SAFETY PRECAUTIONS WARNING: Failure to read and follow all safety warnings and all instructions may result in electric shock, fire and serious injury. Save all warnings and instructions for future reference. The term "power tool" in the warnings refers to your battery-operated (cordless) power tool. WORK AREA SAFETY a) Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents. b) Do not operate power tools in explosive atmosphere, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes. c) Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control. ELECTRICAL SAFETY a) Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools. b) Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces, such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded. c) Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock. d) Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts.Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock. e) If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a residual current device (RCD) protected supply. Use of an RCD reduces the risk of electric shock.
Personal safety a) Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a powertool. Do not use a power tool while you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury. b) Use personal protective equipment.Always wear eye protection. Protective equipment such as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries. c) Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the off-position before connecting to power source and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying the tool. Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or energising power tools that have the switch on invites accidents. d) Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury. e) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations. f) Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can be caught in moving parts. Service a) Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using only identical replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.

INTRODUCTION AND INSTALLATION Before using you must charge the battery (during storage it may have lost part of its load). To do this, plug the charger into a power outlet and connect it to the battery, the battery must be disconnected from the sprayer. Note that the charger indicator is green when it is plugged into the power outlet, and turns red when the battery has begun charging. When the battery is fully charged the indicator changes from red to green. The operating temperature range of the sprayer is 33ºF to 122ºF. Follow these steps to put together your backpack sprayer: 1. Install the wand holder onto the sprayer tank
2. Insert the battery pack in its housing, to do this you open the door at the back of the sprayer and insert it into the correct position until the lever lock/unlock is locked. 3. Remove the cap and, using the load filter, pour the liquid in the tank. Replace the cap and tighten securely. 4. Place the sprayer on an elevated surface, ensure that the straps are firmly attached to the tank and pull straps on your shoulders. 5. To start working with the model GS18AS-15 (2 speeds), determine if you want to set the pressure to low or high. Low speed (low pressure) Press the button down LED light changes to green when in use High speed (high pressure) Press the button up LED light changes to green when in use To turn the sprayer off set the switch to the middle position

MAINTENANCE TANK Clean the sprayer after each use with clean water. Empty the tank completely. Never leave the sprayer products stored in the tank, hose or pump. FILTERS This machine has the following filters: Filling tank filter Output tank filter is located the inside the sprayer at the bottom of the tank and it can be removed for cleaning. After cleaning, reassemble into the housing in the same way and position. Nozzle filter located within the spray nozzle. Proper filter maintenance is the best guarantee for a smooth operation of your sprayer. Clean these filters regularly and replace if damaged. NOZZLES The sprayer is supplied with quality nozzles. The performance of this equipment may be diminished if using a nozzle with excessive wear or if using a nozzle not recommended. LOW BATTERY LIGHT The charge status indicator is located next to the speed control switch. A Green light indicates that the state of the battery charge is adequate. When the light flashes red it means that the battery is discharged and in a few minutes the sprayer will stop working, requiring the battery to be charged or replaced with a charged battery RECHARGE AND BATTERY MAINTENANCE To recharge the battery, remove the battery from its release toggled and moving up the battery, then connect the charger to a power outlet. Then connect the plug to the battery, the light on the charger will change from green to red, indicating that the recharging process has begun. The approximate time for recharging is 4-5 hours (depending on the level of discharge of the battery). After the battery has finished charging, remove the connector from battery and then remove the battery charger from the power outlet.

IT IS RECOMMENDED TO RECHARGE THE BATTERY AFTER EACH WORKING DAY. Never recharge the battery in extreme temperatures, the charging temperature range is 32ºF to 104ºF. It is normal for the charger to warm up slightly during charging (red light). For extended periods of inactivity, you should remove the battery from the sprayer and store at half load in a dry and stable temperature (ideal range of 41ºF to 59ºF), Use only the charger supplied with this equipment, connected to a power socket AC standard (1 00/240 volts, 50-60 Hz). In the charger, the light indicator has the following meaning: STATUS light
CHARGER READ TO CHARGE green light
BATTERY IS CURRENTLY CHARGING red light
CHARGE COMPLETE green light
CONNECT THE CHARGER ONLY IN INDOORS, IN DRY PLACES & AWAY FROM CHILDREN. DO NOT USE THE CHARGER IN EXPLOSIVE ENVIRONMENTS. DO NOT LEAVE THE SPRAYER OUTDOORS WITH TEMPERAURES BELOW ZERO. DO NOT OPEN THE BATTERY OR KEEP NEAR ANY HEAT SOURCES. LEAVE WASTED BATTERIES IN AN AUTHORIZED PLACE.

MOTOR & PUMP The motor, the pump and the pressure switch are sensitive items subject to wear, they are integrated into a single module and need preventive maintenance to extend the lifespan. To keep the pump head in proper operating condition after each application, run the sprayer with clean water in open circuit for a few minutes. Never leave the pump with chemical inside over 8 hours, these products may cause clogging and cause the sprayer to malfunction . To preserve the engine, do not put it in any kind of liquid and protect it from moisture as far as possible.
SECURITY CONSIDERATIONS Always use appropriate protective equipment. Do not eat, drink or smoke while handling these products and avoid direct contact with skin. Restrict the use of this machine to qualified personnel. Read very Carefully the instructions of products employed. For the preparation of the mixtures, use accurate containers. After application & working, clean the sprayer with clean water. Wash hands and face and change clothes. Observe good agricultural practices, avoiding dealing with wind or elevated temperature. Keep children, bystanders, animals, etc. In a prudent distance. In case of poisoning, do not leave the affected person alone. Flush with much water affected areas and remove contaminated clothing.
