SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
• Read owner’s manual completely before operating this sprayer.
• Always use goggles, gloves, and protective clothing when using sprayer.
• Read and follow all instructions and cautions on label of products used in this sprayer.
• Never use ammable liquids, caustics, acids, or hot water in this tank.
• Do not leave sprayer in the sun when not in use.
• Spray when air is calm to prevent drift of chemicals.
• Do not use sprayer near open ame or anything that could cause ignition of the spray.
• Always inspect hose and all hose connections before each use. A damaged hose, or loose hose
connection can result in unintended exposure to the pressurized chemical, resulting in serious injury or
property damage.
• Do not lift or carry sprayer by the hose, shut-o valve, or extension. Carry by pump handle only,
making sure handle is properly locked in place before lifting.
• Do not pressurize with any mechanical device such as an air compressor, since this can create a
dangerous pressure level and bursting of parts resulting in serious injury. Only use original pump.
• Do not store chemicals in this tank.
• Always release pressure when sprayer is not in use and before removing pump from tank.
• Do not stand with face or body over top of tank when pumping or loosening pump, to prevent pump or
solution from striking you, resulting in serious injury.
• Clean and rinse sprayer thoroughly after each use.
• Never attempt to alter sprayer from original condition.
• Always use replacement parts from original manufacturer.
• Keep the sprayer and all chemicals out of the reach of children.

injury and/or possible death. For safe use of this product, you must read and follow all instructions before
use.
TEST SPRAYERWITH WATER BEFORE USING ANY CHEMICALS.
