NOZZLE_

SPRAY GUN TRIGGER

\

SPRAY GUN TRIGGER Turns the flow to the nozzle on or off.

BEFORE STARTING

It Is Important to test the boom and spray gun with plain water before attempting actual spraying. This will enable you to check the sprayer for leaks and to adjust the spray pattern. If a leak should occur, thread tape may be used to better seal the fitting.

HOW TO START YOUR SPRAYER

Once the sprayer is connected to a power source the pump will start whenever a pressure drop is caused by squeezing the spray gun trigger. A pressure switch on the pump turns the motor on when the system pressure drops below 35 psi.

HOW TO STOP YOUR SPRAYER

The pump will turn of whenever a pressure buildup to 35 psi is caused by releasing the spray gun trigger.

NOZZLE Adjusts the spray pattern from a fine mist to a straight stream.

USING YOUR SPRAYER

The spray gun has an adjustable nozzle which allows the spray pattern to be adjusted from a cone shaped fine mist to a straight stream.

Do not subject the pump to continuous rapid on and off cycling (one second intervals) for long periods of time. This occurs when the spray gun is adjusted for a very low rate of flow.

Disconnect the sprayer from the power source to conserve energy from the battery during periods of idleness. While the resting sprayer is connected, the pump will run periodically as the system pressure gradually drops below 35 psi.

Stay clear of flowers, shrubs and evergreen trees when spraying weed control solutions. Avoid contact of the solution with these sensitive plants.

and protective clothing when handling CAUTION: Wear eye protection, gloves and working with lawn chemicals.
