Assembly / Operation Instructions / Parts
5301302
The sprayer is partially assembled at the factory. The only
assembly necessary is to hook up the wiring to an existing
12 volt power source. The red wire of the two wire set must
be connected to the positive post on the battery or the "Hot"
connection on a switch or to the ammeter. The brown wire
may be grounded or connected to the negative battery post.
It is important to test the sprayer with plain water before ac-
tual spraying is attempted. This will enable you to check the
sprayer for leaks in the plumbing system.
In addition to an on/off switch, the pump on the sprayer is
equipped with a pressure switch that is factory set at a maxi-
mum of 35 PSI. The handgun may be shut off at anytime
when the pump system is running and the pump will be elec-
trically turned off by the pressure switch. When the handgun
trigger is squeezed the pump will start again. Use care when
hooking up the battery wires to the battery. Be sure the solu-
tion has been added to the tank because the pump may
start running as soon as the wires are attached.
The handgun has an adjustable nozzle which allows the spray
to be adjusted from a cone shaped fine mist to a straight
stream.
Note: The nut on the nozzle which has finger tabs must
be tight in order for the spray pattern adjustment to vary
when turning the nozzle end.
When it becomes necessary to clean the screen in the
suction line, the screen can be removed from the bottom of
the suction tube. Reach into the tank through the fill open-
ing, slide the tube to one side and slip the screen from the
bottom of the tube. The screen may now be tapped or flushed
with clear water for cleaning.
WARNING: Some chemicals will damage the pump valves
if allowed to soak untreated for a length of time. Always flush
the pump with water after use. Do not allow chemicals to sit
in the pump for extended times of idleness. Flushing may be
done by adding 5 gallons of water to the tank and then pump
the solution through the entire system.
