Operator safety
Watch for his symbol . It means WARNING, CAUTION,
NOTE. Your safety is involved so be alert!
Note the following recommended precautions and safe operating
practices.
Read and understand this instruction book before using the
equipment. It is equally important that other operators of this
equipment read and understand this book.
Pressure test with clean water prior to filling with chemicals.
Wear protective clothing.
Rinse and wash equipment after use and before servicing.
Depressurize equipment after use and before servicing.
Never service or repair the equipment whilst it is operating.
Disconnect electrical power before servicing.
Always replace all safety devices or shields immediately after

Description
The HARDI LZ models are designed for the application of crop protec-
tion chemicals and liquid fertilizers.
They consist of a pump, frame with 800, 1000 or 1200 litre tanks, Self-
Cleaning Filter, EC operating unit, LHZ 12, 15, 16, 18, 20, 21 or 24
metre fully hydraulic operated spray boom and transmission shaft.
The design of the diaphragm pump is simple, with easily accessible
diaphragms and valves that ensures liquid does not contact the vital
parts of the pump.
The tank, made of impact-proof and chemical resistant polyethylene,
has a purposeful design with no sharp corners, for easy cleaning.
The EC operating unit consists of: on/off valve, pressure control valve
with built-in HARDI-MATIC, pressure gauge and distribution valves
with pressure equalization.
HARDI-MATIC ensures a constant volume per ha of the liquid at
varying speed in the same gear. The number of revolutions on the
P.T.O. must be kept between 300-600 r/min.
With the Self-Cleaning Filter the impurities that exist in the spray liquid
will by-pass the filter and be recirculated back to the tank via the return
to tank.
The LHZ spray boom is fully hydraulic folded and operated. Individual
folding of right and left outer sections enable alternative boom widths.
Individual boom tilt function for right and left side adapts boom height
to slopping terrain. Slanting control for trapeze suspension compen-
sates for driving on hillsides. All functions are controlled by Direct
Acting Hydraulic system (D.A.H.). The outer sections incorporate
spring loaded breakaway.
Identification plates
An identification plate fitted on the frame and pump is to indicate
model, year of production with serial number and country of origin.
Boom centre frame, and inner/outer sections also have identification
plates indicating boom type and part no. of steel parts. If ordering
spare parts, inform your dealer of these so the right model and version
are described.

Connecting the sprayer
The sprayer is designed for three point
suspension and is equipped with 28 mm
pivots (cat. II). Pivots can be relocated to
suit the tractor.
WARNING: Note the weight of the sprayer.
Generally it is recommended to:
1. Add ballast to front of tractor.
2. Travel at slower speeds when driving
with a full tank. (The tractor braking
effect will be reduced.)
4. Be careful when filling / lifting the sprayer
for the first time.
Hydraulics
Hydraulic connection requires one double acting outlet for the D.A.H.
system. A single outlet and return can also be used. The hydraulic
hoses are marked with an arrow to indicate direction of oil flow.
The D.A.H. system requires an oil flow between 10 to 90 litres per
minute and a min. pressure of 130 bar. The system has a built-in flow
regulator that maintains constant speed on hydraulic movements.
Before operating the hydraulics, the clip at the distribution valve
(situated at front of tank) should be set for OPEN or CLOSED CEN-
TRE tractor hydraulics.
Most tractors have OPEN CENTRE hydraulics and the valve must be
open for continuous oil circulation. For CLOSED CENTRE hydraulics
(e.g. JOHN DEERE) the clip must hold the valve closed so oil only
circulates when hydraulic movements are required.

Control boxes and power supply
Power requirement is 12 V DC. Note polarity!
For EC: Brown pos. (+), Blue neg. (-).
For D.A.H.: White pos. (+), Black neg. (-).
The control boxes for EC-
operating unit and for D.A.H.
are fitted in the tractor cabin at
a convenient place. See
section on Assembly for initial
mounting.
The wires must have a cross-
sectional area of at least 4.0
mm2to ensure sufficient power
supply.
For the EC-operating unit the
tractor circuit should have a 8
Amp fuse and for the D.A.H. a
16 Amp fuse.
Use the HARDI Electric distri-
bution box (No. 817925) if the
tractor has a doubtful power
supply.
Rear lights (if fitted)
Connect plug for rear lights to the tractors 7-poled socket and check
that rear lights, stop lights and turning indicators function.
Transmission shaft
When connecting the sprayer to the tractor the length of the transmis-
sion shaft should be checked and if necessary shortened. There
should be at least 20 mm free play between the male and female parts
when the shaft is horizontal.
8
To ensure long life of the transmis-
sion shaft, try to avoid working
angles greater than 15°.
It is important for the
personal safety of the
operator that the
transmission shaft is
intact.
The protection guards
must cover the whole
shaft. This includes the
universal cross covers
at each end of the
shaft. The chains are
connected so that the
protection guards do
not rotate with the
shaft.
Roadworthyness
When driving on public roads and other areas where the highway code
applies, or areas where there are special rules and regulations for
marking and lights on implements, you should observe these and
equip implements accordingly.
Operating instructions
Operating of the boom
WARNING: BEFORE UNFOLDING THE BOOM IT IS IMPORTANT
THAT THE SPRAYER IS CONNECTED TO THE TRACTOR TO
PREVENT OVERBALANCING.
BE CAUTIOUS WITH INITIAL USE OF THE HYDRAULIC SYS-
TEM; IF THERE IS AIR IN THE SYSTEM THIS MAY CAUSE VIO-
LENT MOVEMENTS OF THE BOOM. THEREFORE TAKE CARE
THAT NO PERSONS OR OBJECTS ARE HURT OR DAMAGED
IN THE PROCESS OF TESTING.
9
First set the tractor’s hydraulic remote
control lever in position for correct direc-
tion of oil flow.
If the boom starts to rise either switch the
hydraulic hoses around or set the control
lever in the opposite position.
Boom manoeuvering is as follows.
A. Unfolding/folding of left outer section
B. Unfolding/folding of inner section
C. Unfolding/folding of right outer section
D. Boom tilt for left side
E. Boom tilt for right side
F. Raising and lowering of boom
G. Slanting of boom
Unfolding of boom
ENSURE THAT THE BOOMS ARE CLEAR FROM THE TRANSPORT
BRACKETS BEFORE UNFOLDING.
1. Push switch Fupward to lift the boom clear of the rear transport
brackets.
2. Push switch Dand Eupward to ensure boom sections are clear of
the front transport brackets.
10
3. Push switch Bupward to unfold the inner sections.
4. Push switch Aand Cupward to unfold outer sections.
5. Push switch Dand Edownward to lower right and left sections.
6. Push switch Fdownward to lower the boom to correct height above
crop or ground level.
CAUTION
The 3 upper functions, in the red rectangle with STOP sign, must only
be operated when sprayer is stationary.
Failure to do so will damage the boom.
Folding of boom
1. Raise boom Fto upper position.
2. Check the slanting function is midway G.
3. Fold outer sections, Aand C.
4. Raise right and left sections Dand E.
5. Fold inner sections B.
6. Lower boom Funtil boom rests on rear transport brackets.
7. Lower right and left boom sections until they rest the front transport
brackets Dand E.

Choice of restrictor
It is important to have a large flow through
the filter. This is achieved by choosing the
restrictor size in relation to the liquid con-
sumption of the spray boom.
