While Operating
WARNING
Engine exhaust contains carbon monoxide, which
is an odorless, deadly poison that can kill you.
Do not run engine indoors or in an enclosed area.
• The operator should remain seated whenever the
sprayer is in motion. The operator should keep both
hands on the steering wheel whenever possible.
Keep your arms and legs within the sprayer body
at all times.
• Always watch out for and avoid low overhangs such
as tree limbs, door jambs, and overhead walkways.
Make sure there is enough room over head to easily
clear the sprayer and your head.
• Failure to operate the sprayer safely may result in an
accident, tip over of the sprayer, and serious injury
or death. Drive carefully. To prevent tipping or loss
of control:
– Use extreme caution, reduce speed, and maintain
a safe distance around sand traps, ditches, creeks,
ramps, unfamiliar areas, or any areas that have
abrupt changes in ground conditions or elevation.
– Watch for holes or other hidden hazards.
– Use extra caution when operating the sprayer on
wet surfaces, in adverse weather conditions, at
higher speeds, or with a full load. Stopping time
and distance will increase with a full load.

first coming to a complete stop.

sharp turns or abrupt maneuvers or other unsafe
driving actions that may cause a loss of sprayer
control.

that no one is behind you. Back up slowly.
