INSTALLING THE SHOULDER STRAP
The top of the shoulder straps are attached to the tank. Attach the lower
end of the straps by clipping the strap hooks to the metal frame between
where the frame exits the tank and curves around.
In the event that the sprayer harness (straps) become contaminated with
chemicals, it is recommended to thoroughly wash the straps with soap &
water and allow to dry before using the sprayer.

This backpack sprayer is equipped with a 3 stage filtering system (see figure
1). Stage 1 is a filter basket incorporated into the tank opening where fluid is
added. Stage 2 filter is located at the inlet of the pressure cylinder. Stage 2
is a removable In-Tank filter. Stage 3 is a removable filter incorporated into
the shut-off assembly. Periodic cleaning of these filters is recommended to
ensure consistent fluid flow through the sprayer. This will also reduce sprayer
component wear.
The stage 3 filter is a removable filter incorporated into the inlet side of the
shut-off valve (see section “disassembling and repairing the shut-off valve”) .
Make sure pressure is released before detaching the hose from the shut-off.
It is best to have no or minimal fluid in the pressure cylinder before removing
and reinstalling the stage 3 shut-off filter as fluid can leak from the hose.
