7. Operating Hints

 

7.3 Misting

 

 

 

Before every use and before every start of the mistblower check and ensure the machine is in good and safe condition. (throttle operation, ignition switch, safety devices, shoulder strap and check for fuel leaks).

During the starting procedure and while operating the mistblower, the operator must have secure footing and have a safe body position.

The engine starting site should be at least 3 meters away from the refueling site.

7.1 Adjustment of shoulder straps

Fig. 7

Place the mistblower on the back and connect to quick couplings (Fig.1, 12) on either side.

The straps can be adjusted to the required length with friction slides. Simply pull down both strap ends to tighten straps (a).

Strap tension can be released by lifting both friction slides (b).

Note:

The shoulder straps are correctly adjusted when the back plate of the mist-blower rests firmly against the back of the operator.

7.2 Filling

For filling the equipment, always use the strainer inside the filler neck and observe the filler area through the filling process.

Prevent any direct contact between the external filling hose and the tank contents.

The spray medium must not be allowed to enter the water mains through backlash.

When filling with spray medium ensure, that neither environment, nature nor the water mains ever make contact with the spray medium.

Prevent the tank from overflowing, the contamination of public water, foul water and drainage channels.

The strainer has a mesh size of 0.55 mm. Only use original SOLO strainers, part no.: 42 00 104 with standard mesh size.

Open formula on/off tap: Lever in horizontal position – ON – (Fig.5).

Shut formula on/off tap: Lever in vertical position –OFF - (Fig.5).

The liquid output volume is adjusted by turning the dosage sleeve to different positions.

*) The delivery values when using a liquid pump (accessories) apply to every position of the spray wand.

Note: The liquid pump attachment comprises a special metering body, which should be installed when using a liquid pump.

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.
