Safety Instructions
Caution:
contents under pressure.
Read this before operating.
• Release pressure from the bottle before
refilling or replacing parts. This is done by
slowly pulling up the safety valve and holding
until all air has been released. Then unscrew
the container cap.
Note:
some remaining air
may be expelled.
• Inspect the condition of all fittings before
each use. Do not attempt to use your
sprayer with worn or damaged parts.
These parts should be replaced. Refer to
spare parts list.
• Safety valve operation: over pumping will
cause the safety valve to open and release
excess pressure. It will close when safe
operating pressure is reached.
• Safety valve test: fill the bottle to the
maximum filling level with clean water.
Pressurise by pumping a few times. Once it
has reached full pressure the valve should
lift, allowing the red indicator to become
visible and air to escape. If this does not
happen, replace the safety valve.
• Your sprayer is made from many different
types of plastic materials, and although
the liquid you may wish to use is packed in
a plastic container, it is not guaranteed
that it will not damage your sprayer. Your
sprayer is designed for use with a broad
range of domestic water based herbicides,
fungicides, insecticides and fertilisers.
Do not use other types of chemicals as they
may be detrimental to the safe operation
of your sprayer.
• Follow chemical suppliers on-pack instructions.
