Operating Instructions
Important:
Rinse the inside of the bottle with
cold water before use. Before using with any
chemicals it is advisable to familiarise yourself
with the sprayer by trialing it first with water
only. Thick mixtures can clog the spray
nozzle. Mixtures of this kind should be
strained to prevent blockages. Wash the
bottle, attachments and your hands
thoroughly after use.
Before Use
• Remove the internal pump assembly by
unscrewing the container cap. Fill liquid
to the required level.
Do not exceed the
“MAXIMUM FILLING” level.
• Insert internal pump assembly and tighten
container cap firmly by hand.
• Make sure the safety valve and hose retainer
cap are tight to prevent air escaping.
• Firmly screw the lance assembly to the
trigger handle.
Operation
• Pump the sprayer until the safety valve starts
to open and vent. Your sprayer is designed
to operate at 40 P.S.I. (275 kpa). You will
notice that when the sprayer is at full
pressure the safety valve will lift and a red
indicator becomes visible.
• Pump periodically to maintain constant
spraying pressure.
• Lock pump handle into container cap. This
allows you to carry the sprayer. You can also
use the strap supplied.
• Start spraying by pressing the on/off trigger.
The trigger is equipped with a lock for
continuous spraying. To lock, press the
trigger and slide the trigger lock forward.
To unlock, slide the trigger lock back and
release the on/off trigger.
• Choose the type of nozzle according to your
spraying application. Turn the nozzle
to obtain the desired spray pattern.
