WeedErase Chemical Free Weed Killer - User Manual

Model: WE-WIRE

Brand: Viatek

Product Overview

The WeedErase Chemical Free Weed Killer is an innovative device designed to eliminate weeds from the root level using a concentrated blend of light. This environmentally friendly solution avoids the need for harsh chemicals, making it safe for surrounding plants and grass.

It utilizes a combination of ultraviolet (UV) and infrared (IR) light. The infrared light generates heat that disrupts the water supply to the weed's root, while the ultraviolet light penetrates the ground to interfere with root functions. This dual-action approach effectively destroys the root, root crown, and leaves within approximately 10 days.

Setup

Before using the WeedErase device, ensure you have access to a standard AC power outlet. The device operates by plugging directly into an electrical socket.

  1. Unpack the WeedErase device and its power cord from the packaging.
  2. Inspect the device and power cord for any visible damage. Do not use the device if any damage is observed.
  3. Plug the power cord into a grounded AC outlet. Ensure the connection is secure.
  4. The device is now ready for operation.

Operating Instructions

Follow these steps for effective and safe operation of your WeedErase device:

  1. Identify the specific weed you wish to eliminate.
  2. Carefully place the dome of the WeedErase device directly over the target weed, ensuring the weed is fully enclosed within the dome.
  3. Hold the device steady in this position for the specified duration. The exact time required may vary depending on the weed type and size, but typically a few minutes per weed is sufficient for the light to penetrate and begin its work.
  4. After the treatment time, lift the device from the weed. The weed may not show immediate signs of damage, but the light treatment will begin to affect its root system.
  5. Repeat the process for all desired weeds.

Important Safety Note: Always ensure the device's dome is placed directly over the target weed and away from surrounding desirable plants or grass. While designed to be safe, direct exposure to the concentrated light for extended periods on non-target vegetation could potentially cause damage.
