(Note: Do not overfill tank with solution.) -
Securely hold the tank and screw the pump assembly back on in a clockwise motion.
-
Pressurize the tank by pumping approximately 15 to 20 times, or until air pressure gauge reads 25 psi (1.7 bar).
Note:
The pressure relief valve will leak if the air pressure is too high. Do not overfill tank with air) -
Once the desired pressure has been achieved, push the handle down and twist it clockwise to lock it in place.
-
