FILLING THE TANK
See Figures 5 - 6.
WARNING:
Before filling the tank, always remove the battery pack
and ensure the battery cover is closed. Wipe up any spills
before inserting the battery pack. Following this rule will
reduce the risk of electric shock and corrosive liquids
entering the battery pack, which can cause battery pack
failure including short circuit resulting in smoke, fire, and/
or serious personal injury.
WARNING:
Always follow the chemical manufacturer’s instructions
printed on their product labeling for use, cleaning, and
storage. Do not combine chemicals. Clean thoroughly
after each use, following the instructions in the
Mainte-
nance
section of this manual. Chemicals should be stored
out of the reach of children. Failure to do so may result
in serious personal injury.
WARNING:
Do not allow conductive or corrosive fluids to get inside
the battery pack. If conductive or corrosive fluids are
spilled on the battery, refer to the instructions in your
battery operators manual.
When adding spray solutions, you may add water and the
desired chemical solution directly into the tank, or use a
solution that has been premixed in a separate container,
then poured into the sprayer, using a funnel if needed. For
either method, remember:
Liquids used must be as thin as water. Thicker liquids will
not spray properly.
Do not overfill the tank.
NOTE:
If using a measuring container or funnel to fill the
tank, be sure to thoroughly clean and rinse these items after
use. If premixing the spraying solution, rinse the container
used for mixing.
To fill:
Remove the battery pack.
Unscrew the cap and remove it from the tank.
Fill the tank with the desired amount of liquid (up to
4 gallons).
NOTE: To ensure proper operation of the sprayer, do
not fill past the max fill line.
Screw the cap back onto the sprayer, making sure it is
tightened securely.
NOTE:
Wipe the outside of the tank with a dry cloth and
clean up any spills before inserting the tank.
Reinstall the battery pack.
NOTICE:
It is important to thoroughly clean the unit after each use.
Allowing liquid to remain in an idle tool for an extended
period may cause its moving pieces and connectors to
seize up.
