the FrontTank from the MainTank.

box.
2. The correct procedure is to mix the chemicals in the Turbofiller as
described in the MEGA Instruction book chapter 5 - Operation
“Filling liquid/powder chemicals using the TurboFiller”.
3. Pump the spray liquid from the MainTank to the FrontTank, using the
valve settings shown in the illustration.
μATTENTION! It is not possible to use the TurboFiller and pump
liquid from the MainTank to the FrontTank at the same time, it must
be done in two individual procedures.
Emptying the FrontTank
