Intended use:
The GARDENA Pressure Sprayer is intended for distributing solvent-free liquid
pesticides 1), herbicides 1), fertilizers 1), window cleaners 1), and car wax
- in domestic gardens and allotments. It must not be used in public places,
parks, sports arenas, or in agriculture or forestry. Compliance with the
specifications in this operating manual is a requirement for the proper use of
the Pressure Sprayer. 1) According to the Plant Protection Law as well as the
Detergents and Cleaning Agents Law, only approved agents may be used
(authorized specialist dealers).
Please note:
Due to the risk of physical injury, the GARDENA Pressure Sprayer must not be used for spraying substances other than those specified by GARDENA. Also, no acids, disinfectants, or impregnators, aggressive and solvent-containing cleaning agents, petrol or spray oil may be sprayed.
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:
Release the pressure after each use, empty the container, clean it carefully
and rinse with clear water. Then leave the pressure sprayer open and allow it
to dry. 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:
Before storing, loosen the tank cap and always empty your Pressure Sprayer
completely (also after cleaning with water). Store away from frost. If you use
the permanent lock (13) (Fig. O3) pay attention that you work very carefully.
Carry the pressure sprayer only by the locked pump handle (10). Make sure that
the product is protected from direct sunlight. The product may heat up.
