Safe Handling Of Spraying Agents; Safe Handling Of The Rechargeable Battery And The Charger - Solo 417 Instructions D'emploi

2.4 Safe handling of spraying agents


Avoid contaminating the environment, the mains
water supply and/or public sewer systems with
spraying agent or cleaner!
Ensure to avoid contamination when mixing,
filling, using, draining, cleaning, servicing and
transporting by using adequate procedures and
suitable containers.

Spraying agents and cleaners must never be
allowed to enter the mains water supply – not
even by back-suction when filling, public sewer
systems, sprayed onto wastelands, allowed to
drain into natural bodies of water or disposed of
together with normal domestic waste. This also
means that appropriate care must be taken
during filling to ensure that none of the spraying
agent is drawn back into water pipes. Spraying
agents and cleaners and any unused leftovers of
spraying agents and cleaners must always be
collected in a suitable container and disposed of
via approved facilities for household chemical
waste. Please contact your local authorities for
information about your nearest disposal facilities.

Avoid any direct contact with spraying agents.
In case of contact with health hazardous spray-
ing agents, immediately rinse the affected body
parts with plenty of clean water, immediately
change the clothing soaked with spraying agents
and immediately seek medical advice.

Never eat or drink when handling spraying
agents.

Stop working immediately if you start to feel
unwell while working, or if you become unusually
tired. Seek medical advice if the condition
persists.

Never allow children or anybody who is not
familiar with handling this type of spraying agent
to handle the spraying agent.

Clean the spraying agent tank and all other
spraying agent carrying parts whenever the
spraying agent is changed. To flush out any
residue from the pump and the hose, run the
pressure sprayer with clean water after cleaning
the spraying agent tank and before the next
spraying agent is filled in. This will prevent the
risk of any chemical reactions taking place
between the different substances.

Never spray in narrow or enclosed spaces –
spraying agents are toxic and there is a risk of
poisoning. Spraying equipment must for
example only be used in greenhouses if
adequate ventilation is provided. Signs must be
put up in greenhouses that have been treated.
Nobody should enter the greenhouse again until
it has been thoroughly ventilated.

When you have finished spraying, prepare the
device for storage according to section 9.8,
thoroughly wash your face and hands with soap,
take off your work clothing and ensure that it is
washed regularly.
Any unused spraying agent that is left over in the
device could cause corrosion and hence
damage the device. Special attention must be
paid to wearing parts like spray nozzles, filters
and seals.
2.5 Safe handling of the rechargeable battery
and the charger

The charger must only be connected to a mains
supply with an operating voltage between 100V
and 240V AC 50/60Hz. It must only be
connected using the correct adapter plugs.
- Check that the mains voltage is correct
before connecting the device.
- Use the correct mains adapter plug.
- The charger must not be connected to the
mains supply in countries for which no
matching mains adapter plug is supplied
together with the backpack sprayer or in
countries where the mains voltage differs
from the operating voltage of the charger.
In this case you should contact a local
dealer to enquire about options for
connecting the charger to the mains supply.

Always hold the charger itself to push it into the
electrical socket or to pull it out. Never pull on
the cable.

The charger is only designed to recharge the
rechargeable battery that is supplied by SOLO
for this pressure sprayer. Ensure that the battery
is always correctly connected to the charger
before charging.

Always switch off the pump when the charger is
connected.

Never connect the two terminals of the
rechargeable battery (+ / -) with a conducting
object (short circuit).

Keep the charger, the rechargeable battery and
all of the electronics well away from splash
water. These areas should only be cleaned with
a dry or slightly damp cloth. Before cleaning,
always disconnect the power plug from the
socket and the charging cable from the charging
socket on the device.

The rechargeable battery contains dangerous
substances. Never open the battery or the
charger.

Only use the genuine charger to recharge the
battery.

The rechargeable battery and the charger must
not be disposed of as normal domestic waste.
Ensure that you take them to an official disposal
facility for electrical equipment.
