The SPS0 Knapsack Sprayer
We would like to congratulate you on the purcharse of your new SPS0, The sprayer that allows you the easiest,
most comfortable way of carrying out your farm and garden projects with the revolutionary piston-diaphragm pump
(Patented), that eleminates the problems inherent in most spayers.
As a new owner of the skillfully engineered SPS0, we strongly recommend you carefully read and follow all the
information on this sheet before use, and then, save them for future reference.
Please read the attached trouble shooting guide.
HOW TO ASSEMBLE
1. Attach spray wand to spray gun and tighten firmly.
2. Take pump handle Kit 7 (solid) and insert into the tube on the pump lever Kit 5 (”T” shape lever on
sprayer). You will notice holes drilled through both the pump handle and the pump lever. Align these holes, take
the “R” pin provided and place through the holes. This affixes the handle in place and is ready for use.
For storage reverse process and then place “R” pin through the pump lever Kit 5 to keep from losing “R” pin.
3. Instructions for installing shoulder strap plastic buckle:
First put the sprayer on a hard flat surface, take the white plastic buckle and while holding the sprayer up slightly,
place buckle under the tubular metal frame. Slowly push down forcing the frame into the buckle. Repeat the
same procedure for other side.
HOW TO PREPARE YOUR UNIT FOR USE
1. Remove cap.
2. Mix solution in a separate receptacle, following manufacturers directions on the tank.
3. Pour pre-mixed solution into sprayer and close the lid.
4. Place sprayer on back and pressurize tank by pumping approximately 10 to 15 times. For best results, the
sprayer should be pumped every 5 seconds on a continuous basis. This will maintain your spraying
pressure. If you do not pump, you will not have pressure to spray.
5. Always oil the seal on lid of unit as well as the check valve, this will extend the life of the seal and is important for
obtaining a proper seal with no leaks.
6. A unit that has been used with herbicides should never be used to spray insecticides, unless the sprayer has
been properly cleaned and neutralized of all reactive chemicals. Failure to do this could cause you to kill plants
that have been sprayed. Consult with the manufacturer of the chemicals in use to obtain proper instructions.
HOW TO CLEAN AND MAINTAIN
1. Remove lid and pour out remaining solution, then rinse all parts thoroughly with clean water.
2. Leaving approximately ½ gallon of fresh water in tank, pressurize and flush pumping systems by depressing
trigger at least 2 minutes, then drain all remaining water.
3. Always store tank clean and empty in a dry, shaded location.
