Bayonet Fuel Filler Cap
Never use a tool to open or close the
bayonet fuel filler cap, as this could
damage the cap and cause fuel to leak
out.
The bayonet fuel filler cap must be
closed with care after refuelling.
Filling the Container
Warning!
Tighten all connections and check to be
sure the hose is securely attached and
in good condition. Keep the valve lever
on the control lever closed.
Before using the power tool with
chemicals, fill it with fresh water to
assure that you have it properly
assembled and practice spraying. Also,
check for any leaks at this time. When
thoroughly familiar with the power tool
operation, follow normal operating
procedures.
Fill your power tool in well-ventilated
areas, outdoors.
Warning!
Do not use:
8
–
flammables in the mistblower, which
can explode causing serious or fatal
injury;
–
caustic or corrosive materials in the
mistblower, that could result in
damage to the unit;
–
liquids with a temperature above
120° F (50° C) to avoid scalding and
damage to the unit.
To fill the container, place the power tool
on a level surface. To reduce the risk of
contaminating the surrounding
environment, be careful not to overfill the
container with chemical solution.
To reduce the risk of injury, do not fill
the unit while wearing it on your back.
If you fill the container with a hose
attached to a central water supply, be
sure the end of the hose is out of the
solution to reduce the risk of backflow,
i.e. the chemicals being sucked into the
water supply in the case of a sudden
vacuum.
Calculate the correct amount of
chemical solution so that it is used up at
one time, with no extra solution left in the
tank.
After filling, fit the container cap and
tighten it down firmly.
Warning!
Check for leakage while refilling and
during operation. A leak from the con-
tainer or a loose fitting could soak your
clothing and come into contact with your
skin.
Before Starting
Warning!
Always check your power tool for proper
condition and operation before starting,
particularly the throttle trigger and set-
ting lever with stop position. The throttle
trigger must move freely and always
spring back to the idle position. Never
attempt to modify the controls or safety
devices.
Warning!
To reduce the risk of leakage and skin
contact with chemicals, check that the
container cap and all connections in the
path of the spray are tight, and be sure
the hose is securely attached and in
good condition. Keep the valve lever
closed.
Warning!
Never operate your power tool if it is
damaged, improperly adjusted or main-
tained, or not completely or securely
assembled.
Warning!
Check that the spark plug boot is
securely mounted on the spark plug – a
loose boot may cause arcing that could
ignite combustible fumes and cause a
fire.
Keep the control handle clean and dry at
all times; it is particularly important to
keep it free of moisture, pitch, oil, fuel
mix, grease or resin in order for you to
maintain a firm grip and properly control
your power tool.
