SOLO REPLACEMENT DIAPHRAGM PUMP TO SUIT 475 BACKPACK SPRAYER SO13443

Before each use, ensure the diaphragm pump is properly installed and the sprayer tank is clean. Fill the tank half-way with water first, then add the required amount of chemical based on your calibration calculations, and top up to the full mark with water. Pressurize the sprayer by pumping the handle 10-15 times until you feel resistance, then adjust the nozzle to your desired spray pattern. Maintain consistent walking speed and keep the nozzle approximately 50cm above the target area while spraying. Tips: Always calibrate your sprayer before the season starts by spraying 100m2 with water and measuring consumption — this is critical for accurate chemical application rates. Wear appropriate PPE including gloves and eye protection as specified on the chemical label, and never leave chemicals sitting in the tank overnight. After use, triple-rinse the tank and hose with clean water to prevent chemical residue and crop damage from future applications.
