3.  Attach the flow calibrator bottle to the wand:
  a. Remove the nozzle, cap and                                                  

 filter from the spray wand.

  b. Mount the flow calibrator                                                       

cover to the spray wand.

  c. Reinstall the nozzle, filter                                                          

and nozzle cap.

  d. Screw the flow calibrator                                                           

bottle into the cover.

4.  Using the flow calibrator bottle:
  a. Operate the pump handle to                                              

 maintain spray system pres-                                                 

 sure as you would when                                                          

 applying chemicals.  

  b. Hold the wand at your normal working position and spray 

into the bottle while walking  the distance identified in step 2 

above.

  c. Place the bottle on a level surface and observe the liquid 

level visible through the side of the bottle. Match the liquid 

level to the l/acre (liter per acre) scale on the calibration 

bottle.

  d. Multiply the l/acre (liter per acre) reading identified in 

step 4-c by .264 to determine your application coverage rate 

in gallons per acre.

  e. Empty the bottle contents back into the sprayer tank.

NOTE:

For improved accuracy in calibrating your application coverage, 

repeat steps 4-a through 4-e and average the results.

1.  Hold the wand 

at the working 

height and spray 

a test pattern to 

measure the appli-

cation band width.

2.  Based on the band 

width, identify from the 

table below the walking 

distance required to calibrate 

the sprayer.

Carefully read the labels on chemical contain-

ers prior to use. Chemicals are classified in four 

categories of toxicity:

■

  Category I, High Toxicity, Red label

■

  Category II, Moderate Toxicity, Yellow label

■

  Category III, Low Toxicity, Blue label

■

  Category IV, Light Toxicity, Green label

There are unique handling recommendations 

for each category, and you should familiarize 

yourself with them.

Always wear clothing and safety equipment that 

will provide appropriate protection against the 

materials you are handling. Equipment may 

include, but not be limited to:

■

  Long sleeve shirt

■

  Impermeable apron or coverall

■

  Impermeable gloves and boots

■

  Wide-brim hat

■

  Protective mask equipped with  

appropriate filters

Do not eat, drink, or smoke while handling 

chemicals or while you are spraying. Always 

handle chemicals in a well ventilated area while 

wearing appropriate protective clothing and 

safety equipment. DO NOT STORE OR TRANS-

PORT CHEMICALS WITH FOOD OR MEDI-

CINES, AND NEVER REUSE A CHEMICAL 

CONTAINER FOR ANY OTHER PURPOSE.

Keep chemicals out of the reach of children, 

animals, or other unauthorized people. When 

not in use, store chemicals in a safe place. Never 

blow through nozzles, valve, pipes or any other 

component by mouth!

When handling chemicals and when spraying, 

make sure you are operating in accordance with 

local, state, and federal environmental protection 

rules and guidelines. Do not spray in very hot 

or windy conditions. DO NOT POLLUTE THE 

ENVIRONMENT!

After spray application, take a thoroughly cleans-

ing shower using plenty of water and soap, then 

change into clean clothes. Protective clothing 

and safety gear should also be cleaned after each 

use. IN CASE OF EXPOSURE TO DANGER-

OUS CHEMICALS, seek a physician immedi-

ately and be prepared to provide the label from 

the chemical container.
