Always wear goggles, gloves, long sleeve shirt, long pants, and full foot protection when spraying. Never use any tool to remove pump if there is pressure in sprayer. Never stand with face or body over top of tank when pumping or loosening pump to prevent ejecting pump assembly and/or solution from striking and injuring you.

• Check tightness of hose nut to ensure the hose is securely attached to the tank outlet.
• Inspect hose for deterioration, cracks, softness, or brittleness. Replace hose with original manufacturer's parts if any conditions are found.
• Remove pump, inspect interior and exterior of tank for signs of deterioration. Discard tank immediately if signs of weakening are found, as this could lead to explosive bursting. Do not attempt to patch leaks.
• Follow filling, pressurizing, and spraying instructions, using only water. Pump plunger 10-20 strokes and inspect for leaks.
• Direct shut-off away from you and open to ensure discharge is not clogged.
• If the unit passes this test, release pressure, empty the tank, and proceed with filling, pressurizing, and spraying instructions.
