MAINTERNANCE:
AFTER EACH USE; With the nozzle in the Straight Stream position, wipe clean the inside of the nozzle tip at
the discharge end and apply a thin coating of grease to the cleaned surface. We recommend "Dow Corning #7
Lubricant/Sealant". Move the nozzle tip through its entire range of motion several times to distribute the grease.
AS REQUIRED; Turn the nozzle tip clockwise until the nozzle is in the Straight Stream position and lubricate
the threads through the grease fitting on the nozzle tip. We recommend "Dow Corning #7 Lubricant/Sealant".
The nozzle does not require much grease, one quick shot should be sufficient. Be careful to avoid over greasing
the nozzle through the grease fitting. With the nozzle in the Straight Stream position, wipe clean the inside of
the nozzle tip at the discharge end and apply a thin coating of grease to the cleaned surface. Rotate the nozzle
tip to the Wide Fog position and apply a small amount of grease through the grease fitting again, avoid over
greasing the nozzle. Move the nozzle tip through its entire range of motion several times to distribute the
grease. Wipe off any excess grease. Storing the nozzle in the Wide Fog position will help protect the o-ring
surfaces from exposure to the elements and contaminants that may be attracted by the grease.
