Introduction

Congratulations on your purchase of a Enduramaxx Skid Unit which is complete and ready to ﬁt

to your vehicle. You need to read carefully and take note of the following warnings before

attempting to operate or install this sprayer.

Failure to comply with these warnings may result in serious injury or death.

WARNINGS

When ﬁtting to any vehicle ensure that you have read the Vehicle Owner’s Manual and that you

comply with all the weight restrictions as speciﬁed by the vehicle Manufacturer, as overloading

can cause injury or death. Remember that 1 litre of water weighs 1 kilogram.

To ensure your own safety and that of your employees if applicable you must comply with all

relevant environmental, work place, health & safety legislation and codes of practice.

Exercise extreme care when operating in hilly or uneven terrain to ensure proper stability and

braking ability. Refer also to the vehicle manufacturer’s operating and safety instructions.

Select and wear appropriate Personal Protection Equipment in accordance with the label of the

product you intend using and your own safe work practices.

Care should be taken if using your trailer for spraying in windy conditions as spray drift may

contaminate the air and may affect the operator or damage adjacent non target vegetation.

Once the spraying operation has been completed, decontaminate the spray tank and spray

accessories. Dispose of tank rinsings in compliance with current environmental, work place

health and safety regulations.

Personal Protection Equipment must still be worn while decontaminating your sprayer as per

warning at 4 above.

Improper or careless use of this trailer can cause serious injury or death. Minors should never

be allowed to use this sprayer.

You must be in good mental health to operate this sprayer and not be under the inﬂuence of

alcohol or any drugs that could impair your vision, physical strength, dexterity, judgment or

other mental capacity.

Do not point spray gun at any part of the human body. Do not pump ﬂammable liquids or

operate the pump in an explosive environment.

Risk Assessment

ENDURAMAXX PRODUCT INFORMATION RISK ASSESSMENT SHEET

Operating Instructions

The Enduramaxx Skid Sprayers have been designed for the application of agricultural

chemicals to plants and may be used with a handgun or in conjunction with a boom.

Setup

BEFORE USE

Check all hoses, connections and hose clamps to ensure that the unit has been

delivered to you without transportation loss or damage.

Before attempting any spraying with your new unit, partially ﬁll with water and

operate it to familiarize yourself with its features and capabilities and to ensure

that your unit has arrived in a safe working condition.

Please contact your dealer immediately should anything appear to have been

damaged.

CONNECTING TO 12 VOLT DC SUPPLY

The Sprayer requires a 12 volt DC power source. A 2 metre loom is provided with the

sprayer to allow the sprayer to be connected to the 12 volt DC source available. The

red wire is positive and the black is negative. If you extend the wire, use wire of the

same gauge or larger. An on/off switch is ﬁtted to the sprayer control box to allow

the sprayer to be switched off from the 12 volt DC source to prevent accidental drain

of power. The switch also allows the pump to be shut down when the tank is empty

preventing overheating and damage to pump. An in-line fuse is ﬁtted to prevent any

potential damage to the electrical system of the vehicle. Consult your vehicle

instruction manual for correct electrical connection.

FITTING INSTRUCTIONS

It is recommended that the sprayer be securely attached to any ATV or other vehicle.

Refer to manufacturer’s instructions for appropriate load limits and ﬁtting positions.

Note: 1 litre of water = 1kg.

Never ﬁll spray tank to a capacity beyond the speciﬁed overall weight limits set by

your vehicle manufacturer. When ﬁtted these should be ﬁrmly secured to approved

attachment points on the ATV or other vehicle.

Mixing and Filling

The following steps are given as a guide for mixing and ﬁlling the sprayer.

1. Read the product label and follow the instructions carefully, taking special note with

regard to the order in which the products are added to the tank.

2. Half-ﬁll the spray tank with water only and commence agitation by following these

steps:

• Turn regulator valve knob in anti-clock wise direction to reduce pressure

to “O” bar.

• Commence pumping and ﬂuid circulation

• Measure the correct quantity of pesticides, using clean measuring jugs used

only for this purpose and add to the spray tank while still agitating.

• Rinse out the measuring jugs and empty containers and pour all rinsings into

the spray tank.

• Top up the spray tank with clean water to the required level.

3. Your spray tank has now been correctly ﬁlled and the product thoroughly mixed,

spraying can now commence.

4. To commence spraying close the spray gun or boom and turn the adjustment knob

in a clockwise direction to the desired pressure and operate sprayer.

Spraying

For effective spraying ensure you have taken the following factors into account

1. Work Rates

• Speed of operation

• Water points or nurse tanks

• Rate of travel

• Swath width

• Spray volume applied

2. Wind and Drift

• Wind Speed

• Wind Direction

• Airspeed at boom height

(Avoid spraying on still warm days as convection currents may cause drift in

unpredictable directions. Optimum wind speeds are between 3km/h to

7km/h)

• Wind direction and drift is controlled by;

- Reducing nozzle height

- Reducing pressure and using larger nozzles

- Fit low-drift nozzles producing larger droplets

3. Field Work (see diagram below)

Swath marking and spraying

• Mark out to ensure proper pass matching – use ﬂags foam markers or

tramlines

• Where large obstructions exist in the middle of an area to be sprayed, mark

out and spray the area like a separate headland.

• The perimeter of the ﬁeld should be sprayed ﬁrst. The width of two swaths

will give adequate turning space at the ends of spray runs.

• Never spray while turning.

4. Speed

Maintain a constant speed when spraying. Should you need to increase your spraying

speed, larger delivery nozzles must be ﬁtted. Re-calibrate as required.

Sprayer Decontamination and Maintenance

After use, the sprayer must be thoroughly decontaminated, inside and outside –

including pump, hoses, boom and hand lance, to avoid damage to crops from harmful

spray residues. Decontamination prevents sprayer corrosion and abrasion. As a guide

follow the decontamination procedure below.

• After spraying, rinse out the tank with several changes of water plus a

recommended cleaning ﬂuid, brushing the inside of the tank.

• The suction ﬁlter mounted on the sprayer frame must be cleared regularly. Unscrew

the ﬁlter cover and remove the ﬁlter screen and gasket. Soak in clean water, brushing

with a nozzle brush. Ensure gasket is in position when re-assembling.

• The ﬁlter basket strainer is removed by lifting it out of the ﬁlter ring. Clean the

basket strainer the same way as the suction ﬁller. Replace the basket strainer by

exerting a quick downward push ensuring the strainer has seated correctly.

• Nozzles, nozzle ﬁlters, nozzle caps and gaskets should be cleaned by soaking in

water, brushing with a nozzle brush and allowed to dry. Never blow through the

nozzles with your mouth nor use wipe or pins to clear any blockages.

When re-assembling, ensure that the nozzle cap gasket is correctly positioned

when reassembled.

When storing the sprayer, ensure that it is clean and dry and kept in a ventilated place.

If heavy frosts are experienced, run the pump to make sure pump and spray lines are

dry. This will prevent water freezing in the pump or spray lines and damaging sprayer.

All products are sold in accordance with our terms and conditions of sales of goods

dated 25.09.13. These terms and conditions can be found on our website. They are

also available upon request.

Calibration

Accurate calibration is an essential element of any spraying function as it ensures that

the pesticide is applied at the rate on the product label. Application in excess of the

recommended rate is prohibited, can damage crops and is uneconomical.

Calibration must always be carried out:

• When spraying for the ﬁrst time with new spray equipment

• At the beginning of each season

• After changes of nozzle tips, spraying pressure or speed

• After every 100 hectares of spraying

When calibrating a sprayer, a minimum of coverall, gloves and boots must be worn.

A face shield and PVC apron may be included depending on the task and the cleanliness

of the sprayer.
