Script:

The flow rate and spray pattern of adjustable nozzles are difficult to control and are becoming less popular with knapsack sprayer users. 

Adjustable nozzles have two main parts that are twisted to open or close the nozzle head. A solid stream of liquid can come out of the nozzle or adjusted to give a hollow cone pattern. 

Like hollow cone nozzles, typical uses are to project spray of insecticides and fungicides onto and into bushes and trees. However, any adjustment to these nozzle types after they have been calibrated will result in too much or too little pesticide being sprayed and the spray coverage may not be as good as when using a hollow cone nozzle.
