Intended Use - North Star 282805 Owner's Manual

The sprayer is intended for use in spraying agricultural pesticides and other non-
flammable liquids.
SPRAYING PESTICIDES:
Pesticides are hazardous chemicals that must be handled with caution as directed
throughout this manual and on the pesticide label. Pesticides are regulated by the United
States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and defined as:
Any substance or mixture of substances intended for preventing, destroying,
repelling, or mitigating any pest. Though often misunderstood to refer only to
insecticides, the term pesticide is a comprehensive term that applies to
insecticides, herbicides, fungicides, and various other substances used to control
pests.
Sprayer 282805 comes equipped with a high pressure spray gun and a broadcast boom.
Use the spray gun if you desire to apply pesticide only on selected plants and trees. Use
the broadcast boom if you wish to spray large ground areas.
SPRAYING OTHER LIQUIDS:
In addition to spraying pesticides, this sprayer may be used to spray other non-
flammable liquids. Example uses include: watering plants/trees or spraying water for
dust control, or applying water-based, non-flammable sealant or stain to outdoor wood
surfaces. WE RECOMMEND THAT THE SPRAYER NOT BE USED FOR
OTHER PURPOSES ONCE IT HAS ALREADY BEEN USED FOR SPRAYING
PESTICIDES. Any chemical will leave some residual in the tank liner or sprayer
components, even after the sprayer has been properly cleaned. These residual chemicals
can have unexpected effects on future uses. For example, spraying water or other liquids
that are contaminated with residual pesticide may result in unforeseen hazards to plant or
animal life.
NOTE: The sprayer will be damaged and warranty voided if used to apply bleach,
chlorine, ice control chemicals, or any petroleum based product (gasoline, diesel,
kerosene, oil).

appropriate use of the sprayer and/or optional accessories.
