Engineering Improvements
STIHL's philosophy is to continually
improve all of its products. As a result,
engineering changes and improvements
are made from time to time. Therefore,
some changes, modifications and
improvements may not be covered in
this manual. If the operating
characteristics or the appearance of
your machine differs from those
described in this manual, please contact
your STIHL dealer or the STIHL
distributor for your area for assistance.
Safety Precautions and
Working Techniques
Because the backpack
sprayer is a tool for
spraying chemicals, spe-
cial safety precautions
must be observed to
reduce the risk of per-
sonal injury.
It is important that you
read, fully understand
and observe the following
general safety precau-
tions and warnings. Read
the instruction manual
and the safety precau-
tions periodically. In
addition, read and follow
the chemical manufac-
turer's instructions for the
chemical products being
applied. Since such prod-
ucts may vary greatly in
handling/application
requirements and risks,
the chemical product
label is normally your
best guide for safe and
effective use.
WARNING
Read the label each time before mixing
or using the chemical and before storing
or disposing of it. Do not trust your
memory. Careless or improper use may
cause serious or fatal injury.
