SERVICE
• Have your power tool serviced by a qualified
repair person using only identical replacement
parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power
tool is maintained.

of battery packs should only be performed by the
manufacturer or authorized service providers.
SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES FOR
BACKPACK SPRAYER
•
Risk of fire or explosion. Do not
WARNING
spray flammable liquids such as
gasoline, solvents, or gas producing chemicals.
Do not use tool around spark, flame, or smoke.
Chemical may ignite.
• Use the correct tank for your application. These
products are suitable for pesticide applications
(such as insecticides, fungicides, or herbicides),
fertilizers, concrete applications (such as seal-
ants, curing compounds and form oil), and water
supply applications, when used in accordance
with these instructions and those supplied with
the chemicals.
• Do not use bleach, caustic (alkali) self-heating
or corrosive (acid) liquids in this sprayer. Do not
pour hot or boiling liquids into the tank. These
can corrode metal parts or weaken the tank and
hose.
• To reduce the risk of fire, personal injury, and
product damage due to a short circuit, never
immerse your tool, battery pack or charger in
fluid or allow a fluid to flow inside them. Do not
place or store tool where it can fall or be pulled
into a tub or sink. Corrosive or conductive fluids,
such as seawater, certain industrial chemicals,
and bleach or bleach containing products, etc.,
can cause a short circuit.
• Electric shock hazard. Never spray toward
electrical outlets.
• Spray area must be well ventilated to avoid
hazardous fumes build-up.
• Avoid spraying on windy days. Spray can be
blown onto people, plants, or objects that should
not be sprayed.
• Do not store chemicals in the tank. Chemicals
can degrade seals and hoses. Drain and clean
after each use.
•Remove gloves before handling battery packs.
Chemicals are harmful to plastics.
• Maintain your power tool. Thoroughly inspect
inside and outside and examine all compo-
nents before each use. Check for cracked and
deteriorated hoses, leaks, clogged nozzles, and
missing or damaged parts. If damaged, have the
power tool repaired before use. Many accidents
are caused by poorly maintained power tools.
• Always unplug the charger and remove the battery
pack from the charger or tool before performing
any maintenance, storing, or draining the tool.
Never disassemble the tool, battery pack or
charger. Contact a MILWAUKEE service facility
for ALL repairs.
• Do not eat or smoke while handling or operating
the tool. After use, wash with hot, soapy water
to help reduce the risk of health hazards due to
exposure to chemicals.
• Always use common sense and be cautious when
using tools. It is not possible to anticipate every
situation that could result in a dangerous outcome.
Do not use this tool if you do not understand these
operating instructions or you feel the work is beyond
your capability; contact Milwaukee Tool or a trained
professional for additional information or training.
• Do not use the battery compartment for storage.
• Maintain labels and nameplates. These carry
important information. If unreadable or missing,
contact a MILWAUKEE service facility for a free
replacement.

WARNING
sawing, grinding, drilling, and other
construction activities contains chemicals known to
cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive
harm. Some examples of these chemicals are:
• lead from lead-based paint
• crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other
masonry products, and
• arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated
lumber.
Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on
how often you do this type of work. To reduce your
exposure to these chemicals: work in a well-ventilated
area, and work with approved safety equipment, such
as those dust masks that are specially designed to
filter out microscopic particles.
