OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS
1.
Prepare (mix) the solution according to relevant
safety and usage guidance. The solution must be
filtered before using to avoid nozzle blockage. Use
distilled water only.
2.
Pour solution into the tank, tighten the tank cap.
3.
Wipe sprayer housing and wand clean and dry.
4.
Carry the sprayer on the back, adjust shoulder
straps so it fits comfortably.
5.
Press on the power switch button to turn the sprayer
on.
6.
Press down the valve release lever on the wand and
begin spraying. For best results, spray a wide
general area, while keeping nozzle tip within 3-4
feet above the targeted surfaces, allowing the
charged mist to slowly fall and be attracted to and
pulled to all sides and surfaces.
Note:
One can lock the lever down with the locking
piece, for easy long duration spraying.
7.
Once spraying is finished, release the lever, then
turn off the power.
Note:
Due to residual pressure and solution inside
the wand, it will keep spraying for 5-10 seconds
once lever is released. Please take this delay into
consideration when deciding to stop spraying.
8.
Make sure power is off before putting sprayer on the
ground.
MAINTENANCE AND TROUBLE-SHOOTING TIPS
•
Water seal is reached by O-rings in all joints,
between poles and wand, and between brass
nozzle and plastic fittings, not by press fit. Do not
over-tight when assembling them, to avoid damage
to O-rings and to the plastic threads and parts.
•
After each usage, please clean the tank and the
spray system with soft water. Carry the sprayer on
the back and run sprayer for a few minutes, before
turning off power.
•
Wipe dry and store the sprayer indoors.
•
Never immerse the unit in water, to avoid damage to
the motor, battery, and electronics inside.
•
Charge the battery promptly when the low-battery
alarm beeps.
•
When the sprayer is in long periods of storage,
please charge the battery at least once a month to
ensure battery life and performance.
•
Disconnect charger once battery is fully charged
after 6-10 hours. Do not keep the sprayer plugged
to the charger all the time.

IF RECEIVING A SHOCK DURING USE
It is possible to receive inadvertent electrostatic shocks
during use. Usually this is a result of the fogging mist
collecting on the wand and creating a current path from
the user’s hand to the tip. To avoid this, spray out and
away, and not above whenever possible. You can turn of
the unit and wipe dry with a rag when/if needed.
The other possible cause of this is loose fittings. Even
though a fitting might not leak, some liquid could be
working its way up the threads, thus coming into near
proximity of the user’s hand. To solve this, turn off the
sprayer, disassembly all the fittings that make up the
wand assembly, especially the hose and poles going into
the wand handle. Dry by rag and even air dry before
re-assembling. Make strong finger tight connections, but
don’t over tighten.
