in the trigger gun holder, or you may remove and
hold the trigger gun and the sprayer in separate hand
(Fig. 13).
3. Aim the sprayer nozzle directly at the plants or objects to
be sprayed.
NOTE: Make sure to stand far enough from the object
being sprayed to prevent the spray from splashing back
onto you.
4. Press the trigger to start spray.
5.
After using, release the trigger and turn off the unit.
Remove the battery from the battery compartment.
6. Thoroughly wash your hands and any area where skin has
been exposed to the spray. Drain and clean the cordless
sprayer as directed in the Maintenance section.
Operating Tips
• Never point the nozzle tip at yourself or others.
• Avoid spraying on windy days. Spray can be accidentally
blown onto plants or objects that should not be sprayed.
• Never spray in the direction of people or animals; always
spray downwind.
• Especially in warmer weather, spray in the early morning
or late afternoon. Excessive heat can evaporate the spray
before it settles.
• Never smoke, eat, or drink while operating the sprayer.
