When using the backpack 
connector the airbleed 
tube must be fitted as 
shown 

If the spray head is horizontal the spray 
should project forward about 0.6 m and 
produce a pattern or band around 0.5 m 
wide using the standard atomiser cone 
housing (A 90). 

If the head is angled downwards the 
band width will be reduced.  The an-
gle of the spray head should not ex-
ceed 45° otherwise dripping will re-
sult. 

Changing the angle of the spray head 
will adjust the band width produced.  
To change the angle of the spray head 
slacken the vertical adjustment nut (1), 
alter the angle of the head (2), re-
tighten the nut and check the new 
band width produced. 

The head of the HERBIFLEX-4 can 
also be turned sideways in order to 
spray narrow lines or adjust the place-
ment of the spray pattern produced.  
To do this slacken the horizontal ad-
justment nut (3), rotate the head (4) 
and re-tighten to lock the position.
