Suggestions for cleaning and maintaining agricultural sprayers

Since agricultural sprayers are often exposed to pesticides, effective cleaning and maintenance are the key to ensuring long-term stable operation and extending the service life of the equipment. Here are some cleaning and maintaining suggestions:

1. Cleaning frequency:

The agricultural sprayers should be cleaned after each use to prevent pesticide residues from clogging the nozzles or corroding metal parts.

2. Cleaning agent selection:

Use suitable cleaning agent, such as water or a specific cleaning solution recommended by the manufacturer, to avoid damage to the machine material.

3. Nozzle and filtration system:

Focus on cleaning the nozzle and filtration system, as these parts are most prone to clogging. You can use a soft brush or compressed air to clean the nozzle, and replace the filter regularly.

4. Inside the medicine box:

Clean the inside of the medicine box thoroughly to prevent pesticide residues from accumulating on the inner walls of the box. Warm water and a neutral detergent can be used to help remove stubborn stains.

5. Metal parts:

For metal parts, use rust inhibitor or apply protective oil to prevent corrosion caused by pesticides.

6. Inspection and maintenance:

Check all connections, seals and pumps regularly to ensure there is no leakage or wear. Worn parts should be replaced in time.

7. Dry storage:

After cleaning, ensure the agricultural sprayers are completely dry before storing to prevent rust caused by moisture.

8. Regular maintenance:

Perform regular maintenance according to the manufacturer's recommendations, including changing oil, checking drive belts, lubricating moving parts, etc.

9. Operation manual: 

Follow the maintenance guidelines and recommendations in the operation manual to ensure proper maintenance of the equipment.

Through these cleaning and maintenance measures, the risk of corrosion and blockage can be effectively reduced, ensuring good performance of the agricultural sprayers and extending its service life.
