ing agents to clean the tank.

REPLACING SEALS
See Figure 14.
WARNING:
Always follow procedures for draining and
cleaning the tank before replacing the seals.
Make sure you wear rubber gloves when reach-
ing into the chemical tank. Wash your hands
thoroughly afterwards. Failure to follow these
instructions can result in a rash, skin irritation,
or other serious personal injury if you directly
contact some chemicals.
Over time, seals can harden and crack, which can allow
the backpack sprayer to leak. A set of replacement seals is
included. Refer to the image shown for the location of each
of the seals, then replace as needed to address any leaks
that develop.
Additional sets of replacement seals can be ordered by
contacting customer service.
NOTE: Unthreading the connections to replace the seals
could allow liquid to escape, so always clean the backpack
sprayer thoroughly as previously described before replac-
ing the seals.
