Winter Storage

Drain all water out of your sprayer, paying special

attention to the pump, handgun, and valve(s). These items

are especially prone to damage from chemicals and

freezing weather.

The sprayer should be winterized before storage by

pumping a solution of RV antifreeze through the entire

plumbing system. This antifreeze solution should remain in

the plumbing system during the winter months. When

spring time comes and you are preparing your sprayer for

the spray season, rinse the entire plumbing system out,

clearing the lines of the antifreeze solution. Proper care

and maintenance will prolong the life of your sprayer.

After Spraying

After use, fill the sprayer tank part way with water. Start the

sprayer, and allow the clear water to be pumped through

the plumbing system and out through the spray nozzles.

Refill the tank about half full with plain water and use

FIMCO Tank Neutralizer and Cleaner, and repeat cleaning

instructions above.

Flush the entire sprayer with the neutralizing/cleaning

agent, then flush out one more time with plain water. Follow

the chemical manufacturer's disposal instructions of all

wash or rinsing water.

For the boom, (if applicable) remove the tips and screens

from the nozzle assemblies. Wash these items out

thoroughly. Blow the orifice clean and dry. If the orifice

remains clogged, clean it with a fine bristle (NOT WIRE)

brush, or with a toothpick. Do not damage the orifice. Water

rinse and dry the tips before storing.
WARNING: Some chemicals will damage the pump

valves if allowed to soak untreated for a length of time!

ALWAYS flush the pump as instructed after each use.
