Comparison

How It Compares With the Alternatives

4x2 water tanker with 10,000 L tank	Lower cost and better turning radius but carries half the water and requires more frequent refills
Light-duty water hauler with 12,000 L tank	Easier to drive in urban areas but lacks the load capacity and durability for long hauls on unpaved roads
Water tanker with only rear spray	Limited to road cleaning but cannot reach high trees or provide front flush cleaning

Operating Notes

Use Guide

Confirm the tank material (carbon steel or stainless steel) based on water quality and storage duration before ordering
Fill the tank only through the manhole or pump inlet; keep the air breather valve clear
Use the front nozzle for road cleaning and the high cannon for tree watering, both with 15 metre reach
Engage the pump only after the tank is full to prevent dry running
Drain the tank and flush the system after use in freezing conditions to prevent damage
Free operator training is available at the factory before shipment
