TO START SPRAYING

Carrying the ELECTRAFAN 12 in the resting position, move to the planned starting
point of the spray operation. Then connect the sprayer to the battery and, with the
sprayer still in the resting position, switch on the sprayer to check the smooth running
of both the atomiser disc and fan (never touch the atomiser disc when spinning).
Then turn over the sprayer into the spraying position, pointing it at the target and start
walking immediately.
Always hold the ELECTRAFAN 12 slightly to the rear so that the operator walks
away from the spray. Always move the machine smoothly to ensure a steady air-
stream to carry the spray droplets to the target. When the bottle is empty mark the
position where spraying stopped and restart spraying from this point. Do not walk
through any part of the sprayed area.
Stop spraying if you hear the motor beginning to slow down. This usually means that
the battery is running down (see 'THE BATTERY'). When the motor slows the
droplets produced become larger which may reduce product efficacy and in crop
situations may cause leaf spotting on sensitive plants.

TO STOP SPRAYING - AT THE END OF EACH SPRAY PASS

At the end of each spray pass turn the sprayer over into the resting position (with the
bottle underneath the atomiser disc) to stop the liquid flow, then switch off the
sprayer. Move to the start of the next spray pass and start spraying again.
TO STOP SPRAYING - AT THE END OF THE SPRAY OPERATION
When spraying is finished spray out any remaining spray mix if using water-based
mixtures N.B. ULV formulations can be stored for future use. Make sure that all the
spray liquid is ejected from the atomiser disc when the bottle is empty by keeping the
motor running for a few seconds. Then switch the sprayer off.
