Store the spray solution and sprayer
in a place secured against
unauthorized use.
Store the spray solution and sprayer
in a dry place protected from frost.
Disposal
Never dispose of residual chemicals or
contaminated rinsing solutions in
waterways, drains, sewers, street
gutters or manholes.
Dispose of residual plant protection
products and used containers in
accordance with local waste
disposal regulations.
Transporting the Unit
Always stop the engine.
Transporting in a vehicle:
Properly secure your power tool to
prevent turnover, fuel spillage and
damage.
The container must be empty and
clean.
Fueling
Always shut off the engine before
refueling.
Do not fuel a hot engine – fuel may spill
and cause a fire.
Open the fuel cap carefully to allow any
pressure build-up in the tank to release
slowly and avoid fuel spillage.
Fuel your power tool only in well-
ventilated areas. If you spill fuel, wipe
the machine immediately if fuel gets on
your clothing, change immediately.
This reduces the risk of unit vibrations
causing the fuel cap to loosen or come
off and spill quantities of fuel.
Before Starting
Check that your power tool is properly
assembled and in good condition,
especially if it has been subjected to
unusually high loads for which it was not
designed (e.g. heavy impact or a fall).
Check the fuel system for leaks,
paying special attention to visible
parts such as the tank cap, hose
connections and the manual fuel
pump (on machines so equipped). If
there are any leaks or damage, do
not start the engine – risk of fire.
Have your machine repaired by a
servicing dealer before using it
again.
The setting lever must move easily
to STOP or 0
Throttle trigger must move freely
and spring back to the idle position
when released.
Check that the spark plug boot is
secure – a loose boot may cause
arcing that could ignite combustible
fumes and cause a fire.
Check the fuel system for leaks.
Check condition and tightness of
container, hose and metering unit.
Check condition of harness straps
and replace damaged or worn
straps.
To reduce the risk of accidents, do not
operate the unit if it is not properly
assembled and in good condition.
For emergencies: Practice removing
and putting down the power tool as you
would in an emergency. To avoid
damage, do not throw the machine to
the ground when practicing.
Starting the Engine
Start the engine at least 3 meters from
the fueling spot, outdoors only.
Your power tool is designed to be
operated by one person only. Do not
allow other persons in the work area
even when starting.
Start the engine as described in the
instruction manual.
Place the power tool on level ground,
make sure you have secure footing, hold
the power tool securely.
Gasoline is an extremely
flammable fuel. Keep
clear of naked flames. Do
not spill any fuel – do not
smoke.
Check for leakage. To
reduce the risk of serious
of fatal burn injuries, do
not start or run the engine
until leak is fixed.
After fueling, tighten
down the screw-type fuel
cap as securely as
possible.
