Can I use this sprayer with the telescopic lances?

Yes. This battery powered sprayer can be connected directly to our long telescopic lances including both the 5.4 metre and 3.2 metre models however you must be sure to use the correct nozzles in the correct pressure setting to ensure the most suitable working pressure and that no damage can be caused to the sprayer.

How long does this sprayer take to charge?

If you have allowed the battery to run completely out of power then a full charge could take around 2.5 - 3 hours but, generally, a standard recharge is normally around 20-60 minutes. The battery has 3 indicator lights to show its level of charge and these can be seen by pressing the button situated beside the lights. When the battery is fully charged the red light of the charger will change to green and there will be three lights on the battery, if only the battery lights are showing then this means the charge is around 90% at which point the charging slows down.

What does the 'maximum spray' mean?

This sprayer has two spray settings (low & high) which is to reduce spray waste when you are looking to spray different types of chemicals. The two settings use different amounts of battery power with the higher pressure obviously using more than the low. This is why we give two figures for the maximum spray and it is intended as a guide to show you just how much a full battery charge can allow you to spray.

Is a battery included with the sprayer?

Yes. All of our electric backpack sprayers are supplied with both a battery and charger so everything that you need to start, and keep, spraying.
