Product Information
Full details
The Hozelock 10 Litre Multi Purpose Garden Sprayer is designed for homeowners and commercial gardeners who require a reliable tool for applying water, pesticides, insecticides, and water-soluble fertilizers. Its primary strength lies in its user-friendly, graduated tank design that ensures precise chemical mixing and efficient coverage across larger garden areas. While it offers excellent capacity and reach, users should note that the unit requires manual pumping to maintain pressure, which may become physically demanding during extended use.

FAQs
Can I use this sprayer for oil-based chemicals?
This sprayer is designed primarily for water-based chemicals, fertilizers, and pesticides. Check the label of your chemical to ensure compatibility with polypropylene sprayers.
How much liquid can I put in the 10-litre tank?
The maximum liquid capacity is 8 litres, which allows enough space for the necessary air pressure to build up.
Is the spray pattern adjustable?
Yes, the cone nozzle is adjustable, allowing you to switch between a straight jet and a fine mist.
How do I prevent the nozzle from clogging?
Always strain chemicals when filling the tank and flush the sprayer with clean water after every use.
Does it come with a strap?
Yes, it includes a carrying strap for added comfort and maneuverability during use.
Troubleshooting
The sprayer is not building pressure
Ensure the pump cap is screwed on tightly and check the integrated pressure release valve is fully closed.
Spray is inconsistent or sputtering
Clean the nozzle tip of any debris and check the filter inside the handle for blockages.
Liquid is leaking from the handle or lance
Verify that all rubber seals and o-rings are properly seated and not pinched or worn.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up your sprayer, assemble the lance and hose, ensuring all seals are tightly connected to maintain airtight integrity. After each use, it is critical to empty the remaining contents, especially after using harsh chemicals. Flush the system with clean, fresh water by spraying it through the nozzle to clear out any residue. If the unit will not be used for an extended period, store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, as UV rays can degrade the plastic over time. Periodically check the handle filter for debris buildup to ensure the spray stream remains consistent.
