THEORY OF OPERATION 

 
Spray fluid is prepared and placed in the tank via the lid opening and strainer basket. Foreign matter is trapped 
in the strainer mesh for disposal after the tank has been filled. 
 
When the pump is switched on power is applied to the pump motor from the vehicle electrical system. When the 
pump operates, fluid is drawn through the filtered valves at the base of each leg of the tank and into the pump 
head via hoses inside the tank. 
 
When one leg of the tank is empty the valve at the base of that leg will close. This will prevent air from being 
drawn into the system and allow evacuation of fluid from the opposite leg. When both legs are empty, both 
valves will close. With both valves closed, a vacuum is created within the system that retains the valves in the 
closed position. When the tank is refilled the vacuum is released by momentarily manually opening and closing 
a valve located at the top of the tank. The tank valves will reset to the open position and allow fluid to be drawn 
from the tank. 
 
 

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS 

 

Before switching on the pump, momentarily open and close the knob on the vacuum release valve located on 
top of the tank next to the lid. This will allow the suction valves to reset to open. This operation will need to be 
repeated each time the tank is re-filled from empty. 

 

Switch on the pump switch mounted on the handle bar of the ATV. The pump will run for a short time then shut 
off. 
 
Operate the spray gun trigger. Fluid will be sprayed from the adjustable spray tip and the pump will operate. If 
necessary adjust the spray tip to alter the spray pattern. 

 

 

NOTE 

If fluid does not flow when the pump is running and the spray gun trigger is operated, switch the pump off and 

open the knob on the vacuum release valve for five seconds, then close.
