ASSEMBLY
Fit the lance assembly to the sprayer by means of the
flexible hose.
Remove the nut fitted to the lance (Fig 1.1)
Insert hose through nut (Fig 1.2)
Push the hose fitting fully onto the lance connector
(Fig 1.3)
Screw nut tightly onto lance (Fig 1.4)
Attach the other end of the hose to the container using
the above method. Ensure that the hose is fully pushed on
and that the nut is screwed down tight (Fig. 1.5)
Fit the carrying strap by threading the expandable ring
through the hole in the lug moulded into the container
base. Fit the other end of the strap through the slot in the
top lug and thread through the metal buckle and adjust
length to suit (Fig 2)
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Ensure that the hose is securely attached to the sprayer and
the lance and the locking nuts are tight. Check that the
liquid which you intend to use is suitable - see the spraying
chemical section. Fill the container to the desired level,
taking care not to exceed the maximum fill mark. Screw
the pump firmly home to ensure an airtight seal. Operate
the pressure release valve manually by pulling the blue
knob upwards to ensure it is functioning correctly.
Release the pump handle by pressing down and turning
anti-clockwise. Pump to pressurise the container. When the
correct operating pressure has been reached (approx. 45 psi
- 3 bar), the pressure release valve will vent to discharge
excess air. The container is adequately pressurised and
does not require further pumping.
Trigger Operation:
The trigger mechanism has been designed to allow for two
modes of operation, either intermittent or continuous.
Intermittent
Depress trigger (A) to operate (Fig 3.1) and release it to
stop spraying.
Continuous
While depressing trigger (A), push forward with the thumb
to hold in the "lock on" position (B). The sprayer will now
continue to operate without any further finger pressure, so
preventing fatigue.
To turn off the sprayer pull back the lever and release.
Aim the spray nozzle towards a test area, squeeze the
trigger on the lance and adjust the nozzle to the desired
degree of fineness by twisting the nozzle from mist
through coarse spray to jet. Do not undo the nozzle too
far or leakage will occur from the back of the nozzle.
If the nozzle continues to spray or drip after the trigger has
been released, it is because there is air in the discharge
system (lance, handle trigger or hose).
Purge the system by turning the nozzle to jet and
operating the trigger on the lance "on" and "off" in short
bursts until the liquid shuts off cleanly. Collect any
chemicals in a separate container and use later.
To keep spraying, a few pumps at infrequent intervals are
all that is required.

AFTER USE AND BEFORE STORAGE RELEASE THE PRESSURE
FROM THE CONTAINER BY PULLING THE BLUE KNOB OF
THE PRESSURE RELEASE VALVE UPWARDS.
Cleaning: If the sprayer has been used with chemicals,
discard safely any unused solution after use. Add a little
detergent and some warm water (not hot) to the sprayer.
Re-assemble the sprayer and spray some of the contents
through.
REPEAT WITH CLEAN, COLD WATER.
Check that the nozzle assembly is free from sediment.
If necessary repeat the process until the sprayer is clean.
When empty store in an upright position.
SPRAYING CHEMICALS
This sprayer is intended for use with water based solutions of
proprietary cleaning, degreasing, disinfecting and stripping
materials, where resistance to more aggressive chemicals is
required. Always follow the chemical suppliers' on-pack
instructions, as well as the instructions listed below:
•
Wear protective clothing, goggles, face mask and gloves.
•
Avoid inhaling spray mist.
•
Avoid skin contact with chemicals.
•
Work in a well ventilated area.
•
Take care to protect children, pets and fish from exposure
to chemicals.
•
Wash hands thoroughly after use and especially before
eating.
•
Wash any contaminated clothing.
•
Seek medical attention if spray gets in your eyes or if you
develop any symptoms after spraying.
•
Do not spray near food or food preparation areas. When
spraying crops, pay particular attention to the chemical
manufacturer's advice on time before crops can be eaten,
etc.
•
Do not spray any solvent based material e.g. white spirit.
•
Spray only thin watery solutions; thicker mixtures will clog
the nozzle.
•
Powdered chemicals can be sprayed successfully if they are
completely soluble in water. If they are not completely
soluble and the solution tends to settle, spraying can still
be successful so long as the mixture is continually agitated.
•
If the material to be sprayed contains sediment, strain the
liquid into the sprayer bottle.
•
Do not over-pressurise the bottle, or tamper with the
pressure release valve.
•
After use pay particular attention to the paragraph on
'Cleaning.'
NOTE: Your sprayer is manufactured from many different
types of plastic material, and although the liquid you wish
to use may be packed in a plastic container, this is no
guarantee that it will not damage the sprayer. If you are in
any doubt about any chemical you intend to spray, we
recommend that you contact the Consumer Services
Department at the address given to check its suitability.
MAINTENANCE (FIG 4)
AFTER USE AND BEFORE STORAGE RELEASE THE PRESSURE
FROM THE CONTAINER BY PULLING THE BLUE KNOB OF
THE PRESSURE RELEASE VALVE UPWARDS.
A. PRESSURE RELEASE VALVE (Fig. 4.1)
The safety valve is designed to release any excess pressure
and to let you release the pressure after spraying.
WARNING: DO NOT INTERFERE WITH THE SETTING OF THE
AIR PRESSURE SAFETY VALVE.
B. PLUNGER HEAD
The 'O' ring should be kept lubricated to slide freely in the
barrel and so pump air efficiently. To apply grease proceed
as follows. Remove the pump assembly (Fig. 4.2) by
