FAQs

What specific Spear and Jackson sprayer model does this kit fit?

This kit (15LPAPSKIT) is designed for Spear and Jackson 15-litre backpack-style pump action pressure sprayers.

How many O-rings and seals are included in this kit?

The kit contains a total of 19 pieces, including various O-rings, seals, and other essential spare parts.

Can I use this kit for other brands of sprayers?

No, this kit is specifically manufactured for Spear and Jackson 15-litre backpack models. Compatibility with other brands or sizes is not guaranteed.

Do I need special tools to replace the seals?

Basic tools like a screwdriver or pliers might be needed for disassembly, depending on your sprayer model. The kit itself does not include tools.

What kind of lubricant should I use with the new seals?

It is recommended to use a silicone-based lubricant that is compatible with the chemicals you intend to spray. Avoid petroleum-based lubricants, as they can degrade rubber seals.

My sprayer is leaking from the hose connection, is this kit the solution?

This kit primarily contains parts for the pump mechanism. While some general seals might be included, check if your sprayer's hose connection has a specific O-ring or seal that matches the parts provided in this 19-piece set.

How often should I expect to replace seals in my sprayer?

The frequency depends on usage intensity, the types of chemicals sprayed, and storage conditions. Regular inspection for leaks or pressure loss will indicate when replacement is needed.

Troubleshooting

Sprayer loses pressure quickly after replacement

Ensure all O-rings and seals are the correct size for their location and are seated properly. Check for any nicks or tears on the new seals. Re-lubricate seals if they seem dry. Double-check sprayer assembly instructions.

Leakage from the pump handle or base

The O-rings within the pump cylinder or at its base may not be correctly fitted or are the wrong size. Carefully disassemble and re-fit the appropriate O-rings from the kit, ensuring a snug fit.

Difficulty in pumping after replacing seals

The new O-rings might be too tight or lack lubrication. Apply a small amount of compatible silicone lubricant to the O-rings and the cylinder wall. Ensure the pump rod is aligned correctly.

Specific part in the kit does not seem to fit anywhere

The kit contains 19 parts, and some may be spares or for specific internal components. Consult your sprayer's parts diagram if available, or focus on the most common O-ring and seal locations first (pump, handle, valve).

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Significantly extends the operational life of the pressure sprayer.
  • Provides a more economical solution than purchasing a new sprayer.
  • Ensures the sprayer maintains optimal pressure and prevents leaks.

Cons

  • Only compatible with 15-litre backpack-style pump action sprayers.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility: This kit is specifically designed for Spear and Jackson 15-litre backpack-style pump action pressure sprayers. It is not guaranteed to fit other brands or different-sized sprayers. Always verify your sprayer model before purchasing.

Setup (Replacement):

  1. Disassemble Carefully: Following your sprayer's manual, carefully disassemble the pump and relevant sections where leaks or performance issues are observed.
  2. Identify Worn Parts: Visually inspect the existing O-rings and seals for signs of wear, cracking, or deformation.
  3. Match and Replace: Compare the removed parts with the components in the 15LPAPSKIT to find the exact match. Use the correct size and type of O-ring or seal for each specific location.
  4. Lubricate (Recommended): Apply a small amount of silicone-based lubricant (compatible with your spraying agents) to new O-rings and seals before installation to ensure a good seal and easier assembly.
  5. Reassemble: Reassemble the sprayer components, ensuring all parts are correctly seated.

Care: Store the spare parts in a clean, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures to maintain their integrity. After use, always clean your sprayer thoroughly according to the manufacturer's instructions, which can help prolong the life of both the original and replacement seals.
