~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~IMPORTANT~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 

Remove tank lid and be sure the tank is clean and free of any foreign material. Rinse tank out of any tank residue before filling with 
water to test.

 

 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~IMPORTANT~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 

It is VERY important to test this sprayer with plain water before actual spraying is attempted. This will enable you to check the 
sprayer for leaks without the possibility of losing any expensive chemicals.

 

 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~WARNING~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 

Read and Understand 

the Owner

s Manual before using this sprayer. Test and use in accordance to instructions.

 

Read and Follow

 chemical label instructions and wear

 

protective gear when filling, using, cleaning and 

 

servicing the sprayer.

 

 

Exercise Caution 

in vehicle handling when towing/hauling a filled sprayer to avoid loss of control or overturning.

 

Keep Sprayer and Spray materials 

away from other people, children and pets.

 

Do Not Turn on Power 

to the sprayer, until ready to spray in order to avoid unintentional spray release.

 

Do Not Use 

on steep slopes. A full sprayer could cause loss of control or overturn sprayer and vehicle.

 

Always operate 

up and down a slope, never across the face of a slope.

 

Keep all movement on slopes 

slow and gradual. Do not make sudden changes in speed, directions or turning. Do not start or stop 

suddenly when going uphill or downhill.

 

Stop on level ground, 

set the parking brake and shut off engine before leaving the operator

s position for any reason.

 

Keep all parts 

in good condition and properly installed. Fix damaged or warn parts immediately.

 

Caution should be taken 

when towing and/or using any sprayer. This sprayer combined with the weight distribution, turning radius 

and speed of vehicle can result in damage to vehicle and/or sprayer or severe injury or death, if not used properly.

 

Improper use of this sprayer or handling of chemicals could result in serious injury or illness, or could cause damage to the envi-
ronment.

 

 

Assembly Instructions

 

The sprayer is mostly assembled at the factory.

 

 

• 

Follow the steps on page 3 to properly complete assembly of the sprayer.

 

• 

Make sure all hose clamps are tight before testing or spraying  for the first time.

 

• 

One requirement will be to hook up your battery leads to a fully charged 12 Volt battery.
