Test with a container of water to check for leak-free transfer before using chemicals. 

Are the orange umbrella valves and white teeth in place and clean?

Are hoses connected tightly and leak free?

Is suction open to the tank and drawing from Cleanload Nexus?

Are Containers securely fitted with easyconnect caps?

Is a clean water supply connected?

Is mounting secure and does the handle turn easily?

Maintenance

after use - CLEAN IT!

The simplest thing you can do to ensure long life and trouble free operation for your Cleanload Nexus is to kept it clean! 

After filling the sprayer discharge one final container of water (or suitable cleaning agent) and rinse it though, this removes any trapped residue in the coupler.

Refit the Top Cover to protect from dirt and dust when not in use and run antifreeze through and then drain upside down for 48 hours before storing over winter.

For full details of these procedures, follow the operating manual.
