7.
Firmly close chemical tank lid to prevent
leaking.
Never transfer chemical to another container.
8.
9.
Always thoroughly wash empty chemical
containers when mixing spray liquid and then
follow chemical manufacturer's instructions to
correctly dispose of containers at all times.
10. Before using the sprayer, be sure to check
there are no abnormalities, such as displace-
ment of packing from connector, looseness of
screws, missing components, and/or cracked/
worn/damaged hose.
Using an incomplete sprayer may cause an acci-
dent and/or injury.
11.
People not involved in spraying should
refrain from approaching the worksite during
spraying.
12. When transporting a chemical-loaded sprayer
by vehicle, there is a risk of leaking, so always
firmly tighten the chemical tank lid, and secure
the sprayer in an upright position.
13. Never use items such as strongly acidic chem-
icals, paints, thinners, gasoline or benzene
with the sprayer, as there is a danger of burns
or fire.
14. Do not clean the sprayer with flammable
solvents.
15. Be sure to select the appropriate chemical
(taking into consideration usage method and
effectiveness) to deal with the pest or weed in
question.
16. An inappropriately mixed chemical may harm
humans as well as damage crops/plants. When
mixing chemical, thoroughly read chemical
instructions, and dilute chemical correctly
prior to use.
17. Always mix chemical before loading it into
tank.
18. To prevent inhalation and/or contact with
chemical, be sure to wear safety clothing (hat,
protective goggles, protective mask, rubber
gloves, long-sleeved pest-control jacket, long
trousers and gumboots), so that skin is not
exposed when spraying.
19. Always load the tank with chemical or clean
water when operating the sprayer, as operating
the sprayer with an empty tank may damage
the pump.
20. If the sprayer stops running, or an abnormal
sound is emitted, immediately switch OFF the
sprayer, and discontinue use.
21. Constantly be aware of wind direction while
spraying, to ensure spraying from upwind to
downwind, in order to prevent direct chem-
ical contact with body. Also, be careful to
keep chemical from reaching surroundings,
and stop using the sprayer when the wind is
strong.
22. As there is a risk of chemical poisoning when
spraying in a greenhouse, always ventilate
while spraying.
23. Avoid spraying when atmospheric temperature
is high.
24. Avoid prolonged operation of sprayer.
Whenever possible, rotate operators.
25. If even a slight headache or dizziness, etc.,
occurs, stop spraying work immediately,
and consult a doctor. Moreover, be sure to
clearly inform the doctor of the name of the
agrochemical being used, and the operating
circumstances.
26. In cases where spray status deteriorates and
nozzle needs cleaning, there is a risk of the
chemical liquid coming into contact with the
face, so be sure to switch OFF the sprayer, and
then remove the nozzle to clean.
27. Be sure to dispose of wastewater generated
from washing used containers and chemical
tank appropriately in a location where it will
not flow into rivers and streams and/or con-
taminate groundwater.
28. After spraying, if chemical remains in the
chemical tank, spray hose, spray pipe and noz-
zle, it may cause spray injury. Be sure to fully
wash away residual chemical with clean water
- in particular, after spraying with herbicide.
29. Keep agrochemicals away from children. Be
sure to store residual chemicals in chemi-
cal-designated storage containers.
30. After completion of spraying, be sure to wash
(spray wash) equipment with clean water, drain
off the washing water, and store indoors away
from direct sunlight and freezing tempera-
tures, and out of reach of children.
31. After completion of spraying, be sure to thor-
oughly wash entire body with soap, rinse eyes,
and gargle. During spraying period, change
clothes daily.
