New Sprayer Break-In

To provide proper performance and long sprayer life,
follow these guidelines for the first 100 operating
hours:
Check the fluid and engine oil levels regularly
and be alert for indications of overheating in any
component of the sprayer.
After filling the tank, check the tank straps for any
play. Tighten as necessary.
After starting a cold engine, let it warm up for about
15 seconds before accelerating.
Avoid hard braking situations for the first several
hours of new sprayer break-in operation. New
brake linings may not be at optimum performance
until several hours of use has caused the brakes
to become burnished (broken-in).
Avoid racing the engine.
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.
CAUTION
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 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.
