Inspection & Setup
Inspection & Setup
Your Wylie Power Sprayer was manufactured to the high-
est standards of quality. It is necessary though, to check
to make sure that nothing was damaged during shipping.
Check bolts and fasteners for tightness, especially lug
nuts. Check the motor/pump, plumbing and hose reel for
any signs of damage.
Your Wylie Power Sprayer was completely assembled at
the factory and should not need any additional assembly
before use.
Check the engine for proper oil level (see engine owner’s
manual for proper procedure).
Mounting Skid on Truck/Pickup
Make sure that the vehicle that will carry the skid Power
Sprayer is designed to carry the unit when full of water. Water
weighs 8.34 lb/gal. Therefore, a 500 gallon Power Sprayer
skid can weigh almost 5,000 lbs. when fully loaded.
When picking up a skid sprayer from the side, be aware
that the center of gravity is not at the center of the frame
due to the weight of the engine and pump.
Figure A1
Mounted Skid Sprayer in Truck
Use caution when picking up the skid from the side.
Assure that the center of gravity is between the
forks of a forklift to prevent tipping.
Carefully set the skid on the truck bed or slide the skid
between the wheel wells of a pickup. It is suggested that
the tank is positioned close to the cab for best weight
distribution as well as better accessibility to the engine
and hose reel.
Firmly secure the sprayer to the vehicle to prevent damage
to the sprayer or vehicle.
Attaching Trailer to Vehicle
Power Sprayer trailers require a 2” ball for proper t. Open
the 2” hitch by depressing the trigger and rotating the hitch
handle upward until the hitch locks open. Align the truck
under the hitch and lower the hitch onto the ball by rotating
the jack handle counterclockwise. Rotate the hitch handle
until the trigger locks in place. Secure the hitch handle
with a clip pin. (See Figure A3)
DOT regulations in some states require the safety
chains to be crossed. Check the regulations in your
state for specic instructions.
Attach the safety chains to the eyelets.
Skid sprayer must be secured to the bed of the truck.
Failure to do so could result in the sprayer falling o
the truck or damage to the sprayer and truck.
Figure A2

Inspection & Setup
Electric brake trailers have a battery powered breakaway
brake system that activates the trailer brakes if the trailer
becomes unhitched from the truck while travelling. Attach
the brake cable to the hitch.
Plug the light cable into the truck light socket. Check the
lights to make sure that the clearance, turn, brake and tail
lights are working properly.
Pull the jack pin and rotate the jack or remove the jack
from the mount collar.
The Wylie DOT tag trailer is equipped with a height adjust-
able hitch. The trailer should travel level when the tank is
full. To level the hitch, lower the jack to support the tongue,
remove the hitch bolts, adjust the tongue height as needed,
and reinsert the hitch bolts.
Figure A4
Trailer Hitch Details
A seven prong plug is provided with the trailer. If your
vehicle is not equipped with a corresponding receptacle,
change either the vehicle or trailer to match. If your vehicle
does have a seven prong receptacle, insert the trailer plug
and check to make sure that the two plugs are properly
matched i.e. brakes, lights and turn signals operate in the
correct order.
The DOT trailer is equipped with a breakaway brake kit that
will engage the electric trailer brakes if the trailer comes
unhooked from the truck. The breakaway brake kit consists
of a battery that is charged by the electrical system and an
engaging switch that is activated when a plug is pulled from
the switch by a cable. The breakaway brake cable should
be attached to the truck.
The breakaway brake system is equipped with a test but-
ton and lights to show the status of the breakaway system
battery. Depress the test button to see the status.
Electric Hose Reel
If your sprayer is equipped with an electric hose reel, you
may or may not need additional set-up. Sprayers that
include an electric start engine will have the reel wired to
the sprayer motor battery and will not need any additional
set-up.
Sprayers with a pull start engine will require an auxiliary
power source for the electric hose reel. If an optional bat-
tery was ordered with the sprayer, the necessary wiring
has been completed and the reel is ready for operation.

The hose reel can be powered by the vehicle battery. It
will be necessary to route 4 gauge battery cables from the
reel to the vehicle battery. Do not try to power the hose
reel directly through the trailer electrical system. The wires
are not heavy enough to carry the current. A charger for
an auxiliary battery can be powered through the trailer
electrical system.
Inspecting Motor and Pump
Check the oil level in the gasoline engine before initial start-
up. Some pumps such as the CDS/John Blue diaphragm
pumps have an oil bath crankcase. Check the oil level in
the sight glass to assure proper operation.
Initial Start-up
Add enough water to the spray tank to get above the level
of the strainer and ball valve. Do not add any chemical
to the spray tank until the sprayer has been checked
for proper operation.
Open the ball valve between the tank and pump to allow
water to ow to the pump. The valve is open when the valve
handle is in line with the valve. Inspect the system for any
leaks. Tighten any ttings necessary to stop any leaks. Any
water leaking from supply lines before the pump is started,
will result in an air leak when the pump is engaged, result-
ing in low operating pressure.

so that the pump is in full by-pass.
Remove the trigger gun from the gun holder and start the
engine. Engage the trigger gun and allow water to ow
through the whole system. The pressure may not rise to the
desired level until the pressure regulating valve is adjusted.
Once the system has been checked for any leaks in a low
pressure setting, the sprayer can be changed to high pres-
sure operation. Close the agitator ball valve and rotate the
blue by-pass control handle clockwise to the “pressure” set-
ting. Rotate the pressure regulating control knob to adjust
the pressure. Screw the knob “in” to increase the pressure.
Check the system carefully for any leaks. Tighten ttings
as necessary.

Operation
Operation
Adding Chemical
Many applications for Wylie Power Sprayers require chemi-
cal agents to be added to a carrier solution.
Read the chemical manufacturer’s label for directions for
the proper procedure and amount of chemical to add. Once
the chemical has been added to the spray tank, start the
pump in by-pass mode to allow the chemical to thoroughly
mix. (See “Operation” section for detailed instructions.)
Swivel Hose Reel
All of the hose reels are mounted on a 180º swivel. This
swivel can be locked in one of ve positions or the pins
can be removed to allow the reel to swivel freely.
Protective clothing and equipment must be worn
any time chemicals are being handled. This may
include, but not be limited to, rubber gloves, rubber
apron, face/eye shield, and respirator. Failure to use
protective clothing could result in chemical
exposure causing sickness or death.
Figure B1
Swivel Hose Reel Mount
The Coxreel reels are equipped with a lock pin to prevent
the reel from unrolling during transport. Set the lock pin in
the unlock position before unrolling the hose.
Operation
Check the area to be sprayed to make sure that people or
non-targeted animals will not be in the path of the spray
or drift.
If hazardous chemicals are being sprayed, protective
clothing should be worn for protection from chemical
exposure.
Operation of CDS/John Blue Diaphragm Pump
Always open the main tank valve before starting the engine
and pump. Running the pump without uid will quickly
damage the pump.
Figure B2
Hose Reel Lock Pin
< Lock Pin
Never point the spray toward any part of your body.
The high pressure discharge could cause
serious bodily injury.
Figure B3
Open Main Tank Valve

10
Always start the engine with the pump in the bypass mode.
Rotate the blue bypass handle counterclockwise to put the
pump in the bypass mode.
Starting procedures will vary for di󰀨erent engines (see en-
gine owner’s manual). The Honda manual start engine is
very popular on the Wylie Power Sprayers. Turn the engine
switch “on” before pulling the rope to start the engine.
If chemicals need further mixing in the tank, open the
agitator ball valve.
Operation
Once the chemical is thoroughly mixed, close the agita-
tor valve. Remove the trigger gun from the storage frame
and unroll a su󰀩cient length of pressure hose. Open the
pressure hose ball valve.
Change the pump from bypass mode to pressure mode by
rotating the blue handle clockwise.
Adjust the pressure by turning the pressure adjustment
knob. Screw the knob “in” to increase pressure, “out” to
decrease pressure. The maximum pressure built by the
CDS/John Blue diaphragm pump in 580 psi. Do not set
the pressure above 600 psi.

11
The agitator valve can be partially opened, if desired,
to keep the chemical in suspension. Opening the valve
completely, though, will prevent spraying at maximum
pressure.
Operating Other Pump Styles
Other pump styles are available for the Wylie Power Spray-
ers such as roller and centrifugal pumps. The controls for
the roller pump will be similar to the diaphragm pump, i.e.
an adjusting valve varies pressure and provides bypass.
The centrifugal pump has an agitator valve. The primary
point to remember is that the main tank valve must be open
to feed uid to the pump and any air leak on the suction
side of the pump will prevent the pump from achieving
operating pressure.
Operating The Trigger Gun
The Hypro Long-Throw trigger gun sprays in a range from
a powerful straight stream to a wide angle mist. The rear
trigger handle turns the spray on or o󰀨. The front handle
adjusts the angle of the spray by rotating the handle forward
or backward. Pulling the handle back creates a straight
stream. Push the handle forward for a wide angle spray.
Special Operating Instructions For Twin Tank
Power Sprayers
If agitation is used, it is imperative that the suction
and agitator valves be open for the same tank.
Failure to do so could mix the chemicals and
overow the agitated tank.
The Twin Tank Power Sprayers are equipped with separate
agitator systems for each tank. Open the suction ball valve
for the desired tank. To prevent contamination between the
tanks, make sure that only one suction valve is opened at
a time. Opening both valves, especially when the pump is
turned o󰀨, will allow uid to ow between the tanks until
the volume is equalized.
When the pump is operating and agitation is desired,
make sure that the agitator valve and suction valve for the
same tank are open. Opening the wrong agitator valve will
contaminate the tank being agitated and could overow
that tank.

A variety of options can be added to the Power Sprayer
for specic applications.
Walking Boom
The walking boom can be quick coupled to the pressure
hose for even applications on lawns and landscape. Check
the TeeJet nozzle manual for recommended pressure and
tip selection for specic applications. Generally, broadcast
spraying requires less than 50 psi.
The walking boom can be adjusted for proper boom height
and folded for easy access through gates.
Flat Fold Boom
The at fold boom mounts to the receiver hitch on many
pickups. The Power Sprayer trailers have mounting holes
for a at fold boom mount. The at fold boom height can be
adjusted with several holes in the mount tube. The boom
is equipped with breakaway springs to protect the boom
when an obstruction is hit as well as to fold the boom for
transport. To unfold the boom for spraying, manually un-
fold each section of the boom 180º, then unfold the outer
extensions vertically.
Check the TeeJet nozzle manual for recommended pres-
sure and tip selection for specic applications. Generally,
broadcast spraying requires less than 50 psi.
Fresh Water Tank
A fresh water tank is designed especially for the twin tank
power sprayer but can be mounted to other models as well.
The fresh water tank features a spigot for hand washing.
Additionally, the fresh water tank can ush chemical from
the tank and lines when two chemicals are stored in the
twin tanks. Close the tank ball valve and open the fresh
water tank valve. Start the engine and pump fresh water
through the system.
End of Day Procedure
Some chemicals may require the pump to be ushed at
the end of each day to prevent corrosion. If so, add several
gallons of fresh water to the spray tank and pump through
the system. Check the oil level in the engine and pump
as well as for any loose or damaged ttings. Repair as
necessary.
End of Season Procedure
The sprayer must be protected from freezing during winter
months. If the sprayer is not to be used, drain the spray
tank and add an anti-freeze solution. Start the pump and
circulate the anti-freeze solution through the sprayer. Sim-
ply draining water from the spray tank will not adequately
protect the sprayer from freezing.

Maintenance
Strainer Maintenance
From time to time it may be necessary to clean the strainer
of debris that has collected. Low pump pressure and
volume is an indication that the strainer is clogged and
needs cleaning.
Figure C1
Removing Strainer
With the engine shut o󰀨, close the suction ball valve and
remove the strainer bowl. Empty and rinse the bowl and
clean the screen as needed. Make sure the O-ring that
seals the bowl to the base is not lost when the bowl is
removed. Firmly hand tighten the bowl to the base and
open the suction ball valve.
Engine/Pump Maintenance
The engine and pump each has an owner’s manual printed
by the respective manufacturer that has been included
with this manual. If you did not receive a pump or engine
manual, contact Wylie Customer Service at 888-788-7753
to request a manual.
Refer to the manufacturer’s manual for recommended
service and maintenance.
Spray Tank
The spray tank may be manufactured from either natural
white or “algae resistant” black resin. If water only is to be
sprayed from a white tank it may be necessary to add a
small amount of bleach to the tank to prevent the growth of
algae which will discolor the interior of a white tank.

Tire Safety Information
1. TIRE SAFETY INFORMATION
This portion of the User’s Manual contains tire safety information as required by 49 CFR 575.6.
Section 2.1 contains “Steps for Determining Correct Load Limit - Trailer”.
Section 2.2 contains “Steps for Determining Correct Load Limit –Tow Vehicle”.
Section 2.3 contains a Glossary of Tire Terminology, including “cold inflation pressure”, “maximum inflation
pressure”, “recommended inflation pressure”, and other non-technical terms.
Section 2.4 contains information from the NHTSA brochure entitled “Tire Safety –Everything Rides On It”.
This brochure This brochure, as well as the preceding subsections, describes the following items;
Tire labeling, including a description and explanation of each marking on the tires, and information
about the DOT Tire Identification Number (TIN).
Recommended tire inflation pressure, including a description and explanation of:
A. Cold inflation pressure.
B. Vehicle Placard and location on the vehicle.
C. Adverse safety consequences of under inflation (including tire failure).
D. Measuring and adjusting air pressure for proper inflation.
Tire Care, including maintenance and safety practices.
Vehicle load limits, including a description and explanation of the following items:
A. Locating and understanding the load limit information, total load capacity, and cargo capacity.
B. Calculating total and cargo capacities with varying seating configurations including quantitative examples
showing / illustrating how the vehicles cargo and luggage capacity decreases as combined number and size
of occupants’ increases. This item is also discussed in Section 3.
C. Determining compatibility of tire and vehicle load capabilities.
D. Adverse safety consequences of overloading on handling and stopping on tires.
1.1. STEPS FOR DETERMINING CORRECT LOAD LIMIT –TRAILER
Determining the load limits of a trailer includes more than understanding the load limits of the tires alone. On all trailers
there is a Federal certification/VIN label that is located on the forward half of the left (road) side of the unit. This
certification/VIN label will indicate the trailer’s Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR). This is the most weight the fully
loaded trailer can weigh. It will also provide the Gross Axle Weight Rating (GAWR). This is the most a particular axle
can weigh. If there are multiple axles, the GAWR of each axle will be provided.
If your trailer has a GVWR of 10,000 pounds or less, there is a vehicle placard located in the same location as the
certification label described above. This placard provides tire and loading information. In addition, this placard will show
a statement regarding maximum cargo capacity. Cargo can be added to the trailer, up to the maximum weight specified on
the placard. The combined weight of the cargo is provided as a single number. In any case, remember: the total weight of
a fully loaded trailer can not exceed the stated GVWR.
For trailers with living quarters installed, the weight of water and propane also need to be considered. The weight of fully
filled propane containers is considered part of the weight of the trailer before it is loaded with cargo, and is not considered
part of the disposable cargo load. Water however, is a disposable cargo weight and is treated as such. If there is a fresh
water storage tank of 100 gallons, this tank when filled would weigh about 800 pounds. If more cargo is being
transported, water can be off-loaded to keep the total amount of cargo added to the vehicle within the limits of the GVWR
so as not to overload the vehicle. Understanding this flexibility will allow you, the owner, to make choices that fit your
travel needs.
When loading your cargo, be sure it is distributed evenly to prevent overloading front to back and side to side. Heavy
items should be placed low and as close to the axle positions as reasonable. Too many items on one side may overload a
tire. The best way to know the actual weight of the vehicle is to weigh it at a public scale. Talk to your dealer to discuss
the weighing methods needed to capture the various weights related to the trailer. This would include the weight empty or
unloaded, weights per axle, wheel, hitch or king-pin, and total weight.

Excessive loads and/or underinflation cause tire overloading and, as a result, abnormal tire flexing occurs. This situation
can generate an excessive amount of heat within the tire. Excessive heat may lead to tire failure. It is the air pressure that
enables a tire to support the load, so proper inflation is critical. The proper air pressure may be found on the
certification/VIN label and/or on the Tire Placard. This value should never exceed the maximum cold inflation pressure
stamped on the tire.
1.1.1. TRAILERS 10,000 POUNDS GVWR OR LESS
Tire and Loading Information Placard – Figure 1-1
1. Locate the statement, “The weight of cargo should never exceed XXX kg or XXX lbs.,” on your vehicle’s
placard. See figure 1-1.
2. This figure equals the available amount of cargo and luggage load capacity.
3. Determine the combined weight of luggage and cargo being loaded on the vehicle. That weight may not
safely exceed the available cargo and luggage load capacity.
The trailer’s placard refers to the Tire Information Placard attached adjacent to or near the trailer’s VIN
(Certification) label at the left front of the trailer.
1.1.2. TRAILERS OVER 10,000 POUNDS GVWR (NOTE:THESE TRAILERS ARE NOT REQUIRED TO HAVE A TIRE
INFORMATION PLACARD ON THE VEHICLE)
1. Determine the empty weight of your trailer by weighing the trailer using a public scale or other means.
This step does not have to be repeated.
2. Locate the GVWR (Gross Vehicle Weight Rating) of the trailer on your trailer’s VIN (Certification) label.
3. Subtract the empty weight of your trailer from the GVWR stated on the VIN label. That weight is the
maximum available cargo capacity of the trailer and may not be safely exceeded.
1.2. STEPS FOR DETERMINING CORRECT LOAD LIMIT –TOW VEHICLE
1. Locate the statement, “The combined weight of occupants and cargo should never exceed XXX lbs.,” on
your vehicle’s placard.
2. Determine the combined weight of the driver and passengers who will be riding in your vehicle.
3. Subtract the combined weight of the driver and passengers from XXX kilograms or XXX pounds.
4. The resulting figure equals the available amount of cargo and luggage capacity. For example, if the “XXX”
amount equals 1400 lbs. and there will be five 150 lb. passengers in your vehicle, the amount of available
cargo and luggage capacity is 650 lbs. (1400-750 (5 x 150) = 650 lbs.).
5. Determine the combined weight of luggage and cargo being loaded on the vehicle. That weight may not
safely exceed the available cargo and luggage capacity calculated in Step # 4.
6. If your vehicle will be towing a trailer, load from your trailer will be transferred to your vehicle. Consult the
tow vehicle’s manual to determine how this weight transfer reduces the available cargo and luggage
capacity of your vehicle.
1.3. GLOSSARY OF TIRE TERMINOLOGY
Accessory weight
The combined weight (in excess of those standard items which may be replaced) of automatic transmission,
power steering, power brakes, power windows, power seats, radio and heater, to the extent that these items
are available as factory-installed equipment (whether installed or not).
