CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS
Your sprayer will give you many years of service if it is properly
maintained. You must clean the sprayer after every use. The thicker the
product the more the need for careful cleaning increases.
1. After removing unused portion from the jar, rinse with water.
2. Fill jar with water and reattach the head to the jar.
3. Put dial on all settings you have used and flush each one with
quick bursts of water.
4. For each setting, flush for at least one minute per setting.
5. Turn off water at the hose bib and remove sprayer from hose.
Remove head from jar and rinse thoroughly.
6. Clean out water holes by carefully poking a straight pin or
bobby pin up through the bottom of the head with the dial set on
hole you want to clean.
A small amount of time spent cleaning after each use will
ensure the many years of service your Wet or Dry sprayer
is designed to provide.
TIPS FOR SUCCESSFUL SPRAYING
With your lawn and garden dealers’ help, select the right sprayable
granules for the job at hand. Follow label instructions exactly.
Spray only when calm to prevent wind drift.
Always water thoroughly before and after spraying.
Spray trees and shrubs totally including branches, trunks and
underside of leaves.
Spray until plant begins to drip.
Spray at first signs of conditions that you wish to control
or correct.
Spray early or late. Do not spray when hot weather (over 85°F)
is expected within 24 hours.
• Do not spray pesticides to plants under moisture stress. Water
them the day before spraying.
• When applying insecticides, fungicides and liquid fertilizers,
spray until plant is wet and just begins to drip. The drip drenches
leaves and grass and goes right on working.
The product manufacturer’s directions always will be the
controlling factor.
Do not spray when rain is expected for 24 hours.
Turning the product knob to “OFF” turns your sprayer into
a handy watering tool. This is also a convenient way to rinse
product off of areas that you may not want treated.
