To ensure safe operation
How to handle agricultural chemicals
• Do not spray the chemicals in the daytime while the temperature is
high, or on a day of strong wind. Do not spray the chemicals in a
busy place during a busy time especially when school children are
likely to pass through. If you spray the chemicals under strong
sunlight, the sprayed chemicals become concentrated and can be
more potent to your health. If you spray the chemicals on days of
strong wind, the chemicals can blow to other places and harm other
people or animals, such as domestic animals, kept bees, silk worms,
or aquatic animals.
• Read and understand all the labels for the chemicals, directions, and
cautions to ensure their proper usage. Be aware of the toxicity of the
chemicals and the first aid treatment needed to prepare for the
worst.
Ignoring the cautions could cause a serious accident.
• Do not eat, drink, or smoke during the spray of chemicals. Wash
your hands and face carefully with soap. Also, rinse out your mouth
before taking a break or before eating or smoking after the spray
work is done, in order to protect yourself from the harm of the
chemicals.
• Do not transport nor store food and drinks in the same container as
the chemicals or the backpack sprayer to prevent cross
contamination.
• The remainder of the chemicals must be sealed and stored in a box
with a lock and key separate from the food and feed so as not to
cause a serious accident.
