Thought out to the smallest detail

The sprayer is put on the shoulders and fastens on the belt, so the load is evenly distributed on the back. You don't have to bend over, as the pressure is pumped up by a lever. Moreover, it can be located on either side of the tank, which makes the device convenient for left-handers. Due to the high pressure (nominal 5.9 bar), the pressure easily reaches the tops of garden trees.

No less convenient is the process of watering. The hose is moderately long so as not to get confused — 135 cm, and the tube is short — 60 cm. At the same time, it has a handle lock that can be clamped to spray in the selected mode and thereby relieve the load from the brush. A mesh filter is inserted into the large-diameter neck, so liquid can be poured into the tank even from a bucket.

After work, the tube and lever are conveniently fixed on the body, and the device acquires a compact look.
