Initial operation

Please check at least at the beginning of every spray-
ing season whether the output of the sprayer (l/min)
still corresponds with the indicted values! Observe the
advice of the manufacturer of the spraying agent!
●
Remove the tank lid and fill up the unit with the
filler funnel.
●
Warning!
Do not exceed the maximum filling level (see the
Technical Data). Follow any points concerning safety
regulations and permitted substances. Check the fill-
ing level: push a stick into the filler opening and
down to the bottom of the container. Mark the upper
edge of the filler funnel on the stick, take the stick
out of the container and hold it against the litre scale.
Ensure when doing this that the marking on the stick
lines up with the upper edge of the filler funnel. The
liquid level shown on the stick can then be read off
against the litre scale. Follow the details given by the
manufacturer of the spraying substance!

Bases:
Spraying pressure 1.5 bar
Nozzle Hollow cone nozzle, angle of
spray 55°
Spraying height 50 cm
Dosage 0.5% (see pesticide
manufacturer's instructions)
This means:
Quantity required 0.42 l/min
Spraying width 50 cm
Angle of spray 55°
Quantity of spray compound
per m 2 0.06 l = 600 l/ha
(see pesticide manufacturer's
instructions)
To mix 1 l spray
compound 1l water + 5 ml compound
(5 ml = 0.5% of 1 litre)
