Owner's Manual
Instructions for Assembly, Testing, Operation, Servicing, and Storage
ATV Boom Kit, 7-Nozzle: For outdoor use with agricultural pesticides
and other liquids**
WARNING
READ and UNDERSTAND the Owner's Manual completely before using this sprayer.
Assemble, test, and use only in accordance with the Owner's Manual instructions.
READ and FOLLOW chemical label instructions. Pesticides are hazardous chemicals.
KNOW emergency procedures BEFORE handling chemicals. Sprayer leaks, bodily chemical
contact, poisoning, and spills require immediate response.
AVOID inhaling, ingesting, or coming into contact with any chemicals.
WEAR personal protective gear when filling, using, cleaning, and servicing the sprayer.
KEEP sprayer and spray materials away from children and pets. Pesticides are especially toxic
to them.
EXERCISE CAUTION in ATV vehicle handling and do not exceed 5 KPH. ATV will be less
stable and handle very differently with filled sprayer attached.
DO NOT TURN ON POWER to sprayer until ready to spray in order to avoid unintentional
spray release.
ALWAYS keep a fire extinguisher rated “ABC” nearby.
Improper use of the sprayer or handling of chemicals could result in serious injury or illness
to the operator or nearby persons/animals, or could cause damage to the environment.
**This boom is recommended for use in spraying non-flammable liquids such as pesticides and water for dust control. The boom
will be damaged and warranty voided if used to apply bleach, chlorine, ice control chemicals, or any petroleum based product
(gasoline, diesel, kerosene, oil). The boom should not be used to transfer any product intended for human consumption. WE
RECOMMEND THAT THE BOOM NOT BE USED FOR OTHER PURPOSES ONCE IT HAS BEEN USED FOR SPRAYING
PESTICIDES. Any chemical will leave some residual in the boom components, even after the boom has been properly cleaned.
These residual chemicals can have unexpected effects on future uses. For example, spraying water or other liquids that are
contaminated with residual pesticide may result in unforeseen hazards to plant or animal life. This boom should not be used by
people with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities or lack of experience and knowledge.

Step 6: Check and test completed assembly.
WARNING
Check and test completed assembly
Serious injury could result from chemical leaks if sprayer is improperly
assembled or the design of the sprayer is modified.
Follow the steps below to ensure the sprayer is properly assembled. Never
modify the sprayer design.
1. Check assembly
Check assembly to assure the sprayer is properly assembled and in safe
working condition:
a) Check that the gun clip screws are tight, hose clamps are secure, and tank
straps are properly fastened.
b) While it is unlikely that factory assembled components become loose, they
should also be checked to make sure they are tight.
2. Test with water
Test the system for leaks with water:
a) Partially fill the tank with water.
b) Connect the wire harness to the pump power cord and turn the remote
switch ON. The pump is an "on demand" pump. When turned on, the
pump will prime itself, and then turn off. When the gun trigger is
squeezed, the pump will automatically start.
c) Operate the spray gun by squeezing the gun trigger.
d) Check for leaks throughout the system. If a leak is detected, fix the leak
and re-test the system with water.

17
Chemical Application Safety:
WARNING
Caution must be used when spraying chemicals to avoid unsafe exposure
to humans and the environment.
Heed the warnings below and follow all instructions carefully.
Before Spraying
Sprayer prep. ALWAYS inspect and prepare the sprayer before use according to the
directions provided in this manual.
Keep sprayer off. Do not turn on power to the sprayer until ready to spray in order to avoid
unintentional spray release.
Boom nozzles down. Make sure boom nozzles are oriented to spray straight down before
starting the sprayer. An incorrectly positioned boom nozzle may spray chemicals on you or
others.
Wind speed. NEVER spray when wind speed exceeds 5 KPH in order to minimize spray
drift.
Clear area/post. ALWAYS keep the work area clear of people and pets. POST warning
notices to restrict access by the public for the period recommended on chemical label.
Operator age. You must be 16 years of age or older to operate this sprayer. Pesticides are
especially toxic to children.
During Spraying
Over application. DO NOT over apply pesticide. Apply at a rate recommended by chemical
manufacturer. Excess pesticide can be dangerous to humans, damage desirable plants, and
contaminate soil and water sources.
Never point gun. NEVER point the spray gun at people or animals.
Children/pets. ALWAYS exercise extra caution when spraying near areas accessible to
children and pets.
Eating/smoking. DO NOT eat, drink, smoke, rub your eyes, or touch any part of your bare

Operation – Important Safety Information (continued)
18
ATV Vehicle Handling Safety:
WARNING
Serious injury can occur if the ATV on which the sprayer is mounted is driven unsafely.
Driver age. You must be 16 years of age or older to operate the ATV with the sprayer attached.
Less stable. Be aware that all vehicle handling will be affected with the filled sprayer attached.
See your ATV's warning label for the hazards associated with driving:
oToo fast
oOn paved surfaces
oOn inclines or rough terrain.
These hazards will be increased drastically as a result of the additional weight and location of
the filled sprayer. The center of gravity will be higher and weight distribution different, causing
the ATV to be less stable when braking, turning, and driving. Exercise extra caution in vehicle
handling. Use particular caution on sloped or rough surfaces in order to prevent rollover. A
vehicle equipped with Roll Over Protection System (ROPS) is recommended if you will be
operating on non-level terrain.
Speed limit. DO NOT exceed 5 KPH with sprayer mounted on ATV.
Ride/transport. NEVER ride or transport cargo on the sprayer.
Chemical accident procedures:
WARNING
Before you fill the sprayer, review the following information with regard
to handling accidents.
Chemical spills, sprayer leaks, personal contamination, and poisoning are
accident situations which you may encounter. All require an immediate
response – See instructions below.
Sprayer leak
In the event that the sprayer develops a leak while spraying chemicals,
you must immediately stop spraying.
Turn off power to the sprayer and follow the directions below, as
applicable.
Bodily chemical
contact
Personal contamination can occur when chemicals splash, spill, or spray
directly onto a person.
