4.2 Operation
Check the backpack sprayer for possible damages before each use.
Never leave your backpack sprayer unattended or for long periods when full and pressurised.
Keep the backpack sprayer out of the reach of children.
You are responsible for the safety of others.
Keep your backpack sprayer away from heat sources and hot environments.
The tank cap is equipped with a pressure relief valve. This valve draws in air to equalise the
pressure inside the tank and prevents liquid leaking out if the backpack sprayer falls over.
5 ASSEMBLY

tank.

supplied in this sprayer or push the lever into the fitting.
Connect the rubber tube to the top of the tank and to the lance body.
Connect the lance body to the lance tube and connect the spray nozzle to the end of the
lance tube.
Unscrew the tank filling cap, leaving the tank filter in place, and fill the tank with the correct
spray volume for your application and then fill with the correct amount of water for your
dilution, then screw the tank cap firmly in place. Shake the tank to ensure that the solution
is well mixed.
Adjust the straps on the sprayer to an approximate fitting position then put the sprayer
onto your back and adjust the straps again until the tank sits as comfortably as possible on
your back.
Pump the handle of the pump lever approximately 6-8times to pressurize the tank.

6 MAINTENANCE
After use empty out all and any spray left over and wash out the entire tank at least 3
times with clean water filling a fourth time and pressurising the tank and pumping the
clean water out through the spray line hose and lance and nozzles. This must be done to
prevent sludge forming in the remaining spray residue and blocking the spray line and so
that the sprayer is clean for its next use.
Store in a clean dry place out of the direct sunlight.
