Operation
• Ensure you are wearing appropriate PPE when operating this
fogger.
• If the use of an extension lead is required, ensure it is rated at
230V 13Aand is grounded. Only use an extension lead which
is properly rated for voltage, current, length, and which is free
from nicks, cracks, and other signs of prior abuse. Replace
damaged or worn electric leads immediately.
• Do not use a fogger that is broken or damaged in any way. Do
not alter the fogger by adding or removing parts.
• Do not restrict the motor blower air intake area.
Formulation
• Always read the product label when preparing your solution
and ensure the formulation is suitable for the intended
application.
• This fogger can be used with water-based, oil-based, and
solvent-based formulations. Ensure that formulation is
applied only in strict compliance with the formulation label
and store formulation in its original labelled container.
• Remove the lling cap to pour formulation into the tank. Add
only premixed/diluted formulations to the tank.
Operation
• With the fogger power off, remove the lling cap and pour
your premixed formulation into the tank, up to a maximum
3.8 litres, and replace the cap.
• Ensuring the fogger is pointing in a safe direction, turn on via
the power switch and select the appropriate ow valve setting.
• The exact method of operation is dependent on a number
of factors, including the application, ow rate, formulation
viscosity, but best results are normally achieved maintaining
a distance of 1-4 metres from the items you want to fog. Keep
moving the fogger with slow, steady movements for an even
coverage, starting from the highest point. If there is liquid
run-off then the application is too heavy, either move further
away, adjust the ow rate or speed up.
• Do not allow the fogger to operate unattended. Do not stand
in water or hold over water while operating fogger and do not
allow the power lead or extension lead to be submersed in
water.Do not use outdoors when it’s raining.
• Do not block the air intake area.

Flow Rate Information
Please use the below table as a reference for the ow rate of the
Hurricane.
Metering

Setting
Hurricane Flow Rate And Droplet Size
Flow Rate Droplet Size
mL/Min Microns - Volume
Median Diameter
#1 60 40-50 MICRONS
#2 90 40-55 MICRONS
#3 120 45-70 MICRONS
• Thicker viscosity liquids will ow at lower rates than demon-
strated in the above table, and produce a bigger droplet size.
• Adjusting the valve will regulate ow rate.
• When the valve is turned clockwise, ow rate will reduce;
when turned anti-clockwise, ow rate will increase.
After Use
• Turn the ow valve to the OFF position after each fogging
application while the motor is still operating to allow the
clearing of the lines.
• Turn off the appliance before unplugging. Unplug by grasp-
ing the plug, do not pull on the lead to unplug. Do not unplug
the fogger with wet hands.
• Clean the Air Intake Filter after each application. If the lter
becomes saturated while the fogger is in operation, switch it
off and clean the lter.
• Formulation should not be stored in the tank.The tank should
be cleaned after each use with hot water with a detergent
solution and ushed thoroughly with clean water before re-
use. To ensure a full ush, fully open the valve and operate
the fogger for 3 to 5 minutes.
