Frequently Asked Questions - FX-DS5L Fuxtec

What is the maximum filling capacity of the FX-DS5L?

The maximum filling capacity is 5 liters, for a total tank capacity of 8 liters (including the air space required for pressurization).

How to pressurize the sprayer?

Operate the pump lever several times while the lance is closed. Once pressure is felt, open the spray lance. If pressure build-up is insufficient, check that the connections are tightened and the seals are in good condition.

What to do if the sprayer does not spray even though it is under pressure?

Check that the lance filter and nozzle are clean. Clean them if necessary. If the problem persists, check the condition of the seals and replace them if needed.

How to clean the sprayer after use?

After use, empty the tank and rinse it with clean water. Run the pump with clean water to wash all components. Allow to air dry. Once a year, clean the pump thoroughly and grease moving parts.

What types of products can I use with the FX-DS5L?

The sprayer is designed for liquid fertilizers, herbicides, and BBA-approved plant protection products. Do not use solvents, aggressive or corrosive chemicals, or petroleum-based products.

What safety precautions should I take?

Wear protective clothing, do not eat/smoke during application. Do not spray on people or animals. Never blow into the nozzles. Keep the device and products out of reach of children.

Can I use the sprayer in windy weather?

No, it is forbidden to use the device on days of strong wind to avoid product drift.

How to store the sprayer in winter?

Protect the device from frost and heat sources. Empty the tank and lance completely, clean and dry thoroughly before storing in a dry place out of reach of children.

What periodic maintenance is recommended?

Clean the filter and nozzle regularly. Once a year, disassemble and clean the pump, then grease moving parts. Check the condition of the seals and replace them if necessary.
