Storage
27
When not in use, store the sprayer indoors. For long term or winter storage, prepare the sprayer by running
RV antifreeze (DO NOT USE automotive antifreeze) through the system. This will keep internal parts
lubricated, protect against corrosion, and keep the unit from freezing.
CAUTION
• The pump will be damaged if it freezes.
• Protect the pump from freezing during storage by following the instructions
below.
Preparing for storage:
1. Flush with
water
Fill the tank with fresh water and run through the system. Operate the spray gun until
the system is completely flushed.
DO NOT add antifreeze before flushing the system as bleach can react with
antifreeze.
2. Add antifreeze
Pour 1 gallon of RV antifreeze (DO NOT USE automotive antifreeze) into the tank.
Note: RV antifreeze is non-toxic and biodegradable and generally safer for the
environment than automotive antifreeze.
3. Spray briefly
Turn on the pump motor and squeeze the gun trigger briefly until fluid sprays. Store gun
in lance clips. If equipped, store broadcast lance in stored position to prevent damage.
Removing from storage:
1. Drain
Drain the antifreeze left in the tank through the tank drain hole into a suitable
container.
2. Flush with
water
Fill the tank with fresh water and run through the system. Operate the spray gun until
the system is completely flushed. Be sure to set up containers to capture the antifreeze
flush water.
DO NOT add bleach back into the sprayer before flushing the system as bleach
can react with antifreeze
3. Disposal
Dispose of the antifreeze and flush water properly.
