1. Using four of the supplied bolts and nuts (items 1 & 2), attach the two Upright Attaching Brackets (item 3) to a mounting bracket assembly (sold separately Chapin P/N 6330), or to existing ATV/UTV rack.
2. Using two of the supplied bolts and nuts (items 1 & 2), attach the Horizontal Boom Frame (item 4) to the two Upright Attaching Brackets (item 3). Depending on the height one wishes to set the boom to, use one of the top three holes of the Upright Attaching Brackets. Recommended nozzle height is 12-24 inches from the ground.
3. Thread the Swivel Nut (item 5) to the water source.

**Note: with the blue stock nozzle it is recommended to not use boom assembly with a system of less than 1.7 GPM and no less than 1.0gpm with the green nozzle.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

Using the boom nozzles

1. Choose the nozzle best equipped for the application at hand. See Nozzle Flow Chart for flow rates and spray angle.
2. While spraying water only raise or lower the boom to acquire the desired coverage. If you see dry spots while spraying you need to raise the boom; too much solution in the pattern areas means you need to lower the boom. Generally, the proper height will be from 13 to 18 inches off the ground.
3. Reference the product you're spraying for desired mix ratio.

CLEANING & STORAGE

Most spray materials are highly corrosive. The most important aspect of long dependable service from the sprayer is a thorough cleaning immediately following each use. In addition, the residue of one type of chemical could cause an undesirable effect when a different chemical is used for a different purpose.

The most effective cleaning method is to pump several rinses of clean water through the tank, pump, hoses, boom, spray gun, etc. A neutralizing agent such as a solution of Nutra-Sol, a detergent or household ammonia as recommended by the chemical manufacturer can assist in removal of a persistent chemical. When the system is thoroughly cleaned, drain the tank, suction line, pump hoses, etc.

The following steps should be followed for the maintenance and storage of your sprayer.

1. Wash and flush out sprayer after completion of each phase of your program. Flush out sprayer when changing chemicals. Use of a detergent is advisable if the chemical manufacturer does not make specific cleaning recommendations. Flush system completely, including nozzles. Never use metal objects to open clogged nozzles.

2. Clean sprayer thoroughly before storing at the end of the spraying season. Permanent type anti-freeze added to the final rinse will leave a rust inhibiting film in parts of the sprayer.
