7. To Use Special Valve to Pressurize Sprayer
To pressurize sprayer by using the special valve first remove plastic
cap from the tire valve stem. Pressurize the sprayer by using a
standard air chuck connected to an air compressor as you would
inflating a tire on a car. After pressurizing the sprayer replace
plastic cap on the tire valve to avoid getting dirt in the valve.
