How To Clean Your Knapsack Sprayer

When spraying lawns, you sometimes have to swap chemicals or clean out your chemical knapsack sprayer.
You can buy dedicated chemicals to do the job, but honestly, I’ve never used them nor do I feel I will ever need to.
Instead I just use a few basic things routinely to keep things working well most of the time.
If you’ve any questions please pope the down below.

Great to hear! It can be a boring topic but I've been asked before to do this.😊

Such a timely video, put iron on last week and halfway through the application the nozzle started to clog up and the fan was only 50% wide. Have ordered more nozzles but will give the knapsack a thorough clean this weekend and its filter. 👍

When mixing.. I rock my sprayer back and forth 100 times.. makes a big difference.. of use warm water itll mix a little easier

@@LawnRight that's where I have gone wrong, I haven't agitated the mix anywhere near as much as you. Lesson learnt lol

Thanks Shaun, another great video. Usually I just use a dedicated sprayer for hard surface weedkiller. But I was wondering could I use a mixture of iron & seaweed in a different sprayer to give the lawn a tonic boost?

Hi yeah thatll work fine. I also have different sprayers.. sooo much easier!

Bought a good condition used cp15 last week for £40 I used it the other day and boy what a useful piece of kit well impressed. Whats the best nozzle to use? Currently has only the green one and im mainly only using it for seaweed and iron applications

@LawnRight Жыл бұрын

Hi it depends what's being sprayed in all honesty. The green is a heavy application nozzle and wouldnt be used for weeds praying. A red flat fan would be a fine mist type nozzle.more suitable.
