ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS AND TIPS
IMPORTANT: DO NOT DROP TANK INTO THE TANK
WELL. CAREFULLY SLIDE THE TANK BACK INTO
THE POWER PACK TANK WELL UNTIL IT LOCKS/
CLICKS INTO PLACE.
CAUTION: ATTEMPTING TO REMOVE THE
TANK WITHOUT RELEASING THE TANK LATCH
CAN CAUSE DAMAGE OR BREAK THE LATCH.
DROPPING OR FORCING THE TANK INTO THE
POWER PACK TANK WELL CAN CAUSE DAMAGE
TO THE SPRAYER.
a. The battery should be fully charged prior to the start of a
project.

remaining charge (3 bars = full charge).
d. One bar during startup may limit time of use without charging.
e. The connector side of the battery enters the power pack case.
f. The battery easily seats in the power pack. Over applying
pressure may make the battery difficult to remove without
causing overall damage.
1. RECHARGEABLE BATTERY:
The system uses up to two lithium-ion batteries.
Remove the vented cap, leaving strain lter in place.
Fill as needed and replace vented cap.

EMist-00097-20 EX-7000 Ops Manual - 102620
TIP: IF THE APPLICATOR BECOMES WET OR
BEGINS TO DRIP, YOU ARE MOVING TOO SLOW
OVER THE SURFACE TARGET AREA AND NEED
TO SPEED UP THE APPLICATION PROCESS. DO
NOT OVER-SATURATE THE SURFACE. IF YOU SEE
RUNS OR PUDDLES YOU ARE APPLYING TOO
MUCH CHEMICAL. THE GOAL IS TO ACHIEVE EVEN
COVERAGE OVER THE TARGET SURFACE AREA.
1. Begin at the farthest point from the doorway, work back
toward the doorway so you can step out when application
is complete.
2. Aim applicator 24”-36” (optimal distance) from the
surface target area, begin with a smooth figure “S”
movement aiming below, at, and above the surface target
area while walking at an average pace (continuously
moving).
3. Make sure you are working in a methodical “S” pattern and
let your passes overlap when moving to the next surface
target area.
4. Allow treated area to sit for contact time as recommended
by the chemical manufacturer’s label before re-entry into
the area.
B. SPRAY APPLICATION PROCESS:
C. FLUID MANAGEMENT:
1. Make sure food and drinks are removed, or covered before
application.
2. Spotless, clean interiors require no prep work prior to
application.
3. Loose debris must be swept from floors and other surfaces
prior to application.
4. Inspect the area for mechanical barriers such as:
magazines on table tops, chairs touching each other,
a table or a wall. The intended target surface area for
application will need to be accessible.
5. Please cover and remove valuables. Electronics, furniture,
paper or other common necessities do not need to be
removed from the area.
6. Once the area has been cleaned, application can begin.
7. This system is NOT a mechanical cleaner.
A. PREPARING THE SPRAY AREA:
The system is designed for single or multiple application
environments. Please use the multiple tank applications carefully
by marking tanks with your chemical identiers when necessary.
Application Tips:
1. While depressing the trigger button, move the
applicator in an “S” pattern from bottom to the top
of the surface target area in a continuous motion.
2. Stay in motion, electrostatically charged droplets will
accumulate in higher levels at the tip of the applicator if
you move too slowly while the device is in use.
3. Do not over apply.
4. In between chemical changes, press the trigger while
pointing to the floor or other safe target area for four to
five seconds to clear the remaining chemical in
the system.
C. FLUID MANAGEMENT:
SPRAY APPLICATION
Tips:
1. Fully charge each battery before use.
2. Keep connectors clean and dry at all times.
3. Insert with the battery release button facing upwards into
the battery port. The battery indicator light bar will be inside
the system when insertion is completed into battery port.
4. Do not expose batteries to standing liquid.

TIP: IT IS GOOD PRACTICE TO FLUSH THE APPLICATION
SYSTEM EVERY 24 HOURS WITH CLEAN WATER.
DO NOT STORE CHEMICALS IN THE RESERVOIR WHILE
THE SYSTEM IS NOT IN USE FOR GREATER THAN A 24
HOUR PERIOD.
TIP: IT’S IMPORTANT TO FLUSH THE SYSTEM IN
BETWEEN USE OR WHEN SWITCHING CHEMISTRY
TO PREVENT RESIDUAL BUILD UP AND TO AVOID
MIXING CHEMICALS.
CHANGING CHEMICALS:
The system is designed to minimize maintenance and
cleaning.
Tips:
• Clear the system at least once a day by spraying clean
water through the system for at least
ten seconds.
• Keep batteries charged.
• Inspect cord for cuts, tears or damage.
• Inspect applicator for debris or damage. STORAGE
• Empty fluid or run until empty.
• Insert at least 1 inch (2.5cm) of clean water in the liquid
tank.
• Run the electrostatic sprayer for at least 45-60
seconds to flush active chemicals from the system.
• Remove batteries and re-charge by placing on
the charger.
• Wipe down exterior with water or alcohol to remove dirt
and soil.
• Use the power indicator on the end of the battery to
determine the battery state of charge (3 bars = full
charge).
• Coil the hydroelectric cord up neatly and securely.
• To flush the system, empty the liquid tank and fill with at
least 1 inch (2.5cm) of clean water.
• Spray for at least 45-60 seconds to flush the previous fluid
from the system.
BATTERY REMOVAL
• Remove battery by depressing the battery release button.
• The battery will slide easily from the port once it is disengaged.
• When covers are off, a pull-tab will be visible to assist in
removal of the batteries.
• Place batteries into charger to fully charge for next usage.
Each battery takes approximately 45 minutes to fully charge.
CAUTION: DO NOT STORE THE SYSTEM IN AN AREA
THAT MAY FREEZE (TO AVOID DAMAGE FROM LIQUID
REMAINING IN THE SYSTEM AND LINES). THIS WILL
VOID THE WARRANTY.
CAUTION: TO PREVENT CROSS CONTAMINATION OF
CHEMICALS, YOU MUST PERFORM A FLUSH ANY TIME
YOU CHANGE THE TYPE OF CHEMICALS BEING USED.
