Do not allow chemicals to sit in pump for extended times
of idleness. Some chemicals will damage the pump
valve if allowed to soak untreated for a length of time.
Always flush the pump with water after each use. Follow
the procedures in the AFTER EACH USE instructions
for flushing and disposal.

6. Drain all water out of the sprayer, paying special

attention to the pump and handgun. These items are
especially prone to damage from chemicals and freezing
weather.

7. The sprayer should be winterized before storage by

pumping a 50-50 solution of water and R. V. antifreeze
through the entire plumbing. Proper care and
maintenance will prolong the life of the sprayer.
