WARNING: Improper use or failure to follow instructions can result in explosive failure causing
serious eye or other injury. For safe use of this product you must read and follow all instructions. Do not
leave a pressurized sprayer in the hot sun. Heat can cause pressure build-up resulting in possible explosion.

the original pump. Do not attempt to modify this sprayer. Replace parts only with manufacturer's original

3. Filter
The filter helps prevent clogging while spraying. It is located on the end
of the outlet tube inside your sprayer tank. To clean filter, remove the dis-
charge assembly from the tank (Fig. 3A). Make sure the filter is positioned
at the bottom of the tank as pictured.
4. Pre-Use Check
1) Do: Check tightness of hose nut to be sure hose is securely attached to the tank outlet.
2) Do: Inspect hose for deterioration, cracks, softness, or brittleness. If any of these conditions are found,
replace hose before using. Replace with original manufacturer's parts only.
3) Do: Remove pump (see Filling, Pressurizing and Spraying Instructions), inspect interior and exterior
of tank for signs of deterioration of body and bottom. Any sign of deterioration indicates possible tank
weakening and could result in explosive bursting under pressure. If any of these signs are found, discard
tank immediately and replace. Do not attempt to patch leaks, etc., as this could result in serious injury.
4) Do: Follow Filling, Pressurizing and Spraying Instructions, except use water only (Pump plunger 10-20
strokes and inspect for leaks).
5) Do: Direct shut-off away from you and open to make sure discharge is not clogged.
6) Do: If unit passes this test, release pressure (see Pressure Releasing Instructions), empty tank, and proceed
with Filling, Pressurizing and Spraying Instructions.
7) Do: Inspect all metal parts including the wand, nozzle and fittings for rust, corrosion and pitting. If any
of these conditions are found, replace affected part with original manufacturer's part before using.
5. Filling
1) Do: Turn pump handle counterclockwise and remove pump
2) Do: Prepare spray solution following all directions and safety warnings on chemical label.
6-1925
3) Do: Fill tank to no more than the proper gallon marker. Do NOT: overfill to accommodate pump.
