Face the pump away from the operator to minimize the risk of contamination due to hose failure. The sprayer should be securely attached to any ATV or other type of vehicle that it is installed on.

Silvan Rakpack’s are supplied with a blue adjustable nozzle containing a large orifice, which when twisting the tip can allow for a greater flow of liquid. It is recommended that adjustable nozzle is used first with the spray gun and can be changed later if you require.
