SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Do not inhale fog output. Highly atomized liquid droplets can
float in the air a long time and are quickly absorbed by the
lungs. Depending on the material being fogged, this could result
in serious injury or death.
Do not use to apply any liquid that is hazardous to people,
animals or property when atomized into small droplets. The
large surface area of small droplets increases their reactivity and
potential to form an explosive mixture. Be aware of potentially
dangerous interactions between liquid fog droplets and other
aspects of the treatment area.
Read the label of the chemical you plan to use, and follow the
instructions in its “Precautions” and “Directions for Use”
sections. If the label lacks this information, obtain directions for
use and safety precautions including personal protective
equipment (respirator, face mask, special clothing) from the
chemical manufacturer or distributor.
Keep an intake air filter in place during use. This will help
prevent dust and fog droplets from entering the unit.
Do not atomize a flammable liquid. Electric arcs produced
inside the motor during normal use could ignite it.
Do not fog near an open flame.
Risk of Electric Shock – Do not expose to rain. Store indoors.
Use only a properly grounded (earthed) three pin electric
outlet. The ground wire is an essential safety feature of this
product. Do not remove the grounding lug on the power cord.
Do not use an ungrounded (“3-to-2”) plug adapter.
An extension cord, if used, must have a continuous ground
wire leading to earth and an amperage rating greater than the
rated current on the fogger nameplate label. Do not chain two
extension cords together.
