chemicals on you or others.

running.

Note: A reserve, clean container capable of holding at least 55 gallons should be kept for use when
the sprayer tank needs to be emptied temporarily for repairs. It is advisable to purchase a
reserve tank suitable for pesticide storage from Northern Tool and Equipment for use in these
circumstances. The container should be properly labeled as to its contents if it is used.
