from freezing.
Annual maintenance – At least once per year thoroughly
clean the whole sprayer and apply silicone grease to all
moving parts & seals. Test with water, and if any washer or
seal has perished it must be replaced.
• Before carrying out any maintenance on this sprayer it is
essential to depressurise the bottle.

This sprayer is made from many different types of plastic,
and although the liquid you wish to spray may be packed in
