Roundup Garden Sprayer

About Roundup Garden Sprayers

• The Roundup Garden Sprayer comes in three sizes: 1, 2 and 3 gallons. The plastic tank is white and semi-transparent to allow you to see how full the tank is. A screw-on cap incorporates the hand-pumping mechanism that pressurizes the tank. The pressure in the tank forces its contents through the hose and spray nozzle. A trigger on the spray nozzles allows you to control the direction and amount of spray. The adjustable nozzle can spray in a fan pattern or a stream.

Uses

• This multifunctional garden sprayer can disperse a variety of liquid products, including liquid fertilizers, insecticides and other chemicals used in the garden. Other uses around the home include applying detergents and cleaners to large areas before pressure washing. Aside from garden and cleaning projects, you can also use the sprayer to apply water proofers and sealers to decks, fences and concrete patios and paths.

Maintenance

• Proper care and maintenance for a Roundup Garden Sprayer will keep it functioning like new and extend its life. Never leave unused chemicals, fertilizers or other liquids in the sprayer. Rinse the sprayer tank, hose and pumping mechanism thoroughly after each use. Fill the tank with clean water, pump to pressurize and disperse the clean water to rinse the hose, trigger and nozzle mechanism. Follow the manufacturers recommended procedures for pump lubrication and care.

Warnings

• Always be extremely careful when mixing solutions in a garden sprayer. Follow the manufacturer's instructions and warnings carefully for proper mixing methods and ratios. Never mix or use flammable solutions in a garden sprayer. Wear protective eyewear and gloves when spraying chemicals, pesticides and fertilizers. Avoid over-pumping the sprayer to prevent damage and possible injury. Release all pressure from the sprayer before removing the cap.
