OPERATION
Fig. 10
OPERATING THE SPRAYER
 Thoroughly inspect both the inside and outside of the
sprayer before each use.
 Never point the spray end of the wand at yourself or
others.
 Avoid spraying on windy days. Spray can be acciden-
tally blown onto plants or objects that should not be
sprayed.
 Never spray in the direction of people or animals; always
spray downwind.
 Especially in warmer weather, spray in the early morning
or late afternoon. Excessive heat can evaporate the spray
before it settles.
 Never smoke, eat, or drink while operating the sprayer.
ADJUSTING THE SPRAY NOZZLE
See Figure 9.
The spray nozzle can be adjusted from a stream to a fan
spray.

Loosen the nozzle for a stream.
 Tighten the nozzle for a fan spray.
SPRAYING
See Figure 10.
The wand handle should be resting in the cradle before starting
the sprayer. Hold the sprayer securely when starting.

Depress the ON/OFF button to start the motor.
 The sprayer may be operated with the wand handle resting
in the cradle, or you may remove and hold the wand
handle as shown.
 Aim the sprayer nozzle directly at the plants or objects
you wish to spray.
NOTE: Make sure to stand far enough from the object
being sprayed to prevent the spray from splashing back
onto you.
 Depress the trigger to start the spray.
 Release the trigger to stop the spray.
 Always empty, clean, and drain the tank after every use
as directed in the Maintenance section.
 When you are finished with the sprayer, thoroughly wash
your hands and any area where skin has been exposed
to the spray.
