General Information And Directions For Use
  • Timing: for best results spray when weeds are in the seedling stage. Apply in good growing conditions. Application must be made before the crop shields the weeds.
  • Sprayer: wash the tank and clean all filters, screens and tips. Select nozzle tips to apply the recommended volume of water per hectare. Flood jet type tips are not recommended. Adjust boom height to ensure uniform coverage of weeds. For ground application, spray at 5–10 km/h. Ensure that all tips are in good condition and spraying the same volume.
  • Mixing: half fill the tank with clean water. Add the required amount of ipco brotex 4at liquid herbicide and agitate thoroughly. Fill the tank and agitate again before use. Field sprayer application: do not apply during periods of dead calm. Avoid application of this product when winds are gusty. Do not apply with spray droplets smaller than the american society of agricultural engineers (asae) medium classification. Boom height must be 60 cm or less above the crop or ground. Aerial application (wheat and barley only): aerial application: do not apply during periods of dead calm. Avoid application of this product when winds are gusty. Do not apply when wind speed is greater than 16 km/h at flying height at the site of application. Do not apply with spray droplets smaller than the american society of agricultural engineers (asae) medium classification. To reduce drift as this product is not registered for the control of pests in aquatic systems, do not use to control aquatic pests. Do not contaminate irrigation or drinking water supplies or aquatic habitats by cleaning of equipment or disposal of wastes.
  • Aerial application (wheat and barley only): do not apply during periods of dead calm. Avoid application of this product when winds are gusty. Do not apply when wind speed is greater than 16 km/h at flying height at the site of application. Do not apply with spray droplets smaller than the american society of agricultural engineers (asae) medium classification. To reduce drift caused by turbulent wingtip vortices, the nozzle distribution along the spray boom length must not exceed 65% of the wing or rotorspan. Apply only by fixed-wing or rotary aircraft equipment which has been functionally and operationally calibrated for the atmospheric conditions of the area and the application rate and conditions of this label. Label rates, conditions and precautions are product specific. Read and understand the entire label before opening this product. Apply only at the rate recommended for aerial application on this label. Where no rate for aerial application appears for the specific use, this product cannot be applied by any type of aerial equipment. Ensure uniform application.

Apply only when the potential for drift to areas of human habitation or areas of human activity such as houses, cottages, schools, and recreational areas is minimal. Take into consideration wind speed, wind direction, temperature inversions, application equipment, and sprayer settings.
  • Ground applications: wear coveralls over a long-sleeved shirt, long pants, chemical-resistant gloves, socks and shoes during mixing, loading, clean-up and repair. Wear a long-sleeved shirt and long pants, chemical resistant gloves, and socks plus shoes during applications. Gloves are not required during application within a closed cab.
  • Aerial applications: the field crew and the mixer/loaders: wear coveralls over a long-sleeved shirt, long pants, chemical-resistant gloves, socks and shoes during mixing, loading, clean-up and repair.
  • Aerial applicators: wear a long-sleeved shirt, long pants, socks and shoes during application. Gloves are not required during application within a closed cockpit. Do not allow the pilot to mix chemicals to be loaded onto the aircraft. Do not enter or allow worker entry into treated areas during the restricted-entry interval (rei) of 24 hours.
