It is important to test the sprayer with plain water before attempting actual spraying. This will enable you to check the sprayer for leaks in the plumbing system.
1. Open tank lid and be sure the tank is clean and free of foreign material. Fill the tank about half full with plain water.
wARNING: Some chemicals will damage the pump valves if allowed to soak untreated for a length of time. Always flush the pump after use. Do not allow chemicals to sit in pump for extended times of idleness. Follow chemical manufacturers instructions on disposal of all waste water from the sprayer.
CAUTION
PRESSURE SWITCH OPERATION
Pressure switch is pre-set at the factory. Improper adjustment of the pressure switch, may cause severe overload or premature failure. If the pump is subjected to rapid cycling during normal operation, or infrequent periods, damage may occur.
AFTER SPRAYING
After use, fill the sprayer part way with water, start the sprayer and allow clear water to be pumped through the plumbing system and out through the handgun. Use the handgun to thoroughly wash all internal parts of tank and tank cover.
Refill the tank about half full with plain water and use a chemical neutralizer such as NUTRA-SOL or equivalent and repeat cleaning instructions above. Flush the entire sprayer with the neutralizing agent. Follow the chemical manufacturers disposal instructions of all wash and rinsing water.
WINTER STORAGE
Drain all water out of the sprayer paying special attention to pump, valves, and spray gun. These items are especially prone to damage from chemicals and freezing weather.
The sprayer should be winterized before storage by pumping a solution of RV anti-freeze through the entire plumbing. Proper care and maintenance will prolong the life of the sprayer.
