If you are using a downstream chemical injector, install
it between the pump unloader and the high pressure
hose, using the quick couplers provided.
Connect the high pressure hose between the pump
outlet and the gun inlet. Both of these connections are
made with quick couplers.

Up to 100 ft (30 m) of high pressure hose may
be used. Longer hoses may af
fect sprayer
performance, and chemical injector performance,
if used.
