STORING AND MAINTAINING YOUR SPRAYER
The Battery Should be removed prior to storage.
• The sprayer should be stored out of direct sunlight in a cool dry space.
• Before freezing weather make sure to drain all liquid in the tank, pump, hose, shut-off valve, wand and
nozzle, to avoid liquid expansion and cracking in the sprayer components (See "Cleaning" section).
Lock the shut-off valve in the "open" position.
• When service is required call your nearest dealer and always insist on original manufactured r
eplacement parts.
• Inspect the hose, wand, tank and shut-off valve for wear, damage or leaks on a regular basis and
repair defects promptly.
