This water pump is intended for use in applying agricultural pesticides and other non-flammable liquids.
APPLYING 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.
The water pump is intended for use in applying pesticides in liquid form only. The water pump is NOT
intended for use in applying pesticides in dry or aerosolized form, or for use with fumigants.
Some formulations of liquid pesticides do not remain in solution and should be agitated to maintain a
uniform mix.
APPLYING OTHER LIQUIDS:
In addition to applying pesticides, this water pump may be used to pump/spray other non-flammable
liquids. Example uses include: watering plants/trees or applying water for dust control. However, WE
RECOMMEND THAT THE WATER PUMP NOT BE USED FOR OTHER PURPOSES ONCE
IT HAS ALREADY BEEN USED FOR APPLYING PESTICIDES. Any chemical will leave some
residual in the pump, even after the water pump has been properly cleaned. These residual chemicals can
have unexpected effects on future uses. For example, applying water or other liquids that are
contaminated with residual pesticide may result in unforeseen hazards to plant or animal life.
Contact NorthStar Product Support at 1-800-270-0810 for any questions about the appropriate use
of the water pump and/or optional accessories.
