The unit is partly disassembled for ease of shipment and must be completely assembled be-
fore it is used for the first time.
The only tools required for assembly are a Philips (+) screwdriver and a pair of pliers.
MOUNTING THE ELBOW
To mount the pleated elbow hose onto the body of the machine, first line the elbow up in a
position to allow for the hose to point forward. Loosen the screw that controls the crimp clamp
from the end of the elbow and slide over the body as far as it will go into the body of the
machine. Tighten the screw back to secure the crimp clamp on the body of the machine.
MOUNTING THE SPRAYING ATTACHMENT
Insert the sprayer extension tube into the end of the pleated elbow hose. Loosen the screw on
the crimp clamp at the end of the elbow to attach. To attach the spraying attachment with the
handle and trigger, position the grooves of the tube in line with the extruded guides and slide
onto the extension tube. Once this is as far as it can move rotate the spraying attachment
counter clock-wise until you can hear an audible click. Repeat these steps to attach the sprayer
nozzle onto the end of the spraying attachment.

ATTACHING THE STRAPS
To attach the carry straps to the back of the machine; hook the metal hooks onto the bottom of
the back plate, wrap the other end of the straps around the top of the back plate and loop back
through the buckles.
CONNECTING THE CHEMICAL HOSE
First slide a hose clip onto either end of both chemical hoses. Push one end of the chemical
hose onto the stub leading from the solution tank. Using a pair of pliers, open the hose clip and
slide it over the hose and stub and close the clip again. Repeat this process connecting the
other end of the hose to the stub just below the handle. Using the supplied Velcro grips that is
attached to the pleated elbow, secure the chemical hose to the pleated end of the elbow.
Repeat this process with the second tube leading from below the trigger to the sprayer nozzle.

This engine is certified to operate on unleaded petrol and with the mix ratio 50:1. Your engine
requires a mixture of gasoline and quality two-stroke engine oil with the classification TC. Use
regular unleaded gasoline with a minimum octane rating of 90 RON. If the octane number of
the regular grade gasoline in your area is lower use premium unleaded fuel.
Do not use BIA or TCW (two-stroke water cooled) mix oils.
The canister should be kept tightly closed, to avoid any moisture getting into the mixture.
The fuel tank and the canister in which fuel mix is stored should be cleaned from time to time.
Before fueling, clean the filler cap and the area around it to ensure that no dirt falls into the
tank.
Thoroughly shake the mixture in the canister before fueling your machine.
To reduce the risk of burns or other personal injury from escaping gas vapor and fumes,
remove the fuel filler cap carefully to allow any pressure build-up in the tank to release slowly.
After fueling, tighten the fuel cap as securely as possible by hand.
1. Remove fuel cap 2. Remove fuel filter
3. Fill with fuel 4. Replace filter and cap
