absorption strainer at the bottom of the tank, and clean it.
Cleaning lever cock strainer (Fig. 9)
Remove lever cock cap and clean strainer.
NOTE:
Water absorption strainer
• This is a filter used to prevent dirt and dust (that for
some reason has got passed the tank strainer into the
tank) from getting into the pump. If the water absorption
strainer becomes blocked, spraying will deteriorate,
and there is a risk of the pump being adversely
affected.
Lever cock strainer
• Spraying deteriorates if the lever cock strainer
becomes blocked.
Sprayer storage
• Wash the equipment using the after-use maintenance
procedures.
• In particular, when storing during the winter season,
breakdown or damage may occur due to freezing of
residual chemical and/or washing water in the pump.
Run the pump until all residual liquid has exited from
the nozzle, check to make sure there is no more
residual liquid, turn the sprayer switch OFF, and then
store the sprayer away.
CAUTION:
Store the Sprayer out of reach of children, in an indoor
locale that does not freeze, is away from direct sunlight,
and has good ventilation.
- Take full care in storing the sprayer, as, in some cases,
the plastic components will deteriorate markedly if left
in direct sunlight for a prolonged period; moreover,
product caution labels will discolor and/or come off.
Useful Tips
Spray pipe holder
Be sure to attach the holder in the right direction. (Fig. 10)

attaching process, but care should be taken not to
bend the spray pipe.
Use the holder when taking a rest, replenishing chemical
liquid, and at times of storage, etc. (Fig. 11)
For Model BVF154 only (Fig. 12)

Makita replacement parts.
