Fill AX1
How to fill liquids on AX-1
Important: The machine has a total of three tanks that must be filled with water before spraying can begin.
Filling the Clean Water Tank and Rinse Water Tank
Warning: Only water must be filled into these tanks.
The clean water tank and the rinse/dilution tank must be full of water at startup. Water is filled on the machine's right side. Two filling ports with screw caps are located under the side cover next to the generator. The left port is for the clean water tank. The right port is for the rinse and dilution tank. To minimize unnecessary water spillage, it is recommended to use a water hose for filling. (The generator can withstand some water splashes.)
Mixing Pesticide in the Spray Tank
CAUTION: Always ensure the tank strainer is placed in the tank’s filling opening during filling and operation. Make sure it rests evenly and flat on the flange.
The spray tank is operated from the machine’s left side, under the side cover. The tank lid is removed by turning it half a turn counterclockwise. The strainer must always be in place in the tank opening to filter out larger particles. The tank is filled with water through this opening.
Start by planning how much diluted pesticide is needed in the tank. Follow the label’s instructions for the mixing ratio between water and pesticide. Based on this, calculate the required amount of water.
The pesticide is mixed directly in the tank. First, pour in the water, and then add the correct amount of pesticide according to the water volume and mixing ratio.
Start the pump and let the spray liquid circulate for at least 3 minutes to ensure the water and pesticide mix thoroughly. This must be done before spraying can begin.
Fuel
Refueling is simple while the generator is mounted on the robot. Ensure the generator is turned off.
Use 4-stroke alkylate/environmental gasoline or gasoline with an octane rating of ≥ 95.
- Open the generator's fuel cap and place it in a clean area to avoid dirt entering the fuel tank when reattaching the cap.
- Pour gasoline into the generator's tank. If the fuel can has an attached hose or funnel, use it for easier filling.
- Stop filling before the tank is completely full to prevent overflow when screwing the cap back on.
- Screw the cap back on securely.
The generator is now ready to be started again
