optimum performance until several hours of
use has caused the brakes to become burnished
(broken-in).
• Avoid racing the engine.
• Vary the sprayer speed during operation. Avoid
fast starts and quick stops.
• Refer to the Maintenance section for any
special low hour checks.
Operating the Sprayer
To operate the Multi-Pro Sprayer first fill the spray
tank, then apply the solution to the work area,
and finally clean the tank. It is important that you
complete all three of these steps in succession to
avoid damaging the sprayer. For example, do not
mix and add chemicals in the spray tank at night
and then spray in the morning. This would lead to
separation of the chemicals and possible damage
to the sprayer components.
Chemicals are hazardous and can cause
personal injury.
• Read the directions on the chemical
labels before handling the chemicals
and follow all manufacturer
recommendations and precautions.
• Keep chemicals away from your skin.
Should contact occur, wash the affected
area thoroughly with soap and clean
water.
• Wear goggles and any other protective
equipment recommended by the
chemical manufacturer.
The Multi-Pro Sprayer has been specifically
designed to have high durability in order to give it
the long sprayer life you need. Different materials
have been chosen for specific reasons at different
locations on your sprayer to meet this goal.
Unfortunately there is no single material which is
perfect for all foreseeable applications.
Some chemicals are more aggressive than others
and each chemical interacts differently with various
materials. Some consistencies (e.g. wettable
powders, charcoal) are more abrasive and lead
to higher than normal wear rates. If a chemical
is available in a formulation that would provide
increased life to the sprayer, use this alternative
formulation.
As always, remember to clean your sprayer
thoroughly after all applications. This will do the
most to ensure your sprayer has a long and trouble
free life.
Filling the Fresh Water Tank
Always fill the fresh water tank with clean water
before handling or mixing any chemicals.
The fresh water tank is located at the front, left
side of the tank (Figure 24). It supplies a source
of fresh water for you to wash chemicals off of
your skin, eyes, or other surfaces in the case of
accidental exposure.
To open the fresh water tank spigot, turn the lever
on the spigot.

Filling the Spray Tank
Important: Ensure that the chemicals you
will be using are compatible for use with
Viton (see the manufacturer's label; it should
indicate if it is not compatible). Using a
chemical that is not compatible with Viton will
degrade the O-rings in the sprayer, causing
leaks.
