TO STOP SPRAYING – at the end of each spray pass/row
At the end of each spray pass or row turn the sprayer over (so that the spray bottle is
underneath the spray head) to stop the liquid flow, then switch off the sprayer. Move
upwind to the start of the next spray pass and start spraying again. The operator
should always keep the spray head downwind from their body.

TO STOP SPRAYING – at the end of the spray operation
When spraying is finished either spray out any remaining spray mix from the bottle
or drain back into the backpack by holding the spray head up (with the spray bottle
underneath the spray head) and opening the flow valve. The flow valve must be
closed once all the spray mix has been drained back into the backpack to avoid
leakage. N.B. any water-based spray mixture remaining should be used within a few
days but ULV formulations can be stored for some time. Make sure that all the spray
liquid is spun out from the spray head by keeping the atomiser disc running for a few
seconds after the spray bottle is empty. Then switch the sprayer off.
For ease of transport the backpack can be disconnected (use the flow valve to isolate
any liquid left in a backpack) and the sprayer collapsed (by removing the batteries).
The atomiser protective cover should be replaced for transport (this can only be done
if the sprayer is collapsed).
AFTER SPRAYING
1. Dispose of any surplus spray mix according to the product label. Store products
safely, locked up and out of the reach of children.
