Starting up the mist blower
●
Please make sure that there are no children or other people within a working range
of 20 meters (66 feet) (6), also pay attention to any animals in the working vicinity.
Never use the mist blower in urban areas.
●
Before operating, always check that the mist blower is safe for operation:
Check the security of the throttle trigger. The throttle trigger should be checked for
smooth and easy action. Check for proper functioning of the throttle trigger lock.
Check for clean and dry handles and test the function of the l-O switch. Keep
handles free of oil and fuel.
●
To reduce the risk of leakage and skin contact with chemicals, check that the
container cap and all connections in the path of the spray are tight, and be sure
the hose is securely attached and in good condition. Keep the solution discharge
lever closed.
●
Make sure that the solution discharge lever is closed before starting the machine.
●
Check that the spark plug cap is securely mounted on the spark plug – a loose
plug cap may cause arcing that could ignite combustible fumes and cause a fire.
●
Check condition of harness straps and replace damaged or worn straps.
●
Adjust shoulder strap to suit your size before starting work.
In an emergency, you may slip out of the shoulder strap and throw off the machine
quickly. Practice slipping out of the harness a number of times before using the
machine in order to become accustomed to it. Do not throw off the machine while
practicing as it could damage the machine.
●
When you pull the starter handle, do not wrap the starter rope around your hand.
Do not let the starter handle snap back, but guide the starter rope to rewind it
properly.
Failure to follow this procedure may result in injury to your hand or fingers and may
damage the starter mechanism.
●
The assistance of another person may be needed in placing the mist blower on
your back after starting. In order to reduce the risk of injury to the assistant from
thrown objects, chemical spray/liquid or from contact with hot exhaust fumes, keep
the engine at idle speed during this brief period, and do not let your assistant stand
in the area of the outlet nozzle or exhaust. Otherwise, the mist blower should be
started and operated without assistance.
●
Start the mist blower only in accordance with the instructions.
●
Do not use any other methods for starting the engine (7)!
●
Use the mist blower and the accessories supplied only for applications specified.
●
Start the mist blower engine only after the entire machine has been assembled.
Operation of the machine is permitted only after all the appropriate accessories
are attached.
●
The engine is to be switched off immediately if there are any engine problems.
●
Use the mist blower for single-handed operation with the right hand on the control
handle. Carry as a backpack with the shoulder straps over both shoulders.
To reduce the risk of loss of control, never carry the mist blower with the strap(s)
over one shoulder.
●
When working with the mist blower, always wrap your fingers tightly around the
handle, keeping the control handle cradled between your thumb and forefinger.
Keep your hand in this position to have your machine under control at all times.
Make sure your control handle is in good condition and free of moisture, pitch, oil
or grease.
●
Always ensure a safe, well-balanced footing.
●
In order to keep the solution tank upright and reduce the risk of spillage, do not
bend at the waist. Bend only at the knees and support yourself as required to
ensure proper balance.
Remember that a mist blower filled with liquid has a significant amount of weight.
Use extra caution when bending, leaning or walking.
●
Operate the mist blower in such a manner as to avoid inhalation of the exhaust
gases. Never run the engine in enclosed rooms (risk of suffocation and gas
poisoning). Carbon monoxide is an odorless gas.
Always ensure there is adequate ventilation.
●
Your mist blower is not insulated against electric shock. To reduce the risk of
electrocution, never operate this mist blower in the vicinity of any wires or cables
(power, etc.) which may be carrying electric current. Do not spray on or near
electrical installations.
