Important Charging Notes

The charger and battery pack may become warm to
the touch while charging. This is normal and does
not indicate a problem. To facilitate the cooling of the
battery pack after use, avoid placing the charger or
battery pack in a warm environment such as in a metal
shed or an uninsulated trailer.
If the battery pack does not charge properly:

• Check operation of the receptacle by plugging in a

lamp or other appliance.

• Check to see if the receptacle is connected to a light

switch which turns power OFF when you turn off
the lights.

• If charging problems persist, replace battery or

charger. See

Filling the Sprayer

DANGER:

RISK OF DEATH, SEVERE PERSONAL INJURY,

AND/OR PROPERTY DAMAGE FROM IMPROPER
CHEMICAL USE OR MIXTURE.

• Never use flammable or combustible chemicals in

this sprayer. Spraying flammable or combustible
chemicals can create combustible fumes that could
be ignited, causing an explosion.

• Use only chemicals indicated for spraying

applications. Some chemicals may create a toxic or
other hazardous atmosphere when sprayed.

• Always refer to chemical manufacturer’s instructions

and/or the chemical Safety Data Sheet (SDS) for
proper mixture and safe application.

WARNING:

Inspect the sprayer, hose, shut-off, wand,

and all connections for damage before each use.
A damaged or loose hose connection can result in
unintended exposure to the pressurized chemicals,
resulting in serious injury or property damage.

Before you Begin

Test the sprayer with plain water before use with
chemicals, prior to initial use, and after prolonged
storage.
Place the sprayer on a stable surface and ensure it is
OFF.
