MIXING THE SPRAY SOLUTION
WARNING
Mix the chemicals strictly in accordance with the
manufacturer's instructions. Incorrect mixtures may
produce toxic fumes or explosive solutions.
Never spray liquid plant control chemicals undiluted.
Prepare solution and fill the container outdoors only or
in well-ventilated locations.
Prepare only sufficient solution for the job at hand so
that nothing is left over.
Do not mix different chemicals unless such mixture is
approved by the manufacturer.

FILLING THE CONTAINER

Stand the sprayer on a level surface, do not fill the
container above the maximum mark.
When filling from the central water supply, do not
immerse the end of the hose in the solution. Sudden
low pressure in the system may cause the solution to
be sucked back into the water supply.
Before filling the container with spray solution, carry out
a test run with fresh water, and check all parts of the
sprayer for leaks.
After filling, fit the filler cap, and tighten it down firmly.
Hang a tag to the product to note what chemical is
being used.

mouth.

change clothing contaminated with plant control
chemicals.

plant treatment.
