After Spraying
After use, fill the sprayer tank part way with water. Start the
sprayer, and allow the clear water to be pumped through the
plumbing system and out through the spray nozzles.
Refill the tank about half full with plain water and use FIMCO
Tank Neutralizer and Cleaner, and repeat cleaning instructions
above.
Flush the entire sprayer with the neutralizing/cleaning agent,
then flush out one more time with plain water. Follow the
chemical manufacturer's disposal instructions of all wash or
rinsing water.
For the boom, (if applicable) remove the tips and screens from
the nozzle assemblies. Wash these items out thoroughly. Blow
the orifice clean and dry. If the orifice remains clogged, clean it
with a fine bristle (NOT WIRE) brush, or with a toothpick. Do
not damage the orifice. Water rinse and dry the tips before
storing.
WARNING: Some chemicals will damage the pump valves
if allowed to soak untreated for a length of time! ALWAYS
flush the pump as instructed after each use.

Drain all water out of your sprayer, paying special attention to
the pump, handgun, and valve(s). These items are especially
prone to damage from chemicals and freezing weather.
The sprayer should be winterized before storage by pumping
a solution of RV antifreeze through the entire plumbing
system. This antifreeze solution should remain in the
plumbing system during the winter months. When spring time
comes and you are preparing your sprayer for the spray
season, rinse the entire plumbing system out, clearing the
lines of the antifreeze solution. Proper care and maintenance
will prolong the life of your sprayer.

Troubleshooting a 3.8 g.p.m. Pump:
Pump will NOT run:
- Check inline fuse on the wires on the pump. If blown, replace with
new fuse. (15 Amp mini-blade fuse #5157206)
- Make sure BOTH on/off switches are in the 'on' position (-).
- Make sure you 12 volt source (battery) is fully charged.
- Insure a tight connection at the battery clips.
If none of the above will work, try pulling wire terminal "A" off of the
spade terminal of the pressure switch, and cross it over and touch
terminal "B". (You will need to remove the pressure switch cap
before doing this) If your pump runs when you do this, you know
you will need to replace your pressure switch.
Another thing you can try is to take apart the switch box on the lead
wire assembly (#5274443) with the (2) phillips head screws, and
'hot-wire' it together. Take the (2) wires that are screwed to the
rocker switch, off of the switch and twist them together. This will
insure you are getting the full 12 volts to the pump. If your pump
runs after doing this, you will know that your lead wire assembly
List
needs to be replaced.

Pump runs, but does not prime:
9.25
- Check line strainer (screen) at the inlet location, at the tank. You
will need to unscrew the knurled nut to access this screen. (see
2.99
exploded view later in this manual) The ON/OFF valve should be
3.99
closed while performing this, to insure you do not lose any solution.
Periodically take the screen at this location out and clean it.
6.99
- Make sure the bypass line valve is closed, to allow the pressure to
39.95
build up in your system.
- Unscrew the head portion of your pump and remove the check
3.41
valve assembly from inside. You need to make sure the O-Ring
23.95
comes out with this piece as well. (See the exploded view to help
identify these components) These pieces can be cleaned which, in
24.99
most cases, will help restore some, if not most, of your prime. Soak
this check valve in a solution of hot, soapy water. A good brand-
19.96
name dishsoap works well for this. A little bit of 'scrubbing' with
12.95
perhaps an old toothbrush may be required to actually break up any
build-up that may be on the check valve. Rinse off the pieces and
2.24
replace them back into your pump. Reassemble the pump. Hook it
back up and test.
