IMPORTANT: Do not use the vehicle’s PTO con-
trol to control the spraying action. When the PTO
is disengaged, the pump stops turning, all agitation
of the chemical stops and the sprayer loses system
pressure. Use the MASTER on/off switch of the
boom section switches to control spraying action.
Anti-Siphon Fill Assembly
When filling the sprayer tank, make sure that
the anti-siphon holes in the side of the tube are
clear and open. The anti-siphon device pre-
vents the solution in the tank form infiltrating
into the fresh water source and contaminating
it.
Your Locke Turf Sprayer tank is filled form the top
through a standard 1-1/2” Cam-Lock coupler.
1. To fill the tank, first make sure that the tank
drain valve is closed. Open the knife valve on
the fill assembly.
2. Connect the fresh water hose to the quick-fill
camlock coupler. Make sure that the anti-
siphon holes in the side of the fill tube are clear
and open.
3. Turn the water on and fill the tank. Do not al-
low the tank to fill unattended. When filled,
close the knife valve.
4. Clean and fill the handwash tank.
Adding Chemicals to the Tank
Read the manufacturer’s label carefully before
handling chemicals. When you add the chemi-
cal, follow the manufacturer’s instructions for
mixing the spray solution in order to achieve
the desired application rate. Always wear re-
quired protective gear.
1. Before adding chemical to the tank, make sure
the tank is at least half full and the pump and
agitation is operating. The concentrate should
not be poured into an empty tank as this may
clog the tank lines.
2. Keep the spray solution form skin. Wear pro-
tective clothing and goggles. If the solution
comes in contact with the body, wash off the
contaminated area with soap and water.
3. Keep chemical containers low when pouring.
4. Do not smoke while handling chemicals.
CAUTION
CAUTION
Using Handwash Tank
In the event when an accident occurs and chemical
comes in contact with skin or eyes, use the hand-
wash tank to flush away the chemical.
1. Open the tank valve and use the hose to direct
the clean water on all contaminated areas.
Wash all areas of skin that have been contami-
nated with soap and water. To flush out eyes,
point the hose and water stream upward while
lowering eyes into the stream of following wa-
ter.
2. Close the tank valve and refill the handwash
tank with fresh water.
3. Clean and refill the handwash tank with fresh
water each time the sprayer is used. Always
keep the handwash tank clean.
Operating the Filter
Your Locke Turf Sprayer is equipped with a Tee Jet
filter to remove unwanted particles from the systme
and prevent the hoses from becoming clogged.
The filter is located on the output line of the cen-
trifugal pump and before the manual pressure ad-
justment valve. It filters the chemical solution being
sprayed.
To clean out the filter, unscrew the main body, re-
move screen and clean with clear water.
Driving and Parking
1. Park your sprayer in an area where you will not
hit power lines, building, etc. when boom is
folded.
Contact with electrical power lines can cause
death by electrocution.
2. Don’t leave the sprayer unattended in an area
where unauthorized persons may tamper with
the sprayer, tank contents or controls.
3. Don’t leave a filled sprayer without tagging or
somehow identifying the contents. Someone
may mistake a chemical filled tank for water
and spray unwanted areas. Do not exceed 20
mph transporting your sprayer.
4. Do not unnecessarily transport sprayer while
filled with chemical mixture.
