Danger! Your backpack sprayer is not insulated against electric shock. To reduce the risk of electrocution, never operate this backpack sprayer in the vicinity of any wires or cables (power, etc.) which may be carrying electric current. Do not spray on or near electrical installations. After Finishing Work Always wash thoroughly with soap and water after spraying or handling chemicals. Shower immediately, and wash all protective clothing separately from other items. Follow any additional recommendations of the chemical manufacturer. Always clean dust and dirt off the backpack sprayer. Warning! Empty, rinse and clean the container and sprayer assembly after each use. This helps to prevent the solution from crystallizing, which could later cause clogging and chemical damage to the unit. In addition; residual chemicals may have undesirable effects during subsequent spraying with a different type of chemical (e.g., residual herbicide may damage or kill plants being sprayed with a pesticide). Disposal of contaminated rinse should be in accordance with applicable ordinances. Observe the precautionary instructions of the chemical manufacturer. Do not store sprayer under pressure or with spray solution in the container. Maintenance, Repair and Storing Warning! Use only identical STIHL replacement parts for maintenance and repair. Use of non-STIHL parts may result in personal injury or property damage. Strictly follow the maintenance and repair instructions in the appropriate section of your instruction manual. Please refer to the maintenance chart in this manual. Warning! Always release pressure in the pump and the pressure chamber prior to cleaning or servicing the sprayer. To release the pressure, keep the trigger valve depressed without operating the hand lever until there is no more air or liquid coming out of the nozzle. Do not attempt any maintenance or repair work not described in your instruction manual. Have such work performed by your STIHL servicing dealer only.
