A Step-by-Step Guide to Cleaning, Lubrication, and Seasonal Care
High-Pressure Triplex (HTP) sprayers are essential tools for modern-day farming, horticulture, and even industrial applications. Whether you’re spraying pesticides, cleaning equipment, or irrigating crops, a well-maintained HTP sprayer ensures efficiency, longevity, and safety.
At Natraj Super, we provide a wide range of high-quality agricultural and industrial equipment, including HTP Sprayers, that are trusted by farmers and professionals across India. To help you get the most out of your investment, here’s a comprehensive guide on how to maintain your HTP sprayer for peak performance throughout the year.
🔧 Step 1: Daily Cleaning After Use
Why It Matters: Prevents residue buildup and nozzle clogging.
How to Do It:
- After every use, rinse the tank with clean water.
- Spray clean water through the nozzle for a few minutes to flush out any chemical residues.
- Remove and clean the nozzle tips, strainers, and filters.
- Avoid using strong detergents unless recommended by the manufacturer.
💡 Pro Tip: Use warm water to remove oily pesticides and fertilizers effectively.
🛢️ Step 2: Lubricate Key Moving Parts
Why It Matters: Reduces wear-and-tear, friction, and overheating.
How to Do It:
- Check the piston chamber regularly and add oil as needed.
- Use manufacturer-recommended HTP pump oil (consult Natraj Super’s product manual).
- Ensure all valves and O-rings are lightly lubricated with silicone grease to avoid cracking or leakage.
🧰 Bonus: Natraj Super offers grease-less 4-piston sprayers that reduce the need for frequent greasing—perfect for long-term maintenance ease.
🧼 Step 3: Perform Weekly & Monthly Checks
Weekly Checks:
- Inspect hoses and seals for leaks or cracks.
- Check pressure levels and ensure the gauge is functioning properly.
Monthly Checks:
- Tighten all bolts and screws.
- Inspect belts and pulleys (if applicable).
- Clean or replace air filters.
❄️ Step 4: Seasonal Storage & Winter Care
Why It Matters: Prevents freezing, corrosion, and mechanical damage.
Before Storage:
- Drain the tank and all lines thoroughly.
- Run antifreeze or a rust inhibitor through the pump system if storing in cold conditions.
- Store the sprayer in a dry, dust-free shed or covered area.
During Off-Season:
- Cover the machine with a breathable cloth.
- Keep it elevated on a pallet to avoid moisture from the floor.
- Label it “Ready for Spring” with a note on what needs replacing or checking next season.
