Storage and
Maintenance Advice
After Use
• Release pressure from the sprayer unit before
refilling or replacing parts. This is done by
pressing the on/off trigger and letting out as
much air or liquid as possible through the
lance and nozzle assembly.
• After you have ensured the sprayer contains
no pressure, remove the container cap
A
and
empty any liquid left inside the container.
Note:
Even though the bottle may have no
liquid left inside, the actual pump chamber
may still contain residual fluid in it.
To empty the residual fluid, press and lock the
on/off trigger for continuous spraying, then
pump handle a few times and ensure that all
liquid and air is fully expelled.
• Refill the bottle with approximately 2 litres of
clean tap water, then with the on/off trigger
pressed and locked for continuous spraying,
pump handle and start expelling all the water
until empty.
• Make sure that the sprayer is not pressurised
and contains no liquid. Do not store in direct
sunlight and store out of reach of children.
Refer to detailed safety instructions
on page 3.
Important:
Ensure all caps are securely and
firmly tightened. After tightening, check that
hose and lances do not slip out.
Maintenance Advice
Over a period of time herbicides and
insecticides can leave a build up of residue
which normal cleaning will not remove.
This build up can collect around the seals
and inside the hoses and pump. If left, this
build up will eventually prevent the sprayer
from working.
To overcome this problem we recommend
that the sprayer bottle be half filled with hot
(not boiling) water from your domestic hot
water supply. By keeping the on/off trigger
pressed and locked for continuous spraying,
pump handle and start expelling all the water
until empty.
The hot water should dissolve the built up
residue and the sprayer will continue to operate
normally.
Important:
For safety, ensure you wear
protective clothing, goggles and gloves during
this operation.
Important:
If for some reason your sprayer
needs to be returned for warranty purposes,
PLEASE wash it out thoroughly to protect our
service technicians from exposure to unknown
substances.
