DESCRIPTION
The HERBIFLEX-4 is a hand-held, shrouded, spinning disc, Controlled Droplet Ap-

plication (CDA) sprayer. It is powered by four torch (D-cell/R20) batteries, with one
set of good quality batteries giving over 30 hours spraying time. It is designed to ap­ply herbicides in adjustable narrow bands of between 10 and 75 cm at low volumes
(10 to 30 litres/hectare). A go verned electric motor spins the ato miser disc at a con­stant 2,800 rpm to produce uniform spray droplets of around 200 micron; large
enough to minimise any risk of spray drift. Liquid is fed by gravity through colour
coded feed nozzles.

The HERBIFLEX-4 can be used to apply bands of herbicides around buildings, fence
lines, borders and pathwa ys as well as for treatment between crop rows. The weight
of the machine ready to spray, with the Micropak 5 litre b ackpack, is 7 k g.

Specially designed Micron Micropak backpacks and a shoulder strap are available for
use with the HERBIFLEX-4. Other optional extras include an atomiser cone housing
(B 120) which allows a wider band to be sprayed and a spray shield (for use with the
standard A90 atomiser cone housing only).

The sprayer can also be supplied with a valve/handle conversion, as the HERBIFLEX

-4 Extra, which allows Micron spray bottles to be fitted directly to the sprayer.

SAFETY

Using agrochemicals is a hazardous process. Operators should comply with all
relevant legislation and/or regulations governing t he use of agrochemicals and should
use appropriate personal protective equipment (see 'OPERATOR PROTECTION').

Never

use the HERBIFLEX-4 in potentially explosive atmospheres or spray

flammable liquid through it.

The HERBIFLEX-4 can be used with most conventional herbicides, as well as
specific CDA formulations (only available in some countries) to provide a closed
transfer system to improve operator safety.

Never eat, drink, or smoke when working with agrochemicals. After using
agrochemicals or handling equipment wash your hands thoroughly. Keep people
(especially children) and animals out of areas being sprayed.

Always

store agrochemicals safely to protect people and animals, and to safeguard
the environment (take special care to avoid water pollution). See spraying sections
for guidelines on safe use of the HERBIFLEX -4 in operation.

Always read the product label carefully to
discover:-

♦ approved applications
♦ maximum dose rates
♦ maximum number of treatments
♦ operator protection required
♦ necessary environmental protection

measures

N.B. ‘Dose rate’ refers to the amount of chemical product applied per hectare.

5

OPERATOR PROTECTION
Always

wear the protective cl othing items listed on the product label for mixing and

filling. The minimum

protective clothing required for spraying with the HERBI-

FLEX-4 is:

♦ rubber gloves and boots
♦ boots/shoes and long trousers
♦ eye protection
♦ long sleeved shirt

PREPARING FOR SPRAYING

The sprayer is delivered in a collapsed form. To assemble ready for spraying:

Note:

a) Acoustic information

: the sound pressure level at the ope rator's ear does not

exceed 70 dB(A).

b) Vibration

: the weighted RMS acceleration value at the hands when using this

machine does not exceed 2.5 m/sec

2

.

1) Extend the sprayer and securely connect the feed tube to the flow valve.
Instructions on assembling Micron Micropak backpacks are contained in the
tank. The shoulder strap (if supplied) should be connected to the battery case
end cap.

BEFORE SPRA YING FOR THE FIRST TIME

Before spraying for the first time use water and liquid detergent only to familiarise your­self with the sprayer and check the spray pattern produced.

Put around half a litre of water in backpack or bo ttle and add a small a mount (one to two
ml) of liquid detergent such as household washing up liquid. The detergent is important
to reduce the surface tension in the liquid feed tube and helps ensure an even flow. With
the sprayer in the spraying position, check for leaks.

Switch on the sprayer and then

open the
flow control valve. Again check for
leaks.

When spraying, the spray head should be held 5-7 cm

above the ground or top of weed canopy with the lance at an angle of 35-40

o

to the
ground. Spray on one spot for around 10 seconds, preferably on a clean dry surface e.g.
concrete where you will be able to see the spray pattern produced.

2) Remove the switch end
piece as shown on the label.

3) Insert four batteries (D-cell/R20)
negative, i.e. flat, end first.

7

If the spray head is horizontal the spray
should project forward about 0.6 m and
produce a pattern or band around 0.5 m
wide using the standard atomiser cone
housing (A 90).

If the head is angled downwards the
band width will be reduced. The an­gle of the spray head should not ex­ceed 45° otherwise dripping will re­sult.

Changing the angle of the spray head
will adjust the band width produced.
To change the angle of the spray head
slacken the vertical adjustment nut (1),
alter the angle of the head (2), re­tighten the nut and check the new
band width produced.

The head of the HERBIFLEX-4 can
also be turned sideways in order to
spray narrow lines or adjust the place­ment of the spray pattern produced.
To do this slacken the horizontal ad­justment nut (3), rotate the head (4)
and re-tighten to lock the position.

8

MIXING, FILLING AND CALIBRATION

Mixing and filling is generally t he most hazardous process in the spraying operation.

Always

follow the label instructions. Always use a filter (fitted in the Micron Mi-

cropak backpacks) and use a funnel if filling a container with a small neck. Only

mix enough spray for the area to be treated thereby avoiding the need for disposal of
unused spr ay mix.

Always wear gloves when handling
agrochemicals and equipment.

Always use the correct equipment
when mixing a nd mea sur i n g.

Always wash off any skin
contamination

Always clean all equipment after
use.

With the HERBIFLEX-4 herbicid es are us ually app lied in ar ound 20 litres total sp ray
volume per hectare. The exception is glyphosate which can be applied at volumes a s
low as 10 litres per hectare. These are lower volumes than recommended for high
volume application with knapsack sprayers. Use the minimum dose rate recom­mended on the label for the intended treatment and add water to make up to the vol­ume required for application with the HERB IFLEX-4.

9

For example, if the label recommends applying a minimum of 2 litres of product
made up to 200 litres of water per hectare with a knapsack sprayer, use 2 litres of
product made up to 20 litres for ap plication with the HERBI FLEX-4, i.e. a spray mix
concentration of 10%.

Do not use herbicide concentrations greater than the maximum recommended on the
label (unless specific training or recommendations have been given) if the label:

a) specifically prohibits use of 'Reduced Volumes' i.e. increased concentrations;
b) has a statutory

requirement for use of personal protective equipment when
using the diluted product at high volumes (N.B. this will appear in the
statutory box on the label); or

c) carries one of the following hazard ratings: 'very toxic', 'toxic' or 'corrosive' or

carries the warning 'risk of serious damage to the eyes' e.g. paraquat
(Gramoxone) which is classified as toxic should not therefore be used through
the HERBIFLEX-4 at concentrations greater than recommended on the label.

Micron do not generally recommend using spray mixes more than ten times the
maximum concentration recommended for high volume application with knapsack
sprayers. The safest product and lowest dose rate appropriate for the treatment
should be used at all times.

To prepare the spray mix first read the product label to determine the quantity of
product to be applied per hectare e.g. 2 litres of glyphosate per hectare. Then
determine the total spray volume to be applied per hectare with the Herbi-4 i.e. 10 or
20 litres per hectare. Calculat e the ratio o f product in water e.g. 2 litres glyphosate +
8 litres water = 10 litre mix = 1: 4. Use this ratio to pr epare the correct dose for the
spray tank or bottle e.g. with a 5 litre backpack mix 1 litre glyphosate with 4 litre of
water.

Half fill the tank with clean water and
check for leaks

Measure out the exact amount of prod­uct and add to the tank

10

Never use leaking equipment. T ake care to avoid spillage when filling or lifting the
tank.

Examples of mixing spray - for 1 hectare

Fill the tank with water Wipe the tank with a dry cloth.

Mix well by gent l y sha ki ng th e tank. Place the tank on the operator's back.

a) glyphosate (360 g/l): 2 litres
add water: +8 litres
Total volume: 10 litres

i.e. 1 part glyphosa te : 4 parts water
e.g. 1 litre of glyphosate + 4 litres of
water in 5 litre tank.

b) 2,4-D (500 g/l): 3 litres
add water: +17 litres
Total volume: 20 litres

i.e. 3 parts 2,4-D : 17 parts water
e.g. 750 ml 2,4-D + 4.25 litres in wa­ter in 5 litre tank

Never use leaking equipment. Take care to avoid spillage of the spray mix.

11

CALIBRATION

The for mula bel ow gives the relatio nship b etween swath (i .e. b and) widt h, flo w rate,
walking speed and total spra y volume:

Flow rate (ml/min) = 6 x total spray volume (l/ha) x walking speed (m/s) x band width (m)

To help calibrate the HERBI FLE X-4 a calculator disc is provided with the spr ayer.
This is used as below:

1. Decide the total spray volume application rate to b e used. A CDA rate may be in­dicated on the label of the product. If not, as a general guide, use 10 l/ha (total spray
volume) for glyphosate and 20 l/ha (total spray volume) for other herbicides.

2. Decide the swath (band) width you
wish to use (e.g. 30 cm) and set the angle
of the head accordingly (see 'BEFORE
SPRAYING FOR THE FIRST TIME').

3. On the calculator disc align the swath
(band) width (in cm) with the total vol­ume application rate (e.g. 20 l/ha) as de­termined in 1. above.

4. Having fixed the swath (band) width
and volume application rate select the
preferred walking speed (2km/hr = Slow,
3km/hr = Medium, 4 km/hr = Fast) N.B.
1 m/s = 3.6 km/hr.

5. Read off the feed rate required to give
the correct volume application rate. (e.g.
30 ml/min with 30 cm swath (band)
width and walking speed of 3 km/hr to
apply at a volume of 20 l/ha).

Unless using the atomiser cone housing B120 for wider swaths (see 'OPTIONAL
EXTRAS') the flow rate used should not exceed 45 ml/min

12

6. Fit the feed nozzle which is likely to give this feed rate using the table below as a
guide:

(* Supplied for use with the atomiser cone housing B120 only - do not use with the
atomiser cone housing A90 as this will result in flooding of the cone.)

7. Measure the flow rate which this feed nozzle gives using the actual spray liquid to
be used.

The actual flow rate should be checked holding
the HERBIFLEX-4 in the spraying position
(see 'TO START SPRAYING'). Remove the
feed nozzle from the atomiser cone housing
and allow the liquid to flow in to a s uitable con­tainer (such as the 50 ml measuring cup pro­vided with the sprayer).

If the sprayer is new it may be noticed that with the white or brown feed nozzle fitted,
air trapped in the liquid feed tube reduces the flow rate. If this occurs, clear the air
by gently tapping the tube and, if necessary, flushing it through with a strong soap
solution to reduce the surface tension in it. Once a steady flow is established measure
the volume dispensed in one minute. If necessary fit a different feed no zzle and re­measure the flow rate.

Read off from the calculator the actual walking speed which is needed to apply the
given volume application rate with the flow rate measured. It is preferable to walk
more slowly to achieve the required spray volume than to use higher flow rates.

TO START SPRAYING

Before spraying for the first time check the operation of the spra yer using water and a
little detergent only. (see 'BEFORE SPRAYING FOR THE FIRST TIME').

Check the wind speed and direction (below 5 kph is safest). Take special care to
avoid drift by keeping the spray head as low as possible. Never

spray into the wind

and avoid walking into t he spray.

N.B. To help aid the balance of the sprayer, while using the 2

1

/2 L Bottle, a Shoulder

strap is provided.

Hold the spray head 5-7 cm above
the ground or weed foliage at an an­gle of 35

o

to 40o to the ground.
Switch on the sprayer and listen to
check that the atomiser disc starts
spinning; then

open the flow valve.
There may be a slight delay before
spray is emitted while liquid flows
down the tube to the feed nozzle.

Start walking immediately the spray
liquid is emitted. N.B. the machine
will not spray if the spray head is
above the level of liquid in the con­tainer. It is best to hold the HERBI ­FLEX-4 slightly to one side so as to
avoid walking over the treated area.

Always

keep the spray head away
from the body to avoid direct con­tamination by the spray.

TO STOP SPRAYING

Close the flow valve and wait for a few moments u ntil the spray liquid in the botto m
of the atomiser cone is spraye d out and then switch off the sprayer. When the atom­iser disc has stopped spinning lift the spray head so that it is above the level of liquid
in the tank and the sprayer is at an angle of 45

o

and then open the flow control valve

to drain any remaining liquid in the feed tube back into the tank. Do not

raise the
spray head until the atomiser disc has stopped spinning. Then close the flow valve.
This isolates the liquid in the backpack and means it can be disconnected from the
sprayer.

14

AFTER SPRAYING

1. Dispose of any surplus spray mix ac­cording to the product approval. Store
products safely, locked up and out of the
reach of children.

2. It is essential to clean the sprayer and
bottle or backp ack thor oughly using water
and detergent after use. Never

immer se
the spray head in water or under a tap,
since this will destroy the electric motor.

A water and detergent mix should be put in the bottle, swilled around, and then
sprayed out onto the treated area or an area of waste ground. The sprayer and bottle
should be wiped down externally using a cloth.

3. Periodically remove the atomiser cone housing and remove and clean the atomiser
disc.

To do this first remove the feed nozzle by
pulling it out of the bottom of the atomiser
cone housing (1). Then remo ve the atomiser
cone housing by rotating it an eighth of a
turn clockwise (as viewed from above) to
unlock the bayonet keyhole fitting (2) and
pull it away from the bottom of the motor
housing (3).

The atomiser disc can be removed from the
atomiser cone housing and cleaned in soapy
water usi ng a soft br ush.

15

TO REFIT THE ATOMISER DISC

When refitting the atomiser disc it is important to ensure tha t it is correctly located in
the atomi s er cone housing and motor housing to avoid damage.

First, lower the atomiser disc into the
atomiser c one housing en suring that th e
disc shaft seats on the ba ll in the bottom
of the atomiser cone assembly.

Then fit the motor housing, taking care
to ensure that the motor drive shaft is
correctly inserted into the slot on the top
of the atomiser disc. Push the screws
into the bayonet keyhole slots in the mo­tor housing and twist to lock the asse m­bly together.

Check that the atomiser disc i s correctly fitted by shaki ng the spray head. If the di sc
can be heard rattling this means that it is fitted corr ectly and will spin freely.

Refit the feed nozzle, ensuring that the sealing o-ring is in place and in good condi­tion.

4. After worki ng with agro chemical s, or handling sp raying equipment, always

thor­oughly wash ha nds and exposed skin. All protective clothing should be washed sepa­rately from other clothing and stored. Contaminated gloves should be washed inside
and out.

STORAGE

Before storing the HERBIFLEX-4 for long periods disassemble the sprayer by re­moving the four screws in the battery case and clean all electrical contacts with a wire
brush or similar. Reasse mble and with the spra yer in the collapsed position i.e. bat­teries removed, store in a dry place away from direct sunlight. Batteries should be
stored in a dry place away from direct sunlight.

OPTIONAL EXTRAS

Spray shield

In some instances where it is essential to
minimise any spray drift a spray shield can
be used. This should only be used with the
standard atomiser cone housing A90.

To fit the spray shield, remove the head adjustment wingnut and screw. Slip the
shield over the spra y head so that it sits ar ound the top o f the motor housing. Fit the
screw, washers and wingnut provided with the spray shield to secure it and set the
angle of the spray head.

Atomiser cone B120 (for wider swaths)
If wider swaths (up to 75 cm) are needed an atomiser cone housing with a wider
opening (B120) should be used. This is supplied with a set of feed nozzles (yellow,
orange and red) which give the higher flow rates needed for treating using wider
swaths. (see 'MIXING, FILLING AND CALIBRATION').

This should be fitted as described in 'AFTER SPRAYING - TO REFIT THE AT­OMISER DISC.'

TROUBLESHOOTING
A) Atomiser disc spins but does not spray or sprays irregularly. Check:

- the feed nozzle. If the feed nozzle is blocked remove and soak in soapy
water.
Never

blow thro ugh the nozzle with your mo uth.

- that the feed nozzle gives a flow rate within the operating range

- the atomiser disc is clean and undamaged. Clean or replace.

- the flow valve for blockage. Clean if necessary.
B) Atomiser disc fails to spin or spins unevenly . Check:

- that the batteries ar e f itted correctly.

- the co nditio n of the batteries. Replace if necessary.

- that electrical ter minals and contact points are clean and that electrical wires
are not broken or corroded.

- the motor for corrosion or obvious sign s of wear. Replace if necessary.

- the atomiser disc and atomiser cone housing are fitted correctly (see 'AFTER
SPRAYING - TO REFIT THE ATOMISER DISC').
N.B. Battery condition can be checked with a torch (or a torch light bulb and
electrical wire).
C) Spray liquid spills from the atomiser cone during spraying:

- angle of the spray head to the ground is too great - reduce the angle.

- flow rate too high - fit feed nozzle with lower flow rate and reduce walking
speed accordingly.

Press lever down (1) for treating small areas.
Press down and forward (2) for continuous
spraying. To stop flow, pull back lever and
release. N.B. for safety, valve can be locked in
off position by pushing lever for ward (3)

To fit the bottle to the Handle/Valve, fill the
bottle to the required level and place it on a
level surface. Fit the Handle/Valve into the
bottle ensuring that the bottle handle is in line
with the flow control valve. Tighten the bottle
securing cap and pass the air bleed tube through
the bottle handle. This is important to ensure
that the air bleed system functions correctly.
