of the coupler.

WARNING! Do not leave the sprayer whilst filling the tank and keep an eye on the level indicator in order NOT to
overfill the tank.
±
WARNING! If suction hose/filter is carried on the sprayer during spraying, it can be contaminated by spray drift which
will be transferred to lake/river when filling!
ATTENTION! Observe local legislation regarding use of filling device. In some areas it is prohibited to fill from open
water reservoirs (lakes, rivers etc.). It is strongly recommended only to fill from closed reservoirs (mobile water tanks
etc.) to avoid contamination.
