Hektaş Erato

PREPARING THE PLANT PROTECTION PRODUCT FOR APPLICATION:
The plant protection product calculated over the recommended dose is first mixed with some water in a separate container. The tank of the sprayer is filled halfway with water. While the mixer of the machine is running, the prepared mixture is added to the tank. Mixing is continued and the tank is filled with water. The mixing process is continued until the application is completed. The amount of water to be used per decare should be 20-40 liters and fan jet nozzles should be used in applications. Applications should be made at cool times of the day, in windless or slightly windy weather conditions. Use the prepared mixture on the same day.

CALIBRATION:
Before the application, the sprayer must be calibrated. In order to determine the amount of water to be used per decare, the tank of the sprayer is filled with water. How much area is wetted with this water is determined and the amount of water to be used in the application is calculated.

CLEANING THE SPRAYING MACHINE:
Immediately after the completion of the application, safely empty the tank of the sprayer. After filling the tank with clean water, run the mixer and spray system to ensure that all parts are washed. Do not wash near water sources. Do not discharge washing water and waste into water sources.
