Assembly
If you have not yet mounted the sprayer to your vehicle, do so at this
time following the instructions in "Step Six: Attach Sprayer to Vehicle".
AFTER EACH USE, disconnect power to the sprayer by disconnecting
the sprayer's pump cord from the remote switch – the remote switch may
remain connected to the battery.
NOTE: It is important to disconnect power to the sprayer when not in
use for safety reasons. ALWAYS verify that the power has been
disconnected or the remote switch is in the OFF position before adding
chemicals or servicing.
When it is necessary to disconnect the sprayer's remote switch from the
battery, use the following procedure:
1. Disconnect sprayer's pump cord from the remote switch.
2. Disconnect the remote switch from the vehicle battery as
follows:
a) Disconnect vehicle battery ground wire.
b) Disconnect the remote switch's black battery clamp from
the negative(-) terminal of the vehicle battery.
c) Disconnect the remote switch's red battery clamp from the
positive(+) terminal of the vehicle battery.
d) Reconnect the vehicle battery ground wire.
WARNING: Always disconnect in this sequence to avoid possible shock.
(Remember that on some vehicle models, you may need to remove the
sprayer to access the battery)
WARNING
Check and test completed assembly
Check assembly to assure the sprayer is properly assembled and in
safe working condition:
a) Check that the gun clip screws are tight, hose clamps are secure,
and tank straps are properly fastened.
b) While it is unlikely that factory-assembled components become
loose, they should also be checked to make sure they are tight.
Test the system for leaks with water:
a) Fill the tank with water.
b) Connect the remote switch to the pump power cord and turn the
remote switch ON. The pump is an "on demand" pump. When
turned on, the pump will prime itself, then turn off. When the
gun trigger is squeezed, the pump will automatically start.
c) Operate the spray gun by squeezing the gun trigger.
d) Check for leaks throughout the system. If a leak is detected, fix the
leak and re-test the system with water until no leaks are detected.
