When planning your work schedule, allow

plenty of time to rest. Limit the amount of

time over which the product is to be used

continuously to somewhere around 30 ~ 40

minutes per session, and take 10 ~ 20

minutes of rest between work sessions.

Also try to keep the total amount of work

performed in a single day under 2 hours or

less.

Hose clamps are not completely tight.

Please tighten hose clamps prior to using.

Hose clamps are left loose to extend life of

gaskets and fittings.

Oil cap gasket before using and lubricate

weekly so the gasket will seal properly

and prevent chemical leaks.

Oil check valve and keep breather

hole clear of debris. Your failure to oil may

cause the tank to collapse and crack

due to vacuum created by pump lubricate

with “3 and 1” oil.

1. Always inspect your sprayer thoroughly
