BEFORE SPRAYING FOR THE FIRST TIME.

Check by hand that the atomiser disc spins freely. Before spraying for the first time use
water to check the spray pattern produced and familiarise yourself with the sprayer. Put
some clean water in the backpack tank unit and add a small amount of detergent (2 to 3
drops). With the sprayer in the correct position (see TO START SPRAYING), check for
leaks. Turn the switch end piece clockwise to the ON position to start atomiser motor,
now turn on the flow by turning the liquid ON/OFF valve (see Description). Spray on
one spot, preferably on clean dry concrete, for about 30 seconds with the spray head held
just above and at an angle of five degrees to the ground. A wet ring approx 35
centimetres diameter should appear on the ground. Practice using the sprayer by walking
along a few meters. Touch the leading edge of the small fringe fitted to the shroud lightly
on the ground and the shroud will be seen to rotate. It is important to rotate the
shroud at all possible times in order for the inbuilt Weedswiper to take effect.
