using the sprayer. Clean after each use.
 Do not smoke while using the sprayer, or spray where
spark or flame is present.
 Risk of injection. Do not discharge directly against skin.
 To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not put the
sprayer into water or other liquid. Do not place or store
the sprayer where it can fall or be pulled into a tub or sink.
 Maintain this product. Thoroughly inspect both the
inside and outside of the sprayer and examine the
components before each use. Check for cracked
and deteriorated hoses, leaks, clogged nozzles, and
missing or damaged parts. If damaged, have the
product repaired before use. Many accidents are caused
by poorly maintained products.
 Disconnect the battery from the unit before draining,
cleaning, or storing the sprayer. Such preventive safety
measures reduce the risk of accidental starting.
 Always wear eye protection with side shields or
goggles marked to comply with ANSI Z87.1. Failure to
do so could result in fluids entering your eyes resulting
in possible serious injury.
 Protect your lungs. Wear a face or dust mask when
using the sprayer. Following this rule will reduce the risk
of serious personal injury.
 Battery tools do not have to be plugged into an
electrical outlet; therefore, they are always in operating
condition. Be aware of possible hazards when not
using your battery tool or when changing accessories.
Remove battery pack when tool is not in use. Following
this rule will reduce the risk of electric shock, fire, or
serious personal injury.
 Do not place battery tools or their batteries near fire
or heat. This will reduce the risk of explosion and possibly
injury.
 Do not crush, drop or damage battery pack. Do not
use a battery pack or charger that has been dropped
or received a sharp blow. A damaged battery is subject
to explosion. Properly dispose of a dropped or damaged
battery immediately.
 Batteries can explode in the presence of a source
of ignition, such as a pilot light. To reduce the risk of
serious personal injury, never use any cordless product
in the presence of open flame. An exploded battery can
propel debris and chemicals. If exposed, flush with water
immediately.
