5. The driver of the carrying or towing vehicle is respon-sible for the safety of the operator(s) of the machine.Make sure the driver is aware and avoids all possiblehazards to the operator(s) of the machine, such as lowtree limbs, low power lines, etc. Vehicles on whichequipment is mounted or towed must be stopped andstarted gradually. Avoid abrupt starts or stops. Neveroperate on a slope or a hill that may endanger the dri-ver and/or the operator(s). All personnel shouldreview and be familiar with stop/start signals betweenthe driver and operator(s) before going into operation.Only the operator should be located on the platformduring operation.

6. Operator(s) of equipmentshould never ride on themachine at speeds ofgreater than 5 MPH (8kmh).

7. Never operate machine inan enclosed area withoutventing the engine exhaustof both the equipment andvehicle on which the equip-ment is mounted. Deadlycarbon monoxide fumescan accumulate.

8. Never operate this or any other machinery whenfatigued, tired, under the influence of alcohol, illegaldrugs or medication. You must be in good physicalcondition and mentally alert to operate this machine.

9. Never modify the machine. Never remove any part ofthe machine (except for service and then reinstallbefore operating).

10. Use proper means (steps,ladder) for mounting anddismounting of themachine. Never mount ordismount a movingmachine.

III. SLURRY APPLICATION:

1. Do not aim discharge spraytoward power-lines, trans-formers, or other high volt-age electrical conductors.Also do not aim dischargespray towards people, ani-mals or anything other thanthe intended applicationarea.

2. Never engage the clutchwhen both the recirculationand discharge valves areclosed. Operation with bothvalves closed will result inextreme heat generationthat could cause severebodily injury and damage tothe equipment.

3. Recirculation valve must be open and material flowingback into the tank when using the remote valve. Aclosed or plugged recirculation line will cause extremeheat in the pump or discharge lines which will result insevere bodily injury and damage to the equipment.

4. During application through a hose, high pressure canbe exerted at the end of the hose. Hose holding per-sonnel must establish good footing. The operatorshould apply gradual pressure to the hose only afterhose holding personnel are firmly positioned and havefirm control of the hose. Additional personnel to directhose may be necessary if working on slopes. Theproper technique for hose holding personnel is tofirmly grasp the hose over the shoulder or under botharms. Never hold the hose so it goes between thelegs. If the hose holding personnel finds that it isuncomfortable for him to handle the hose by himselfadditional hose holders should be positioned at theend of the hose.

5. Plan application so that the furthest area is coveredfirst; working back toward the HydroSeeder®, so thatthe individuals are not walking back over slipperyground.

6. Before opening any valvesor pipe clamps shutmachine down and check ifmaterial in the pipe is hot. Ifhot, do NOT open valve orpipe clamps as the hotmaterial may cause severepersonal injury. Allow tocool and open with caution.

7. Except when loading materials keep loading hatch lidclosed to protect operator and prevent splashing ofwet material onto the tank top.

8. Wash off spillage of slippery mulch or slurry additivefrom the tank top and platform before operating equip-ment.

MAINTENANCE:

1. Before servicing themachine, turn off engineand allow all moving partsto stop. To prevent acci-dental starting disconnectbattery cables. Tag theengine operating area toshow that the machine isbeing serviced. Use lock-out/tagout procedure (OSHA 29 CFR 1910.147).

2. Certain hydroseeding amendments, when combinedwith or without the addition of water or heat or the ele-ment of time, may react causing harmful or deadlygasses! Consult your mate-rial suppliers regardingreactivity information. Theslurry tank must be flushedand drained after each dayof operation.

3. Your slurry tank may beconsidered a confinedspace by OSHA under 29 CFR 1910.146. Beforeentering any confined space, your company mustdevelop a procedure for safe entry. Make sure yourcompany’s plan meets all the requirements of 29 CFR1910.146. including the following:

a) Drain, flush and ventilate tank interior.

b) Turn off engine and disconnect battery cablesand perform lockout/tagout procedures. (29 CFR1910.147)

c) Provide continuous ventilation or proper breath-ing apparatus.

d) If tank must be entered, personnel entering thetank must be tethered to a lifeline.

e) Provide stand-by individual outside of tank able tocommunicate with person inside and able to haulhim out with lifeline if necessary.

4. Before loosening anyclamps or opening anyvalves, determine if materialin the line is hot by feelingthe pipe. Do NOT allowmaterial to come in contactwith personnel. Severe bod-ily injury could result.

5. On trailer units perform general maintenance such aschecking the safety chains, hitch and hitch bolts, tires,brakes. Repair or replace if worn or broken. Neveroperate machine on improperly inflated or damagedtires. Always use a safety cage or cable restraintswhen re-inflating a repaired tire.

6. Radiator maintenance: Liquid cooling systems buildup pressure as the engine gets hot. Before removingradiator cap, stop the engine and let the system cool.Remove radiator cap only after the coolant is cool.

7. Battery maintenance: Lead-acid batteries contain sul-furic acid, which damage eyes of skin on contact.Always wear a face shield to avoid acid in the eyes. Ifacid contacts the eyes, flush immediately with cleanwater and get medical attention. Wear rubber glovesand protective clothing to keep acid off skin. Leadacid batteries produce flammable and explosivegasses. Keep arcs, sparks, flames and lighted tobac-co away.

8. Filling of fuel: Never fill the tank with the engine run-ning, while smoking or when near an open flame.Never smoke while handling fuel or working on thefuel system. The fumes in an empty container areexplosive. Never cut or weld on fuel lines, tanks orcontainers. Move at least 10 feet (3 meters) awayfrom fueling point before starting engine. Wipe off anyspilled fuel and let dry before starting engine.

OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE MANUAL FOR

FINN T90 & T120 HYDROSEEDERS®

This manual gives you step by step instructions for the operation and maintenance of the Finn HydroSeeder®.For best results and to insure longer life of the equipment, please follow the instructions carefully. For yoursafety read the entire manual before operation of this unit.

DEFINITION OF HYDROSEEDING:

Hydroseeding is the process whereby seed, fertilizer and/or lime and wood fiber mulch (using water as acarrying medium) are applied on the soil to establish vegetation.

THE FINN HYDROSEEDER® AND HOW IT WORKS:

The Finn HydroSeeder® will apply seed, fertilizer and/or lime, wood fiber mulch, or stabilizing materials inany prescribed or desired combination. The materials placed in the HydroSeeder® slurry-tank are mixed withwater and kept in suspension by a dual agitation process, recirculation of slurry and mechanical agitation, thusforming a slurry that is pumped to the discharge assembly and directed onto the seed bed by the operator. Thisequipment is designed to accomplish hydroseeding in one easy operation with maximum efficiency.

MOUNTING THE HYDROSEEDER®:

For speed and mobility of operation, the HydroSeeder® should be mounted on a truck or trailer, however, it isimportant to select a carrier with sufficient capacity to handle the added weight.

Once the proper carrier has been selected, the HydroSeeder® must be securely mounted to it.

CAUTION: Your FINN HydroSeeder® should be mounted by a qualifiedtruck body installer.

When mounting the HydroSeeder® to the truck, any one of the following methods of mounting is acceptable:

A. Bolt the HydroSeeder® directly to the truck bed. Installer must insure that the bed as well as thebed to truck and HydroSeeder® to bed connections are adequate for the full load weights that areshown on page 6.

B. Mount the HydroSeeder® to the truck frame. Note: T90 and T120 HydroSeeder® have mountinglegs that are 44” across and therefore require an adapter frame or a chassis bed of adequate strengthto mount to the truck’s 34” wide rails.

IMPORTANT: Mounting the HydroSeeder® to the truck must allow for tire clear-ance as well as frame twist. Place hard wood spacers along thelength of truck rails or use Finn spring mounting kit (#011562) orequivalent.

C. Place chains over the HydroSeeder® and around truck bed and secure with binders. Secure theHydroSeeder® with blocks tied to the truck bed.

IMPORTANT: When using a truck with a tilt bed be sure to chain the truck beddown to prevent the bed from being accidentally hoisted.

ATTACHMENTS:

1. Extension hoses for reaching remote areas are available in 50 ft. (15m) lengths. All connections arecamlock quick operating fittings. The hose is connected to the end of the discharge boom in placeof a nozzle. The nozzle is connected to the end of the hose and controlled by the person on theground. The flow is controlled by a second person on the HydroSeeder®. This allows for a fullpressure and volume operation.

2. For lower pressure applications, or for close up work, i.e. around buildings, the remote valve attach-ment can be used. The attachment includes semi-rigid hose with quick disconnect fittings alongwith a hand held valve which fits the end of the hose and accepts the standard nozzle assemblies.The hose is connected to the outlet on the discharge pipe above the pump. The machine is run at1/2 to 3/4 throttle and material is applied where desired.

DANGER: The recirculation valve must be open when using a remotevalve. If valve is not open, extreme heat will occur resulting indamage and/or bodily injury.

3. Hose Reel. The live hose reel will mount either on the HydroSeeder® or on the truck frame. The 200foot capacity electric rewind reel will wind up and store empty hose. It can be electrically connectedto the HydroSeeder® battery.

NOTE: Electric hose reels can be wired to truck batteries. Please contactthe Finn Corporation Engineering Dept. for instructions on thisinstallation.

4. Fill pumps with the capacity of 5,500 GPH (19,000 l/h) or 9,000 GPH (34,000 l/h) can either becarried on the truck or mounted on the HydroSeeder®.

5. Hardened pump parts. Pump casing, impeller, and suction cover treated with special materialdesigned to resist wear.

6. Rear spray bar. The spray bar option is not designed for slurry application but for the dispersion ofliquids for dust control, watering, feeding and washing applications. Rear spray bar can be arrangedso that operation is remotely controlled from the truck cab.

PRE-START CHECK:

Safety check to insure operator safety:

1. A. Skid Unit - Check condition of all mounting hardware securing HydroSeeder® to truck framerails.

B. Trailer Unit - Inspect hitch, safety chains, lights, brakes and breakaway switch.

2. Make sure bag cutter is in place and secure.

3. Inspect that all railings are in place and secure.

4. Insure that all guards are in place.

EQUIPMENT CHECK:

CAUTION: Equipment check is made with the engine off and all rotatingparts stopped.

1. See that tool kit contains all the prescribed items (see tool kit list in parts book page 69).

2. Inspect the “slurry-tank” for foreign objects. See numbers 2 and 3 in Maintenance Section (IV) ofthe Safety Summary Section page 4.

3. Check fuel level.

4. Check the hydraulic oil level (see hydraulic system page 21 for oil specifications).

5. Check engine oil level...for oil type refer to the engine manual.

6. Check fluid level in radiator and overflow tank.

7. Inspect air cleaner for dust and dirt, clean if necessary.

8. Secure the drain plug on the outside-bottom of the slurry-tank.

9. Check to be certain pump drain plug is in place.

10. Verify that suction line shut-off valve is completely open.

11. Lubricate equipment - See Lube Chart pages 22-23.

A. Each lubrication point is marked.

B. Check automatic pressure lubricator at pump. If the stem is fully extended with thumb nut allthe way up then pressure lubricator contains lubricant - if not, lubricant must be replaced by thefollowing procedure:

a) Turn thumb nut clockwise until stem rises to maximum height.

b) Remove cap and fill cap with sodium (water soluble) base grease. (FINN part number000698). Do not use lithium base (chassis lube) grease.

c) Replace cap.

d) Turn thumb nut counter-clockwise until the thumb nut is at the top of the stem. The springand pressure disc in the lubricator forces the grease, under pressure, to the pump seal.

IMPORTANT: When the thumb nut has moved down to within 1/2” (1.25 cm) oftouching the cap reservice the automatic lubricator.

12. Engage and disengage clutch to determine if it “snaps” in and out.

13. Install discharge assembly (if stored in location other than standard operating position).

A. Check and clean nozzle of obstructions.

B. Tighten the wing bolt at the opening around the top of discharge assembly and insure thatdischarge assembly is secure

14. Check pump discharge and recirculation valve handles for free movement.

TWO VALVE OPERATION:

This HydroSeeder® is equipped with two independently operated ball valves to control slurry flow. One islocated in the recirculation line below the platform, and the other is located in the discharge line above theplatform. The recirculation valve is open when the handle is in line with the valve ports and is closed whenthe handle is at a right angle to the valve ports. The discharge valve is open when the “v” notch in the footpedal is in line with the valve ports and is closed when the “v” notch is at a right angle to valve ports.

WARNING: Never engage the slurry pump clutch when both valve handlesare positioned as shown Figure 1. Both valves are closed andwill result in extreme heat generation that will cause damage orbodily injury if the slurry pump is running.

1. Discharge Through Boom:

Flow is through boom with no flow throughclosed recirculation valve (Figure 2). Flowthrough boom is controlled by engaging anddisengaging slurry pump clutch. Do not use thedischarge valve to control distance. Valveshould be either completely open or complete-ly closed. Control the spray volume and spraydistance by adjusting the engine RPM.

2. Extension Hose Through Boom:

Flow is through boom with no flow throughclosed recirculation valve (Figure 2).Extension hose is connected to boom and flowis controlled by engaging and disengagingpump clutch, or controlling the speed of theengine.

Figure 2

DANGER: Do not use remote valve in this application.

3. Extension Hose or Hose ReelThrough Remote Port:

Flow is through recirculation with no flowthrough closed discharge valve (Figure 3).Flow through extension hose is controlled byengaging and disengaging slurry pump clutch,or by remote valve at end of hose. Open recir-culation valve allows flow back into tank.

Figure 3

DANGER: Recirculation valve must be open and material flowing backinto tank when using a remote valve. A closed or pluggedrecirculation line will cause extreme heat resulting in damageand/or bodily injury.

STARTING PROCEDURE:

CAUTION: See safety section of the manual (pages 2-4) before operatingthe machine.

Before starting, open the recirculation valve, close discharge valve, disengage clutch, and place the agitatorcontrol in the neutral position.

1 Set throttle about 1/4 open.

2 Turn key counter clockwise and hold it until the glow plug indicator light goes out.

3 While holding in the safety switch button, turn the key clockwise until the starter engages, and theengine starts.

4 Continue to hold the safety switch in for approximately 10 seconds. Allow engine to warm up for 3to 5 minutes.

NOTE: This engine has a safety system which will shut the engine off if theengine oil pressure drops below 7 psi or if the water temperaturereaches 230˚ Fahrenheit (110˚ Centigrade).

AREA COVERAGE - MATERIAL CAPACITY:

To determine the coverage per load for any HydroSeeder®, three questions must be answered prior to theapplication. First, is the job to be done “one step” (which is when the seed, fertilizer and mulch are appliedproportionally per load) or “two step” (which is when the seed and fertilizer are applied alone and then cov-ered by mulch as a second operation)? Second, at what rates (usually in pounds per 1000 square feet, orpounds per acre) are the seeding materials to be applied? Finally, what are the loading capacities of theHydroSeeder®?

Application rates vary for different geographic locations, but in general, seed is applied at 6-10 pounds per1000 square feet; fertilizer is applied at a rate of approximately 400 pound per acre; and fiber mulch is appliedat 1500 to 2000 pounds per acre. (Note: There are 43,560 square feet in an acre). Local agronomists, agri-cultural extension agents, or soil and water conservation officials should be contacted for more specific infor-mation on application rates for a given area.

The following tables show loading versus coverage rates for the Finn HydroSeeder®. Table A shows rates for“one step” applications. The coverage area is determined by the fiber mulch capacity of the HydroSeeder®,and the rate at which it is applied. Table B shows the area coverage when seeding only, where little or nomulch is applied. The coverage area is determined by the granular solids capacity of the HydroSeeder®, andthe rate at which the solids are applied.

LOADING (For wood fiber mulch, if liming see page 19):

CAUTION: Take care not to lose pens, lighters, etc. from shirt pockets ordrop pieces of paper or plastic bags into the tank, as these mightplug the slurry system.

1. With clutch disengaged and agitator control in the neutral position, start engine and allow it to warmup (See starting procedure page 12).

2. Start filling the unit with water. When water reaches the top of the agitator shaft, move agitatorcontrol to full reverse position.

Fill the tank with water from any stream or pond using a fill pump. When filling from a pondor stream be sure to use a suction strainer to filter out contaminants which could damage thepump and unit. Other sources of water:

1. Any pressure source, eg. fire hydrant. This unit is supplied with a 6” air gap fill portbut it is necessary to consult with local authorities before using water main in order toabide to all local ordinances.

2. Water tanker.

3. Piping System Cleanout Procedure (Purging Line):

A. Remove discharge nozzle and gasket from discharge boom.

B. Aim discharge boom assembly into an open area away from any persons, obstructions or highvoltage power lines.

C. Open discharge valve and close recirculation valve.

D. Increase engine speed to approximately 1/2 to 3/4.

E. Engage clutch with a firm snap. Do NOT slip clutch.

F. When discharge stream is clear, open recirculation valve and close discharge valve. Afterrecirculation stream is clear disengage clutch.

G. Replace gasket in discharge boom.

4. Continue filling tank with water.

5. Increase engine speed to full RPM.

6. Start loading dry material, loading the lightest material first. Agitator control should be in fullreverse for mixing.

A. Seed - Cut the seed bag and dump contents into the slurry tank. (When using inoculant, addit in the tank along with the seed.) When using quick swelling seeds load them just prior toapplication.

B. Wood Fiber Mulch - Empty the entire bag in or cut bag and drop in the sections of fiber. Theamount of mulch to be used should be loaded by the time the water level is at 3/4 full. Ifagitator stalls or a high pitch squeal comes from the hydraulic system, reverse agitation toforward for a moment to clear the obstruction, then return agitation to reverse.

CAUTION: Hydraulic system will overheat if agitator shaft is jammed forextended period. This will damage hydraulic oil and systemcomponents.

C. Fertilizer - Stand over hatch opening and drop the bag onto the bagcutter. Grasp both ends of thebag and dump material.

D. All other additives - Consult with manufacturer for proper loading technique.

7. When all materials are loaded and in suspension, and the tank is full, move the agitator to neutral thenfull speed forward to insure all material is mixed. It may be necessary to change the agitator directionmore than once to insure a thorough mixture.

8. After material is thoroughly mixed, slow agitator in forward direction to 1/2 to 3/4 speed or enough tocreate movement in all of the corners of the tank. Do not over agitate the slurry. Always dischargethe material with the agitator control in forward position.

9. Close the hatch lid on the slurry tank.

NOTE: The slurry should not be recirculated for more than 15 minutesprior to discharge to reduce wear and keep seed from swelling.

NOTE: If foaming occurs, reduce agitator speed.

PRIOR TO APPLICATION:

1. Operator should familiarize self with area to be seeded and develop a plan to insure uniform application.

2. Develop a plan for communication between operator and driver of the carrying or towing vehicle tosignal for start, stop, turn, etc. through the use of the signal horn.

3. Operator takes up position on the platform. From this point application will be controlled by the useof the clutch, valve, discharge assembly and throttle.

DISCHARGE NOZZLE SELECTION:

Nozzles are stored in the tool box. This HydroSeeder® is equipped with 4 nozzles - two long distance and tworibbon fan nozzles. The smaller long distance nozzle is generally better suited for seed, fertilizer and/or limeapplication while the large long distance nozzle is better for wood fiber mulch application. Both of the ribbonfan nozzles are generally suited for both types of application.

Nozzle Distance Width Discharge Time

APPLICATION OF SLURRY:

I. General Application Techniques

DANGER: Do not spray toward power lines, transformers or other highvoltage conductors.

CAUTION: The driver of the carrying vehicle should remain alert forhazards to the operator, such as low power lines, hangingbranches, etc. Driver should never start or stop abruptly.

1. Determine which nozzle would best suit the application needs according to the nozzle selectionchart on page 16.

2. Application of seed, fertilizer and lime: Elevate discharge nozzle no less than 10˚ above the area tobe sprayed, allowing the slurry to gently rain onto the seed bed.

3. Application of wood and paper fiber: Whenever possible aim the stream towards the ground tocreate a surface with small pock marks which help get seed in contact with ground. Do not allowthe stream to blast away the surface of the seed bed.

4. Generally the most remote area of the seed bed should be covered first. Distance is controlled byengine speed and nozzle selection. Do NOT partially close the valve to control the distance.

5. While moving along area to be seeded, the operator should move the nozzle back and forth in a slow,even arc.

6. If application is to be interrupted for a short period of time, leave the valves open and disengage theclutch. Re-engage the clutch to continue application.

7. It may be necessary to slow the agitator as the tank empties to reduce foaming.

II. DISCHARGE THROUGH THE BOOM:

1. Move the discharge valve handle to the open position, the recirculation valve handle to the closedposition, and engage the clutch. At this time, should the operator want to stop spraying for a shortperiod, disengage the clutch; then re-engage to continue spraying.

2. When the tank is empty, or when discontinuing discharge for an extended period of time, disengagethe clutch, then immediately move the discharge valve to the closed position, and idle the engine.This will maintain moisture in the discharge piping and help prevent plugging. Move the agitatorcontrol to the neutral position.

III. PROCEDURES WHEN USING HOSES:

Always pump clear water through the hose before pumping mulch. If the inside hose liner is dry, it willdewater the mulch causing plugging.

A. PUMP TAKE OFF SYSTEM OR HOSE REEL WITH REMOTE VALVE :

1. Open recirculation valve and close discharge valve and close remote valve at the end of the hose.

2. Engage clutch. When stream is flowing freely through the recirculation line, open the pump takeoff valve.

CAUTION: The high pressure on the hose can exert strong forces causinghose operator to lose control of hose or footing. The hose willrequire additional holders on slopes. Open the pump take offvalve and the remote valve slowly and only after the hoseoperator is firmly positioned and has firm control of hose.

3. With the engine at 3/4 speed, open the remote valve at the end of the hose to discharge the load.

4. When finished spraying, close the remote valve, disengage the clutch, and stop the engine. If usingfiber mulch, retain as much water as possible in the hose by elevating the ends or by coupling theends together.

5. If another load is to be done, see reloading procedure on page 19. If finished for the day, follow theclean up procedure and flush out the hose.

DANGER: The recirculation valve must be open when using a remotevalve. If not open, extreme heat which will cause damageand/or bodily injury will occur.

B. EXTENSION HOSE SYSTEM - WITHOUT REMOTE VALVE:

1. Connect the extension hose into the end of the discharge boom.

2. A person controlling the end of the hose directs a second operator at the machine to control theclutch and adjust the engine speed.

CAUTION: Since the extension hose will be seeing the full output of thepump with the recirculation closed, the equipment operator andindividual at the end of the hose should exercise extreme carewhen operating unit on high pressure. The high pressure on thehose can exert strong forces causing hose operator to losecontrol of hose or footing. The hose will require additionalholders on slopes. Engage the clutch only after the hoseoperator is firmly positioned and has firm control of hose.

3. When hose operator is ready signal the second operator to engage clutch and slowly increase theengine RPM until the desired discharge pressure is reached.

4. When finished spraying, disengage the clutch, stop the engine, and close the discharge valve. Ifusing fiber mulch, retain as much water as possible in the hose by elevating the ends or by couplingthe ends together.

5. If another load is to be done, see reloading procedure on page 19. If finished for the day, followclean up procedure and flush out the hose.

RELOADING PROCEDURE:

1. Start at step 2 in loading procedure on page 15.

2. After last load of the day refer to the cleaning and maintenance section of the manual on pages 20-21.

LIMING WITH THE HydroSeeder®:

In using large concentrations of granular solids through the HydroSeeder®, it is advisable to keep theslurry moving through the pump at all times. This keeps the solids from settling in the lines, and creatinga stoppage. This unit was designed for the application of agricultural grade lime only.

PROCEDURE:

1. With clutch disengaged and agitator control in neutral position, start engine and allow it to warm up(see starting procedure on page 12)

2. Start filling the unit with water. When water reaches the top of the agitator shaft move agitatorcontrol to approximately 1/2 speed reverse.

3. Open both the recirculation and discharge valves.

4. Remove the discharge nozzle and gasket from the discharge boom.

5. Aim the discharge boom assembly into an open area away from any persons, obstructions or highvoltage power lines.

6. Move the throttle to approximately 1/2 engine speed.

7. Engage the clutch, and move the throttle to full engine speed. A stream of water should be comingfrom the end of the recirculation pipe beside the hatch opening, as well as from the boom.

8. As soon as both streams are clear, close the discharge valve and make sure water is beingrecirculated back to the tank.

9. Decrease throttle to 3/4 speed. Increase agitator speed to full reverse. DO NOT DISENGAGECLUTCH!

10. 20 pounds of granular solids displaces approximately 1 gallon of water. When filling the tank withwater the volume of granular solids must be accounted for. For example; If using the maximumrecommended capacity of 2500 pounds for a T90, 125 gallons (2500 / 20) would have to besubtracted from the total tank capacity (940 gallons - 125 gallons = 815 gallons). If 1000 poundsof solids were used, 50 gallons (1000 / 20) would have to be subtracted (940 gallons - 50 gallons =890 gallons). Using the T120 maximum recommended capacity of 3200 pounds, 160 gallons (3200/ 20) would have to subtracted (1180 gallons - 160 gallons = 1020 gallons).

11. Fill the tank to the required capacity for the rate of granular solids to be applied.

12. Load the material (see “Loading” page 15, steps 5-8).

13. When ready to apply slurry, install gasket and nozzle into boom.

14. Move agitator control to 3/4 speed, forward.

15. With the clutch still engaged, open the discharge valve.

CAUTION: To decrease pump wear and increase discharge distance, itmay now be desirable to close the recirculation valve.However, the recirculation valve must be open BEFOREclosing the discharge valve if the application of slurry is to beinterrupted. Extreme heat, which will cause damage and/orbodily injury, will occur if both valves are closed.

16. Apply the slurry (see “Application of Slurry” pages 17-18).

17. If another load is to be applied, start again at step “1”. If finished, follow the clean-up procedure.

PUMP MAINTENANCE SECTION: (Reference Figures 5 and 6)

CAUTION: Pump maintenance to be done only while engine is notrunning, and battery cables are disconnected.

A. FACTORY-TOLERANCES.

1. To check pump tolerances loosen the two clamps on the pump suction piping and remove the inletelbow. Through the pump suction hole, insert a feeler gauge between the pump impeller (3) and thesuction cover (1). This measurement on a new pump is between .040-.045 of an inch (1.00-1.15mm).

B. IMPELLER CLEARANCE - To bring the pump back to proper tolerance, proceed as follows:

1. Push suction cover (1) into casing (5) until suction cover hits impeller (3). Impeller should be infull contact with suction cover.

2. Tighten cap screws (5B) finger tight. Impeller should rub the suction cover and not turn easilythrough one revolution.

3. Tighten cap screws (1B) to 15 lb. ft.(165 kg/m). Impeller should turn freely through one revolution.

4. Back off cap screws (5B) 3/4 turn.

5. Tighten cap screws (1B) 3/4 turn and tighten nuts (1N) to 15 lb.ft.(165 kg/m).

6. Tighten cap screws (5B) to 15 lb. ft. clearance gap should be about .040 inches (1.00 mm). Checkto see if impeller turns freely through one revolution.

NOTE: Tightening of the cap screws should be in a criss-cross pattern.DO NOT TIGHTEN TO OVER 15 LB. FT. (2.07 kg/m). Doing socan crack the flange of the suction cover.

C. CLEANING.

1. To clean pump impeller (3), loosen the two victaulic pipe clamps and remove the suction pipeassembly. The eye of the impeller can then be seen through the suction cover plate (1) and isreadily accessible for cleaning.

2. To remove impeller, remove the eight bolts (5B) holding the suction cover (1) in place. Removesuction cover, being careful not to damage the O-Ring gasket (2).

3. Take the impeller wrench, which is stored in the toolbox, and position it so that the hole is alignedwith any of the eight tapped holes in the front of the pump casing (5). The 90˚ leg of the wrenchshould face in towards the impeller and be positioned between any two of the impeller fins. Boltthe wrench securely in place with one of the suction cover bolts (5B). Using a pipe wrench on theshaft (11), unscrew the impeller turning the shaft in a clockwise direction. Be careful not to unscrewthe impeller too far before removing the puller wrench.

D. INSTALLING NEW SEAL ASSEMBLY (#4) (Do not unwrap the new seal assembly until youare ready to install. All parts of the assembly are packed in sequence of installation.)

1. To replace the seal assembly (4), perform the above operations under cleaning and remove pumpcasing (5) by removing the three bolts (10B) holding the casing to the clutch housing (10).

2. After cleaning all parts including pump shaft, begin the reassembly of the pump. Install seal greaseretainer (6) with the cavity portion of the seal facing outward. Rebolt the casing onto the clutchhousing using the three cap screw (10B). Using a light oil lubricant (3 in 1), install the ceramic seatwith its neoprene holder into the seal recess making sure it is square with the shaft. Lubricate theinside of the bellows assembly with a light oil and check to be sure the steel ring is stuck (glued) tothe end of the assembly. Slide the bellows assembly onto the shaft and push till the steel ring isagainst the ceramic seat.

3. Install the seal spring on the hub of the impeller. After coating the threads on the pump shaft withan anti-seize compound, install the impeller - seating it securely.

4. Utilizing the rubber O-Ring gasket (2) reinstall suction cover using the eight cover bolts (5B). Atthis time, check to see that the pump runs freely. If the impeller rubs the cover plate, you do nothave the impeller tight on the shaft or the cover plate needs readjustment - see “impeller clearance”.Tighten these bolts uniformly using 15 ft. pounds (2.07 kg/m) on the torque wrench.

5. After reinstalling the suction pipe assembly, lubricate and tighten the victaulic clamps. Service theautomatic lubricator.

CLUTCH MAINTENANCE SECTION: (Reference Figures 5 and 6)

CAUTION: Clutch maintenance to be done only while engine is notrunning, and battery cables are disconnected.

A. ADJUSTMENT - If the clutch does not pull, overheats, or the clutch operating lever jumps out, theclutch must be adjusted. Proceed as follows:

1. Remove the hand hole nameplate (10A) in the housing (10) and rotate the clutch until the adjustinglock collar and lock screw (28) can be reached. Remove or disengage the adjusting lock (28) beingcareful not to drop it into the housing.

2. Turn the adjusting ring (27) counter clockwise to obtain recommended operating lever pressure.

HANDLE PRESSURE:

Variation in handle length directly affects the pressure required at the handle for properclutch adjustment. See the table below to determine the correct handle pressure.

Reference PressureClutch Size Handle Length at Lever

7-1/2” 7-5/8” 110-130#

IMPORTANT: A new clutch generally requires several adjustments until thefriction surfaces are worn in. Do not let a clutch slip as this willglaze the friction plates and may ruin them.

B. LUBRICATION.

1. Lubricant: Use any high grade, Lithium Base #2, short fiber grease having an operating tempera-ture of 200˚ F (93˚ C), recommended for roller bearings may be used.

IMPORTANT: Do not mix Sodium or Calcium base grease with Lithium grease.

2. Anti-Friction Bearings: Shaft bearings should be lubricated after each 50 hours of operationthrough fittings (41) with a short fiber, high grade, high temperature, Lithium Base #2 lubricanthaving an operating temperature of 200˚ F (93˚ C). Use the same lubricant to occasionallylubricate the two fittings at the cross shaft (26).

3. Clutch Lever and Linkage: Levers and linkage should be lubricated with engine oil after every 500hours of operation.

IMPORTANT: Lubricate sparingly to avoid oil on clutch facings.

C. REMOVAL OF CLUTCH/PUMP FROM ENGINE.

1. Remove the pump section completely as described under Cleaning and Seal Installation sections onpage 27.

2. Engage the clutch handle, atop the operator’s platform, to hold clutch facings in place whenremoving the clutch from the engine. Unbolt the rod which connects the clutch operating lever tothe operator’s platform clutch handle.

3. Attach a suitable lifting device to the clutch/pump frame housing (10). Remove the hex head capscrews that secure the clutch housing to the engine flywheel housing and the two bolts holding thehousing to the HydroSeeder® frame.

IMPORTANT: Caution should be exercised when removing the clutch/pumphousing from the engine so that the facings and pilot bearing arenot damaged.

4. Support the housing assembly on blocks with the output end of the shaft down.

5. Remove the hand hole nameplate (10A) from the housing for improved access to internal parts.

D. CLUTCH FACING PLATES (ITEM 30) REPLACEMENT: A common indication that thefacings’ friction surface is worn out is that the adjusting ring cannot be turned any tighter. To replacethe facing plates remove the clutch/pump from the engine as described above and proceed as follows:

1. Disengage the clutch operating lever and remove the old facing plates (30).

2. Insert the new facing plates (three segments) in between the clutch body (34) and the pressure plate(29), and center the facings as close as possible.

3. Lock the clutch facings between the pressure plates as follows:

A. Remove the drive ring (31) from the engine flywheel so that it can be used to center the facings.

B. With the clutch assembly resting on a workbench, turn the clutch adjusting ring COUNTER-CLOCKWISE until the pressure plate (29) almost contacts the clutch facing (30).

C. Place clutch driving ring over clutch facings with teeth in driving ring in mesh with teeth ofclutch facings, and locate the driving ring centrally relative to the pressure plate and clutchbody.

NOTE: If driving ring is not properly located relative to the pressure plateand clutch body, the clutch cannot be assembled to the flywheel asthe teeth of clutch facings will not enter the teeth of driving ringeven though the clutch drive shaft enters the pilot bearing.

D. Engage the clutch by applying pressure on top of release sleeve and collar assembly (20) andlock clutch facings between the pressure plate and clutch body. If clutch facings are still freeto move, disengage the clutch and turn adjusting ring COUNTER-CLOCKWISE just enough tolock the clutch facings in place when clutch is engaged.

NOTE: The clutch must now be engaged until the clutch assembly is attached tothe engine.

4. Remove clutch driving ring (31) from the clutch facings and attach it to the flywheel with thespecified bolts and lock washers.

5. Before re-installing clutch onto engine lubricate the release sleeve (21) through the grease fittingmounted on its side.

6. To re-install the clutch/pump assembly onto the engine, reverse the procedure outline under C.Removal of Clutch/Pump from engine on page 28.

7. When clutch/pump are re-installed check handle engage pressure and adjust if necessary.

TROUBLE SHOOTING YOUR HydroSeeder®:Because of the tremendous work load usually placed upon the HydroSeeder®, minor malfunctions willoccur from time to time. If these are not remedied immediately, they could lead to poor performance anddamage to the equipment. This section describes possible problems and the action to correct them.

1. Foam in the tank and air entrainment.

The mixture of dry materials with water will sometimes cause excessive foaming while others willcause air entrainment. This is noticed primarily in the erratic discharge and a drop in pressure anddistance.

Some solutions are:

A. As the slurry level drops in the tank, slow the agitator.

B. Add 2 or 3 ounces (4 to 6 cl) of an antifoaming agent to the tank.

C. If you can determine which additive is causing the air problem, either add it last or not at all -unless it’s the water.

D. Limit recirculation time as much as possible.

2. Plugging or clogging:

DANGER: Turn off engine and disconnect battery cables before workingon equipment. Serious injury or death can result from movingparts or high pressure spray.

Sometimes when a stoppage occurs, you will not be able to find anything in the line. When thishappens, it means that the system became airbound instead of plugged. To remedy this, see“Foaming”. Plugging can occur in any one of four places; the valve and recirculation nozzle, thedischarge nozzle, the pump area and the sump area. The plugging is caused by either foreign objectsor dewatered fiber.

A. Obstruction in the discharge nozzle is determined by a change or stoppage of the spray pattern.

a) Disengage clutch.

b) Remove the nozzle.

c) Clear the nozzle with the nozzle cleaning rod attached to the underside of the guard rail.

DANGER: Severe injury can result from opening clamps when piping ishot. Before loosening any clamps, determine if the pipe is hot.If so, let it cool before attempting repair.

B. If the recirculation system is not working:

a) Disengage the clutch and shut down the engine.

b) Remove the two clamps on each side of the recirculation valve.

c) Slide the rubber seals back and remove the valve assembly.

d) Check the valve assembly, the recirculation nozzle in the discharge pipe, and the recircula-tion pipe going into the tank. Clear any obstructions.

e) Replace the valve assembly and slide the seals back into place. Lubricate the outside of theseals.

f) Replace the clamps.

3. Obstruction in the pump, which can be determined by a drop in pressure. If the drop in pressure isaccompanied by a frothy or whitish discharge stream, the blockage is in the suction line or sumparea. To clear the pump:

A. Disengage the clutch and stop the engine.

B. Loosen the suction pipe clamps. If there is material in the tank, shut off the suction line valve

C. Remove the clamp closest to the pump.

NOTE: If no water comes out, it means that the obstruction is in the sumparea.

E. Reach into the pump and remove the obstruction. If it is jammed, the pump suction cover mayhave to be removed.

F. Reassemble removing pipe “plug” in process.

G. Open suction line valve.

4. Obstruction in the sump area, which is located at the bottom of the tank on the inside where thesuction pipe is attached:

A. The easiest way to clear the sump is to back flush through the discharge plumbing with the watersupply hose.

B. Another method is to remove the drain plug and run a long pole through the opening and intothe sump area. Remove the obstruction and replace the drain cap.

C. Use a pipe or pole through the loading hatch opening to dislodge the obstruction.
