10. Use the Fogger about 5 feet away from the target area with the wind at your back.

This will avoid having the fog blow back towards you and not on the desired
location.

OTHER USAGE TIPS

ALWAYS operate the Fogger with the coil wire basket level with the ground. DO
NOT tip upside down or on its side.
NEVER use directly on plants or outdoor shrubs. Use the Fogger in the direction
of the areas intended to use.
NEVER use the Fogger in extreme temperatures or harsh winds.
The best time to use the Fogger is at dusk when the wind and temperatures will
allow the insecticide fog to settle on the intended area and be most effective.
The Fogger can be used as a wet or dry Fogger. The rate of pumping controls the
wetness or dryness of the fog. We recommend that you pump the Fogger every 3
to 4 seconds to achieve maximum effect. A dry fog is always recommended.
The fog should be white in color. If it appears brown or yellow, you are pumping
the Fogger too slowly and the fog will be too dry. However, if you are pumping
too quickly, the end of the fogger will be wet.

TURNING THE FOGGER OFF

1. Lock the trigger by pushing the trigger lock to the right side.
2. The insecticide may continue to fog for a few minutes.
3. Once the fog is stopped, turn off the propane fuel valve. It may take several

additional minutes for the Fogger to cool down.
