BEFORE SPRAYING

•  Inspect and prepare sprayer before each use as 

directed in this manual.

•  Do not start sprayer until ready to spray in order to 

avoid unintentional spray release.

•  Wear additional personal protective equipment 

if you will be spraying overhead. Wear 
chemical-resistant head and neck protection, 
full-face mask (or half-face mask with sealed 
goggles), and consider using a respirator.

•  Do not spray when wind speed exceeds 4 mph in 

order to minimize spray drift.

ADDING BRINE/LIQUID

 

Fill the tank to the desired level by 

fi

 lling through 

the tank lid. Use the markings on the tank for 
volume reference. During operation, if liquid is not 
coming out of the tank, check the Maintenance 
and Troubleshooting sections of this manual.

SPRAYER OPERATION

1.  Be sure that the pump switch is in the "OFF" position.

2.  Fill the sprayer with liquid through the port on the 

top of the tank.

3.  Select the desired application method by turning 

the valve handle to the appropriate position: 

•  OPEN for the spray boom
•  CLOSED for the spray wand

4.  When ready to spray, turn the pump switch to the 

"ON" position.

5.  If using the spray wand, point the wand in the 

desired direction and pull the trigger. Hold the 
trigger until spraying is concluded.

6.  When done spraying, be sure to turn the pump 

switch to the "OFF" position.

DURING SPRAYING

•  Do not eat, drink, smoke, rub your eyes, or touch your 

bare skin while handling chemicals and/or spraying.

•  Never point the spray wand at people or animals.

•  Always hold the spray wand 

fi

 rmly when using it to 

spray at higher pressures in order to prevent wand 
from whipping. Keep good footing and balance at all 
times. 

•  Do not spray near open 

fl

 ames or sources of heat.

•  Exercise extra caution when spraying near areas 

accessible to children and/or pets.

•  Clean up spills immediately per instructions on the 

chemical label.

•  Turn OFF vehicle and set brake or block wheels, 

turn sprayer OFF, and relieve system pressure 
before leaving sprayer unattended.

•  See Troubleshooting section of this manual before 

attempting any repairs. Wear personal protective 
equipment and follow safety instructions.
