SAFETY

The danger of physical injuries:
Never open the Pressure Sprayer or unscrew the nozzle when the Pressure Sprayer is still pressurized. To prevent injury, never connect the Pressure Sprayer to an air compressor. Always hold the Pressure Sprayer upright before the safety relief valve (9) (Fig. O1) is pulled. When spraying insecticides, herbicides and fungicides, or other liquid plant protection products, you must comply with all special precautionary measures specified by the manufacturer of the product you are using. Before each opening of the Pressure Sprayer, thoroughly release pressure by pulling the safety relief valve (9). DANGER! Small parts can be easily swallowed. There is also a risk that the polybag can suffocate toddlers. Keep toddlers away when you assemble the product.
Operation:
CAUTION: The tank may only be filled with a maximum of 5 liters of liquid. Inspect the Pressure Sprayer visually before each use. Never leave your Pressure Sprayer unattended or for long periods when full and pressurized. Keep the unit out of the reach of children. You are responsible for the safety of others. Keep your Pressure Sprayer away from heat sources and hot environments. Screw on the pump handle (10) tightly by hand (do not use tools) and ensure that the O-ring (15) (Fig. O1) is positioned correctly.
Cleaning:

Do not dispose of residual fluids in the sewerage system (local disposal systems). Always clean the Pressure Sprayer before using a different product to avoid chemical reactions. When using several Pressure Sprayers, the tanks and spray nozzle may not be exchanged between them. We recommend that you have your Pressure Sprayer thoroughly inspected (preferably at a GARDENA Service Centre) after using it for 5 years. Storage:
