I would clean it out before storing. I would also run clean water through it to get rid of chemicals. Have nothing but trouble with mine (pressure problems if you don’t clean out) and it finally died today. I used it a few weeks ago, left a tiny bit of moss killer in it and threw in garage. Took out today to continue what I was doing. Didn’t work. Opened unit up, the diaphragm pump motor was completely rusted.
To date, I have used it about 100 times and not had any issues at all. Depending how tight you adjust the fitting on the head, it can spray from a few feet to a few yards. It has been a quality tools from me.
The sprayer is good, but the nozzle could be better
I agree
Hey Jeff, great video. Was there a fan tip in the box or only an adjustable "cone" nozzle?
It only came with the cone nozzle, though the cone nozzle adjusts to spray in a fan pattern.
I just got one myself only thing that I don’t like about is the nozzle adjustment is a fan cone and not an Actual fan
Is it safe to keep chemicals in the tank when not in use? Will it leak or will the plastic tank degrade?

Do you still use this sprayer.
Yes and haven’t had any issues with it at all.
How is it holding up? How far can it spray?
