Operation
Description
Spray Fill Xpress chemical ll system is de-
signed with an in-line educator to mix uids and
dry chemicals in a self-contained system quick-
ly, easily, and safely. The Spray Fill Xpress op-
erates by receiving water into a venturi educator
where liquid or dry chemicals are mixed while
they are routed to the sprayer tank. The Spray
Fill Xpress is constructed out of 304 stainless
steel with a venturi type polypropylene educa-
tor that routes the spray solution through an as-
sembly of ttings and hose to the spray tank.
The Spray Fill Xpress is designed to be used
by an operator, when installed in an approved
location, during loading and draining of multiple
chemicals from the hoppers while the sprayer
tank is loaded.
Intended Uses
The Spray Fill Xpress is designed and con-
structed to be a part of applications that require
rapid mixing of a recipe of multiple liquid and or
dry chemicals and transport them to the sprayer
tank via some carrier that could be water. The
Spray Fill Xpress can be used in a wide variety
of conditions, but must be used in outdoor or
well ventilated areas.
Unintended Uses
Do not use the Spray Fill Xpress with explosive
materials.
Do not operate the Spray Fill Xpress with miss-
ing, damaged, or leaking parts.
Do not use the Spray Fill Xpress in applications
where uid could be used for human consump-
tion.
Do not use the Spray Fill Xpress if it is not prop-
erly secured to application.
Do not exceed the maximum pressure of 75 psi
when using the Spray Fill Xpress.
Initial Check
1. After receiving or assemblying your Spray
Fill Xpress, it is a good practice to double
check the entire machine to be sure all fas-
teners are securely tightened.
2. Make sure all ttings are in place and clamps
are tight.
Before Operation
1. Park Spray Fill vehicle on a rm level surface
large enough for good access of your eld
sprayer.
2. Ensure all Spray Fill Xpress valves are
closed prior to starting engine and inspect
for leaks.
3. Open Spray Fill Xpress lid and lock lid sup-
port brace into place so wind cannot close
lid on you. Inspect hoppers for cleanliness,
remove foreign material as necessary.
4. Turn on scale if equipped and verify scale is
zeroed prior to lling hopper with material to
be measured.
5. Measure required amount of chemical into
each hopper using scale, owmeter or other
accurate measuring vessel.
6. Each hopper is equipped with container
rinse system that can be used to rinse empty
liquid containers just by pushing the plunger
down with the container. Engine and pump
need to be operating for jug rinse nozzles to
function.
7. Each container should be rinsed for 30 sec-
onds or longer so operator is certain the con-
tainer is visibly clean.
8. Repeat 4 & 5 as required to make recipe.
