Introduction
SET UP
The Model 1600H Prime Mover arrives from setup and ready for service. Depending on freight
conditions the tires, wheels and steering wheel may need to be installed.
The spray system is normally shipped attached to the 1600H Prime Mover. If a spray system is to be retrofitted
to a 1600H Prime Mover by a dealer or owner, assemble and attach the components in accordance with the
parts drawings in the Spray Star 1600H Parts/Service Manual.
1. Remove the top and sides from the shipping crate then remove the banding from the Spray Star.
Banding is under tension.
2. Lift front end using a hydraulic jack, taking care that the jack is
not placed in a location that would damage any steering system
components, install front wheels and torque nuts to 64-74 ft/lb
(87-100 Nm). Then raise rear axle using a hydraulic jack and
install rear wheels and tires, torque lug nuts to 64-74 ft/lb (87-
100 Nm). Torque again after the first 10 hours and every 200
hours thereafter.
3. Set park brake.

the rear tires are 18 psi (1.3 bar).
5. Remove the tape holding woodruff key (Ref B) to the shaft. Put
steering wheel (Ref A) on the shaft of the steering mechanism
(Ref C). Tighten nut to 30-40 ft/lb (41 - 54 Nm). Do not over
tighten.
6. Install the seat with the stud going through the engine cover
and the flat washers, lock washers and nuts. Use the front set
of holes for shorter drivers and use the back set of holes for
