6. Pre-operation
Hose clamps are not completely tight.
Please tighten hose clamps prior to using.
Hose clamps are left loose to extend life of gaskets and
fittings.
Lubricate all moveable rubber pieces with Silicone
Grease (o-rings, seals, spindle in gun, piston cup
(when applicable). Keep breather hole in lid clear
of debris. Lubricating the seals and keeping the
breather hole open allows air into the tank. Without
airflow, the tank may collapse and crack due to a
vacuum created by the pump.
Before using,
lubricate lid o-ring
, pump washer, check
valve,
and keep breather hole clear of debris. Your failure to
lubricate
, clean check valve, and maintain breather hole open
to
allow air into the tank, can cause the tank to collapse and
crack, due to
the
vacuum created by pump.
1. Before you remove cap, be sure there is no pressure in the
tank. in order to release pressure, invert unit upside down
and squeeze spray pistol (aim away from you). Pressure will
escape; when hissing stops, all pressure has been
released. Remove pump assembly by turning
counter-clockwise. The pump handle has two locking
positions, one turning clockwise and one counter-clockwise.
2. Remove
lid
.
3. A unit that has been used with herbicides should never be
used to spray insecticides, unless the sprayer has been
properly cleaned and all other chemicals neutralized.
Failure to do this could cause you to kill plants that have
been sprayed. Consult with the manufacturer of the
chemicals in use to obtain proper instructions.
4. Always
lubricate
the
o-ring
on the
lid
of the unit, as well as
the
check valve. This will extend the life of the seal and is
important for obtaining a proper seal with no leaks.
5. Mix solution in a separate container, following the
manufacturers’ directions.
6. Pour pre-mixed solution through strainer into tank. Reinstall
lid
tightly.
7. Place sprayer on back and pressurize tank by pumping
approximately 5 to 15 times.
8. You will need to pump occasionally to maintain the desired
spraying pressure.
9. For best results, the sprayer should be pumped every five
seconds on a continuous basis. This will maintain your
spray
ing pressure. If you do not pump, you will not have
pressure to spray.
• Always release pressure in the pump prior to filling,
cleaning, or servicing the sprayer.
• Before opening a container of pesticide or other spray
mate
rial, carefully read, understand, and follow all
instructions on t
he label.
• Do not use flammable materials in the sprayer: they can
ignite and/or explode, causing serious injury.
• Never use
chloring/bleach,
caustic or corrosive materials
in the sprayer, w
hich could result in damage to the unit.
• To adjust nozzle, tighten cap (turn clockwise) for fine
atomi
zed spray, or loosen (turn counter-clockwise) for
coarser
spray or solid stream.
• For best results, the sprayer should be pumped every 5
seconds on a continuous basis. This will maintain your
spraying pressure. If you do not pump, you will not have
pressure to spray.
