3. Placing in service

The pressure sprayer must be de-pressurized before
disassembling any component, and before opening
the pump, by pulling on the pressure valve (Fig.4)!
Before pulling on the pressure valve the sprayer
must always be in an upright position.
Fig. 7 The pump must be removed to fill the spray
liquid. To do this, push the pump handle down and
turn it to the left (counterclockwise) until the handle
clicks into position. Unscrew pump by turning it
counter clockwise. Do not use any tools!
Fill the spray liquid to the fill mark maximum.
Model 461: 5 liters
Model 462: 7 liters
Model 463: 10 liters
In this regard, follow the safety directives and insure
the correct dosing according to the instructions
provided by the manufacturer of the spray
substance!

Thoroughly mix the liquid, insert pump and refasten
firmly by turning clockwise. Firmly tighten by turning
pump handle clockwise until it clicks into position.

To pump, loosen the pump handle by turning out of
the stop position. Pump the unit until the operating
pressure is reached in the container. Excessive
pressure escapes automatically through the safety
valve. (Fig. 4) Take the spray tube in your hand and
start the spray process by pressing the shut-off
valve. Releasing the shut-off valve stops the spray
process.

The shut-off valve can be blocked in the rest position
with the red clamp, to prevent unintended spraying.

Alternativ spray nozzles see the accessory overview
on the original packaging.

The spray tube can be rotated in the shut-off valve –
after loosening the threaded collar – this is useful for
spraying under leaves.

The pressure sprayer can also be carried by the
pump handle, if the pump handle is pressed down
completely, and it is turned to the right and clicked
into position.

4. Cleaning, care and storage

After each use, release pressure, always keeping the
sprayer in vertical position. Empty the container,
carefully clean, and rinse well with clean water. Do
not empty residual quantities of spray liquid into
watercourses; rather dispose of them via communal
disposal systems.
For cleaning nozzle, spray tube, and shut-off valve,
operate the sprayer using clean water (add
dishwashing detergent if required).

Occasionally clean the filter and spray nozzle with
water and a soft brush. Never use your mouth to blow
through the spray nozzle!

Never use aggressive, acidcontaining, solvent-
containing cleaning substances (gasoline for
example).

Always empty the sprayer completely and store it in a
location that is dry, frost-free, and protected from
direct sunlight.

Note:

It may be required to remove the pump
plunger from the cylinder to resolve the
malfunctions.

To do this, proceed as follows: Fig. 7 First screw the
pump out of the container (release pressure first!)

Fig. 8 To remove the pump plunger, (Fig. 8.1) turn it
counter-clockwise and pull it completely out of the
pump cylinder. (Fig. 8.5).

Do not use force, and do not use any tools.

To assemble, push the pump plunger into the pump
cylinder. Guide the plunger into the plunger socket
(Fig.8.2) and hold it with your thumb. Carefully pull
the pump plunger completely up and hold the plunger
socket in the pump cylinder. Turn the plunger socket
clockwise until the plunger socket clicks into place in
the pump cylinder. Do not use force and do not use
tools! Consult your dealer if you have questions.
