FOR YOUR SAFETY
This sprayer operates with liquid under pressure.
Failure to observe CAUTIONS and follow instructions
for use and maintenance can cause tank, hose or
other parts to become corroded, weakened, and/or
burst. This can result in SERIOUS INJURY or PROPERTY
DAMAGE from forcible ejection of parts or high-
pressure discharge of spray material.
DO NOT USE ANY FLAMMABLES OR BOILING LIQUIDS
IN THIS SPRAYER as it is not designed nor intended
for such use. Some spray materials can ignite or
explode. Do not spray in an enclosed space, near
an open flame such as found in a BBQ grill or water
heater, near an electric motor or open switch, or
any source of heat. DO NOT SMOKE while spraying.
Use of flammables could result in SERIOUS INJURY
or PROPERTY DAMAGE from unintended ignition or
explosion. DO NOT USE ANY CAUSTICS OR ACIDS IN
THIS SPRAYER, since these can damage or weaken
the sprayer and its parts, resulting in SERIOUS INJURY
or PROPERTY DAMAGE. Keep out of reach from
children and pets. Always read and follow directions
on the spray material container.

• Pump in tank • Supply Tube
• Spray Wand • Instructions
• Hose
HOW TO FILL
A.) With pump handle all the way down and in
the locked position.

C.) Lift out the pump.
D.) Pour measured amount of spray material into
the open tank. Follow label directions on
spray material container for amount to use.
E.) Replace pump and turn clockwise to seal.
Do not over tighten.
HOW TO PRESSURIZE
Seal the pump. Run water through garden hose
to remove excess air. Turn o water. Thread
connector onto hose. Push connector onto red
adapter on tank. Turn on water and fill to “MAX
FILL” line on tank; shut water o. Pull back collar
on the quick coupler to remove it from the
sprayer. The air trapped inside the tank has been
compressed by the water and you are ready
to spray.
NOTE: If you release the pressure before using all
the spray material, use this conventional method
to repressurize sprayer. Using the handle, pump
up and down. The more you pump, the more
pressure you will build up inside the tank. When it
becomes difficult to pump, your tank has reached
maximum pressure. Do not stand so your head is
over pump.

SERVICE AND MAINTENANCE
Visit www.hdhudson.com/FAQS
Clean and dry your sprayer after every use to greatly
prolong its useful service life. Many spray materials will
harden if left in the sprayer and plug up the nozzle,
shut-o valve or supply tube. The soft parts, O-rings
and gaskets, will ultimately wear out and need
replacing, just like the oil filter on your car, for example.
How often they need replacing depends on how much
you spray, the spray materials you use and whether
or not the sprayer is regularly cleaned after use. Call
1-800-9-SPRAYER or visit www.hdhudson.com to
obtain genuine Hudson® replacement parts.If you leave
your sprayer in the garage over Winter, particularly in
northern areas, the soft parts may dry out and need
servicing before you use your sprayer for the first time
in the Spring.
