Operation – Using the Sprayer
5. Adjust
pressure
regulator
Turn pressure regulator knob to adjust outlet pressure
1. Turn knob clockwise to increase pressure.
2. Turn knob counter-clockwise to decrease pressure
Note: If the pressure regulator knob is completely tightened, the pressure setting
will be higher than the pressure switch on the pump. This allows the pump to
operate as a demand pump and turn on only when spraying.
6. Begin agitation
if needed
Some formulations of liquid pesticides do not remain in solution and should be
agitated to maintain a uniform mix.
The pressure regulator on this sprayer can be used as an agitator. If the pressure is
set below the pump’s pressure switch setting, the pump will continue to run even
when not spraying. Fluid will be diverted through the pressure regulator back to the
tank. This bypass fluid will keep the contents of the tank well-mixed, and allow the
sprayer to be used with pesticides classified as “flowable” (“F” or “L”), “wetable
powder” (“WP” or “W”), “emulsion” (“EC” or “I”), microencapsulated” (“M”), or
“water dispersible granules” (“WDG” or “DF”)
