DAKEN SPRAYERS
STORAGE
Prepare the sprayer for end-of-season storage by running RV antifreeze through the system. This will keep internal parts
lubricated, protect against corrosion, and keep the unit from freezing.
The sprayer will be damaged if it freezes.
Protect the sprayer from freezing during storage by following the instructions below.

Turn on the pump motor and squeeze the gun trigger briefly until fluid sprays. Store gun in lance clips. If
equipped, store broadcast lance in stored position to prevent damage.
REMOVING FROM STORAGE

Drain
Drain the antifreeze left in the tank through the tank drain hole into a suitable container.

Flush with water
