*Approximate data based on a spray swath for unique nozzles at
50 cm height of the target.
NOTE: This sprayer is packaged with the Blue Adjustable Cone
nozzle fitted in the lance. Other nozzles mentioned in this manu-
al are optional, so they do not accompany this sprayer.
8.2. Calibration of battery powered knap-
sack sprayer
PROCEDURE
1. USING CALIBRATOR BOTTLE (OPTIONAL)
2. Hold the lance at the working height and spray to mea-
sure the application band width.
3. Based on the band width, calculate the total walking dis-
tance required to spray the desired area. Use the chart as
shown next.

Record the time it takes to
walk 25 m²
1. Hold the lance at the normal working height and spray
into the bottle while walking the distance required to
spray an area corresponding to 25 m².
2. Place the bottle on a level surface and observe the liquid
level visible through the side of the bottle. Match the
liquid level to the corresponding scale on the calibrator
bottle.
3. Empty the bottle and repeat this operation to determine
the average of two or more readings.
NOTE: For the volume in liters per bushel (L / alk), simply multiply
the value obtained in liters per hectare (L / ha) by 2.42.

8.3. Filling the spray tank with pesticides.

1. Read carefully the chemicals manufacturer's labels;
2. Put 5 liters of water in a bucket and add the chemical
product;
3. Stir until it becomes an homogeneous mixture;
