HOW TO USE READY-TO-SPRAY CONTAINER

1. Shake container thoroughly, then attach to garden hose.
2. Turn on water supply at the source. Water pressure will build in hose since the sprayer is already in the "OFF" position.
3. To apply product, bend safety tab and turn the control valve clockwise to the "ON" position.
4. When spraying is complete, turn the control valve back (counterclockwise). Turn the water off. Disconnect hose from applicator and store product in original container.
