• Pay attention to the direction of the wind, do not work

against the wind.

• Never use the sprayer during windy conditions.
• Never point a sprayer nozzle toward an open flame to

avoid the possibility of igniting the unit, causing injury to
yourself or damage to surroundings. 

• Always release pressure in the pump prior to filling,

cleaning, or servicing the sprayer.

• Before opening a container of pesticide or other spray

material, carefully read, understand, and follow all
instructions on the label.

• Do not use flammable materials in the sprayer: they can

ignite and/or explode, causing serious injury. 

• Never use caustic or corrosive materials in the sprayer,

which could result in damage to the unit.

• In case of personal contamination: remove contaminated

clothing, remain upright, do not consume liquids or
cause vomiting, and get professional help immediately.

• Never attempt to pressurize the unit by any other method

than with the pump module provided. Never over-
pressurize the unit.

• Do not eat, drink, or smoke while spraying.
• Wash face and hands with soap and water after

spraying.

• Clean and rinse tank and spraying assembly after each

use to prevent crystallizing, which would later cause
clogging and chemical damage to the unit.

• Do not store sprayer under pressure, or with spray

solution in tank.

• Do not transfer spray materials to other containers,

especially, food and/or drink containers.

• Keep spray materials locked up and out of reach of

children and animals.

• Use only original manufacturer’s replacement parts.
• As a rule, mix your chemicals in a separate container

from which to fill the sprayer. Do not mix formulas inside
the sprayer. Where an exception is made (e.g. with liquid
fertilizers), fill sprayer with water BEFORE adding the
active ingredient.

• Always sift formula through the screen. If there is no

built-in strainer, use a screened funnel.

• Never fill the sprayer with hot liquids. Max. 30°C, or

85°F.

• Never use gasoline or other flammable materials.
• Before cleaning or servicing the sprayer, allow all

pressure to escape. Do not store or transport sprayer
under pressure.

• After each use, wash the sprayer—including hose, lance

and shut-off valve—with plenty of fresh water. Unless
spraying is to be continued within hours, drain chemical
formula and thoroughly rinse the tank and all liquid
ducts.

• Never store chemicals in your sprayer for any length of

time

• Do not leave the sprayer in reach of children or persons

not qualified to handle it in proper fashion.

• When not in use—and especially during prolonged

storage—keep your sprayer in a protected place away
from direct solar heat.

4. For safe operation

5. Wear sturdy rubber-soled shoes or shoes

with some other form of anti-slip protection to
help protect you against falling when filling,
using and/or cleaning the sprayer.

6. Do not wear loose clothing, scarves, neck

chains, hair longer than shoulder length, and
the like when filling, using and/or cleaning
the sprayer.

Check and follow the local regulations. 

WORKING PLAN

• When planning your work schedule, allow plenty of time to

rest. Limit the amount of time over which the product is to
be used continuously to somewhere around 30 ~ 40
minutes per session, and take 10 ~ 20 minutes of rest
between work sessions. Also try to keep the total amount of
work performed in a single day under 2 hours or less.

USING THE PRODUCT

Hose clamps are not completely tight.
Please tighten hose clamps prior to using.
Hose clamps are left loose to extend life of gaskets and
fittings.

Oil cap gasket before using and lubricate weekly so the
gasket will seal properly and prevent chemical leaks.

Oil check valve and maintain breather hole clear of
debris. Your failure to oil may can cause the tank to
collapse and crack due to vacuum created by pump
lubricate with "3 and 1" oil.

1. Always inspect your sprayer thoroughly before and after

each use. Check to be sure hose is securely attached and
in good condition before pressurizing the tank.

2. Check the work area that the sprayer will be

used in and remove or cover all valuables
that may be damaged by using sprayer.

3. To reduce the risk of injury,

• Watch out for children, pets, open

windows or freshly washed cars, and
spray safely away. 

• Do not allow bystanders in work area.
• Do not point the sprayer nozzle in the direction of people

or pets.
