OPERATION

41441 CENTRIFUGAL PUMP

AFTER SPRAYING:

It is extremely important to carefully wash and

clean the Tank after every use.

Not only the Tank but the Pump, Hoses, Nozzles,

Screens, Filters, and the exterior of the Sprayer

also should be cleaned.

Flush Pump After Use

One of the most common causes for faulty pump

performance is "gumming" or corrosion inside the

pump. Flush the pump and entire system with a

solution that will chemically neutralize the liquid

pumped. Mix according to the chemical

manufacturer's directions. This will dissolve most

residue remaining in the pump, leaving the inside

of the pump clean for the next use.

A minimum of three 50 gallon rinses usually is

required for all components of the Sprayer. The

addition of a detergent cleaner may be advisable

in the initial washing. Directions for such an

addition, if required, are included on the chemical

container.

Cleaning of the Sprayer should be accomplished

in an area where there is no potential for the

chemicals to be washed off in surface water or to

enter subsurface drainage systems.

When Sprayer is not to be used for an extended

period, refer to the STORAGE section of this

Manual for the detailed instructions to prevent

damage to the components.
