1. INTRODUCTION
The sprayers SN are machines for agricultural plant protection in wine yards and orchards.
They transfer the protection agent with an air stream to the plants. The success of the
protection depends on the protection agent, the technique of the protection and the user.
However, we must not only look the efficiency of the spraying, we must also take care of the
environment and the best results always achieved by a symbiosis of the components.
The series SN sprayers are state of the art products for agricultural plants protection, their air
deflector and fan constructed to provide the best results in plant protection. Their construction
reduces also the noise, the necessary horsepower and the burden on the user.
With the sprayers SN, we can protect the plants:
a) Sprinkle 800 - 1500 l/ha
b) Spraying
- Rough spraying 400 - 800 l/ha
- Fine spraying 100 - 400 l/ha
- Very fine spraying do 100 l/ha (only with electrostatic)
In modern plant protection we rarely use high amounts of water (800 - 1500 l/ha), because it is
uneconomical- the loss of the protection agent is enormous (The droplets combine and flow of
the leaf- by 1500 l/ha almost 50 %) and the pollution (ground water).
Spraying with 400 - 800 l/ha are already treated as concentrated plant protection, where the
concentration is from two to four times.
Fine spraying 150 - 400 l/ha has a concentration from four - eight times.
Very fine spraying comes in consideration only in use of electrostatic and spraying every
second row.
The quantity of the protection agent used depends on the technique used and the habitat of the
plant. With the use of our sprayers, you will be able to reduce the luxury consumption of the
protection agent, protect the environment and increase the productivity.

2. GENERAL SAFETY ADVICE
EXTREME CAUTION while working with chemical mixtures.
The sprayers from the series SN has been manufactured according to the state
of the art and the certified safety regulations. Nerveless, the operation of the
machine could be dangerous if it not used properly.
1. For your own safety always, wear personal protection wear, like boots, gloves and hat.
2. Avoid the contact between skin and toxic mediums.
3. When you work with toxic mediums, always be sure, that you have near clear water and
that clean water tank is full.
4. Do not leave the toxic mediums or they package outside or in rooms, where they are in
reach of children or unauthorized persons.
5. Equipment used for toxic mediums should never be used for work with food, drinks and
clean water, we recommend that you mark these items and deposit them in a safe place.
Do not drink, eat or smoke whilst spraying or working with contaminated
equipment.
6. Store the sprayer always in a safe place where the slope should not be more than 8, 5°.
7. Avoid working when the wind is greater than 3 m/s – possible droplet carrying.
8. While the sprayer is working, avoid staying in the wind stream.
Rotating parts are attractive to children, so be sure that there are no children
while the sprayer is operating.
3. SAFETY SYMBOLS
WARNING! – read carefully, by this sign.
Obligation: safety gear.
Read carefully before you start working.
Before you start with reparations, shut down the engine and take the key
out of the lock.

The machine could swing, so have always enough distance.
When the hydraulic components are moving do not be in their working
area.
Danger of squeezing between the machine and the load, when it is
oscillating.
Do not stay near the P.T.O. injuries possible.
Do not go into the tanks- TOXIC.
DANGER: rotating parts- do not reach with your hands near the fan.
DANGER: rotating parts- keep the protection cover always closed

4. DESCRIPTION
The sprayer ZM 100 SN and ZM 200 SN should be used for:
-Spraying in wine yards and orchards, with protection agents that are free in sale,
with the consideration of their manufacturer manuals.
-Work in wine yards and orchards with a row width till 3, 0 m and a maximal culture
height of 3,0 m.
When the machine is not anymore for use, do not throw it away anywhere, but bring it
back to your seller, who will take care of the proper destruction of the machine.
Implications by the use of certain pesticides
We point out that some pesticides can cause by prolonged exposure time (20 hours)
damage to the pumps, hoses, spray lines and tanks. Therefore, prolonged stay of
pesticides in containers, pump and spray system for more than 15 hours is prohibited.
When using such aggressive plant protection products, the immediate spreading of the
spray mixture and the subsequent rinse with clean water is recommended.
Pay attention particularly against improper mixtures of two or more different pesticides.
They should not be applied substances that tend to stick or solidify.
As a replacement, for standard pumps, are pumps in brass available. These are
resistant to solvent-based pesticides.
For sprayer used materials and components are liquid fertilizer proof.
Type plate
On the frame of the sprayer is a plate with information of the manufacturer, the model,
production year, max. revolutions of the P.T.O. max. work pressure and serial number.
On the pump is also a plate that indicates the manufacturer, max. work pressure and
the max. fluid stream.

6. WORKING PRINCIPE OF THE SPRAYER
The protection agent flows from the tank through the sucking filter to the pump and from pump
under high pressure through the pressure filter to both spraying sides. With the pressure
regulations valve you can regulate the pressure with the turn the pressure regulation handle to
the right (clockwise) to increase the pressure, or to the left (counterclockwise) to decrease the
pressure.
Before you run the sprayer, turn the regulation handle to the left, so that there is no pressure
on the manometer. When you have working rpm, turn the handle to the right so long, that you
achieve the wanted pressure on the manometer
When the nozzles are closed, all fluid is returning to the tank, when they are operating, a part
of the fluid is for spraying and a part returned in the tank.
Tank mixers must be always on, to secure the homogeneity of the protection agent. When the
level of the fluid sinks under 10 l, you must close them to prevent foaming.
Do not have a pressure above 15 bars. With to high pressure the efficiency of
the spraying sinks. For a higher range of droplets, increase the rpm of the
fan, not the pressure!

WORKING SCHEME OF THE SPRAYER
7. BEFORE THE USAGE
Read the operator` s manual near the sprayer and check the written on the machine.
After studying of the manual, you can begin with the operating with the sprayer, but make it as
written in the manual described.
We recommend the next steps:
1. Connect the sprayer.
2. Control if it is working properly.
3. Fill the tank with water.
4. Turn the P.T.O. on and check if the pump and the pressure unit are working
properly.
5. Check all connections and nozzle holders.
6. Turn the P.T.O. off.
7. Clean the sucking and pressure filter.
8. Make a test spraying with clean water and a speed test (100 m test).
9. After the test spraying or the first two hours of spraying check all screws,
especially on the pump and the fan multiplier.
