Product Manual

Removing hose and supply tube: Release pressure! Unscrew the cap nut (no tools required) and lift hose
and supply tube out.
If sprayer leaks at hose connection: Clean and tighten cap nut or replace the O-ring inside cap nut.
If you pump up the sprayer and nothing but air comes out of the nozzle:
The supply tube has become loose. Release pressure in tank. Remove the cap nut and hose, and re-insert
the supply tube into the hose and then reassemble to tank.
NOTE: The cap nut can be hand-tightened. No tools required.
7c. If you have a leak at hose connection or if nothing but air comes out of nozzle:
Make sure pressure is released BEFORE removing cap nut. Always make sure cap nut is securely tightened onto tank before pressurizing.
CAUTION!
If there is leak between nozzle and spray wand: Release pressure, unscrew nozzle and clean or replace O-ring on the end of the wand.
If nozzle becomes clogged: Release pressure, unscrew nozzle and clean nozzle orifice and ports at end of wand with a tooth pick or soft brush.
(DO NOT use wire as this may damage nozzle) Flush with water and replace.
TIP: If nozzle, shut-off valve, or other parts seem clogged, remove the hose and supply tube and while holding shut-off valve open, flush the
entire discharge line with water from your garden hose. If your sprayer continually clogs, dirt or debris may have gotten into the tank, if so,
empty the contents of the tank into a bucket and then clean the hose and discharge line. Put a piece of cheesecloth over the tank opening before
replacing the liquid in order to strain it when you pour the contents of the bucket back into the sprayer.
If there is a leak between shut-off control valve and wand, or if spray will not shut off:
Clean or replace O-rings on wand and shut-off valve.
If little or no spray is coming out of nozzle:
Brass Valve: Clean the valve ports with a toothpick and flush with water.
Poly Valve or Thrustless: Remove and clean out filter, if equipped, with water.
New filters can be purchased.
