This sprayer operates with liquid under pressure. Failure to observe CAUTIONS and follow instructions for use and maintenance can cause tank, hose or other parts to
become corroded, weakened and/or burst. This can result in SERIOUS INJURY or PROPERTY DAMAGE from forcible ejection of parts or high pressure discharge of spray material.
DO NOT USE ANY FLAMMABLES IN THIS SPRAYER
as it is not designed nor intended for such use. Some spray materials can ignite or explode. Do not spray in an
enclosed space, near an open flame such as found in a BBQ grill or water heater, near an electric motor or open switch, or any source of heat. DO NOT SMOKE while spraying.
Use of flammables could result in SERIOUS INJURY or PROPERTY DAMAGE from unintended ignition or explosion.
DO NOT USE ANY CAUSTICS OR ACIDS IN THIS SPRAYER,
since these can damage or weaken the sprayer and its parts, resulting in SERIOUS INJURY or PROPERTY
DAMAGE from unintended discharge.
• Before using any pesticide or any other spray material in your sprayer, READ THE LABEL ON THE SPRAY MATERIAL CONTAINER AND FOLLOW EXACTLY ITS INSTRUCTIONS
FOR MIXING AND USE INCLUDING THE NEED FOR PROTECTIVE CLOTHING. Some spray materials are dangerous and should not be used in this sprayer as they can damage
the sprayer or its parts, or may be harmful to the user. This could result in SERIOUS BODILY INJURY or PROPERTY DAMAGE.
• BEFORE USING YOUR SPRAYER, thoroughly INSPECT both inside and outside of sprayer. Be sure the hose is securely attached to the tank and on/off valve, and that the spray
wand and nozzle are all attached and not damaged. A loosely connected hose, on/off valve, spray wand or nozzle can come off when sprayer is under pressure and cause
SERIOUS INJURY or PROPERTY DAMAGE.
• DO NOT PRESSURIZE sprayer if tank, hose or other parts appear to be damaged, discolored, brittle, excessively soft or loose.
• DO NOT PUMP or use sprayer with head or body over pump as pressure in sprayer can forcibly eject pump if it is not properly locked in place, and this can cause SERIOUS
INJURY by striking the user.
• DO NOT use hot or boiling liquids in sprayer since this may weaken or damage tank, pump or hose.
• DO NOT PRESSURIZE WITH ANY MECHANICAL DEVICE such as an air compressor, since this can create dangerous pressure and bursting of parts and result in SERIOUS
INJURY.
• Wear a long-sleeved shirt, pants, gloves, goggles or similar protective clothing when spraying.
• Do not leave residue or spray material in sprayer after use. It may harden and clog the sprayer or its parts.
• Empty, clean and drain sprayer tank and hose after each use according to directions.
• Do not smoke or eat while mixing spray materials or spraying, and wash up afterwards.
• Use only Hudson replacement parts when servicing your sprayer. Other parts may not fit properly or may be weakened by spray materials and fail under pressure, resulting in
SERIOUS INJURY from forcible ejection of parts or unexpected high pressure discharge of spray material.

WARNING:
Keep sprayer and all spray materials away from children and pets.
