Assembly; Placing In Service; Cleaning, Care And Storage - Solo 461 Instructions D'emploi

4. Assembly

You will find the following parts in the packaging
Holding clamp
Handle with shut-off valve and hose
threaded collar
Spray tube
Alternative nozzle set with associated
gasket (models 462 and 463 only)
For model 462, the complete nozzle ( Fig.6
Pos.1) with O-Ring (10x2 mm) must be
screwed on the spray tube.
Push the hose completely onto the provided
connector of the red-flanged housing, by
using strong pressure and turning the hose.
You secure the hose (Fig.6 Pos.2) by screwing
on the threaded collar (Fig.6 Pos.3).
Insure that you have completely pushed the
hose on before tightening the threaded collar.
Firmly screw the spray tube with O-Ring (16x3
mm) onto the shut-off valve. In the process,
fasten the threaded collar (Fig.6 Pos.4) on
straight and firmly tighten it by hand – do not
use force and do not use any tools to firmly
fasten the collar!
When your work is completed, the spray tube
should be fitted into the holding clamp.
Please put the nozzle completely up (Fig 1).
Fig. 3 Thread both ends of the carrying strap
through the slits provided on the red flanged
housing.

5. Placing in service

The pressure sprayer must be de-pressurized
before disassembling any component, and
before opening the pump, by pulling on the
pressure valve (Fig.4)! Before pulling on the
pressure valve the sprayer must always be in
an upright position.
Fig. 7 The pump must be removed to fill the
spray liquid. To do this, push the pump handle
down and turn it to the left (counter-
clockwise) until the handle clicks into position.
Unscrew pump by turning it counter-
clockwise. Do not use any tools!
Fill the spray liquid to the fill mark maximum.
Model 461: 5,0 liters
Model 462: 7,5 liters
Model 463: 11 liters
In this regard, follow the safety directives and
insure the correct dosing according to the
instructions provided by the manufacturer of
the spray substance!
Thoroughly mix the liquid, insert pump and
refasten firmly by turning clockwise. Firmly
tighten by turning pump handle clockwise
until it clicks into position.
To pump, loosen the pump handle by turning
out of the stop position. Pump the unit until
the operating pressure is reached in the
container. Excessive pressure escapes
automatically through the safety valve. (Fig. 4)
Take the spray tube in your hand and start the
spray process by pressing the shut-off valve.
Releasing the shut-off valve stops the spray
process.
The shut-off valve can be arrested with the
red clip for continuous spraying. To loosen
the arresting mechanism, press the shut-off
valve completely in and loosen the red clamp.
The shut-off valve can be blocked in the rest
position with the red clamp, to prevent
unintended spraying.
Alternativ spray nozzles see the accessory
overview on the original packaging.
The spray tube can be rotated in the shut-off
valve – after loosening the threaded collar –
this is useful for spraying under leaves.
The pressure sprayer can also be carried by the
pump handle, if the pump handle is pressed
down completely, and it is turned to the right
and clicked into position.

6. Cleaning, care and storage

After each use, release pressure, always
keeping the sprayer in vertical position. Empty
the container, carefully clean, and rinse well
with clean water. Do not empty residual
quantities of spray liquid into watercourses;
rather dispose of them via communal disposal
systems. For cleaning nozzle, spray tube, and
shut-off valve, operate the sprayer using clean
water (add dishwashing detergent if
required). Never use aggressive, acid-
containing, solvent-containing cleaning
substances (gasoline for example).
Always empty the sprayer completely and
store it in a location that is dry, frost-free, and
protected from direct sunlight.
