TO START SPRAYING
Before spraying for the first time check the operation of the sprayer using water and a
little detergent only. (see 'BEFORE SPRAYING FOR THE FIRST TIME').
Check the wind speed and direction (below 5 kph is safest). Take special care to
avoid drift by keeping the spray head as low as possible. Never spray into the wind
and avoid walking into the spray.
N.B. To help aid the balance of the sprayer, while using the 2
strap is provided.
TO STOP SPRAYING
Close the flow valve and wait for a few moments until the spray liquid in the bottom
of the atomiser cone is sprayed out and then switch off the sprayer. When the atom-
iser disc has stopped spinning lift the spray head so that it is above the level of liquid
in the tank and the sprayer is at an angle of 45
to drain any remaining liquid in the feed tube back into the tank. Do not raise the
spray head until the atomiser disc has stopped spinning. Then close the flow valve.
This isolates the liquid in the backpack and means it can be disconnected from the
sprayer.
Hold the spray head 5-7 cm above
the ground or weed foliage at an an-

spinning; then open the flow valve.

will not spray if the spray head is
above the level of liquid in the con-

avoid walking over the treated area.
Always keep the spray head away
from the body to avoid direct con-
tamination by the spray.
