Refueling
• Shut off the engine (8) during refueling, keep well away from open flame (9) and
do not smoke.
• Avoid skin contact with petroleum products. Do not inhale fuel vapor.
Always wear protective gloves during refueling. Change and clean protective
clothing at regular intervals.
• Take care not to spill either fuel or oil in order to prevent soil contamination
(environmental protection). Clean the mist blower immediately after fuel has been
spilled. Allow wet cloths to dry before disposing in properly, covered container to
prevent spontaneous combustion.

• If you are unfamiliar with the risks associated with the particular chemical you use,
review the product label and/or material safety data sheet for that substance and/
or consult the material manufacturer/supplier.
You may also ask your employer, governmental agencies such as the EPA, OSHA
and NIOSH and other sources for information on hazardous materials.
The state of California and some other authorities, for instance, have published
lists of substances known to cause cancer, reproductive toxicity, etc. (11).

injured or damaged by spraying (12).
• Never insert any foreign object into the air intake of the machine or into the nozzle
of the mist blower. It will damage the fan wheel and may cause serious injury to
the operator or bystanders as a result of the object or broken parts being thrown
out at high speed.
