shut during transport and when not using the sprayer.
7.1. Triple rinse of empty agrochemicals containers
NOTE: Even the containers considered empty contain chemical residues. There-
fore, discarding the containers without washing out the residues is extremely dan-
gerous to man, animals and environment. In the case of metal, plastic and glass
chemical containers, each container must be rinsed three times to ensure the resi-
dues are completely removed. This manual describes how to make the triple rinse
in a correct, safe and effective way.
1.
Immediately after emptying the container, you must keep it with the
opening upside down over the sprayer tank opening or over the bucket
that you are using to prepare the chemical mixture for at least 30 seconds,
until no residue is left in the container, when the drops are falling in long
intervals.
2.
Hold the container in the upright position and fill it with water up to 1/4.
For example: in a 1000 ml container, put 250 ml of water.
3.
Install the container cap and tighten enough to avoid leakage during the
agitation.
4.
Agitate the container strongly in all ways (horizontal and vertical), for ap-
proximately 30 seconds to remove the residues that are on the container
internal walls.
5.
Take the container cap off and carefully pour the rinse water into the spray
tank.
6.
Keep holding the container over the spray tank opening for approximate-
ly 30 seconds to the last drop.
7.
Repeat this operation twice more. This way, you complete the triple rinse.
8.
Make the plastic and metallic containers useless by piercing the container
bottom with a pointed instrument. This way, their labels are not damaged
for identification purposes.

8.2. Assembling the lance to the trigger valve
Fit the lance into the trigger valve and thread enough so that there is no leakage,
as shown in the image below:
WARNING!
Do not overtighten the screw cap.
9. Operating Instructions
The following steps describe how to safely use the sprayer.
9.1. Choosing nozzle type
Three nozzles are supplied with the equipment. Each one is designed for a specific
use, according with the user need.
Pest Control nozzles:
• Blue adjustable cone nozzle - It allows the adjustment of the spray to fine
drops in the shape of a cone pattern and to a jet stream from short to long
distances (about 6 meters).
• JEF 8002 yellow nozzle - A uniform flat fan nozzle with good application
range with an 80 ° opening angle, fine droplets for optimum coverage and a
flow rate of 0.8 L / min at 45 psi - ideal for perimeter and full area applications.
Disinfection nozzle:
• JEF 8001 orange nozzle - A uniform flat fan nozzle with good application
range with an 80 ° opening angle, very fine droplets for optimal coverage and
flow rate of 0.4 L / min at 45 psi - ideal for indoor applications that require low
volume with excellent distribution.
