1.) Battery Clamps. Use the battery clamps to connect the battery power cord to the battery.
2.) Battery Power Cord. The battery power cord connects the vehicle battery to the remote switch. This
cord remains connected to the battery when the sprayer is not in use.
3.) Remote Switch. The remote switch allows the operator to safely turn ON/OFF the sprayer.
4.) Pump Power Cord. The pump power cord connects the remote switch to the pump.
5.) Gun Hose. The 420” gun hose transfers chemical from the pump to the spray gun.
6.) Sprayer Tank. The sprayer tank holds the chemical.
7.) Fill Cap. The fill cap has a ball check to allow air to enter the tank as the chemical is dispensed, but
does not allow chemical to escape the tank.
8.) Sprayer Pump. The sprayer pump makes the chemical flow to the spray gun and the nozzle.
9.) Pressure Gauge. The pressure gauge is an indicator of the pressure in the system.
10.) Pressure Adjustment Knob. Turn the pressure adjustment knob until the sprayer is running at the
desired pressure.
11.) Priming Hose. The priming hose transfers chemicals from the pump back to the tank while priming.
12.) Suction Tube. The suction tube is the inlet line for the pump. The suction tube has a suction strainer
to prevent debris from entering the pump.
13.) Priming Valve. The priming valve performs three functions. First, it allows the pump to prime itself
when open. Second, it helps keep the chemical well circulated when the valve is left open. Third, it will
relieve the system pressure by opening the valve.
14.) Bypass Hose. The bypass hose transfers liquid from the pump to the tank when the system is up to
pressure.
15.) Agitation Hose. The agitation hose combines the bypass and priming hose to send the liquid back to
the tank to keep the chemical mixed.
16.) Spray Gun. The spray gun has three spraying modes; stream, cone, fog (see operation instructions).
17.) Gun Clips. Use the gun clips to store the spray gun.
18.) Hose Wrap. The hose wrap is built into the tank, and provides a storage location for the gun hose.
