LIABILITY
The maximum liability, which is accepted by C-Dax Ltd, is limited to replacement of faulty goods only. Every care has
been taken in the manufacture of our goods but because use of the goods is outside the control of the manufacturer, the
end user assumes all responsibility for the use. Neither the manufacturer nor retailer shall be liable for loss or damage
resulting from use.
Any advice or recommendations given by C-Dax Ltd, its agents, or employees is given in good faith and based on the
best information available to us. No liability or responsibility is accepted or implied as a result of any information or
advice tendered by C-Dax Ltd, its agents or employees. The end user accepts all responsibility arising from that advice.
THEORY OF OPERATION
Spray fluid is prepared and placed in the tank via the lid opening and strainer basket. Foreign matter is trapped in the
strainer mesh for disposal after the tank has been filled.
When the pump is switched on power is applied to the pump motor from the battery. When the pump operates, fluid is
drawn through the filtered suction line and into the pump.
With each rotation of the pump motor, fluid is forced via valves into a high-pressure chamber in the pump head. Fluid
exits from the chamber via a check valve into the delivery hose of the sprayer. Providing the delivery hose has an open
orifice fluid will flow from the hose. If the hose is closed such as when the spray gun valve is not operated, pressure will
build up in the hose and pump head.
When the spray gun valve is opened, the pressure will drop and the pump will start to operate.
OPERATING HINTS
Spray Hose
Secure the spray hose and lance in the stowed position under the two lugs of the fresh water tank as shown on the cover
of this manual.
Nozzle Choice
The provided nozzles have been selected to match the performance of the pump.
The flat fan nozzle [44649] gives good atomisation without too much drift at 35PSI (2.5 bar).
The adjustable nozzle [60027] gives a solid cone pattern, ideal for spot spraying.
If smaller nozzles are used the pump will ‘cycle’ - turn on and off. This is accommodated by the pump but causes
pressure fluctuations, and may eventually reduce pump life.
Pump
The pump does not have a “continuous rating” at pressures above 25 psi (1.7 bar). Running continuously for more than
one hour is not recommended.
CAUTION
For best performance do not adjust the tip so fine that the pump starts to cycle. A coarser spray pattern will produce less
drift.
WARNING
The SO200 has a maximum capacity of 205L. If mounting this sprayer on an ATV, check that the vehicle weight limits
are not exceeded.
CHEMICAL APPLICATION
As no control can be exercised over the use of the equipment or over weather, plant or soil conditions, or over the
storage, handling, mixing, use or application of sprays or chemicals, C-Dax Ltd will not accept any liability for loss or
damage (consequential or otherwise) arising directly or indirectly from the use of this equipment.
