Safety Instructions Before attempting to operate or install the sprayer carefully read and take note of the following safety warnings. Failure to comply with these warnings may result in serious injury or death. Warning! This sprayer is designed and manufactured solely for the purpose of applying agricultural chemicals to plants.
Specifications GENERAL The Silvan 70 litre Rakpak Plus is a compact portable sprayer. Whether you are a commercial grower, or hobby farmer, you will find many uses for this unit. The tank, pump and spray lance fittings are corrosion resistant and suitable for applying weedicides, herbicides, insecticides, fungicides, organic and green formulations.
Installation FITTING TO A VEHICLE Position the sprayer on the vehicle to minimise chemical contamination to the operator. Face the pump away from the operator to minimize the risk of contamination due to hose failure. The sprayer should be securely attached to any ATV or other type of vehicle that it is installed on. The hold-down strap recesses moulded into the top of the tank can be used to positively locate tie down straps, which should be firmly secured to approved attachment points on the ATV or other vehicle.
Operation SETUP AND TESTING It is always recommended that you first test all spray equipment thoroughly with clean water. Silvan Rakpack’s are supplied with a blue adjustable nozzle containing a large orifice, which when twisting the tip can allow for a greater flow of liquid. It is recommended that the adjustable nozzle is used first with the spray gun and can be changed later if you require.
Operation (cont.) After spraying is completed, drain unused chemicals from the tank. Rinse the tank with clean water then operate the sprayer with clean water in the tank to clean out the pump, hose and spray lance. Do not leave chemicals in the tank as they may settle and form solids that may block the filter. If heavy frosts are experienced, run the sprayer until the pump and spray lines are dry.
