PRECAUTIONS WHEN REFILLING CHEMICALS
• Before filling the tank with chemicals, please make sure that the spray lever is completely at rest.
• After chemical refilling, firmly tighten the tank cap. If not fully tightened the cap may become
loose during spraying, with the risk of physical exposure to the chemicals.
PRECAUTION WHEN STARTING THE ENGINE
• Please keep children, animals, etc. well away when starting the engine and spraying.
PRECAUTIONS WHEN SPRAYING
• Since protective clothing generally offers poor ventilation and thus places stress on the body,
there is a risk of contracting heatstroke or other illness when operating for long periods under
high temperatures. Please avoid spraying on hot days, aiming instead for early morning and
late afternoon times when temperatures are relatively cool and winds are low.
• When starting work, please pay all due consideration to the spraying time, wind direction, etc.,
to ensure that no noise disturbance or chemical hazard is caused to nearby residents, passers-
by, farm crops, and so on.
• While spraying please hold the grip firmly at all times and be careful not to point the nozzle in
the direction of people or animals.
• While spraying please be careful of the wind direction and always stand on the upwind side,
to avoid spraying yourself with chemicals.
• Should you begin to feel even slightly unwell while spraying, consult a doctor immediately.
When doing so, inform the doctor of the name of the chemical you were using, the conditions
of use, etc.
• If the sprayer is tilted the chemical may leak out through the air holes in the cap. When spraying
always make sure you have a firm footing and maintain your balance.
• Do not touch the spark plugs or plug cords while the engine is running, as you may get an
electric shock.
• Do not touch the muffler, spark plugs, or other metal parts with your bare hands while the
engine is running or immediately after stopping the engine, as there is the risk of burns due to
high temperatures.
