The values in the table refer to a walking speed of 1 m/s and an area of 1 hectare in each case.
The table is intended to provide a rough guide.

Note
Using the mistblower
In mistblowing, the solution flows from the elevated container down through the open stop cock and
metering nozzle to the spray tube. The jet of solution is injected into the airstream, atomized and discharg
ed. The airstream is permeated more or less uniformly with the very fine droplets.
Too low a dosage may fail to achieve the desired effect.
The normal walking speed for low- growing crops is 1m/s. lt may be necessary to walk slower when mistbl-
owing higher crops.
To achieve greater working widths or treat open and high-growing crops, the spray tube must be moved
quickly back and forth or up and down.
To limit these variations, always run the machine at full throttle with the stop cock fully open. Accelerate the
engine up to full throttle first and then open the stop cock. Note that the discharge rate is controlled by the
metering unit, not the stop cock.
The factors which influence the liquid discharge rate per unit area are either fixed by the setting (discharge
rate per unit time) or determined by the operator. Walking speed and working width can vary. These variati
ons can result on considerable differences in the quantity of active ingredient applied per unit area. In addi
tion, the wetting effect can be altered by the direction and strength of the wind.
Great care must be taken with active ingredients which can harm plants and the environment if applied in
too high a dosage.
