Solo 408 Manual Garden Sprayer 5L – Handheld Pressure Sprayer for House & Garden

A Durable 5L Handheld Sprayer for House and Garden

The Solo 408 is a quality manual pressure sprayer built for house and garden jobs and made to handle tough Australian conditions. Its generous 5L tank and quality fittings make everyday yard maintenance quick and easy, whether you are protecting plants, spraying general treatments or tackling weeds. Solo is a long-established German sprayer brand known for well-built, hard-wearing equipment.

Built for Everyday Garden Jobs

This is an all-rounder for the home gardener. It suits plant protection, general-purpose spraying, backyard gardens, decorative plants and shrubs, and weed control, so one sprayer covers most of the spraying you would do around the house and yard. The compact, handheld design also makes it easy to use on balconies, patios and among potted plants where a larger unit would be awkward.

Pump, Pressurise and Spray

Like other manual sprayers, the 408 works by pumping the handle to build pressure inside the tank, which then delivers a steady spray through the wand and nozzle. The larger 5L capacity means fewer refills across a job, and the quality fittings help keep it sealing and spraying reliably over time.

How to Use

Fill the tank with your prepared spray solution, secure the top, then pump the handle to build up pressure. Aim the wand and press the trigger to spray, re-pumping as needed to keep the pressure up. Release the pressure and rinse the tank, wand and nozzle with clean water after each use, especially when switching between products such as fertilisers and weed treatments, to keep it working well and avoid cross-contamination.
