The HERBIFLEX-4 can be used to apply bands of herbicides around buildings, fence
lines, borders and pathways as well as for treatment between crop rows. The weight
of the machine ready to spray, with the
Micropak
5 litre backpack, is 7 kg.
Specially designed Micron
Micropak
backpacks and a shoulder strap are available for
use with the HERBIFLEX-4. Other optional extras include an atomiser cone housing
(B 120) which allows a wider band to be sprayed and a spray shield (for use with the
standard A90 atomiser cone housing only).
The sprayer can also be supplied with a valve/handle conversion, as the HERBI-
FLEX-4 Extra, which allows Micron spray bottles to be fitted directly to the sprayer.
SAFETY
Using agrochemicals is a hazardous process. Operators should comply with all
relevant legislation and/or regulations governing the use of agrochemicals and should
use appropriate personal protective equipment (see 'OPERATOR PROTECTION').
Never
use the HERBIFLEX-4 in potentially explosive atmospheres or spray
flammable liquid through it.
The HERBIFLEX-4 can be used with most conventional herbicides, as well as
specific CDA formulations (only available in some countries) to provide a closed
transfer system to improve operator safety.
Never
eat, drink, or smoke when working with agrochemicals. After using
agrochemicals or handling equipment wash your hands thoroughly. Keep people
(especially children) and animals out of areas being sprayed.
Always
store agrochemicals safely to protect people and animals, and to safeguard
the environment (take special care to avoid water pollution). See spraying sections
for guidelines on safe use of the HERBIFLEX-4 in operation.
Always
read the product label carefully to
discover:-
♦
approved applications
♦
maximum dose rates
♦
maximum number of treatments
♦

♦

measures
N.B. ‘Dose rate’ refers to the amount of chemical product applied per hectare.
