Filling the tank
1.
Make sure that the draining lever and nozzle
lever are closed.

Before using the mist blower with chemicals,
fill the tank with fresh water to assure that
you have assembled it properly and practice
spraying. Also, check for any leaks at this
time. When thoroughly familiar with the mist
blower operation, follow normal operating
procedures.

Fill the tank in well-ventilated areas or
outdoors.

5.
Do not use caustic or corrosive materials in
the mist blower, which could result in damage
to the machine.
6.
Do not use liquid with temperature exceeds 50
°C (122 °F) to reduce the risk of scalding and
damage to the machine.
7.
To fill the tank, place the mist blower on a level
surface. To reduce the risk of contaminating
the surrounding environment, be careful not to
overfill the tank with chemical solution.

To reduce the risk of injury, do not fill the tank
while wearing the machine on your back.

If you fill the solution container with a hose
attached to a central water supply, be sure the
