Tips For Use

Restraints

• Do not apply by aerial application except for cotton desiccation (Qld, NSW, WA only).

Timing

• Apply to small, actively growing weeds at 2 to 10 leaf stage in grass pastures, or at 2 to 8 leaf stage for pre-crop situations.
• Avoid application to drought-stressed or hardened weeds, particularly marshmallow in summer, as control may be reduced.
• Apply when the soil is moist, the weather is fine, and rain is not expected within one hour (or as specified for the knockdown herbicide label).

Mixing Instructions

• Add half the required water to the spray tank and start agitation.
• Add any SC or WG partner herbicide next, then add the measured amount of Fang 240, then the knockdown herbicide.
• Add the remaining water, then any adjuvant or additive as recommended.
• Maintain good agitation throughout spraying. Do not store the spray mixture overnight.

• In three-way mixes, also compatible with 2,4-D amine, 2,4-D ester, atrazine, simazine, trifluralin, pendimethalin, and triasulfuron (provided the knockdown herbicide label includes compatibility with the partner product).
• Compatible with non-ionic surfactants (wetting agents) and oil adjuvants, including Hasten and Supercharge.
• Do not use floodjet, low-drift or air-induction nozzles, boomless jets, misters, or controlled droplet application equipment.

Sprayer Clean-Out

• After use, thoroughly clean all spray equipment with an alkaline detergent solution (e.g., OMO or SPREE at 100 g per 100 L water) before spraying sensitive crops such as canola, pulses, and legumes.
• Soak the cleaning solution in the tank, pump, and spray lines overnight, then flush with clean water before the next use.
