Warning Decals

Decals warning you of avoidable danger are located on various parts of the sprayer. They are there for your personal safety and protection. DO NOT remove them. They will fracture upon attempted removal and therefore must be replaced.

Following are locations of important safety decals. Replace them if they are torn or missing. All warning decals and other instructional Hagie decals or machine striping may be purchased through the Hagie Customer Support Department. To replace decals, be sure that the installation area is clean and dry; decide on exact position before you remove the backing paper.
