Care of Protective Clothing
Protective clothing should be properly cared for. Rinse heavily contaminated clothes in the
open before washing in the laundry. Wash and dry these clothes every day and keep them
separate from other washing.
Respirators need special care. Clean the respirator after spraying. Use soapy water then
rinse and allow to dry completely before storing in a clean plastic bag. Replace canisters in
respirator after eight hours use. Never store used canisters with the respirator.
The minimum requirements for personal safety are that the operator avoids spray
inhalation and does not allow chemicals or spray mixture to contaminate the eyes or
skin.
General Guidance
Do Spray:
Only after reading this instruction manual carefully and following the advice given.
With pump pressures as low as possible consistent with chemical container label
conditions and nozzle type.
With nozzles that reduce spray drift to a minimum.
With booms as close to the ground as practicable.
With less than a 5km wind.
Using the correct personal protective equipment specified on the label of the chemical
container.
Don’t Spray:
With booms higher than is necessary, and no more than about one metre above the
ground.
In a figure eight or a similar pattern.
Unless you have been trained to spray using an UTV or RTV.
Holding the spray lance while driving the UTV.
In winds higher than 5km.
Care and Maintenance
Always fill the sprayer from a clean water source. The line strainer should be checked and
cleaned if necessary each time the tank is filled. Appropriate protective equipment should
be used whenever maintenance is carried out.
Cleaning
Clean the sprayer regularly! After each use, flush the unit out three times with fresh water.
Use a neutralizing agent for the second rinse.
CAUTION
To prevent damage to the sprayer and spray gun, drain the water from the sprayer and
spray gun when there is a risk of frost.
