ENGLISH 9

Releasing the shut-off valve stops the spray

process.

The red clip can be used to secure the shut-off

valve in its rest position to prevent accidental

spraying. For this, pull the lever slightly away (a)

from the handle and lock the clip (b).

The spray tube (6) can be rotated in the shut-off

valve (5) – after loosening the threaded collar

(Fig. 2, pos. 9) – this is useful for spraying under

leaves.

If the spraying agent is not applied properly, spray

nozzle or filter element could be blocked or

damaged. If necessary, clean or replace the nozzle

and the filter element.

Cleaning: See section 5.6

Replacing the spray nozzle and the filter element:

See section 5.3

4.2 Transport of the pressure sprayer

The pressure sprayer can also be carried by the

pump handle (3), if the pump handle is pressed

down completely, and it is turned to the right and

clicked into position.

4.3 Residual spraying agents /

finishing spraying

Switch off the pump immediately when any air is

sucked in and sprayed out through the spray

nozzle. This is indicated by a mist being sprayed

from the nozzle. At this point the spraying agent

tank will still contain a residual amount of less than

200 ml [6.8 oz]. If you do not want to add more

spraying agent and wish to stop spraying instead,

dilute this leftover amount with two litres [68 oz] of

clean water and spray it on the treated area.

When you finish working, prepare the device for

storage according to section 5.6, thoroughly wash

your face and hands with soap, take off your work

clothing and ensure that it is washed regularly.

5 Maintenance, cleaning and storage

5.1 Trial run

At least at the start of every spraying season and in

frequent use at least once a month, perform a trial

run with clean water to check the following:

x Tightness of all equipment components at

maximum permissible pressure with open and

closed shut-off valve

x Function of all active components (pressure

relief valve, shut-off valve, pump handle,

pressure gauge (depending on the model))

x Dosing and distribution accuracy of all the

nozzles used by measuring the spraying agent

delivery rate according to section 5.2

Never start working if there are any irregularities or

leaks, if you can see any damage to the equipment

or if the equipment is not working properly in any

way. In this event, immediately depressurise the

device by pulling on the pressure relief valve

(Fig. 3) and have it checked by a specialist

workshop.

Before pulling on the pressure relief valve (4), the

device must always be in an upright position.

Attention: Keep the device away from your face!

5.2 Checking the spray nozzles and the filter

element by measuring the spraying agent

delivery rate

Fill up the tank with clean water to the maximum

marking, start it up and spray for exactly one

minute at an operating pressure of 1 bar.

Then measure the quantity of water required to

refill the tank to its maximum level. The value

measured corresponds to the delivery rate of the

device in l/min for the selected operating pressure.

This value must not deviate by more than 10 %

from the value indicated in section 10.

If the actual value is too low, this may be caused

by deposits in the spray nozzle and/or in the filter

element. Clean the parts and repeat the check.

If the actual value is too high, this may be due to

wear or damage to the spray nozzle.

When checking the nozzles, also check whether

the spray nozzle is producing an even, fan-shaped

spray pattern.

If the delivery rate is still too low after cleaning the

nozzle and the filter element, or if the nozzle and/or

the filter element are worn or damaged, replace the

nozzle and/or the filter element by genuine SOLO

replacement parts.

Changing the spray nozzle and the filter element:

See section 5.3
