A
IMPORTANTCHARGINGNOTES
1. Longest life and best performance can be obtained if the battery pack is charged when the
air temperature is between 65°F and 75°F (18°- 24°C). DO NOT charge the battery pack in an air
temperature below +40°F (+4.5°C), or above +105°F (+40.5°C). This is important and will prevent
serious damage to the battery pack.
2. The charger and battery pack may become warm to touch while charging. This is a normal
condition, and does not indicate a problem. To facilitate the cooling of the battery pack after use,
avoid placing the charger or battery pack in a warm environment such as
in a metal shed, or an uninsulated trailer.
3. If the battery pack does not charge properly:
a. Check current at receptacle by plugging in a lamp or other appliance.
b. Check to see if receptacle is connected to a light switch which turns power off when you turn out
the lights.
c. Move charger and battery pack to a location where the surrounding air temperature is
approximately 65°F and 75°F (18°- 24°C).
d. If charging problems persist, take the tool, battery pack and charger to your local service center.
4. The battery pack should be recharged when it fails to produce sufficient power on jobs which
were easily done previously. DO NOT CONTINUE to use under these conditions. Follow the
charging procedure. You may also charge a partially used pack whenever you desire with no
adverse affect on the battery pack.
5. Foreign materials of a conductive nature such as, but not limited to, steel wool, aluminum foil, or
any buildup of metallic particles should be kept away from charger cavities. Always unplug the
charger from the power supply when there is no battery pack in the cavity. Unplug charger before
attempting to clean.
6. Do not freeze or immerse charger in water or any other liquid.
WARNING:Shockhazard. Do not allow any liquid to get inside charger. Never attempt to open the
battery pack for any reason. If the plastic housing of the battery pack breaks or cracks, return to a
service center for recycling.

This backpack sprayer is equipped with a 3 stage filtering system (see figure
1). Stage 1 is a filter basket incorporated into the tank opening where fluid is
added. Stage 2 filter is located at the inlet of the pressure cylinder. Stage 2
is a removable In-Tank filter. Stage 3 is a removable filter incorporated into
the shut-off assembly. Periodic cleaning of these filters is recommended to
insure consistent fluid flow through the sprayer. This will also reduce sprayer
component wear.
The stage 3 filter is a removable filter incorporated into the inlet side of the
shut-off valve (see section “disassembling and repairing the shut-off valve”) .
Make sure pressure is released before detaching the hose from the shut-off.
It is best to have no or minimal fluid in the pressure cylinder before removing

FILLING THE SPRAYER
Make sure the filter basket is in place to keep debris from entering the tank.
Determine the amount of mixture needed for your application. Add the proper amount of water to
the tank. Add the proper amount of chemical to the tank (check the chemical label for proper ratio of
chemical). Stir mixture in tank with a clean utensil (like a paint stirrer). The tank will hold the 4-gallon
(15.1L) capacity plus the chemical.
It is not necessary to completely fill the sprayer tank with each use. You can fill the tank with only the
amount needed for each application.
Always follow the manufacturer’s instructions included on their product label.
SPRAYER COMPONENTS & USE INFORMATION, Continued
CLEANING
Always empty the sprayer and clean the tank thoroughly after each use.
Other Cleaning Hints:
Improper spray distribution usually means the nozzle is clogged, remove the nozzle and clean it.
Soap can be added to the water to clean the tank.
Do not use strong cleaning agents or abrasives.
If you use a chemical agent to clean the tank follow the manufacturer’s recommendations for the
disposal of the waste water.
Follow the chemical manufacturers instructions for clean up.
OPERATING THE SPRAYER
• Plug in charged battery
