MAIN COMPONENTS OF SPRAYER

SUCTION FILTER

Located between the tank and the pump, the suction filter is specifically designed to prevent dirt or impurities from reaching the pump.

It has an easily reached shut off valve which obstructs the liquid flow for filter cleaning, filtering elements changing and/or pump maintenance.

This valve must always remain open while the sprayer is running. If it remains closed, you will hear an unusual noise in the the pump.

MAIN COMPONENTS OF SPRAYER

Your sprayer may be equipped with Jacto VAR or Masterflow control valve. Identify it in the drawings below and proceed as directed.

V.A.R. CONTROL VALVE (CONDOR: M-12/75 / S-12/75 / EM/75 / S-EM/75 / 800 B-12/75 / BX-

12-75)

This is a two-stage pressure regulator that provides greater sensibility in the calibrations.

The first stage is for calibrations from 0.7 to 4.2 kg/cm² (10 to 60 psi), usually used in herbicides applications. To avoid misreading, the pressure gauge has both high and low pressure reference scale.

VAR pressure gauge reference scale

(1)

NOTE: The scale on the cylinder body is to be used as reference for calibration of the sprayer.

It does not have the same function of the pressure gauge, which indicates the spraying pressure.

PRESSURE REGULATOR

MASTERFLOW CONTROL VALVE (CONDOR BX-12/75 MF / PJ-600 BX-10 MF)

This is a regulator that provides great sensitiveness and precision in the calibrations.

It has two basic functional characteristics in relation to conventional control valves.

1) FLOW PROPORTIONAL TO TRAVEL (Proportional Debit)

Even if the tractor's rpm fluctuates in a same working gear, it keeps the same spray volume per treated area.

2) CONSTANT PRESSURE ALONG THE WHOLE BOOM INDEPENDENT OF THE NUMBER OF

SECTIONS IN USE (Calibrated Return)

It has a system that allows to calibrate the return of each boom section, thus keeping the same working pressure in all sections, independent of the number of open or closed sections.

MAIN COMPONENTS OF SPRAYER

AGS SINGLE NOZZLE HOLDER

CONDOR: M-12/75 / S-12/75 / 800 B-12/75 / BX-12/75 / BX-12/75 MF

The AGS single nozzle holder AGS is mounted with a ceramic cone nozzle (M-12/75

/ S-12/75 / 800 B-12/75) or stainless steel cone nozzle (BX-12/75 / BX-12/75 MF). It has a nondrip valve which shuts the flow off when the pressure drops to 10 psi, thus preventing it from dripping.

nondrip valve nozzle holder nozzle

BIJET WITH HOLSE - NOSSLE HOLDER (OPTIONAL)

CONDOR: M-12/75 / S-12/75.

The BIJET WITH HOLSE NOZZLE HOLDER is mounted with a ceramic cone nozzle and one fan nozzle. It has a non drip valve which shuts the flow off when the pressure drops to 10 psi, thus preventing it from dripping.

cone nozzle no drip valve nozzle holder fan nozzle

SPRAY NOZZLES

The job of the nozzles is to generate droplets and distribute them over the surface being sprayed.

Flow, angle and droplet sizes vary according to working pressure. Also, operating with pressure over that recommended by the manufacturer will decrease the nozzles life.

The nozzles installed in these sprayers are mounted as shown in the figures below.

Flat fan nozzle filtering element flat fan nozzle nozzle cap

ATTENTION : Operating with pressures over that recommended by the manufacturer may change the nozzles working characteristics.

16

MAIN OF COMPONENTS OF SPRAYER

FOAM MARKER (OPTIONAL)

This accessory is specifically designed to mark off the application band width with foam so as to prevent overlaps and skips when spraying back.

The ideal conditions for using the foam marker are the same for spraying, that is:

- Cool weather;

- No strong and dry wind.

17

MAIN COMPONENTS OF SPRAYER

LINE FILTER (OPTIONAL)

JACTO also offers line filters for the spray circuit of boom sprayer. For each boom section there is a filter to be assembled on the pressure line.

This filter has 80-mesh screen and optimize the filtration to the nozzles.

To match some sprayers already being used, some kits have been made which are specific to each product line:

TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS

Maximum working pressure ........................................................................ 150 psi

Filtering element mesh ................................................................................ 80

Hose fitting ................................................................................................. ø 1/2"

ASSEMBLY PROCEDURES

For the proper assembly of filters on the sprayers, the pressure hose must be connected oriented by the arrow on the filter body.

LINE FILTER

NOTE:

The arrow indicates the flow inlet of the line filter.

Right boom

ATTENTION:

Clean the filter whenever necessary or filling the sprayer tank.

Do not exceed the maximum recommended pressure (150 psi).

LOW PRESSURE GAUGE KIT (OPTIONAL)

The low pressure gauge kit was designed for checking the actual pressure on nozzles.

It can be installed on the sprayers assembled with both universal nozzle caps and fittings and complex nozzle bodies, such as double and quadruple outlet units.

LOW PRESSURE GAUGE KIT

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.

OPERATION AND ADJUSTMENTS

SPRAY APPLICATION TECHNOLOGY

A successful spray application does not depend only on a good sprayer or correct use of the chemicals but also on factors to be determined in the field under specialized orientation.

Among these factors, some concepts should be part of a criterion of evaluation so that positive results may be attained within the pest control program.

- Ideal time

- Safety

- Sprayer operational condition

- Application rate

- Good coverage

- Well trained operator

IDEAL TIME

The ideal time for spraying should be chosen according to the chemical product characteristics, as well as to the field conditions:

- Infestation level of pests, diseases and weeds;

- Infection level of diseases;

- Growing stage of weeds;

- Weather conditions.

SAFETY

When spraying your crops, you must make sure there will be no risk to people, animals and environment. Avoid spraying at hotter times, with humidity below 55% or under windy conditions.

Never handle chemicals and spraying machinery without the obligatory individual protective equipment.

CORRECT APPLICATION RATE

Any type of application requires that the rate be maintained during the whole spraying work. This will be possible when you have a good sprayer properly calibrated.

This calibration can be obtained through practical methods or formulas. Please refer to the section OPERATION AND ADJUSTMENTS - CALIBRATING THE SPRAYER .

GOOD COVERAGE

You have a good coverage when the whole target is sprayed with uniform distribution, with no risk to the environment and with good results in the pest control.

The application rate does not have influence on the treatment results. Therefore good coverages can be attained even with different rates, which may vary according to operational and regional factors.

IMPORTANT!

READ CAREFULLY AND FOLLOW STRICTLY THE INSTRUCTIONS ON THE

CHEMICALS MANUFACTURER'S LABEL.

ALWAYS FOLLOW DIRECTIONS OF A TECHNICIAN WHEN HANDLING AND

APPLYING CHEMICALS.

ALWAYS MAKE SURE THE SPRAYER IS IN GOOD OPERATIONAL CONDITIONS

BEFORE STARTING THE SPRAYING JOB AND EMPLOY A WELL TRAINED

OPERATOR.

OPERATIONS AND ADJUSTMENTS

V.A.R. CONTROL VALVE

CONDOR: M-12/75 / S-12/75 / 800 B-12/75 / EM/75 / S-EM/75 / BX-12/75

This is a two-stage pressure regulator which provides great sensitiveness in the calibrations.

The first stage is for calibration from 0.7 to 4.2 kg/cm² (10 to 60 psi), normally used for spraying herbicides. To prevent failures when reading the pressure gauge, this has an extended scale to provide great sensitiveness in both high and low pressure calibrations.

V.A.R.

pressure gauge

NOTE: The scale is a reference for calibrating the sprayer. It does not have the same function of the pressure gauge which shows the pressure in the spray band.

REGULATING THE PRESSURE

1. Run the tractor PTO and gradually accelerate until reaching 540 rpm.

2. Set the lever (1) to the open position (for the booms).

3. Set the lever (2) to the open position (both sides).

4. Turn the knob until obtaining the desired pressure. Clockwise to increase pressure, counterclockwise to decrease pressure.

5. After regulating the pressure, set the lever (1) to the close position, and close the pressure gauge valve.

PRESSURE REGULATOR

MASTERLOW CONTROL VALVE (CONDOR BX-12/75 MF / PJ-600 BX-10 MF)

This pressure regulator provides great sensitiviness and precision to the calibrations.

It has two basic functional characteristics in relation to the conventional control valves.

1. FLOW RATE PROPORTIONAL TO TRAVEL

The spray volume per area sprayed remains constant even if the tractor speed fluctuates in a same gear.

2. SAME PRESSURE ALONG THE WHOLE BOOM REGARDLESS OF THE NUMBER OF

SECTIONS IN USE

A systems allows to calibrate the return of each boom section, thus keeping the same pressure in all sections, regardless of the number of open or closed sections.

07.Check for pressure variation in the pressure gauge. If so, proceed as follows:

- Loosen the fixing screw of the outlet to the boom section chosen, as shown by the arrow (fig. E ).

- To increase the pressure, turn the knob clockwise (fig. F ).

-To decrease the pressure, turn the knob counterclockwise (fig. G ).

NOTE: The pressure should be the equal to that shown by the pressure gauge previously when the nozzles of this boom section were open and should not vary when operating the lever of the calibrated boom section.

- After calibrating that boom section, set the lever back to point downward (open position).

- Repeat the same operation with all boom sections so as to keep the pressure constant along the whole boom regardless of the number of boom sections in use.

OPERATION AND ADJUSTMENTS

CHEMICAL CONTAINER RINSE

The chemicals are packaged in appropriate containers for each type of product.

After emptying the containers, they must be discarded in a safety way, in order not to poison the man and the environment.

It is very important , before any discard of empty containers, to remove the residues of the product that are sticked inside it and make it useless by piercing it.

Metal, plastic and glass containers must be rinsed for decontamination.

To facilitate this important operation , Jacto has installed on its trailed sprayers a suitable device that rinses internally the containers with pressurized water, eliminating most of the residues.

sprinkler stainer valve directional seals fixer valve

PROCEDURES

- Fill the chemical tank up to approximately

50% of its capacity.

- Pour the chemical into the tank.

- Engage the tractor PTO.

NOTE: The relief lever of the chemical control must be set to allow the chemical return to the tank (off) and the suction filter valve must be with the arrow turned to the main tank.

ATTENTION: USE THE RECOMMENDED

PROTECTIVE CLOTHING FOR THIS OPERATION.

APPLICATIONS

The flat fan nozzles of the Series 110-UF, approved by international standards, are nozzles of universal use made in Kemtal, a highly resistant and stable polymeric material. These nozzles are as resistant as those in stainless steel. According to tests carried out by the University of Oregon,

U.S.A., they proved to have useful life of at least 400 hours.

The flow rate is uniform under various temperatures and the spray angle is of 110 degrees.

At low pressure (15 psi), drift is reduced and outstanding spray deposti pattern is achieved with the generation of large droplets. At high pressure (40 psi) small droplets improve penetration into and coverage of plants.

OPERATION AND ADJUSTMENTS

SPRAYER CALIBRATION WITH THE CALIBRATOR BOTTLE

BEFORE CALIBRATING THE SPRAYER CHECK THE FOLLOWING:

- Suction filter: dirts

- Hoses: twisted or bored;

- Pressure regulator components (valve seat, valve and spring): wear or dirts;

- Pump: proper lubrication (oil level and grease) and leakages;

- Nozzles: same model, wear, flow rate, strainers.

AFTER CHECKING, PROCEED WITH THE CALIBRATION AS FOLLOWS

1 - Mark off 50 meter on the ground to be sprayer.

2 - Fill up the sprayer.

3 - Choose the working gear.

4 - Engage the PTO.

5 - Accelerate until reaching 540 rpm at the PTO.

5 m

0 m 50 m

6 - Start travelling at leat 5 meters before the initial mark.

7 - Note the time it takes the tractor to travel 50 meters.

8 - On irregular terrain, repeat this operation several times and take the average.

9 - Stop the tractor with the acceleration used to travel the 50 meters, open the nozzles and adjust the pressure according to directions for the different types of nozzles:

- Cone nozzles : from 45 to 200 psi

- Flat fan nozzles : from 15 to 60 psi

10 - Use the calibrator bottle to collect the nozzle spray volume during the same time taken to travel the 50 meters, and read on the column corresponding to the nozzle spacing.

11 - Repeat this operation with several nozzles to obtain a volume average.

1,000 ml 400 l/ha 500 l/ha

300 ml 120 l/ha 150 l/ha

0 ml 0 0 nozzle spacing

Volume in ml 0.50 m 0.40 m

12 -The average obtained will be the spray volume for the gear and pressure already determined.

NOTE: 1º- If the spray volume obtained is below that wished, increase the pressure, decrease the speed (but 540 rpm at PTO) or change the nozzles for others of higher flow rate.

2º- If the spray volume is above that wished, decrease the pressure, increase the speed

(but keep 540 rpm at PTO) or change the nozzles for others of lower flow rate.

39

OPERATION AND ADJUSTMENTS

CALIBRATING THE SPRAYER THROUGH A PRACTICAL METHOD

(Condor 600 EM-1/EM-2 e Condor 600 EM-1 P/EM-2 P)

BEFORE CALIBRATING THE SPRAYER EQUIPPED WITH GUN OR LANCE CHECK THE

FOLLOWING:

- Suction filter: dirts;

- Hoses: twisted or bored;

- Pressure regulator components (valve seat, valve and spring): wear or dirts;

- Pump: proper lubrication (oil level and grease) and leakages;

- Nozzles: same model, wear, flow rate, strainers.

BEFORE CHECKING, PROCEED WITH THE CALIBRATION AS FOLLOWS:

1- When there is not enough space between the rows for the tractor to enter, determine the spray swath by measuring the crop spacing and dividing by the number of times the sprayer passes between the same rows (e.g.: 4 m between rows ÷ 2 times = 2 m spray swath).

2- On beds (e.g.: vegetables), the spray swath will be equal to the bed width multiplied by the number of beds sprayed simultaneously (e.g.: 1 m bed width x 3 beds sprayed simultaneously = 3 m spray swath).

3- When the tractor enters the space between the rows, the spray swath can vary depending on the quantity of lance or gun used for spraying. If using one spray lance or gun, the spray swath is the crop spacing divided by two (e.g.: 4 m between rows ÷ 2 = 2 m spray swath). If using two spray lances or guns, the spray swath is equal to the crop spacing (e.g.: 4 m between rows = 4 m spray swath). If there is need to use two operators on the same side of the crop, each with a spray gun or lance, the spray swath can be determined by dividing the crop spacing by two (e.g.: 4 m crop spacing ÷ 2 = 2 m spray swath).

50 metros

4- To know how many meters need to be sprayed to cover 100 m², divide 100 by the spray swath measured (e.g.: 100 ÷ 2 m spray swath = 50 m, which is the distance to be sprayed).

5- Fill the sprayer tank.

6- Choose the operating gear.

7- Engage the PTO.

8- Accelerate until reaching 540 rpm at the PTO.

9- Note the time (seconds) it takes to spray the distance previously obtained in "item 4" (e.g.: 50 m) at a comfortable speed, which is sustainable on the normal conditions of the area (acclivity, declivity, obstacles, etc.) to be sprayed during the normal time of work.

40

OPERATION AND ADJUSTMENTS

10Repeat this operation twice and take the average, adding time 1 and time 2 and dividing by two (e.g.: time 1 = 29s; time 2 = 31s; 29 + 31 = 60s; 60 ÷ 2 = 30s average, that is the time it takes to spray the distance previously obtained in "item 4", which is 50m).

11Stop the tractor with the rotation used to travel the 50 m, run the sprayer, pull the trigger (lance

LP-1130) or turn the knob on (gun) to begin the spraying and adjust the pressure according to the recommendation for the nozzle type:

- Cone nozzles: from 45 to 200 psi

- Flat fan nozzles: from 15 to 60 psi

- Deflector nozzles: from 15 to 30 psi

- Stainless steel nozzles series D: from 100 to 400 psi

12Collect the spraying volume in a container during the time determined (e.g.: 30s according to

"item 9").

13Measure the spraying volume in a graduated bottle.

14Repeat this operation twice and take the average (e.g.: 5 liters)

15To determine the spraying volume in 1 hectare, multiply 100 by the volume sprayed in 100 m²

(e.g.: sprayed volume = 5 liters x 100 = 500 L/ha spraying volume).

16Contact an agronomist and read the product instructions to check if the volume is inside the recommended limits. If the volume varies 10% from the recommended volume, proceed as follows: keep

1- If the spraying volume is below that desired, increase the pressure, decrease the speed (but

540 rpm at PTO) or change the nozzles for others of higher flow rate.

keep

2- If the spraying volume is above that desired, decrease the pressure, increase the speed (but

540 rpm at PTO) or change the nozzles for others of lower flow rate.

If it is necessary to carry out any of the above procedures, repeat the calibration procedure.

• When the recommended product dosage is concentrated (e.g.: 150 ml/100 L water), check the proper spraying volume through the beginning of the chemical flow, in case of foliage, or the desired droplet concentration.

17Contact an agronomist and read the product instructions to identify the recommended dosage.

• If the dosage is recommended in hectare (e.g.: 2.5 L/ha), calculate the necessary quantity of product for each filling operation in relation to the sprayed volume. For example, if the tank capacity is 400 liters and the spraying volume is 500 L/ha, the necessary quantity of product is (400 ÷ 500) x 2.5 = 2.0 liters product per tank.

• If the dosage is recommended in concentration (e.g.: 150 ml/100 L water), calculate the necessary quantity of product for each filling operation in relation to the tank capacity. For example, if the tank capacity is 400 liters, the necessary quantity of product is (400 ÷ 100) x 150 = 600 ml product per tank.

49

MAINTENANCE

TROUBLE-SHOOTING a - LACK OF SUCTION AND PUMPING CAPACITY

PROBABLE CAUSES CORRECTIONS

1- PTO not turning.

The sprayer should be run with 540 rpm at PTO. Check visually whether the pump is being run.

2- Lack of water in tank.

To run the hydraulic system, it is necessary to contain a minimum quantity of liquid, otherwise there will be no pressure.

3- Filter valve closed (quick shut-off).

4- Dirty filter.

5- Obstruction in the intake hoses.

6- Air in the system.

When the pump runs, liquid will pass through the valve even in the closed position, however it will be insufficient. Open it.

Impurities in the filter prevent a free liquid flow. Clean the filter whenever filling the tank, or with more frequency depending on the quality of the water and the type of product applied.

Check whether the hose connecting the filter to the pump is twisted.

Check whether there is any obstruction in the hoses from tank to filter. Fill up the tank with water, open the valve and verify if it flows freely.

Check the filter packing ring. The filter should not leak.

7- Insufficient pump suction.

Remove the cover of the suction valves.

Check the condition of the valves and replace them if necessary.

b - PRESSURE DEFICIENCY

PROBABLE CAUSES

1- Low PTO rpm.

2- Valve closed (quick shut-off).

3- Filter partially obstructed.

4- Intake hose partially obstructed.

5- Air in the system.

6- Pressure regulator.

7- Worn nozzles.

8- Low pumping capacity.

CORRECTIONS

The proper PTO rotation is 540 rpm.

When the pumps runs, liquid will pass through the valve even in the closed position, however flow will be insufficient.

The filter should be clean to allow free liquid flow.

A deficient pump will cause depressurization. Check whether the hose connecting the filter to the pump is twisted.

Verify whether there is any obstruction in the hoses connecting the tank to the filter. Fill the tank with water, open the valve and observe if it flows freely.

Check the connections and the o'rings of the tank outlet and the pump inlet.

Check the valve and valve seat.

Check whether the nozzle flow is within the recommended guidelines.

Replace the nozzles when the flow rate exceeds 10% of the specified.

Use only nozzles recommended by the sprayer manufacturer.

Disconnect the pressure hose from the control valve.

Run the sprayer at 540 rpm.

Collect water for one minute and measure. The volume collected should approximate this shown below for each pump model:

JP - 402 = 38 L/min

JP - 75 = 75 L/min

JP - 150 = 150 L/min

JP - 300 = 300 L/min

JP - 100 = 100 L/min
