very poisonous or irritating. They should 
be used with extreme care. Finally, 
pesticides labeled "Danger – Poison" 
are for restricted use only and generally 
must be used under the supervision of a 
certified applicator.
Similarly, the EPA rates herbicides with 
the signal words "Caution", "Warning" 
and "Danger." Each category will have 
unique handling characteristics. 
Familiarize yourself with the 
characteristics for the category you are 
using.
WARNING
Mix only compatible pesticides and/or 
herbicides. Wrong mixtures can produce 
toxic fumes.
When handling chemicals and when 
spraying, make sure you are operating 
in accordance with local, state, and 
federal environmental protection rules 
and guidelines. Do not spray in windy 
conditions. To help protect the 
environment, use only the 
recommended dosage – do not overuse.
WARNING
Do not eat, drink, or smoke while 
handling chemicals or while you are 
spraying. Never blow through nozzles, 
valves, pipes or any other component by 
mouth. Always handle chemicals in a 
well-ventilated area while wearing 
appropriate protective clothing and 
safety equipment. Do not store or 
transport chemicals with food or 
medicines, and never reuse a chemical 
container for any other purpose.
Do not transfer spray materials to other 
containers, especially food and/or drink 
containers.
WARNING
In case of accidental contact or ingestion 
of chemicals or in case of contamination 
of clothing, stop work and immediately 
consult the chemical manufacturer’s 
instructions. If in doubt as to what to do, 
consult a poison control center or doctor 
immediately. Have the product’s label 
available to read to or show the persons 
you consult.
Clean all chemical spills immediately. 
Dispose of any residue in accordance 
with state or federal laws and 
regulations.
WARNING
Keep chemicals out of reach of children, 
other unauthorized people or animals. 
When not in use, store chemicals in a 
safe place. Follow the manufacturer’s 
recommendations for proper storage.
THE USE OF THE SPRAYER
Transporting the Sprayer
Empty container when transporting it in 
a vehicle; properly secure it to prevent 
damage to the unit.
Filling the Container
Before using the sprayer with chemicals, 
fill it with fresh water to assure that you 
have it properly assembled; pressurize it 
and practice spraying. Also, check for 
any leaks at this time. When thoroughly 
familiar with the sprayer operation, drain 
the water and follow normal operating 
procedures.
Fill your sprayer in well-ventilated areas, 
outdoors.
WARNING
Do not use:
– flammable substances/materials in 
the sprayer, which can explode 
causing serious or fatal injury;
– caustic or corrosive materials in the 
sprayer, which could result in 
damage to the unit and serious or 
fatal injuries;
– liquids with a temperature above 
30 °C (86 °F) to avoid scalding and 
damage to the unit. Do not leave 
pressurized sprayer in the hot sun 
or near any heat source.
To fill the sprayer, place it on a level 
surface. To reduce the risk of 
contaminating the surrounding 
environment, be careful not to overfill the 
container with chemical solution.
If you fill the container with a hose 
attached to a central water supply, be 
sure the end of the hose is out of the 
solution to reduce the risk of backflow, 
i.e. the chemicals being sucked into the 
water supply in the case of a sudden 
vacuum.
Calculate the correct amount of 
chemical solution so that it is used up at 
one time, with no extra solution left in the 
container.
