GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS

Gladiator Dry 680 WG Herbicide is a non-volatile, water soluble herbicide for the control of annual and perennial grasses and broadleaf weeds. Gladiator Dry 680 may be used for weed control on agricultural land prior to planting any edible or non edible crop but not prior to transplanting tomatoes. Gladiator Dry 680 is absorbed by plant foliage and green stems. It is inactivated immediately in soil and does not provide residual weed control. Gladiator Dry 680 moves throughout the weed from the point of contact to and into the root system. Visible effects on annual weeds take 3-7 days but may not be noticeable for 2 to 3 weeks under cool cloudy conditions or on some perennial weeds. Gladiator Dry 680 will control emerged weeds only, and provides no residual weed control. Apply treatments to weeds which have at least one true leaf (broadleaf weeds) or two leaves (grasses) to provide an adequate surface area for herbicide uptake.

MIXING

For boom application, water volumes should not be less than 61itres per 1 kg of Gladiator Dry 680. Reduced results may occur if water containing soil is used, eg. Water from ponds and unlined ditches, or if hard water containing calcium salts is used. Do not mix, store or apply this product or spray solutions of this product in galvanised steel or unlined steel containers or spray tanks, since a highly flammable gas mixture may be formed. Use stainless steel, aluminium, brass, copper, fibreglass, plastic or plastic lined containers or spray tanks. Spray tanks, pumps, lines and nozzles should be thoroughly cleaned with clean water following application to prevent corrosion. Ensure the spray tank is free of any residue of previous spray materials. Use spray solutions promptly and certainly within 5 days, since gradual loss of activity will occur. Good agitation is required particularly under cold conditions, to ensure all of the Gladiator Dry 680 dissolves when first added to the tank.

APPLICATION

Gladiator Dry 680 is a non-selective translocated herbicide. Direct spray contact, or even slight drift, may cause severe injury or destruction of any growing crop or other desirable plants including trees. Clean all equipment after use by thoroughly washing with water
