! WARNING!

! CAUTION!

Important Safety Information

Handle Chemicals Properly▲ Read and follow Chemical Manu-

facturer’s instructions.▲ Protective clothing should be

worn.▲ Handle all chemicals with care. ▲ Agricultural chemicals can be

dangerous. Improper use can seriously injure persons, animals, plants, soil, and property.

▲ Inhaling smoke from any type of chemical fire is a serious health hazard.

▲ Store or dispose of unused chem-icals as specified by the chemical manufacturer.

▲ Before adding chemical to the tank, make sure tank is at least half full. Concentrate should not be poured into an empty tank.

▲ Never leave fill hose attached to the sprayer after filling tank. Chemicals in tank can siphon out of tank and contaminate freshwa-ter source.

▲ Always keep handwash tank filled with clean water and have soap available in case of an emergency. Flush any area of the body that is contaminated by chemicals imme-diately and thoroughly.

▲ Do not touch sprayer components with mouth or lips.

▲ If chemical is swallowed, carefully follow the chemical manufac-turer’s recommendations and con-sult with a doctor.

▲ If persons are exposed to a chem-ical in a way that could affect their health, consult a doctor immedi-ately with the chemical label or container in hand. Any delay could cause serious illness or death.

▲ Dispose of empty chemical con-tainers properly. By law rinsing of the used chemical container must be repeted three times. The con-tainer should then be punctured to prevent future use. An alternative is to jet-rinse or pressure rinse the container.

▲ Wash hands and face before eat-

ing when working with chemicals. Shower as soon as spraying is completed for the day.

▲ Spray only with acceptable wind conditions. Make sure wind drift of chemicals will not affect any sur-rounding land, people or animals.

▲ Never wash the sprayer tank out within 100 feet of any freshwater source or in a car wash.

▲ Rinse out the tank and spray rinse water on the last field sprayed.

Safety at All TimesThoroughly read and understand the instructions given in this manual and your operator’s manual before opera-tion. Refer to the “Important Safety Information” section in your operator’s manual.

Spraying Solutions Other Than WaterCalculations are based on spraying water, which weighs 8.34 pounds per US gallon. The following conversion fac-tors must be used when spraying solutions which are heavier or lighter than water. In order to determine the proper size nozzle for the solution to be sprayed, multiply the desired GPM or GPA of solution by the water rate con-version factor. Then use the new converted GPM or GPA rate to select the proper size nozzle.

ber of ounces caught is the exact number of gallons per acre you will apply with that perspective nozzle.

EXAMPLE #1: With a 20 inch spacing, it took 28 seconds to travel the 204 feet (refer to Table #1). Using a Meter-Cone™ 1.875 nozzle at 35 psi, the volume caught in 28 seconds was 21 ounces. This illustrates you would apply 21 gallons per acre with this nozzle.

EXAMPLE #2: With a 30 inch spacing, it took 15 seconds to travel 136 feet (refer to table #1). Using a TeeJet® XR11003 nozzle at 30 psi, the volume caught in 15 sec-onds was 13 ounces. This means you will apply 13 gallons per acre with the XR11003 nozzle at the same ground speed as when you drove the 136 feet.

Calibration Procedures

! DANGER!Read and follow chemical manufacturer’s instructions. Some chemicals and cause serious burns, lung damage and even death.

This method gives you the distance driven to cover 1/128 acre (because there are 128 ounces per gallon). The time required to drive that distance is measured first, and the volume of spray in ounces caught in the time you mea-sured is your application rate in gallons per acre. From the chart below, determine the distance to drive in the field (three runs are suggested) to obtain your average time in seconds. You will generally use 15, 20, or 30 inch nozzle spacing on standard booms.

1. Determine your nozzle size, spacing, and pressure to achieve your desired rate from the application guide.

2. Measure the nozzle spacing on your boom and deter-mine the distance to drive to calibrate your sprayer

3. Mark off the distance with two markers, and time how many seconds it takes to drive this distance at the speed you will be spraying at. Make sure you are at spraying speed when you cross both marks. Two or more runs are suggested with the sprayer half full. Simulate your field conditions to take into account wheel slippage.

4. With the sprayer filled with water (no chemical added), park in an open area with the booms unfolded. Prepare to collect samples at the individual nozzles.Turn on the pump and run it at the operation pressure. Flip on the boom section switch(es) on the control box and catch the water being sprayed out of the nozzle(s) you are calibrating.

5. Measure the volume of the sample in ounces over the time it took to travel the distance in Step #3. The num-

Alternate Sprayer Calibration Method

To double check the accuracy of your Great Plains Sprayer, the following instructions provide another method of calibration:

Step 1: Measure 200 feet and determine the number of seconds required to travel this distance under field condi-tions with implements in working condition.

EXAMPLE: It takes 27 seconds to travel the 200 feet which equals 5 mph.

Step 2: Place graduated container or pre-weighed con-tainer under one nozzle and catch the discharge for 1 minute. Divide 128 into the number of fluid ounces caught. 128 fluid ounces equals one gallon.

EXAMPLE: 64 ounces caught in one minute.

64.0 ÷ 128 = 0.50 gallons/minute

Step 3: Net determine your nozzle spacing in inches.

EXAMPLE: 1 nozzle every 40".

SOLUTION:

Gallons per acre = 5940 x Gallon per minute Nozzle spacing in inches x Miles Per Hour

GPA = 5940 x .5040 x 5

GPA = 2970 200

GPA = 14.9

The above information will assure you of a check for accu-rate application in the event there is an error in the gauge nozzle spacing, nozzle height, tractor speed or nozzle wear.

Worn Nozzles & Flow Table Informa-tion1. Determine nozzle size and desired spraying pressure

using this application guide.

2. Find fluid ounces per minute (OPM) in tables on page 8.

3. Catch flow at pressure desired for 1 minute (for large nozzles catch the flow for 30 seconds and multiply by 2).

4. If the OPM caught are within the + limit in the chart on page 6, the nozzle is accurate and G.P.A. charts should be followed.

5. If the nozzle is not within the + limit, check for obstruc-tions or wear in the orifices of the nozzle. Take the cap off the nozzle, clean the orifices with a toothpick or brush and retest. If several nozzles test the same, but

are not within the + limits, a faulty gauge may be the problem. If two or more nozzles are outside the limit, it is a good indication that all your nozzles may be worn. In this case, it would be advisable to replace ALL the nozzles with new nozzles.

Miles Per Hour CalibrationTo determine true ground speed, use the table below with the sprayer half-filled with water.

When measuring the MPH of your tractor, always simulate current field conditions as close as possible, taking care to account for wheel slippage.

See application chart when M.P.H. is obtained.

Great Plains Models AS-4, AS-6, & AS-8Mounting Instructions for Incorporation Equipment

• T-4 for 10’ to 15’ Widths• T-6 for 16’ to 23’ Widths• T-8 for 24’ to 32’ Widths

Step 1 Using 7” carriage bolts attach adjustable arm brack-ets on disc frame spaced and positioned according to the Great Plains Chart, page 28.Step 2 Insert 15” extension arm into adjustable arm brack-ets; set to clear disc frame, and tighten with square head set screw.Step 3 Insert adjustable swivel into 15” extension arm, and tighten with square head set screw.Step 4 Place special drop pipe through adjustable swivel collar and screw poly blind tee on to the end of special drop pipe.Step 5 Screw hose barb elbow in the back of the poly blind tee. Attach Great Plains MeterCone™ nozzle into front of ply blind tee, angling nozzle away from implement.Step 6 Mount manifold bracket on hydraulic cylinder or any other feasible place using 24” steel clamp, and attach me-

tered manifold.Step 7 Attach hose to hose barb on blind tee and tighten clamp.Step 8 Insert Great Plains recalibratable pressure gauge into top of manifold.Step 9 Make final check of broadcast coverage under field conditions. It may be necessary to make minor adjustments to assure accurate application.

Final Field Adjustment of NozzlesThe drawing below shows a top view of the large oval Great Plains MeterCone™ patterns.

The patterns should meet and overlap two inches, also the patterns should not be allowed to strike the braces or any other object before coming in contact with the soil.

a) The disc is cutting 4” deep and the nozzle height of 16” is measured from the ground under field conditions. Nozzle height is determined from Application Guide.

b) The MeterCone™ nozzle is angled forward to obtain better angular coverage. The desired angle is approximate-ly ten degrees forward perpendicular to the ground.
