Installation 

 

 

FITTING TO A VEHICLE 
Position the sprayer on the vehicle so as to minimise chemical contamination to the operator.  Face the pump away from 
the operator to minimize the risk of contamination due to hose failure.   
 
The  sprayer  should  be  securely  attached  to  any  ATV  or  other  type  of  vehicle  that  it  is  installed  on.    The  transverse 
recesses moulded into the top of the tank can be used to positively locate tie down straps, which should be firmly secured 
to approved attachment points on the ATV or other vehicle.  

The sprayer should be mounted centrally and as near to the 
centre  of  gravity  of  an  ATV  as  possible.    It  should  not 
protrude  so  as  to  cause  an  obstruction.  Refer  to  the 

manufacturer’s instructions  for appropriate load limits and 

fitting positions. 
 
Never fill the spray tank to a capacity beyond the specified 
overall weight limit set by your vehicle manufacturer. 
Note :  1 litre of water = 1 kg. 
 

Warning  !   

Do  not  exceed  the  the  vehicle  manufacturer’s 

specified safe load and carrying capacity. 

 
CONNECTING TO 12 VOLT DC SUPPLY 
The sprayer requires a 12 volt DC  power source to operate 
the  pump,  such  as  the  vehicle  battery.    The  wiring  loom  is 
fitted  with  alligator  clamps  to  facilitate  connection  to  a 
normal vehicle battery  The red clamp should be connected 
to the positive terminal and the black clamp to the negative 
terminal. 

 
If you need to extend the wiring loom  use wire of the same 
gauge or thicker.  

 
SAFETY FUSE  
The  positive  (red)  lead  incorporates  a  10  amp  automotive 
type fuse in a rubberised holder. This protects the pump and 
vehicle electrical system from damage should a short circuit 
occur.  If  a  fuse  should  blow  determine  the  cause  of  the 
short circuit before replacing the fuse.

Negative (black) 

ON/OFF SWITCH 

The on/off switch mounted on the metal cover operates the pump. It should be switched off when the pump is not in use or 
when the tank is empty to prevent unnecessary drain of power and  overheating and damage to the pump.
