Abstract
A backpack type irrigation apparatus having a backpack frame, a pump attached to the frame, an internal combustion engine serving as a driving source for the pump, and a discharge hose connected to a discharge port of the pump. A throttle lever of the internal combustion engine may be attached to the backpack frame. With this arrangement, the pump and the engine can be moved together with the discharge hose, and also a suction hose can be moved. Accordingly, the water-supply range is enlarged. Also, the discharge amount can be adjusted by operating the throttle lever while driving the pump.
