1. Before each use, check the backpack sprayer for damage, leakage,

etc. First, spray once with clean water.

2. This backpack sprayer is not suitable for spraying flammable

materials. These materials can cause explosions, fire or damage to the backpack sprayer!

3. Do not swing the pump handle up and down forcefully for too long

before you squeeze the operating handle to start spraying. This creates overpressure, which can damage the device.

4. Do not leave the backpack sprayer filled (whether or not

pressurised) without supervision.

5. Release the pressure if you take a break during the work activities.

Leaving the device too long without operating it can cause damage!

6. When spraying pesticides, the user must wear protective clothing, a

mask and gloves to prevent pesticides from coming into contact with the skin and causing injury.20

sprayer and flush it with clean water to prevent aggressive contents from impairing the backpack sprayer or blocking the nozzle. This way, you also prevent residual materials from getting mixed with new and/or other contents, which may cause a chemical reaction that impacts the operation or damages the crops. Dry the backpack sprayer before storing it.

inside a building. Description and operating principle Description

2. Liquid container cover

11. Operating rings and rubbers

The device has carrying strap (backpack system). The air chamber is built into the device and is therefore safe and leakage-proof. Using the operating handle, you can regulate the spraying according to your requirements. The materials used in the device are acid, alkaline and corrosion resistant. The device is not suitable for use with (cleaning) vinegar. The device closes hermetically and is very durable.22 You can attach various nozzles to the lance for different tasks to obtain a very fine spray or a sprinkler effect, for example (see: Operating procedure). The spray cap can be attached on the flat jet nozzle to prevent atomizing pesticides, etc. Operating principle By moving the pump handle up and down, the liquid is pumped from the container to the pump housing where pressure is created. By subsequently squeezing the operating handle, the liquid is released via the nozzle. Operating instruction Remove all the packaging material and keep it out of reach of children. Check that all the parts are present. Screw the lance onto the operating handle. Select a nozzle and screw it on top of the lance. Unscrew the cover of the container and slowly pour the liquid, including the dissolved pesticide, into the container through the filter. Subsequently, close the cover tightly and put the device on to your back. Create pressure by swinging the pump handle. You can now start spraying by squeezing the operating handle of the jet lance. You can opt for continuous spraying or spray a little bit directly on a certain spot for a short time. By sliding the red slide on the handle backwards, you can lock the handle for uninterrupted spraying. Select a nozzle that is suitable for the job at hand. The device is supplied including four different nozzles:

A spray cap is also included. Flat jet nozzle: Sprays uniformly and is suitable for spraying low-growing, short and creeping crops and for spraying pesticides. Hold the jet lance steady and spray in the same direction as the wind is blowing. You can use the spray cap with this nozzle.23 Single atomization nozzle and double atomization nozzle: Are suitable for spraying pesticides (against diseases) and insect repellents. Spray in the same direction as the wind is blowing!

4-holes nozzle (adjustable): Is suitable for spraying high-growing climbing crops, fruit trees, etc. Monitor that the liquid continues to come out of the nozzle uniformly! By rotating the nozzle, you can adjust the jet from a straight jet to a spray mode.

Spray cap: It is intended only for use on the flat jet nozzle and it prevents spray-drifting of the liquid. The spray cap simply slides over the nozzle. Pay attention that the slot of the flat jet nozzle is aligned with the wide outlet of the spray cap!
