• Keep out of reach of children.
• Avoid contact with skin and eyes.
• Do not spray towards people or animals.
• Wear protective clothing, gloves, and eye/face protection during operation.
• Store the sprayer and chemicals in a secure location, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
• If swallowed, seek medical advice immediately and show this container or label.

Setup

1. Charge the Battery

Ensure the lithium-ion battery is fully charged before its first use. The battery typically recharges in 1-2 hours using the provided charger.

2. Install the Battery

Insert the fully charged battery into the designated compartment located on the top of the sprayer unit. Ensure correct orientation (positive and negative terminals aligned) and push until it clicks into place. Close the battery door securely.

3. Attach the Hose and Wand

Connect the spray hose to the sprayer unit's outlet and the wand. Ensure all connections are snug to prevent leaks. The sprayer includes a heavy-duty wand designed for durability and reach.

Operating Instructions

1. Fill the Tank

Unscrew the easy-fill lid with the built-in carrying handle and pour your desired liquid (e.g., weed killer, fertilizer, water) into the 1-gallon tank. Do not overfill beyond the maximum fill line. Securely close the lid by twisting it clockwise until tight.

3. Begin Spraying

Press the power button on the sprayer unit to activate the pump. Once activated, squeeze the trigger on the wand handle to begin spraying. The sprayer delivers consistent pressure without manual pumping, ensuring an even application.

4. Adjust Spray Pattern

Depending on the nozzle attached, you can adjust the spray pattern:

• Adjustable Nozzle: Twist the nozzle tip to change from a fine mist for delicate plants to a powerful jet for targeted applications.
• Fan Flat Nozzle: Provides a wide, even spray pattern for broad coverage areas like lawns.
• Round Mist Nozzle: Delivers a gentle, circular mist, ideal for general watering or applying fine sprays.

Maintenance

1. Cleaning After Use

After each use, especially when spraying chemicals, rinse the tank thoroughly with clean water. Fill the tank with clean water and spray it through the wand and nozzle for a few seconds to clear any internal residue. This prevents clogging and extends the life of the sprayer components.

2. Battery Care

Store the battery in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. If storing for extended periods (e.g., off-season), ensure the battery is partially charged (around 50%) to maintain its overall health and longevity. Do not store a fully depleted or fully charged battery for long periods.

3. Nozzle Care

Periodically check the nozzles for any signs of clogging. If a nozzle becomes clogged, remove it from the wand and clean it with water. A small brush or a thin pin can help clear stubborn blockages. Ensure the nozzle is reattached securely after cleaning.

Troubleshooting

No Spray or Weak Spray

• Check Battery: Ensure the battery is fully charged and correctly installed in its compartment.
• Check Connections: Verify all hose and wand connections are secure and not leaking. Loose connections can lead to loss of pressure.
• Check for Clogs: Inspect the nozzle and any internal filters (if accessible) for blockages. Clean any debris found.
• Liquid Level: Ensure there is sufficient liquid in the tank for the pump to draw from.

Leaks

• Tighten Connections: Ensure all caps, hose fittings, and nozzles are tightly secured.
• Inspect O-Rings: Check all O-rings and gaskets for damage, cracks, or improper seating. Replace if necessary (spare O-rings may be included with your unit).
