Important!
Before taking the sprayer into service for the first time, make sure to read the operating manual
thoroughly.
The user is liable for damages resulting from failure to observe these instructions.
Failure to observe the safety and warning alerts can result in injury to or death of persons!
Safety Instructions
• Each time the sprayer is used, first make sure that the equipment is assembled correctly, is not damaged and is in working
order. In particular, take care that the hose connections are free from leaks and the pressure relief valve (1) operates
effectively and easily.
• The device is equipped with a pressure relief valve (1) which releases pressure in excess of the permitted maximum. The
pressure relief valve is set to 3 bar. Any modification to the pressure relief valve is expressly prohibited.
• Make sure that the liquid you wish to spray is suitable for this equipment. The safety and handling instructions provided by
the chemical manufacturer must be noted and observed. The use of chemicals is entirely at the user's own risk. Should you
have any doubts in this respect please contact the customer service.
• With the sprayer diluted cleaning and disinfection agents containing acid, lye, alcohol or ammonium can be issued. Acid and
lye that has not been enough diluted can destroy the sprayer.
• The sprayer must not be filled with liquids at a temperature greater than 30 deg.C. Do not leave the appliance standing in
the sun under pressure. The effects of frost can damage the equipment.
• The operator must ensure that others, especially children and domestic animals, do not come into contact with escaping
material due to operation of the safety valve when setting up, and that the jet is not directed at them when spraying.
• When spraying avoid contact with the liquid being sprayed. Wear protective clothing, mask, and goggles and protect your
hands. Do not spray against the wind, nor when the wind is strong. Do not discharge any more liquid than is needed for the
area to be treated.
• Do not attempt to clear a blocked nozzle or valve by blowing through using the mouth (danger of poisoning).
• Before screwing out the pump (3) always first discharge the pressure with the pressure relief valve (1), at the same time
holding the sprayer diagonally away from the body.
• The appliance must be cleaned after use. When cleaning take care that water-courses are not contaminated.
• Do not drain off chemicals into other containers (bottles, cans, etc). Store equipment and chemicals in a safe place, away
from children and domestic animals.
Applications
The equipment can be used to spray the recognized pesticides, weed-killers and liquid fertilizers, as used in the home, in the
garden, on the farm, or in vineyards.
Preparing the equipment for use
Fit the spray pipe according the spare parts diagram. Screw the spray valve (10) on to the hose line (9) and then insert the
spray tube (12) with nozzle (16) in the stop valve and screw up tight. Finally, make sure all joints are tight.
Operation
Filling the tank:
On each occasion first fully release the pressure in the tank by lifting the pressure relief valve (1). Unscrew the pump (3) and
fill the tank; the maximum permissible volume of liquid must not be exceeded (see level-mark on the tank), so that sufficient
space remains for the air-cushion. The maximum permissible operating temperature is 30°C / 86°F.
Pressurizing the tank:
Screw in the pump (3) and tighten the connection firmly. Release the pump handle from the locked position by pressing down
on it slightly and turning it to the left. Pump up until the red mark appears on the pressure-relief valve (1). Operating pressure
has then been reached. Fasten the pump handle in the locked position again.
Carrying the sprayer:
The appliance can be carried either by the pump-handle, when this is locked, or by means of the carrying-strap over the
shoulder.
