Use larger diameter hose and/or reduce overall

 

materials

length of hose. Use of more than 100 ft of 1/4

 

 

in. hose significantly reduces performance of

 

 

sprayer. Use 3/8 in. hose for optimum perfor-

 

 

mance (50 ft minimum).

Check all hose connections and tighten as

 

 

needed.

 

 

Reduce engine speed and cycle pump as

 

 

slowly as possible during priming.
