2. Part description
Filling cap
The membrane ventilates the air inside the spray tank, thereby preventing the contraction of the tank and
ensuring permanent suction of the spray mixture.
The O-ring prevents spillage of the spray mixture.
Filling filter
Always filter the spray agent through the filling filter into the tank. This protects the pump from foreign object
damage.
Spray tube support
The spray tube can be placed in the nozzle mount underneath, and clamped above in the gap between the
retaining ring to prevent the nozzle from contamination.
Spray tank
Robust, ergonomical plastic container with a 15 litre (4 US gallons) capacity.
Adjustable carrying belt
To shorten the shoulder straps, pull on the protruding straps of the belt, and to lengthen, move the buckles
up.

Allows you to easily put on and take off the appliance. On one side fasten the belt, put the appliance on, and
comfortably click together with the second buckle.

Pump lever
Integrating a pump and an air vessel into the pump lever results in an easy and comfortable pump drive, with
no need for costly power transmission.
The hose outlet at the front of the lever prevents the hose from getting caught up in branches unintentionally.
The spray tube in use can be easily locked into the additional spray tube support on top of the pump lever
leaving both hands free again.
Pump-lever joint
With a few simple steps, the pump can conveniently shift between the working and parking position using the
special latching function. The pump can be operated in both positions making it easy to clean. The appliance
can be stored compactly in the parking position.
Furthermore, the lever can be reassembled for right-handed operation with little effort, making it possible for
left and right-handed users to work comfortably (delivery package comes pre-assembled for left-handed
operation).
Reassembly instructions for right-handed operation, see pages 18+19.
