Pre-Starting Checks

Check the following items each time you begin using
the sprayer for the day:
•
Check the tire pressure.
Note:
These tires are different than car tires; they
require less pressure to minimize turf compaction
and damage.
•
Check all fluid levels and add the appropriate
amount of specified fluids, if any are found to be
low.
•
Check the brake pedal operation.

With the engine off, check for oil leaks, loose parts,
and any other noticeable malfunctions.
If any of the above items are not correct, notify your

you to check other items on a daily basis, so ask what
your responsibilities are.
