Setup
11. Observe the following cautions to avoid pressure
control
damage.
CAUTION
To
avoid damaging the pressure control, follow these
precautions.
1. Allow
the main hose to act as a pulsation damp
-
ener:
Always use nylon spray
hose at least 50 ft.
(15.2 m) long for the main gun;
Never
use a wire
braid
hose; it is too rigid.
2. Never install a ball valve or shutof f device be-
tween
the filter and the 50 ft. (15 m) hose.
3. Do not allow water or water–base material to
freeze
in the pressure control.
CAUTION
Close the black fuel shutoff lever whenever you are
transporting
the sprayer to prevent fuel from
flooding
the
engine.
Keep
the sprayer upright
and level when operating it
and
when transporting it. This prevents crankcase oil
from leaking into the combustion chamber , which
makes
startup very dif
ficult

1. Fuel specifications. Use automotive gasoline with a
pump octane number of 86 or higher . If the engine
knocks
or pings, use a higher octane fuel.
Unleaded
fuel
minimizes combustion chamber deposits.
2. Gasolines containing alcohol (gasohol). Do not use
gasohol which contains methanol, if the gasohol
does
not contain cosolvents and corrosion inhibitors
for
methanol. Even if it does contain such
additives,
do not use the gasohol if it contains more than 5%
methanol.
