ENGLISH 3

5.4 Operating Hints
While running, the engine produces toxic exhaust gas which is odourless and invisible. Never start or operate the machine in closed rooms. Ensure for adequate ventilation in confined areas such as ditches or dips.
No other persons should be present within a circle of 15 meters from the operator. Keep persons and animals away from areas in which you are working. Never spray in the direction of
other persons, animals or objects that could be damaged as a result. Bear in mind that the liquid emerges at high speed from the spray tube. Objects could be kicked up as a result, and this could in some cases represent a risk. The user is responsible for any hazards or accidents involving other persons and/or their property. Never operate on unstable ground. Watch out for any obstacles such as tree stumps, tree roots, ditches, etc. Take special care while working along slopes. Never touch a hot exhaust.
5.5 Irregularities, incidents, accidents
In case of irregularities, leaks, visible damage or reduced efficiency, do not commence work, but leave the unit from a dealer check.
When irregularity, leaks or malfunctions occur during operation, turn off the stop switch immediately and put the machine on the ground immediately. The device may only be used again if it is checked by a specialist workshop and the cause of the fault has been eradicated.
In case of serious disturbances or accidents during operation of the unit as smoke, strong odors from the device or the device is in flames instantly remove the unit from your body and take a safe distance. In case of fire, you have to call the fire department immediately.
5.6 Safe handling of spraying agents
Avoid contaminating the environment, the mains water supply and/or public sewer systems with spraying agent or cleaner! Ensure to avoid contamination when mixing, filling, using, draining, cleaning, servicing and transporting by using adequate procedures and suitable containers.
Spraying agents and cleaners must never be allowed to enter the mains water supply ­ not even by back-suction when filling, public sewer systems, sprayed onto wastelands, allowed to drain into natural bodies of water or disposed of together with normal domestic waste. This also means that appropriate care must be taken during filling to ensure that none of the spraying agent is drawn back into water pipes. Spraying agents and cleaners and any unused leftovers of spraying agents and cleaners must always be collected in a suitable container and disposed of via approved facilities for household chemical waste. Please contact your local authorities for information about your nearest disposal facilities.
Avoid any direct contact with spraying agents. In case of contact with harmful pesticides rinse the affected body parts immediately with plenty of water, any clothing soaked with spraying agents should be changed immediately, seek medical advice if needed.
Stop working immediately if you start to feel unwell while working, or if you become unusually tired. Seek medical advice if the condition persists.
Never allow children or anybody who is not familiar with handling this type of spraying agent to handle the spraying agent.
Clean the spraying agent tank and all other spraying agent carrying parts whenever the spraying agent is changed. To flush out any residue from the agent tank and the hose, run the device with clean water after cleaning the spraying agent tank and before the next spraying agent is filled in. This will prevent the risk of any chemical reactions taking place between the different substances.
Never use the device in narrow or enclosed spaces ­ spraying agents are toxic and there is a risk of poisoning. Spraying equipment must for example only be used in greenhouses if adequate ventilation is provided. Signs must be put up in greenhouses that have been treated. Nobody should enter the greenhouse again until it has been thoroughly ventilated.
When you have finished working, prepare the device for storage according to section 13.5 / section 13.6, thoroughly wash your face and hands with soap, take off your work clothing and ensure that it is washed regularly. Any unused spraying agent that is left over in the device could cause corrosion and hence damage the device. Special attention must be paid to wearing parts like hoses, filters and seals.

Remove tank lid and fill fuel mix up to the lower edge of the filler neck. Do not overfill. If possible, always use a fuel funnel with filter.
Fill in card fully to avoid spilling of fuel or oil. Replace and secure fuel tank lid.
10. Filling
When handling the spraying agents, always follow the safety instructions of these operating instructions (pay special attention to section 5.6) and the information provided by the manufacturer of the particular spraying agent.
Spraying agent volume: Mix the spraying agents according to the instructions provided by the manufacturer of the spraying agent. Choose the appropriate volume according to requirements.
Mixing spraying agents: Only mix spraying agents out in the open. Never do this inside living spaces, stables or in storage spaces that are used for food or animal feed. Never mix the spraying agent directly in the spraying agent tank.
When using spraying agents that have been mixed from herbal preparations, the liquid needs to be pre-filtered.
For filling the equipment, always use the strainer inside the filler neck and observe the filler area through the filling process. The strainer has a mesh size of 0.5 mm. Only use original SOLO strainers, part no.: 15137 with standard mesh size.
Avoid any direct contact of the filling hose and the contents of the spraying agent tank.
Fill level markings are applied to the backside of the spraying agent tank . When filling up the tank, ensure that you do not fill above the top marking (maximum fill volume).
Never allow the spraying agent tank to overflow or public bodies of water, rainwater drains or sewage drains to become contaminated. Immediately wipe up any spilled spraying agent.

Press primer (11) several times until fuel is visible in the primer.
Hold the device down with your left hand. Place a foot on the base additionally if necessary. With the right hand, slowly pull out the starter handle (7) until resistance is felt. Then pull quickly and forcibly until the engine attempts to start (engine fires). If the engine “tries” to start (ignite), set the choke in the middle position (partially open)
and if necessary repeat the starting procedure. In very cold ambient temperature, let the engine with the choke in the middle position (partially open) warm up briefly.
As soon as the engine runs smoothly, set the choke in the open position.

Starting with warm engine after short stop Start the engine with choke in open position.
Shutting off engine Release throttle lever. After full load running bring the engine to idle for
20sec to cool down. Move ignition switch to “Stop” position.

Please note: When using a liquid pump, ensure that the tank contains sufficient liquid. The liquid pump can sustain severe damage, if it is permitted to run dry. When using the equipment as a mister and as blower, remove the pump for that reason.

ENGLISH 7

12.2 Spraying
When applying spraying agent, ensure by using appropriate measures and procedures that the unintended release of agent to other areas is minimized and the drift to the surrounding areas is prevented.
Always proceed with the greatest care when spraying.
Never use the device under windy conditions or if it is raining, as this would risk widespread drifting of the spraying agent.
Check the wind direction before starting work and select the spraying direction downwind of the user.
It is best to perform spraying work in the morning or evening, as it tends to be less windy then.
Ensure that you only wet what is in fact intended to be covered with spraying agents.
Never spray the agent towards persons, animals, open windows or doors, cars or anything else that could be damaged by the spraying agent.
Spraying: Approach the target object with the engine at idling speed. Accelerate to full engine speed, then open formula on-off tap.
Wide-range nozzle (18):
Fig. 12 When spraying plants and trees we recommend fixing the wide-range nozzle (18) onto the red standard nozzle (15). This ensures that a large area can be sprayed at one time. Push the widerange nozzle onto the standard nozzle, until the bead engages.
In narrow spaces and for aftercare, we recommend placing the wide-angle grille (18a) onto the wide-range nozzle (18). This ensures that the spray velocity is reduced and the spray is applied more widespread, to prevent damage to leaves.

12.3 Residual spray medium
Switch off the appliance as soon as no further liquid is expelled, when the metering body is correctly positioned for spraying, or air bubbles are visible inside the lance supply hose.
The tank will then contain less than 100 ml residual medium.
If you don’t want to refill the tank with spray medium and you want to terminate spraying, dilute the residual medium with 2 l of water. Dispose of this solution on the treated area.

ENGLISH 8

13. Maintenance and care
Any cleaning, maintenance or repair jobs should only be performed when the engine is stopped and with removed spark plug cap. The exception, of course, is carburetor tuning.
Any service jobs, other than those described in this manual, should only be carried out by an authorized service center. Only original parts may be used for any maintenance and service work.
Never modify your motorized mistblower ­ your personal safety is at risk.
Never service or store the machine near an open flame.
Regularly check the fuel tank lid for sealing and tank ventilation. Only use recommended spark plugs. Check ignition cable for any damage.
After a running in period of approx. 5 hours, all accessible screws and nuts (except for carburetor mixture adjustment needles) have to be checked and re- tightened if required.
Never operate a motorized mistblower with a damaged muffler or without muffler (fire risk and risk of damage to hearing). Do not touch hot muffler.
13.1 Air Filter Maintenance
The air filter separates and retains dirt before the air reaches the combustion chamber. This reduces engine wear. Regular maintenance increases engine life. Clogged air filters cause performance loss and increased fuel consumption. This leads to a higher toxin level in the exhaust gas and also makes starting more difficult.
Before opening the air filter housing, close the choke to prevent dirt entering the carburettor.
Fig. 13 To open the air filter housing press in the black clamp and open the housing cover downwards.
Fig. 14 Remove foam filter. When the machine is used all day, the air filter should be cleaned daily. In severe dust conditions clean more often in between. For daily cleaning: Tap the air filter against an object or use an air gun.
With heavy dust conditions and for normal weekly check: Wash a heavily soiled filter in non-flammable cleaning solvents (warm soapy water).

Wipe the air cleaner housing clean with a dry or slightly damp cloth. Before inserting the filter, the housing and the filter must be completely dry again.
Never insert moist or wet foam filters! Immediately replace damaged filter parts.
When re-fitting, ensure the filter is positioned and seated properly.
If the filter material is damaged, replace the corresponding parts immediately.
Warranty claims cannot be accepted for damaged engine parts caused by improper care and maintenance.

13.2 Carburettor adjustment
The carburettor has been adjusted optimally at the factory. Subject to the operational altitude (mountains or low lying areas), the carburettor may require readjustment.
Fig. 15 Turn the idling end-stop screw “T” to adjust the idling speed in accordance with the details provided in the specification. Use an engine rev counter for this job.
If the idling speed is too high, turn the idling end-stop screw “T” anti- clockwise.
If the idling speed is too low (engine stops) turn the idling end-stop screw “T” clockwise until the engine runs smoothly.
If the idling speed cannot be set correctly with the idling end-stop screw “T”, request an authorised service centre to tune the carburettor.
Only qualified mechanics must adjust the regulating screws for idle mixture “L” and full load mixture “H”.

13.3 Spark Plug

The correct spark plug with thermal range 200 is available under the following brands:

BOSCH

WSR6F

CHAMPION RCJ-6Y

NGK

BPMR7A

The correct electrode gap is 0.5 mm.

Check the plug after every 50 operating hours and replace if electrodes are worn.

ENGLISH 9

13.4 Checking the spray medium flow rate
At the beginning of the spraying season, check whether the equipment flow rate (l/min) still corresponds to the ,,Guide values” table (see also item ,,Maintenance schedule”).
For this, fill the equipment up to the maximum marker with water, start using the equipment and spray for one minute exactly at maximum operating pressure. Then measure the water volume required to bring the water level back up to the maximum marker.
The actual volume measured represents the flow rate of the equipment in l/min at maximum operating pressure.
It should not deviate by more than 10 % from those listed in the ,,Guide values” table. Should the actual value be too low, sediments inside the metering body may be the cause. Clean the corresponding parts and repeat the checking procedure.
Should the actual value be too high, the metering body may be worn or damaged. In that case, replace the metering body with a new one (part no.:13008).

13.6 Shutdown and storage
Clean the power tool after use.
Never use aggressive cleaning solutions or those containing solvents to clean any part of the engine. Never hose down the engine. For best results, simply wipe down the entire engine with a dry or slightly damp cloth.
Store the device in a dry, safe location inside a building (garage, basement, …). There must not be any open fires or similar nearby. Ensure that the device cannot be used by unauthorised persons, especially children.
If not in use for more than four weeks, drain the fuel tank in a well ventilated location before storing. Start the engine with an empty fuel tank and drain the carburettor until the engine stops. Oil residues from the fuel mixture could otherwise clog the carburettor jets and make it difficult to start the device later.

13.5 Draining and cleaning the tank

For cleaning purposes, the tank can be fully drained into a suitable container via the supply hose.
For this, the engine must be cooled down.
Position the equipment onto a stable higher support, so that the spray medium can drain into a suitable container below.
Above the container, pull the supply hose from the shut-off valve.
If required, tip the equipment slightly to drain the tank completely.
Ensure that the spray medium does not run over the equipment (especially the engine), but drains directly into the suitable container.
Fig. 16 Dispose of residual spray medium correctly at disposal sites licensed for specialised waste.
Empty the spray medium tank daily after work and flush thoroughly with water.
Observe cleaning instructions supplied with the herbicide/fungicide.
After cleaning, let the spray medium container dry in an open state.
Fig. 17 Occasionally clean the strainer inside the filler neck, the strainer in the accessory set and all parts in contact with the medium, with water and a soft brush.

ENGLISH 10

before starting work daily weekly after the first 5 hours after every 50 hours work as required before spray season

14. Maintenance Plan
