After Spraying
After use, fill the sprayer tank part way with water. Start the sprayer, and allow the clear water to be pumped through the plumbing
system and out through the spray nozzles.
Refill the tank about half full with plain water and use FIMCO Tank Neutralizer and Cleaner, and repeat cleaning instructions above.
Flush the entire sprayer with the neutralizing/cleaning agent, then flush out one more time with plain water. Follow the chemical
manufacturer's disposal instructions of all wash or rinsing water.
For the boom, (if applicable) remove the tips and screens from the nozzle assemblies. Wash these items out thoroughly. Blow the
orifice clean and dry. If the orifice remains clogged, clean it with a fine bristle (NOT WIRE) brush, or with a toothpick. Do not damage
the orifice. Water rinse and dry the tips before storing.
WARNING: Some chemicals will damage the pump valves if allowed to soak untreated for a length of time! ALWAYS flush the
pump as instructed after each use.
NOTE:
It is VERY important for you to test your sprayer with plain water before actual spraying is attempted. This will enable you to
check the sprayer for leaks, without the possibility of losing any expensive chemicals.
Conditions of weather and terrain must be considered when setting the sprayer. Do not spray on windy days. Protective clothing must
be worn in some cases.
Be sure to read the chemical label(s) correctly!
Testing the Sprayer
Winter Storage
Drain all water out of your sprayer, paying special attention to the pump, handgun, and valve(s). These items are especially prone to
damage from chemicals and freezing weather.
The sprayer should be winterized before storage by pumping a solution of RV antifreeze through the entire plumbing system. This
antifreeze solution should remain in the plumbing system during the winter months. When spring time comes and you are preparing
your sprayer for the spray season, rinse the entire plumbing system out, clearing the lines of the antifreeze solution. Proper care and
maintenance will prolong the life of your sprayer.
