Product Information

Full details

The Hozelock Pulsar Plus Pressure Sprayer (7 Litre) is designed for gardeners needing efficient and accurate application of liquids like fertilizers, pesticides, or weedkillers. Its key benefit is the precise mixing capability via a translucent, graduated bottle and dosing cap, ensuring correct concentrations. A potential caveat is the maximum fill level, which requires leaving space for pressurization.

FAQs

What is the maximum fill level for the 7-litre model?

The maximum fill level for the 7-litre model is 5 litres. This is to allow sufficient air gap for proper pressurization.

Can I use this sprayer for oil-based products?

This sprayer is designed for water-based liquids. It is not recommended for use with oil-based products as they may damage the seals or components.

How do I adjust the spray pattern?

The nozzle at the end of the lance can typically be twisted to adjust the spray pattern from a fine mist to a more direct stream. Refer to the product manual for specific adjustments.

How often should I clean the sprayer?

It is recommended to rinse the sprayer with clean water after each use. A more thorough cleaning of the nozzle and pump may be needed periodically or if blockages occur.

What is the warranty period for this product?

Please refer to the Hozelock warranty information provided with your product or on their official website for the specific warranty period.

Can I store mixed chemicals in the sprayer?

It is best to empty the sprayer after use and rinse it thoroughly. Storing chemicals long-term in the sprayer may degrade the plastic components over time.

Troubleshooting

Sprayer not building pressure

Ensure the pump assembly is screwed on tightly. Check that the nozzle is not fully closed. Inspect seals for damage and ensure they are properly seated.

Uneven or weak spray

Clean the nozzle and filter for blockages. Check if the tank is adequately pressurized. Ensure the liquid level is sufficient.

Leaks from the pump assembly

Verify that the pump assembly is properly tightened. Inspect the O-ring seal on the pump for wear or damage and replace if necessary.

Difficulty pumping

Ensure the large pump handle is being used with two hands. Check for any internal blockages in the pump mechanism. The tank may be over-pressurized; release some air if needed.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Accurate liquid measurement and mixing.
  • Ergonomic design for ease of use (two-handed pump, carry strap).
  • Durable construction suitable for garden chemicals.
  • Efficient pressurization for consistent spraying.
  • Good capacity for most home garden needs.

Cons

  • Requires leaving space for air, reducing total liquid capacity per fill.
  • Primarily designed for liquid applications, not granular materials.
  • Pump mechanism may require significant effort for some users.
  • Over-pressurization can occur if guidelines are not followed.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Unscrew the pump assembly from the bottle.
  2. Carefully pour the required amount of concentrate into the bottle.
  3. Add water to the desired level, ensuring not to exceed the maximum fill line (which accounts for air space needed for pressurization).
  4. Screw the pump assembly back onto the bottle securely.
  5. Pump the handle vigorously to build pressure inside the tank.
  6. Adjust the nozzle for the desired spray pattern (e.g., fine mist or stream).

Compatibility:

This sprayer is designed for water-based liquids, including fertilizers, pesticides, herbicides, and other garden treatments. Always check the compatibility of specific chemicals with plastic sprayers and follow chemical manufacturer instructions.

Care:

  • After each use, empty any remaining liquid and rinse the tank thoroughly with clean water.
  • Periodically clean the nozzle and pump mechanism according to the manufacturer's instructions to prevent blockages.
  • Store in a dry, frost-free location.
