GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS FOR SPRAYING
For a successful spraying, the appropriate water quantity, right nozzle selection and a precise
consumption calculation are of major importance. It is recommended to stick to the following order
when it comes to preparing of the spraying mixture and spraying:
Make sure that the spraying appliance is in flawless condition. Check the oil level of the
pump and clean all filters.
Read the instructions which are attached to the protective agent. Pay special attention to
the prescribed concentration, the dose for a hectare and the recommended water
consumption.
Choose an appropriate tractor speed and – if you do not have a reliable value – measure
it. It is very important to have precise speed values when it comes calculating the
quantity of the mixture.
Choose appropriate nozzle type and size according to the crop and required water
consumption. Use the nozzle tables.
Fill the reservoir with half of the fresh water you will need.
Adjust the working pressure on the regulator and check the liquid flow rate through the
nozzles.
Calculate the required water consumption per hectare according to the measured liquid
flow rate through the nozzles and the working speed.
Fill the reservoir with the mixture and add the required water quantity.
While working, pay attention to a constant working speed, the height of the spraying
equipment, the working pressure and nozzle operation.
Clean the sprayer after you finish working.
WARNING: The machine IS NOT SUITABLE FOR LIQUID FERTILIZERS! If
you intend to make an exception, we recommend that you consult the technical
service department.
