4 USER’S INSTRUCTIONS
4.1 TRANSPORTING AND MOVING THE MACHINE
If the machine has to be lifted, use suitable slinging and tackle, crane or
bridge crane, with capacity suitable for the use. The dry weight of the machine
at the maximum level of fitting and with all the accessories allowed is
stamped on the nameplate; use slings and lifting gear with a adequate load-
bearing capacity.
Don’t stand the sprayer on soft ground or steep slopes.
Never lift or move the sprayers by hand if there is liquid in the tank. The
machine will weigh more and the movement of the liquid can change the
centre of gravity causing uncontrolled movements.
It is opportune to apply the slinging as in FIG.2 for the MASTER 55 model or
those equipped with eyebolts. It is necessary to use forklift trucks or transpallets
with an adequate capacity for other models. The forks should be placed as
indicated in the specific pictograms.
Don’t pass or stand under the machine when it is being lifted.
4.2 DESCRIPTION OF THE MACHINE
The UMP and MASTER machines are made to be mounted on the floor of the
pickup vehicle. Some models can be equipped with wheels and handlebar for
towing by hand or by small tractors.
The frame is in hot galvanised steel, the cisterns are in easy-to-empty organic
glass reinforced with glass fibre. Versions are available with the cistern in
galvanised or stainless steel.
The pumps are generally membrane and in some cases piston and are coaxially
mounted with an electric or internal combustion engine reducer.
They are equipped with an external suction filter that allows easy inspection.
All the machines are equipped with a hose nozzle for watering and/or washing
with a length of tubing.
4.2.1 HAND WASHING TANKS
The sprayers are supplied with an auxiliary hand-washing tank with clean
water and a hand tap.
This tank must always be supplied with water and the inside must be clean so
you can wash any parts of the body that come into contact with the chemical
product used.
Never drink the liquid inside.
