Application Safety and ATV Vehicle Handling Safety provided in this manual.
2. Wear personal
protective
equipment
Wear personal protective equipment as directed on the chemical label.
Warning: Wear additional personal protective equipment if you will be

Note: The pump will start automatically when power is turned on. The pump will
cycle on and off as needed to retain pressure in the hose.
4. Begin agitation if
needed
1. Decide if agitation is required
Some formulations of liquid pesticides do not remain in solution and should
be agitated to maintain a uniform mix.
This sprayer is equipped with an agitator that should be used when spraying
pesticides classified as "flowable" ("F" or "L"), "wettable powder" ("WP" or
"W"), "emulsion" ("EC" or "E"), "microencapsulated" ("M"), or water
dispersible granules ("WDG" or "DF"). (See pesticide label to determine its
classification.)
2. Operate the agitator
Begin agitation by opening the agitation valve.
