MIXTURE PREPARATION SAFETY
WARNING:
- Always wear protections to prevent poisoning, avoiding any contact of hands, face and body with the mixture,
both in preparation and during treatment. Always wear mask, gloves, goggles and overalls or long apron.
- Make sure they are washed every time.
- Never smoke during refuelling, mixture reparation, treatment.
- Apply the spraying preferably in the morning and evening, avoiding the hours of greatest heat and wind.
- Mixtures are always toxic and dangerous.
Handle them with extreme care and caution.
- Never handle mixtures or dissolve them manually.
- Completely empty and thoroughly wash the packages of the mixtures.
Then bring them to the appropriate collection centres.
- Never leave mixtures or other chemicals in areas within the reach of children or unauthorised persons.
- During the preparation of the doses and the mixture, it is necessary to be cautious:
- Do not insert objects into the containers of mixtures, nor in the machine tank.
- Do not put your arms or hands in the Tank, even when protected by gloves. It is a significant danger.
- Never enter the tank for any reason. Never insert your head into it. There is serious risk of poisoning.
- Exert extreme caution when cleaning filters, nozzles or other parts of the spraying circuit.
- Do not blow the nozzles to unblock them. Use a brush or compressed air.
- In the case of nozzles with anti-drip, release pressure from the circuit before intervening.
- Work on the nozzles only with the fan stopped. Discharge the residual pressure by opening the delivery valves
before intervening!
- If a hose looks even slightly damaged, replace it immediately!
- Always adjust the pump for the recommended minimum pressure values. Never exceed the recommended
pressures.
- Do not tamper with the pressure regulator to try to get higher pressures.
- During spraying, especially in windy conditions, make sure that the spray does not reach people, animals,
houses or roads, to avoid any risk of environmental pollution and poisoning or damage to third parties.
- After every working day, do not leave mixture residues in the atomizer tank: it may cause damage to different
parts of the machine and could be harmful to others.
- When washing and rinsing the atomizer, exercise extreme caution with pesticide residues: they are very
poisonous and are environmental contaminants.
- Do not discharge the tank mixture residues on the ground or into drains or in other places. Dilute them using
the washing circuit function provided and distribute the mixture spraying it normally.
- Always work away from watercourses, ditches and areas frequented by people and animals.
- In case of water collection from streams or other public sources, make sure not to cause chemical mixture
reflux. This is harmful for the environment and is punishable by the law.
- Do not eat, drink or smoke during the preparation of the doses and mixtures nor during the treatment.
- After spraying, wash your hands thoroughly and change clothes before touching food, drink or people.
- WASH THE CIRCUIT BEFORE ANY MAINTENANCE.
Including suction filter cleaning.
- In the event of contamination or contact with a pesticide, immediately wash the affected area vigorously
using the Clean Water tap from the appropriate tank.
- In severe cases, seek immediate medical attention, always providing a container of the contaminating
pesticide (empty and washed), to enable the physician to quickly identify an effective antidote.
- Carefully read the labels of the products that are used for the treatments and strictly follow the doses,
warnings and methods of use.
- Always comply with the regulations in force in the country where the machine is being used for the use,
preparation and storage of the treatment products.
DANGER: When the replenishing of fuel is carried out, avoid spillages (there is a danger of fire).
If fuel is poured out accidentally clean the smeared zone accurately.
The fuel is a highly inflammable liquid so do not use naked flames and do not smoke during the refuelling,
moreover hold the gun or the jerry can of replenishing touching the hole in order to avoid sparks.
When replenishing the fuel use protective garments. Always have an extinguisher to hand when refuelling is
carried out.
