Frequently asked questions
How do you pump a STIHL SG 71 backpack sprayer?
Use the side-mounted pump handle - move the lever up and down to build pressure in the tank, then spray evenly across your area.
How far can it spray?
A manual backpack sprayer like the SG 71 can reach up to about 4.5 metres. For best results spray with the wind at your back to reduce drift, especially with herbicides, pesticides or liquid fertilisers.
How does a manual backpack pressure sprayer work?
A backpack pressure sprayer uses a manual pump to build pressure inside the tank. Once pressurised, liquid is dispensed through the nozzle when you pull the trigger, for controlled, precise application.
What is the typical lifespan of a backpack sprayer?
It depends on build quality, frequency of use, chemical exposure and maintenance. With proper care and regular cleaning, a high-quality sprayer like the SG 71 can last 5 years or more.
Can I return it?
Yes - you have 30 days to return an unused mower, plus your statutory 14-day right to cancel. Get in touch and we'll arrange it.
