unigreen 216.4.2 TREATMENTS ON HERBACEOUS CULTIVATIONSa) Use the tables of pages 31-33 choosing the one relevant to the type ofcannon to use and the number of jets.b) Find the range and the diameter of the nozzles used (ceramic plate or TRnozzles).c) In the horizontal strip, choose the working speed and the distribution inlitres/hectare and on the vertical scale find the pressure to use.d) Adjust the pressure to obtain the treatment required.Note: the minimum range indicated in the table can vary significantlyaccording to the adjustment of the single jets (screwed in more or less).To verify the exact delivery of the fan do tests with clean water.7 HAND LANCESWhen using hand lances bear in mind the following notes:= Don’t direct the jet of liquid towards electric power lines or zones wherethere is electrical current, houses or where people might pass.= Don’t point the jet at people or animals.The jet can cause serious injuries simply due to the mechanical force of theliquid under pressure.= Never block the spraying lever of the lance in an open position because ifthe lance falls it will be uncontrollable.= At the end of work after you have stopped the pump, make sure that anyresidual pressure in the pipes under pressure has been drained to avoidunexpected jets when putting the lance away.There are various types of lances; with a lever, mitra spray gun and pistol grip.For further information please refer to the handbook in the package.The lever lance is controlled by opening lever A which, depending on howmuch it’s pressed, produces a conical spray or direct jet. The standard nozzleis Ø 1.5The mitra spray gun can produce a direct jet or a conical spray and the typeof spray is selected by pushing lever B forwards or backwards. Use lever C toopen the jet. The standard nozzle is Ø 2.5Replacement nozzles are available for all of the lances and the capacities areindicated in the tables TAB.4 and TAB.5 ( page 34).CBA
