material being too viscous. It is recommended that chemicals being sprayed have a
viscosity of 100 or less. Viscosities of up to 160 can be sprayed if necessary.
However, this will cause some additional wear on the pump and valves as well as
exhaust the battery charge earlier.
if material is too cold, that can raise the product viscosity.
