SERVICE AND MAINTENANCE
Visit www.hdhudson.com/FAQS
Clean and dry your sprayer after every use to greatly
prolong its useful service life. Many spray materials will
harden if left in the sprayer and plug up the nozzle,
shut-o
ff
valve or supply tube. The soft parts, O-rings
and gaskets, will ultimately wear out and need
replacing, just like the oil filter on your car, for example.
How often they need replacing depends on how much
you spray, the spray materials you use and whether
or not the sprayer is regularly cleaned after use. Call
1-800-9-SPRAYER or visit www.hdhudson.com to obtain
genuine Hudson® replacement parts.
If you leave your sprayer in the garage over Winter,
particularly in northern areas, the soft parts may dry out
and need servicing before you use your sprayer for the
first time in the Spring.

reached maximum pressure. Do not stand so
your head is over pump.

mist or a long-reaching stream.

FOR YOUR SAFETY
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 OR
BOILING LIQUIDS 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. Keep out of reach from children and pets.
Always read and follow directions on the spray material
container, including the need for protective clothing.
BEFORE USING YOUR SPRAYER, thoroughly INSPECT
both inside and outside of the sprayer and DO NOT
PRESSURIZE sprayer if tank, hose or other parts appear
to be damaged, discolored, brittle, excessively soft or
loose. 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 long-sleeved shirt, pants, gloves,
goggles or similar protective clothing when spraying.
