HOW TO PRESSURIZE (PUMP UP) YOUR SPRAYER:
1. Unlock pump handle by pushing down and turning handle. Do not unscrew pump cap or
remove pump.
2. Using the handle, pump up and down. The more you pump, the more pressure you
will build up inside the tank. When it becomes difficult to pump, your tank has reached
maximum pressure.
NOTE: Use low pressure (fewer strokes) for a coarse spray. Use high pressure (more strokes)
for a fine mist or a long-reaching stream.
HOW TO SPRAY:
Steps to Spray:
1. Squeeze lever to spray.
2. Release lever to stop.
Steps to Adjust the Nozzle:
1. Tighten nozzle for fine mist.
2. Loosen nozzle for coarse or long range.
NOTE: If you tighten the nozzle all the way down, the spray may stop completely.
HOW TO RELEASE THE PRESSURE IN YOUR SPRAYER:
WARNING: Always release pressure before trying to service sprayer in any way or before
removing or disconnecting nozzle, spray wand, shut-off valve, hose
assembly or any other part!
1. Turn pressure relief valve counter clockwise and pull up to release pressure.
2. Slowly unscrew pump from tank and remove it. Keep head and body away from pump.
Important Tips and Information:
• The soft parts, o-rings and gaskets will ultimately wear out and need replacing, just like the oil
filter on your car. How often they need replacing depends on how much you spray, the spray
materials you use, and whether or not the sprayer is regularly cleaned after use.
• If you leave your sprayer in the garage over winter, particularly in the northern areas, the soft
parts may dry out and need servicing before you use your sprayer for the first time in the
spring. Lubricate soft parts with petroleum jelly before storing.
WARNING: Make sure all of the pressure in your sprayer is released before cleaning or
servicing your sprayer in any way or before removing any part of it!
MAINTAINING YOUR SPRAYER
NOTE: Clean your sprayer each time you finish using it to help keep it trouble free.
1. When finished with job, spray away all the material in your sprayer or empty it into the
original chemical container.
2. Remove pump and add some clean water and a few drops of liquid dish washing soap.
3. Replace pump and shake tank to mix soap and water.
4. Pressurize and spray out soapy solution.
5. Release any pressure remaining and remove pump.
6. Remove hose and supply tube by unscrewing connection at tank (No tools required).
7. Turn tank upside down and let dry.
8. Holding hose and spray wand up, open shut-off valve and let wand and hose drain.
TIP: Back-flush your wand, hose and supply tube with a garden hose for maximum cleansing.
