4. Spraying rates
Make up the mix according to the instructions
issued by the manufacturer of the preparation in
question. Only make up an amount sufficient to
meet your actual needs.
Recommended spraying rates for plant
protection purposes:
Ground vegetation
Low shrubs
Trellis tress, spindle trees
Large bushes
Old, free-standing trees
For liquid pesticides, fill the vessel 1/4 with water
and add the pesticide pre-mixed with water. Top
up with the required amount of water and mix
thoroughly.
When using mixes of vegetable preparations,
make sure that the liquid is filtered before you fill
it in.
Be sure to observe the safety
instructions issued by the
manufacturer of the preparation in
question!
5. Making up pesticide mixes
Always make up your pesticide mixes outdoors,
never inside the home, stalls or storage rooms
for food and feedstuff.
Powdery pesticides should be thoroughly pre-
mixed in a separate container before you fill
them into the pressure sprayer through the filling
sieve. Keep re-stirring the mix.
6. Filling the sprayer
Always use the supplied sieve funnel when filling
the sprayer and supervise the entire filling
operation.
Avoid direct connections between the water
filling hose and the mix in the vessel.
It is absolutely imperative not to allow any of the
mix to be drawn back into the water mains.
0.3-0.5 l for 10 m2
1.0-1.5 l for 10 m2
0.5-1.0 l per piece
2.0 l per piece
3.0-5.0 l per piece
When filling in the pesticide etc., make sure that
it does not come into contact with the
surroundings, the ecosystem and the water
mains.
Filling the vessel from the public water mains
with a hose is only permitted if a non-return
valve is installed upstream from the water
connection.
Do not allow the vessel to overflow. Guard
against polluting public waters, rain pipes and
sewers.
7. Spraying
Operate the lever quickly to prime the pump and
press on the pistol trigger to open the shut-off
valve and allow spray to come out through the
nozzle.
The spray will be cut off immediately when you
let go of the pistol trigger.
8. Proper maintenance and care
Your back-sprayer requires practically no
maintenance.
If you ever have difficulty closing or opening the
vessel cap, apply a little oil to the inserted rubber
sealing ring.
Proper maintenance also entails:
checking the liquid vessel,
checking all the hose lines and their couplings,
cleaning all the filter inserts and checking them
for damage.
An additional sieve is fitted to the inlet to the
pressure tank and cylinder compartment in order
to protect the piston, cylinder and piston collars
from contaminated spraying mix. This sieve can
be cleaned by vigorous swilling out when you
have finished spraying.
9. Storage
Although the vessel is made of UV-stabilized
material we still recommend that you protect the
sprayer from direct sunshine by storing it in a dry
room that is inaccessible to children and animals.
When sub-zero temperatures threaten it is imperative
to remove all liquid from the vessel, the pressure
tank and the lines.
