Tools Needed

To use the Actisol Compact Portable Aerosol Unit 18" Wand, all you will need is an insecticide of your choice to load into the tank.

How To Use

Step 1: After unloading the Actisol Compact Unit, fill the tank with water, and follow the label directions of the insecticide concentrate to mix the solution. Check the instruction manual for additional details.

Step 2: Turn on the unit by plugging it into an electrical outlet and switch on the power to pressurize the tank. Purge air bubbles from the system to prevent the cutoff of insecticide flow by turning off the unit and point the applicator tip into the container of your selected insecticide and pull the trigger until a pin stream flows for approximately 30 seconds. Then switch the unit back on to begin use.

Step 3: Adjust the pressure regulator knob found on top of the cabinet on the compact unit. Adjust by lifting the plastic lock ring and turning the knob clockwise to increase pressure to desired levels. The normal operating pressure for the unit is 15 PSI.

Step 4: Attack insects in deep harborages by placing the applicator tip against the area to be treated and depress the trigger to apply insecticide. Release the trigger to allow the units constant airflow to push the insecticide particles deep into crevices where insects hide.
