To open on tap:
Move lever upwards into position "I".
To shut off tap:
Move lever into horizontal position "O". When
shutting tap, move lever slowly against spring
tension to position "0". Do not let the lever flick
back.
Note:
For spot spraying (treatment of single plants or
smaller area), push the lever momentarily into
position "2" (spot spraying).
The liquid output volume is adjusted by turning the
dosage sleeve to different positions.
When spraying predominantly upwards (tall trees)
we recommend using the liquid pump offered as
an accessory (part no.: 49117)

Note: The liquid pump attachment comprises a
special metering body, which should be installed
when using a liquid pump.
Please note: When using a liquid pump,
ensure that the tank contains sufficient
liquid. The liquid pump can sustain severe
damage, if it is permitted to run dry.
11.2 Spraying
When applying spraying agent, ensure by using
appropriate measures and procedures that the
unintended release of agent to other areas is
minimized and the drift to the surrounding areas
is prevented.
Always proceed with the greatest care when
spraying.
Never use the device under windy conditions or
if it is raining, as this would risk widespread
drifting of the spraying agent.
Check the wind direction before starting work
and select the spraying direction downwind of
the user.
It is best to perform spraying work in the morning
or evening, as it tends to be less windy then.
Ensure that you only wet what is in fact intended
to be covered with spraying agents.
Never spray the agent towards persons,
animals, open windows or doors, cars or
anything else that could be damaged by the
spraying agent.
Spraying:
Approach the target object with the engine at idling
speed. Accelerate to full engine speed, then open
formula on-off tap.
Wide-range nozzle (7):

Fig. 9
When spraying plants and trees we recommend
fixing the wide-range nozzle (7) onto the red
standard nozzle (4). This ensures that a large area
can be sprayed at one time. Push the wide-range
nozzle onto the standard nozzle, until the bead
engages.
