NOTE: The air filter in the filter housing on
the side of the head must be checked and
cleaned periodically, more often if used
under very dusty conditions or when a
great deal of fog from spraying is allowed
to circulate near unit.
IMPORTANT: Unit should be located as
far from spraying area as hose will allow
to prevent over-spray from clogging filter.

rotate filter cover so the holes line up with
clean element material and snap cover
onto housing. If filter element has no
clean areas, replace element or entire
filter.
