and then spra y in the mor ning . T his w ould lead to

T he Multi-Pro Spra yer has been specifically
designed to ha v e high durability in order to gi v e it
the long spra yer life y ou need. Different materials
ha v e been c hosen for specific reasons at different
locations on y our spra yer to meet this g oal.
Unfor tunately there is no single material whic h is
perfect for all foreseeable applications .
Some c hemicals are more ag g ressi v e than others
and eac h c hemical interacts differently with v arious
materials . Some consistencies (e .g . w ettable
po w ders , c harcoal) are more abrasi v e and lead
to higher than nor mal w ear rates . If a c hemical
is a v ailable in a for m ulation that w ould pro vide
increased life to the spra yer , use this alter nati v e
for m ulation.
As alw a ys , remember to clean y our spra yer
thoroughly after all applications . T his will do the
most to ensure y our spra yer has a long and trouble
free life .
Filling the Fresh Water Tank
Alw a ys fill the fresh w ater tank with clean w ater
before handling or mixing any c hemicals .
T he fresh w ater tank is located at the front, left
side of the tank ( Figure 23 ). It supplies a source
of fresh w ater for y ou to w ash c hemicals off of
y our skin, eyes , or other surfaces in the case of
accidental exposure .
T o open the fresh w ater tank spig ot, tur n the lev er
on the spig ot.
