SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING
Read and understand all instructions. Failure to follow all instructions listed below, may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious personal injury.
11
• Before Using The Battery Pack & Charger: Read this operator’s manual and all labels on the battery pack.
• Caution: To reduce risk of injury, ONLY CHARGE REVOLT BATTERY PACK WITH REVOLT SERIES
CHARGERS. Other types of batteries may burst causing personal injury and damage. Do not wire a battery pack to a power supply plug or the DC outlet of a vehicle. Batteries will be permanently disabled or damaged.
• Avoid Dangerous Environments: Do not charge battery pack in rain, snow, damp or wet locations. Do not use battery pack or charger in the presence of explosive atmosphere (gaseous fumes, dust or flammable materials) because sparks may be generated when inserting or removing battery pack, possibly causing a fire.
• Charge In A Well Ventilated Area: Do not allow smoking or open flames near charging battery pack. Vented gases may explode.
• Do Not Burn Or Incinerate Battery Packs: Battery packs may explode, causing personal injury or damage. Toxic fumes and materials are created when battery pack burns.
• Do Not Crush, Drop or Damage: Do not use a battery pack or charger that has received a sharp blow, been dropped, run over, or damaged in any way.
• Do Not Disassemble: Incorrect reassembly may result in the risk of electric shock, fire or exposure to battery chemicals.
• Battery Chemicals Cause Serious Burns: Never allow contact with skin, eyes or mouth. If a damaged battery pack leaks battery chemicals, use rubber or neoprene gloves to dispose of it.
If skin is exposed to battery fluids, wash with soap and water, and rinse with vinegar. If eyes are exposed to battery chemicals, immediately flush with water for 20 minutes and seek medical attention. Remove and dispose of contaminated clothing.
• Do Not Short Circuit: A short circuited battery pack may cause a fire, personal injury, and product damage. A batter pack will short circuit if a metal object makes a connection between the positive and negative contact on a battery pack. Do not place a battery pack near anything that may cause a short circuit such as coins, keys or nails in your pocket.
• Disposing of Revolt Battery Packs: Lithium-Ion Batteries need to be disposed of according to federal, state and local regulations. Contact a recycling agency in your area for recycling locations.
Even discharged battery packs contain some energy. Before disposing, use electrical tape to cover the terminals to prevent the battery pack from shorting, which could cause a fire or explosion.

WATER OR OTHER CONSUMABLE LIQUIDS.
800.825.5397
PREPARING SPRAYER
• Review Safety Information: Review safety information in this manual and manufacturer chemical label before use.
• Sprayer Attachment: Ensure the sprayer is securely attached to a vehicle if using trailer hitch for spraying.
• Empty Tank: Ensure the sprayer has been thoroughly flushed and drained of all residual chemical prior to uses.
• Inspect & Test: Inspect the tank and components for any cracks or leaks. Replace any damaged parts. IMPORTANT: After any repair, ALWAYS test for leaks with water one final time before use.
• Check Drain Cap: Before filling tank, ensure drain cap at bottom of tank is securely tightened.
15
USING SPRAYER
• Protective Equipment: ALWAYS wear protective equipment as directed on the chemical label.
• Assess Wind & Area Conditions: Before spraying, determine if wind conditions are suitable. DO NOT spray if wind speeds are greater than 4
MPH. DO NOT spray if bystanders are in the intended area and verify that area is in a well-ventilated outdoor area.
• Power Off: Before filling tank, make sure power to the sprayer and the vehicle is off and brakes are set to prevent unintended movement.
• Filling Tank: Remove sprayer tank lid and add chemical/water dilatation ratios that are called out by chemical label. Ensure chemical is thoroughly mixed with a stirring device and then securely thread tank lid back on sprayer tank.
16

WARNING
Clean-up and decontamination procedures must be followed after each use.
Improper equipment clean-up and disposal of chemicals can result in dangerous chemical exposure to humans and the environment, as well as equipment damage.
Personal decontamination is required after spraying to minimize unsafe exposure to chemicals and potential illness.
CLEANING & DECONTAMINATING SPRAYER
• Drain Tank: If there is excess pesticide left in tank, drain into a suitable container.
Note: when draining pesticides, be sure to wear protective gear such as rubber gloves and eye protection for increased safety.

SPRAYER STORAGE
Prepare the sprayer for end-of-season storage by running RV anti-freeze through the system. This will keep internal parts lubricated, protect against corrosion, and keep the unit from freezing.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
ALLOWING YOUR SPRAYER TO FREEZE, WITHOUT TAKING
PROPER WINTERIZATION STEPS, VOIDS YOUR WARRANTY.
WARNING
The sprayer will be damaged if it freezes.
Protect the sprayer from freezing during storage by following instructions below.
PREPARING SPRAYER FOR STORAGE
• Add RV Anti-Freeze: Pour one gallon of RV anti-freeze into the sprayer tank.
• Spray Briefly: Turn on the pump motor and squeeze the gun trigger briefly until fluid sprays out.
REMOVING SPRAYER FROM STORAGE
• Drain RV Anti-Freeze: Drain the RV anti-freeze that is left in the tank through the tank drain port into a suitable container.
• Flush with Water: Fill tank with fresh water and have it run through system.
Operate spray gun and boom until the system is completely flushed. Be sure to set up containers to capture the flushing of the RV anti-freeze.
