Safety Instructions
Caution:
Contents under pressure.
Read this before operating.
• Release pressure from the sprayer unit
before refilling or replacing parts. This is
done by pressing the on/off trigger and
letting out as much air or liquid as possible
through the lance and nozzle assembly.
Note:
some remaining air may be expelled.
Note:
Even though the bottle may have no
liquid left inside, the actual pump chamber
may still contain residual fluid in it.
To empty the residual fluid, press and lock
the on/off trigger for continuous spraying,
then pump handle for a few times and ensure
that all liquid and air is fully expelled before
unscrewing either the container or pump cap.
• Inspect the condition of all fittings before
each use. Do not attempt to use your
sprayer with worn or damaged parts.
These parts should be replaced.
• Safety valve operation: Over pumping will
cause the safety valve to open and release
excess pressure. It will close when safe
operating pressure is reached.
• Your sprayer is made from different types
of plastic materials, and although the liquid
you may wish to use is packed in a plastic
container, it is not guaranteed that it will
not damage your sprayer. Your sprayer
is designed for use with a broad range
of liquids, however you must check their
compatibility before use.
• Follow all chemical suppliers
on-pack instructions.
