 on a sled or on wheels. 



Twin-cylinder Hand Sprayer. The twin-cylinder hand 

 sprayer is decidedly the most satisfactory hand pump. By 

 the use of the two cylinders, a balance of power is obtained, 

 which ensures an even flow to the air chamber, which is not

The working parts of this pump are usually made of brass. 

 The construction is strong, compact and convenient. 



The pump is operated by a handle which is removable, and 

 can be used in either a vertical or a horizontal position. 



The double-cylinder pump is a very efficient sprayer. It is

 This pump is usually mounted on a wagon or a sled. The 

 vessel holding the spray material may be either a tank, or
