Instruction manual
Original instructions
1. Safety directives and general
instructions
Compliance with this safety manual is a
prerequisite for proper operation of the sprayer.
The pressure sprayer must be checked before
each use.
Prior to every use, ensure the proper functioning
of the safety valve (4).
This pressure sprayer is suitable for applying
approved liquid plant protection, insecticides,
and weed killing substances, as well as liquid
fertilizers that are available from authorized
dealers. We recommend using only plant
protection substances that are approved by the
German BBA (German Federal Biological
Institute).
Solvent-free window cleaners, car wax, and
conservation substances are also suitable for
cleaning and care in private households.
The sprayer must be cleaned when changing the
spray substance. This avoids possible chemical
reactions.
Do not use liquids over 40°C.
Due to bodily hazard, only the abovementioned
liquid substances may be applied with this
sprayer. Disinfectants and impregnation
substances may not be used.
Never leave the filled and /or pressurized
pressure sprayer unattended for longer periods.
For safety reasons, children, young people
under the age of 16, and persons that are not
familiar with these operating instructions, may
not use this pressure sprayer.
The pressure sprayer must be kept out of the
reach of children.
The user is responsible relative to third persons.
The pressure sprayer must be de-pressurized
before disassembly of any component, and
before opening the pump, by pulling on the
pressure valve (Fig 3)! Before pulling on the
pressure valve, the sprayer must always be in an
upright position. Attention: keep the sprayer
away from your face!
Do not expose the pressure sprayer to high
temperatures.
Malfunctions of any kind, such as, for example
leaks at the tank, spray pipe and tubing,
signs of damage, cracks, etc.,
other irregularities,
is the syringe immediately make pressure on the
safety valve. The sprayer must not be reused, but
must be checked by a qualified person.
The manufacturer was not aware of any harmful
effects on the product materials caused by plant
protection substances at the time the product was
manufactured.
2. Assembly
You will find the following parts in the packaging
Spray tube
Alternative nozzle set with associated gasket
1 pc. each symbolic label for
container content: herbicide,
fungicide and insecticide.
NOTE: Affix the appropriate label to
identify the container content.
PLEASE NOTE:
Never pour different agents at the
same time into the container.
Before using a different agent,
thoroughly clean out the container
and all parts in contact with the
spray agent, then flush with plenty
of water. We recommend the
SOLO horticultural equipment
cleaner in 500 ml bottles; part no.
49 00 600.
Firmly screw the spray tube with O-Ring (16x3
mm) onto the shut-off valve. In the process, -fasten
the threaded collar (Fig.2 pos 9) on straight and
firmly tighten it by hand – do not use force and do
not use any tools to firmly fasten the collar!
When your work is completed, the spray tube
should be fitted into the holding clamp. Please put
the nozzle completely up (Fig 1).
3. Placing in service
The pressure sprayer must be de-pressurized
before disassembling any component, and before
opening the pump, by pulling on the pressure valve
(Fig 3)! Before pulling on the pressure valve the
sprayer must always be in an upright position.
The pump must be removed to fill the spray liquid.
To do this, push the pump handle down and turn it
to the left (counterclockwise) until the handle clicks
into position. Unscrew pump by turning it counter
clockwise. Do not use any tools!
Fill the spray liquid to the fill mark maximum.
Model 456: 5,0 liters
Model 457: 7,0 liters
In this regard, follow the safety directives and
insure the correct dosing according to the
instructions provided by the manufacturer of the
spray substance!
Thoroughly mix the liquid, insert pump and refasten
firmly by turning clockwise. Firmly tighten by
turning pump handle clockwise until it clicks into
position.

ENGLISH 3
To pump, loosen the pump handle by turning out
of the stop position. Pump the unit until the
operating pressure is reached in the container.
Excessive pressure escapes automatically through
the safety valve. (4) Take the spray tube in your
hand and start the spray process by pressing the
shut-off valve. Releasing the shut-off valve stops
the spray process.
The shut-off valve can be blocked in the rest
position with the red clamp, to prevent unintended
spraying.
Alternativ spray nozzles see the accessory
overview on the original packaging.
The spray tube can be rotated in the shut-off valve
– after loosening the threaded collar – this is
useful for spraying under leaves.
The pressure sprayer can also be carried by the
pump handle, if the pump handle is pressed down
completely, and it is turned to the right and clicked
into position.
4. Cleaning, care and storage
After each use, release pressure, always keeping
the sprayer in vertical position. Empty the
container, carefully clean, and rinse well with clean
water. Do not empty residual quantities of spray
liquid into watercourses; rather dispose of them via
communal disposal systems.
For cleaning nozzle, spray tube, and shut-off
valve, operate the sprayer using clean water (add
dishwashing detergent if required).
Occasionally clean the filter and spray nozzle with
water and a soft brush. Never use your mouth to
blow through the spray nozzle!
Never use aggressive, acidcontaining, solvent-
containing cleaning substances (gasoline for
example).
Always empty the sprayer completely and store it
in a location that is dry, frost-free, and protected
from direct sunlight.
For proper sealing of tank,
cap gasket (10) must be well
greased with silicone grease.
If the pump is hard to operate, the sealing ring (Fig.
7 – Pos. 11) should be greased with silicone
grease or replaced if necessary. The pump has to
be disassembled as follows for this job:
Fig.4: Ensure the sprayer is empty and not
pressurized. Place sprayer securely on level
ground. When the pump is completely screwed
onto container, loosen pump with 1 – 2 turns.
Fig. 5: Firmly hold the pump handle with both
hands and push downwards until the pump
releases from the flange housing with an audible
click. Unscrew the red flange housing from the
sprayer and remove the pump from the container.
Fig. 6: Use a screwdriver to lever both black flange
semi-circles from the pump cylinder. The pump
piston can now be pulled from the pump cylinder.
Fig. 7: The sealing rig (11) can now be re-greased
with silicone grease or replaced if damaged.
Assembly:
Fig. 8: Place the red flange housing correctly on
the pump piston.
Push the pump piston into the pump cylinder. Push
both black flange semi-circles onto the pump
cylinder until they lock with an audible click.
Fig. 9: Place the pump cylinder securely on level
ground. Line up the red flange housing in the exact
position and firmly push the red flange housing
down with both hands onto the pump cylinder until
the parts lock together with an audible click.
Consult your dealer if you have questions.

7. Workshop service, replacement parts and guarantee
Maintenance and repair:
Maintenance and repair of modern motorized devices, as well as their safety-relevant assemblies, require
qualified, specialized training and a workshop equipped with special tools and test devices.
Thus SOLO recommends that you have a specialized SOLO workshop carry out all work that is not
described in these operating instructions. Your SOLO specialist has the required training, experience, and
equipment at his disposal to provide you with the most cost-effective solution and can help you in many
ways with advice and service.
Replacement parts:
Dependable operation and the safety of your device also depend on the quality of the replacement parts
that you use. Use only original SOLO replacement parts.
Only original parts come from the production of the device and thus guarantee the highest possible
material quality, dimensional accuracy, function, and safety. Original replacement parts and accessory
parts are available from your dealer. He also maintains the requisite replacement part lists to determine
the required replacement part numbers, and he is constantly provided with information concerning detail
improvements and innovations in the replacement part offering.
Please note as well that guarantee performances from SOLO are not possible if parts other than SOLO
original parts are used.
Guarantee:
SOLO guarantees problem-free quality and will assume the costs for defect remediation by replacing the
defective parts in the case of material or manufacturing defects that occur within the guarantee period after
the date of purchase.
Please note that specific guarantee conditions apply in some countries. Ask your sales person if you have
any questions. As vendor of the products he is responsible for the guarantee.
