General Power Tool Safety
Warnings
WARNING Read all safety warnings and all
instructions. Failure to follow the warnings and
instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or
serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for
future reference.
GEB044-3
SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES
DO NOT let comfort or familiarity with product
(gained from repeated use) replace strict adherence
to garden sprayer safety rules. If you use this tool
unsafely or incorrectly, you can suffer serious
personal injury.
Safety Warnings for Spraying Operation:
1. Do not use the sprayer for any other purpose
than spraying agricultural and horticultural
chemicals for pest and weed control.
2. Concerning the use of chemical sprays, be
sure to thoroughly read the chemical
instructions, in order to become fully
acquainted with toxicities and usage methods.
3. If chemical comes into contact with skin,
immediately wash thoroughly with soap.
4. Firmly close chemical tank lid to prevent
leaking.
5. Never transfer chemical to another container.
6. Always thoroughly wash empty chemical
containers when mixing spray liquid and then
follow chemical manufacturer’s instructions to
correctly dispose of containers at all times.
7. Before using the sprayer, be sure to check
there are no abnormalities, such as
displacement of packing from connector,
looseness of screws, missing components,
and/or cracked/worn/damaged hose.
Using an incomplete sprayer may cause an
accident and/or injury.
8. People not involved in spraying should refrain
from approaching the worksite during
spraying.
9. When transporting a chemical-loaded sprayer
by vehicle, there is a risk of leaking, so always
firmly tighten the chemical tank lid, and secure
the sprayer in an upright position.
10. Never use items such as strongly acidic
chemicals, paints, thinners, gasoline or
benzene with the sprayer, as there is a danger
of burns or fire.
11. Be sure to select the appropriate chemical
(taking into consideration usage method and
effectiveness) to deal with the pest or weed in
question.
12. An inappropriately mixed chemical may harm
humans as well as damage crops/plants.
When mixing chemical, thoroughly read
chemical instructions, and dilute chemical
correctly prior to use.
13. Always mix chemical before loading it into
tank.
14. To prevent inhalation and/or contact with
chemical, be sure to wear safety clothing (hat,
protective goggles, protective mask, rubber
gloves, long-sleeved pest-control jacket, long
trousers and gumboots), so that skin is not
exposed when spraying.
15. Always load the tank with chemical or clean
water when operating the sprayer, as
operating the sprayer with an empty tank may
damage the pump.
16. If the sprayer stops running, or an abnormal
sound is emitted, immediately switch OFF the
sprayer, and discontinue use.
17. Constantly be aware of wind direction while
spraying, to ensure spraying from upwind to
downwind, in order to prevent direct chemical
contact with body. Also, be careful to keep
chemical from reaching surroundings, and
stop using the sprayer when the wind is
strong.
18. As there is a risk of chemical poisoning when
spraying in a greenhouse, always ventilate
while spraying.
19. Avoid spraying when atmospheric
temperature is high.
20. Avoid prolonged operation of sprayer.
Whenever possible, rotate operators.
21. If even a slight headache or dizziness, etc.,
occurs, stop spraying work immediately, and
consult a doctor. Moreover, be sure to clearly
inform the doctor of the name of the
agrochemical being used, and the operating
circumstances.

22. In cases where spray status deteriorates and
nozzle needs cleaning, there is a risk of the
chemical liquid coming into contact with the
face, so be sure to switch OFF the sprayer,
and then remove the nozzle to clean.
23. Be sure to dispose of wastewater generated
from washing used containers and chemical
tank appropriately in a location where it will
not flow into rivers and streams and/or
contaminate groundwater.
24. After spraying, if chemical remains in the
chemical tank, spray hose, spray pipe and
nozzle, it may cause spray injury. Be sure to
fully wash away residual chemical with clean
water - in particular, after spraying with
herbicide.
25. Keep agrochemicals away from children. Be
sure to store residual chemicals in
chemical-designated storage containers.
26. After completion of spraying, be sure to wash
(spray wash) equipment with clean water,
drain off the washing water, and store indoors
away from direct sunlight and freezing
temperatures, and out of reach of children.
27. After completion of spraying, be sure to
thoroughly wash entire body with soap, rinse
eyes, and gargle. During spraying period,
change clothes daily.

WARNING:
MISUSE or failure to follow the safety rules stated in
this instruction manual may cause serious personal
injury.

IMPORTANT SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS
FOR BATTERY CARTRIDGE
1. Before using battery cartridge, read all
instructions and cautionary markings on (1)
battery charger, (2) battery, and (3) product
using battery.
2. Do not disassemble battery cartridge.
3. If operating time has become excessively
shorter, stop operating immediately. It may
result in a risk of overheating, possible burns
and even an explosion.
4. If electrolyte gets into your eyes, rinse them
out with clear water and seek medical
attention right away. It may result in loss of
your eyesight.
5. Do not short the battery cartridge:
(1) Do not touch the terminals with any
conductive material.
(2) Avoid storing battery cartridge in a
container with other metal objects such as
nails, coins, etc.
(3) Do not expose battery cartridge to water
or rain.
A battery short can cause a large current
flow, overheating, possible burns and
even a breakdown.
6. Do not store the tool and battery cartridge in
locations where the temperature may reach or
exceed 50 ﾟC (122 ﾟF).
7. Do not incinerate the battery cartridge even if
it is severely damaged or is completely worn
out. The battery cartridge can explode in a fire.
8. Be careful not to drop or strike battery.
9. Do not use dropped or struck battery.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
Tips for maintaining maximum battery life
1. Charge the battery cartridge before
completely discharged.
Always stop tool operation and charge the
battery cartridge when you notice less tool
power.
2. Never recharge a fully charged battery
cartridge.
Overcharging shortens the battery service life.
3. Charge the battery cartridge with room
temperature at 10 ﾟC - 40 ﾟC (50 ﾟF - 104 ﾟF).
Let a hot battery cartridge cool down before
charging it.
