletunits.
LOW PRESSURE GAUGE KIT (OPTIONAL)
ATTENTION:
Clean the filter whenever necessary or filling the sprayer tank.
Do not exceed the maximum recommended pressure (150 psi).
GENERAL CARE WITH THE LOW PRESSURE GAUGE KIT
The maximum pressure of this kit is 100 psi.
The pressure regulators of sprayers can easily reach above 100 psi pressures, what
candamage the pressure gauges.
To ensure longer life of the pressure gauge,close the valve after regulating the sprayer.
ASSEMBLYPROCEDURES
For the proper assembly of filters on the sprayers, the pressure hose must be connected
oriented by the arrow on the filter body.

FILLING WITH FILLING DEVICE (MODEL EJ-250)
Put 50 liters of water into the tank.
Remove the plastic cap of the primary valve (2) and set the lever to the filling position.
Connect the filling device hose (1) to the primary valve (2).
Place the filling device (3) in the water source and the end of its hose in the tank filling opening.
Run the PTO at 540 rpm.
Afterfilling,settheprimaryvalve(2)backtotheworkingpositionandinstallagaintheplasticcap.
ATTENTION
THE SPRAYER FILLING OPERATION MUST BE MADE IN PLACES
APPROPRIATE FOR THIS PURPOSE, OR BY MEANS OF APPROPRIATE
VEHICLES (TRUCKS, TRAILERS, ETC.).
