appropriate protective equipment.
Before using any pesticide or other spray materials
in this sprayer, read the label on its original container
thoroughly and follow its directions.
Some spray
materials are dangerous and should not be used in this
sprayer, as they can damage the sprayer and cause
serious bodily injury or property damage.
Electric shock hazard.
Never spray toward electrical
outlets.
Do not use commercial grade chemicals or
chemicals for commercial or industrial purposes.
Use only consumer grade water-based lawn and garden
chemicals.

inside and outside of the sprayer and examine the
components before each use. Check for cracked
and deteriorated hoses, leaks, clogged nozzles,
and missing or damaged parts. If damaged, have
the product repaired before use.
Many accidents are
caused by poorly maintained products.
Disconnect the battery from the unit before draining,
cleaning, or storing the sprayer.

are NOT safety glasses. Following this rule will reduce
the risk of eye injury.
Protect your lungs. Wear a face or dust mask when
using the sprayer.

of serious personal injury.
Battery tools do not have to be plugged into an
electrical outlet; therefore, they are always in
operating condition. Be aware of possible hazards
when not using your battery tool or when changing
accessories.
Following this rule will reduce the risk of
electric shock, fire, or serious personal injury.
Do not place battery tools or their batteries near fire
or heat.
This will reduce the risk of explosion and possibly
injury.
Do not crush, drop or damage battery pack. Do not
use a battery pack or charger that has been dropped
or received a sharp blow.
A damaged battery is subject
to explosion. Properly dispose of a dropped or damaged
battery immediately.
Batteries vent hydrogen gas and can explode in the
presence of a source of ignition, such as a pilot light.
To reduce the risk of serious personal injury, never use
any cordless product in the presence of open flame. An
exploded battery can propel debris and chemicals. If
exposed, flush with water immediately.
Do not charge battery tool in a damp or wet
location.
Following this rule will reduce the risk of electric
shock.
For best results, your battery tool should be charged
in a location where the temperature is more than
50°F but less than 100°F.
To reduce the risk of serious
personal injury, do not store outside or in vehicles.
Under extreme usage or temperature conditions,
battery leakage may occur. If liquid comes in contact
with your skin, wash immediately with soap and water,
then neutralize with lemon juice or vinegar. If liquid
gets into your eyes, flush them with clean water for
at least 10 minutes, then seek immediate medical
attention.
Following this rule will reduce the risk of
serious personal injury.
If the power supply cord is damaged,
it must be replaced
only by the manufacturer or by an authorized service
center to avoid risk.
