CALIBRATING THE SPRAYER
The sprayer can be calibrated through the formula below or through the calibrator bottle as shown
in the next page.
Nozzle flow rate .............................. 1.0 l/min at 150 psi (JA-2 nozzle)
Nozzle spacing ............................... 0.5 m
Working speed ............................... 4.0 km/h
