Turning off the Fogger
When you have fi nished fogging:
1. Push the trigger lock to the right to lock the trigger.
2. Allow the Insecticide already in the coil to completely fog out. This will take 1 to 2 minutes.
3. When the fog being emitted becomes sporadic, shut off the propane gas by turning the fuel
valve clockwise. DO NOT OVER TIGHTEN THE FUEL VALVE. Your fogger will continue to burn for
a short while (1 - 2 minutes) after the valve is turned off . Over tightening will cause serious
damage to your fogger.
4. Let the fogger cool off before storing.
Operating Fogger Procedures
1
. For a proper dry fog, pump trigger at 3 to 4 second intervals. Too frequent pumping will result
in a wet fog.
2. If a fl ame appears at the end of the nozzle, stop pumping immediately. Turn propane valve off .
Place fogger on a stable, non-fl ammable surface. Flame will stop after excess insecticide is
eliminated.
3.
CAUTION:
The shroud will become very hot while in operation. Do not let it come into contact
with skin, clothing or any combustible material. Always operate your fogger with the barrel
level with the ground. Pointing your fogger down may allow liquid propane to plug the torch,
cause a fl are up, or uncontrolled burn.
NOTE:
Black Flag® Fogging Insecticide Formula 2 is temperature sensitive and may lose
eff ectiveness if overheated. Properly heated Black Flag® Fogging Insecticide Formula 2 will
produce a white tinted fog. Overheated Black Flag® Fogging Insecticide Formula 2 will produce
a fog with a brown or yellow tint. If the insecticide overheats, increase the rate of pumping until
the insecticide cools off . Over pumping will produce liquid at the nozzle.
Fuel Cylinders for the Fogger
1. The fogger is fueled by any standard propane gas cylinder. Each cylinder will provide
approximately 2½ hours of continuous fogging.
2. You can purchase additional propane cylinders at most hardware, discount and sporting
goods stores.
3. We recommend the use of the 14.1 oz., tall style propane cylinder (3" diameter X 10.5"
long). The use of the shorter, 16 oz. lantern cylinders may cause a fl are up or uncontrolled
burn.
4. Most fuel cylinders come with a protective cap over the gas outlet. Replace this cap when
you store the fuel cylinder. Before storage or use, make sure the fuel outlet is clean and free
of debris.
