HANDLING OF CHEMICALS
Warning!
Some chemicals sprayed with your
power tool may contain toxic and/or
caustic substances. Such chemicals
can be dangerous and cause serious or
fatal injury to persons and animals
and/or severe damage to plants and the
environment.
Avoid direct contact with chemicals.
Follow the chemical manufacturer's
instructions with respect to any contact
with its product.
Warning!
Read the label each time before mixing
or using the chemical and before storing
or disposing of it. Do not trust your
memory. Careless or improper use may
cause serious or fatal injury.
Warning!
Chemicals can be harmful to individu-
als, animals and the environment if
improperly used. In addition, some
chemicals that are caustic, corrosive or
poisonous should not be used in your
mistblowers.
Carefully read the labels on chemical
containers prior to use. Chemicals are
classified into categories of toxicity.
Pesticides regulated by the EPA, for
instance, use signal words to indicate
the product's potential to make you sick.
"Caution" appears on pesticides found
to be least harmful to humans.
"Warning" indicates a product that is
more poisonous than those in the
6
"Caution" group. Pesticides with the
signal word "Danger" on the label are
very poisonous or irritating. They should
be used with extreme care. Finally,
pesticides labeled "Danger – Poison"
are for restricted use only and generally
must be used under the supervision of a
certified applicator. Each category will
have unique handling characteristics.
Familiarize yourself with the
characteristics for the category you are
using.
Chemicals may be used only by persons
trained in their handling and the
appropriate first-aid measures.
Warning!
Mix only compatible pesticides. Wrong
mixtures can produce toxic fumes.
When handling chemicals and when
spraying, make sure you are operating
in accordance with local, state, and
federal environmental protection rules
and guidelines. Do not spray in windy
conditions. To help protect the
environment, use only the
recommended dosage – do not overuse.
Pay special attention when using near
watersheds, waterway, etc.
Warning!
Do not eat, drink, or smoke while han-
dling chemicals or while you are
spraying. Never blow through nozzles,
valves, pipes or any other component
by mouth. Always handle chemicals in a
well-ventilated area while wearing
appropriate protective clothing and
safety equipment. Do not store or trans-
port chemicals together with food or
medicines, and never reuse a chemical
container for any other purpose.
Do not transfer dry or liquid chemicals to
other containers, especially food and/or
drink containers.
Warning!
In case of accidental contact or inges-
tion of chemicals or in case of
contamination of clothing, stop work and
immediately consult the chemical man-
ufacturer's instructions. If in doubt as to
what to do, consult a poison control
center or doctor without delay. Have the
product's label available to read to or
show the persons you consult.
Clean all chemical spills immediately.
Dispose of any residue in accordance
with state or federal laws and
regulations.
Warning!
Keep chemicals out of reach of children,
other unauthorized people and animals.
When not in use, store chemicals in a
safe place. Follow the manufacturer's
recommendations for proper storage.
