1) Do: Check tightness of hose nut to be sure hose is securely attached to the tank outlet.
2) Do: Inspect hose for deterioration, cracks, softness, or brittleness. If any of these conditions are found,
replace hose before using. Replace with original manufacturer’s parts only.
3) Do: Remove pump (see Filling, Pressurizing and Spraying Instructions), inspect interior and exterior of tank for
signs of deterioration of body and bottom. Any sign of deterioration indicates possible tank weakening and could
result in explosive bursting under pressure. If any of these signs are found, discard tank immediately and replace.
Do not attempt to patch leaks, etc., as this could result in serious injury.
4) Do: Follow Filling, Pressurizing and Spraying Instructions, except use water only (Pump plunger 10-20 strokes
and inspect for leaks).

6) Do: If unit passes this test, release pressure (see Pressure Releasing Instructions), empty tank, and proceed with
Filling, Pressurizing and Spraying Instructions.

conditions are found, replace affected part with original manufacturer’s part before using.
