SAFETY & OPERATIONAL PRECAUTIONS
For proper performance do NOT modify, substitute nozzle, hose diameter or length
Manufacturer assumes no liability for the use or misuse of this unit.
Wear protective clothing, gloves and eye-wear when working with chemicals.
Always direct the discharge away from people and electrical devices.
Follow the chemical manufacturer's safe handling instructions.
DO NOT use d-Limonene or other chemicals that are not compatible with the Santoprene diaphragms.
Viton upgrade is available.
TO INSTALL (REFER TO DIAGRAM ON NEXT PAGE)
1. Mount the unit above chemical and / or water containers.
2. Securely attach the suction tubes to the check valves as shown in the drawing.
3. Place one tube/strainer in the chemical concentrate(s) and the other in a static container of water. (DO NOT use
pressurized water!)
4. Attach a compressed airline to the inlet ball valve. DO NOT TURN ON
How to Set Your Dilution Ratio:
The adjustment knobs allow you to achieve wide range of dilution ratios.
Turn adjustment knobs counterclockwise to increase flow or clockwise to decrease flow.
For a starting place turn the water knob completely clockwise (closed) then turn 2 turns counterclockwise (open).
Then turn the chemical knob completely clockwise (closed) then counterclockwise (open) in 1/4 to 1/2 turn
increments till required dilution ratios are achieved.
If ratios can't be achieved with the chemical knob all the way counterclockwise start turning water knob clockwise
to shift more draw to the chemical side.
For weaker solutions than the knobs can achieve use a metering tip to further reduce the chemical flow (some
units do not include metering tips standard).
TO OPERATE
Always make sure the discharge is pointed in a safe direction before turning inlet valve on. Trigger can be
released at any time during operation but should not be left unattended for long periods of time without closing
inlet ball valve.
1. Open the inlet ball valve point the wand in a safe direction and pull the trigger on the gun.
2. Final chemical dilution adjustments will now have to be made. Make adjustments to the knobs based on results.
3. If the solution seems to be too weak slowly turn the chemical knob counterclockwise.
4. Continue opening till the solution is strong enough for the application.
5. Once dilution ratio is set, release the trigger gun or begin application.
