GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS

CLEANING SPRAY EQUIPMENT

Before using AC Carbine 360 Herbicide, ensure that the recommended clean-out procedure for the previous product (particularly sulfonylurea herbicides) sprayed with the equipment was done properly.

After using AC Carbine 360 Herbicide, empty the tank and drain the whole system. Thoroughly wash inside the tank using a pressure hose, drain the tank, and clean all filters in the tank, pump line, and nozzles. Use of a household detergent will aid in cleaning the equipment. Add detergent to the part-filled spray tank and thoroughly circulate through pumps, hoses, and nozzles. Drain the system and thoroughly rinse twice with clean water. Rinse water should be discharged onto a designated disposal area, or if this is unavailable, onto unused land away from desirable plants and water sources.

MIXING:

To ensure even mixing, half-fill the spray tank with clean water and add the required amount of product. Add spray additive and agitate thoroughly, then add the remainder of the water. Agitate again before spraying commences.

APPLICATION:

Ground Application: AC Carbine 360 Herbicide should be applied with calibrated spray equipment producing MEDIUM spray droplets according to the ASAE S572 definition for the standard nozzles. Apply in a minimum of 50 liters of water per hectare. Use 150 L/ha when spraying dense populations.

Aerial Application: AC Carbine 360 Herbicide can be applied through aircraft fitted with boom or Micronair equipment. A spray volume of 20 to 30 L/ha is recommended, and equipment should be adjusted to produce MEDIUM spray droplets according to the ASAE S572 definition for the standard nozzles. Best results will be obtained when aerial applications are made in a light crosswind. Applications should not be made during temperature inversions or in conditions of very low relative humidity. Care should be taken to avoid drift damage to adjoining grass crops.

CAUTION:

Ornamentals and Trees – While AC Carbine 360 Herbicide is generally selective to broadleaved plants (i.e., it is active against grasses), tests should always be made on a small number of plants not previously tested. DO NOT use on Gymnosperms (pines, conifers, etc.) unless a prior test has been conducted to check safety on the relevant species.

COMPATIBILITY

AC Carbine 360 Herbicide is compatible with the following grass herbicides: AC Quiza PE 200, AC Flare 212, AC Half Back 520, Sertin. Note: In all situations where AC Carbine 360 Herbicide is mixed with another grass herbicide, AC Carbine 360 Herbicide should be used at the full label rate specified for the target weed species. AC Carbine 360 Herbicide may also be applied in tank mixtures with one of the following products: Sumi-Alpha 50 EC, Sumi-Alpha Dual, AC Ferocity 100, and AC Omethoate 290. AC Carbine 360 Herbicide should not be applied in a tank mix with AC Dice 500, Basagran, or Blazer. Apply as separate applications. For information on compatibility of products not listed, please refer to Axichem Pty Ltd.

RESISTANT WEEDS WARNING

GROUP 1 HERBICIDE AC Carbine 360 Herbicide is a member of the cyclohexanedione group of herbicides. AC Carbine 360 Herbicide has the inhibition of acetyl coA carboxylase mode of action. For weed resistance management, AC Carbine 360 Herbicide is a Group 1 Herbicide. Some naturally-occurring weed biotypes resistant to AC Carbine 360 Herbicide and other Group 1 Herbicides may exist through normal genetic variability in any weed population. The resistant individuals can eventually dominate the weed population if these herbicides are used repeatedly. These resistant weeds will not be controlled by AC Carbine 360 Herbicide or other Group 1 Herbicides. Since the occurrence of resistant individuals is difficult to detect prior to use, Axichem Pty Ltd accepts no liability for any losses that may result from the failure of AC Carbine 360 Herbicide to control resistant weeds.

PROTECTION OF CROPS, NATIVE, AND OTHER NON-TARGET PLANTS

DO NOT apply under weather conditions, or from spraying equipment, that may cause spray to drift onto nearby susceptible plants, crops, cropping lands, or pastures. AC Carbine 360 Herbicide should not be applied through misting equipment or any other method likely to cause excessive drift. Care should be taken to avoid damage to adjoining native grasses or grass crops.

PROTECTION OF WILDLIFE, FISH, CRUSTACEANS, AND ENVIRONMENT

DO NOT contaminate streams, rivers, or watercourses with the chemical or used containers.

STORAGE AND DISPOSAL

Store in the closed original container in a dry, cool, well-ventilated area out of direct sunlight. Protect from frost. Triple-rinse containers before disposal. Add rinsings to spray tank. Do not dispose of undiluted chemicals on-site. If recycling, replace cap and return clean containers to recycler or designated collection point. If not recycling, break, crush, or puncture and deliver empty packaging to an approved waste management facility. If an approved waste management facility is not available, bury the empty packaging 500 mm below the surface in a disposal pit specifically marked and set up for this purpose, clear of waterways, desirable vegetation, and tree roots, in compliance with relevant local, state, or territory government regulations. Do not burn empty containers or product. For refillable containers: Empty contents fully into application equipment. Close all valves and return to the point of supply for refill or storage.

SAFETY DIRECTIONS

Harmful if swallowed. Will irritate eyes and skin. When preparing spray and using the prepared spray, wear cotton overalls buttoned to the neck and wrist, washable hat, elbow-length chemical-resistant gloves, and a face shield or goggles. If product on the skin, immediately wash the area with soap and water. If product in eyes, wash it out immediately with water. After use and before eating, drinking, or smoking, wash hands, arms, and face thoroughly with soap and water. After each day’s use, wash gloves, face shield or goggles, and contaminated clothing.
