STORAGE
STORAGE RECOMMENDATIONS
Drain all water out of the sprayer, paying special
at ten tion to the pump and handgun. These items
are es pe cial ly prone to damage from chemicals and
freez ing weather.
The sprayer should be winterized before storage by
pump ing a 50-50 solution of water and R. V. an ti freeze
through the entire plumbing. Proper care and
main te nance will prolong the life of the sprayer.
IMPORTANT:
Do not
allow chem i cals to sit in pump for
extended times of idleness. Some chemicals will damage
the pump valve if allowed to soak un treat ed for a length
of time. Al ways fl ush the pump with water after each use.
Follow the procedures in the Maintenance section for
ushing and disposal.
CHECK FOR LOOSE FASTENERS
Before each use make a thorough visual check of
the sprayer for any bolts and nuts which may have
loosened. Retighten any loose bolts and nuts.
FLUSH THE TANK
Remove any solution left in tank. Fill the sprayer part
way with water, start the sprayer and allow clear water
to be pumped through the plumbing system and out
through the boom assembly and the handgun. Use
the hand gun to thoroughly wash all internal parts of
the tank, the outside of the tank and the boom.
Refi ll the tank about half full with plain water and
a chemical neutralizer and repeat the cleaning
in struc tions above. Flush the entire sprayer with the
neu tral iz ing agent. Follow the chemical man u fac tur ers
instructions for disposal of all wash or rinsing water.
