Cleaning and maintaining the machine

• After each use, clean the tank thoroughly. If spray solution remains, properly dispose of it and drain the tank completely. Follow recommendations from the chemical manufacturer for proper disposal of the solution. Pumping causes air to be taken in, and the remaining liquid needs to be discharged.

Refill the tank with a few quarts of soapy water (a mild dish detergent is recommended) and discharge as previously instructed. If necessary, repeat this procedure several times to ensure that the sprayer is clean. Sporadic spray distribution is caused by a clogged nozzle. If necessary, remove and clean nozzle.
