these instructions must be followed carefully.

who cannot read and understand the signs, decals, or
operating instructions.
8. This equipment shall not be operated by individuals under
the influence of alcohol or drugs.
9. Before towing, check the hitch and secure the safety chain
to the towing vehicle. Also check for proper tire pressure.
10. Tow only with a vehicle and hitch rated to pull a 2200 lb.
load.
11. If pump is equipped with ball hitch coupler, use only a 2” all
steel ball rated for a minimum of 5000 lbs. Use a 1” hardened
steel pull pin, if the pump is equipped with a pin hitch.
12. Before start-up, check the hopper and remove all
obstructions.
13. Keep all hands out of the hopper when the engine is
running.
14. The engine must be turned off before performing any
service operations.
15. Do not operate the pump with the hood open.
16. Replace any worn or damaged pump components
immediately.
17. Do not use worn out hoses or couplings; inspect daily.
18. Do not disconnect the hose couplings or nozzle while they
are under pressure. Relieve the pressure by manually
swinging the clamp arm latch handle to the first open position
at the exhaust cone outlet.
19. Never fill the fuel tank while the engine is running or hot;
avoid the possibility of spilled fuel causing a fire.
20. Always carry a fire extinguisher of adequate size and a
first aid kit.
21. Always wear safety glasses when spraying material.
22. The unit should not be towed in excess of 45 MPH (or less
depending on road conditions).
23. Pull the tail light switch “ON” for night towing.
24. Do not tow the pump with the hopper full of material.
25. Do not tow the pump with the hoses attached.
CAUTION
If hoses or lines are blocked for any reason,
or if the lines are kinked when starting up or
during the pumping cycle, the pump pressure
could straighten out the kink or force out the
blockage. This rapid surge of material could cause the lines to
whip or move in a manner that could cause injury to personnel.
Inspect the lines at all times to prevent the above
conditions.
