MAINTENANCE 1) Use only approved chemicals at the recommended mix ratios. All chemicals should be added through the feed system and NOT added directly to the water in the solution tank to prevent possible damage to the pump, seals, or other components. 2) For optimum performance, flush the Chemical Feed lines after every job by replacing the chemical containers with containers of clear water and spraying through the gun until the fluid stream is clear. See the Maintenance Schedule, below.
