Safety precautions
Always be careful when working with crop protection chemicals.
PERSONAL PROTECTION
Protective clothing / equipment should be used when
preparing the spray liquid, during the spraying work and
when cleaning the sprayer. Always follow all recommend-
ations on the chemical label.
Dependant on which type of chemical is used, the follow-
ing protective clothing / equipment should be used:
• Chemical resistant coverall
• Gloves
• Waterproof boots
• Headgear
• Respirator
• Safety goggles
This equipment should be worn to avoid poisoning, burns
and irritation to your eyes, skin and internal organs.
Contaminated clothing should be removed, and care
must be taken not to contaminate the inside of the tractor
cab.
It is always advisable to have clean water available,
especially when filling the sprayer with the chemical.
Always clean the sprayer carefully and immediately after
use.
Do not mix non compatible chemicals in the tank.
Always clean the sprayer thoroughly before changing to
another chemical.
ADDING CHEMICALS
WARNING! AGRICULTURAL CHEMICALS CAN
BE DANGEROUS.
Read chemical labels and follow directions for use,
storage, disposal of containers and first aid.
IMPORTANT! Carefully read your Granni Pot
Operators Manuals and follow directions for Use,
Cleaning, Decontamination and Storage.
CAUTION! The Granni Pot hopper flushing device
uses spray liquid for rinsing the hopper of concen-
trated chemical. Keep the lid closed when flushing
the hopper. The filler must always be cleaned
together with the rest of the sprayer when the
spray job is done.

Tips for Adding Liquid Chemical Concentrates
NOTE! The scale on the Granni Pot hopper can only be
used if the sprayer is parked on level ground, and
is a guide only. It is recommended to use a meas-
uring jug for best accuracy when measuring
concentrated liquid chemicals.
Empty chemical containers can be flushed with the
container flushing device. Place the container over the
multi-hole nozzle and press down to activate rinse jets.
WARNING!
Do not press on the multi-hole nozzle
after opening the GRANNI POT lid unless it is
covered by a container - to avoid spray hitting you.
IMPORTANT! The drum rinsing device uses spray
liquid for rinsing containers of concentrated chemi-
cals. Always rinse chemical containers with clean
water several times until they are clean, before
disposal.
Tips for
Adding Dry Chemical Concentrates
Fill the main tank at least 50% with water (unless other-
wise stated on chemical container label).
Measure correct quantity of chemical and sprinkle it into
the hopper as fast as the flushing device can flush it down.
NOTE! Some dry chemicals are readily blended into a
stable solution, while others will not remain in suspension
for extended periods. If particles have a tendency to settle,
keep the PTO engaged so the spray liquid is continuously
agitated until it has been sprayed onto the crop.
This will prevent blockages in the sprayer system and
promote even application of the chemical.
