Safety Precautions and Working Techniques Because the mistblower is a power tool for spraying chemicals, special safety precautions must be observed to reduce the risk of personal injury. It is important that you read, fully understand and observe the following general safety precautions and warnings. Read the instruction manual and the safety precautions periodically. In addition, read and follow the chemical manufacturer’s instructions for the chemical products being applied. Since such products may vary greatly in handling/application requirements and risks, the product label is normally your best guide for safe and effective use. Use your power tool for spraying chemicals and other liquids to control pests and weeds in fruit, flower and vegetable gardens, on trees and bushes and on other plants, such as coffee, tobacco and cotton. It is also useful in the maintenance of young trees for, e.g., controlling the bark beetle and other pests and plant diseases.
