Review the controlconsole manual for specific operation instructions.Note: The ratio rate option must be disabled to control injected chemical application in normal mode.The default setting for the ratio rate feature is disabled.The following procedure outlines the general operation of Sidekick Pro and controlling an injected chemical.Note: Perform pump priming and calibration checks before beginning to apply an injected chemical. Besure to verify console calibration settings for each injection pump before operating the SidekickPro pump(s).1.

Turn product control on for each of the injected chemical(s) on the control console.4. Select manual or automatic mode of product control for each Sidekick Pro pump. In automatic controlmode, the control node will automatically adjust rate control based on speed and active boom sections. Inmanual mode, the machine operator manually controls the rate of chemical injection.5. Accelerate to at least 0.7 MPH [1.1 km/h] and toggle the master boom switch to the on position. TheSidekick Pro injection pump will begin injecting product into the main product line at the injection point.Note: A self test speed may also be entered on the control console to simulate a vehicle speed fortesting purposes.If the pump does not turn on or an error is displayed, verify calibration values in the controlconsole, make sure the system has a rate cal, speed, and an active boom section, and verify thatthe pump is primed. See Chapter 7, Troubleshooting, if the pump still does not respond.6. To shut the injection pump off:a. Toggle the master boom switch to the off position.b. Toggle the selected injection product(s) off.c. Slow the vehicle speed to below 0.7 MPH [1.1 km/h].
