Tank-mixing: The following order should be followed:
1. Quarter fill the spraytank maintaining agitation.
2. Add any wettable powders or dry flowable formulations with continuous agitation, ensure product is completely dissolved.
3. Add Lontrel Advanced Herbicide.
4. Add water to half fill the spray tank.
5. Add other suspension concentrates (flowables), aqueous concentrates and the emulsifiable concentrates including
other selective grass herbicides or broadleaf herbicides.
6. If UptakeTM Spraying Oil or BS1000 is to be used add when spray tank is three quarters full.
7. If other adjuvants or a wetting agent is to be used, add these according to their label.
8. Add water to bring to the final spray volume.
Only mix sufficient spray solution for immediate use and avoid storing.

APPLICATION
GROUND BOOM
USE ONLY nozzles that the nozzles’ manufacturer has rated to deliver a COARSE, a VERY COARSE or an EXTREMELY COARSE droplet size category as referenced to ASABE S572 or BCPC. Choose a nozzle specified to provide the droplet size category required in the label Spray Drift Restraints. DO NOT use a higher spray system pressure than the maximum the manufacturer specifies for the selected nozzle to deliver the droplet size category required in the label Spray Drift Restraint.
Apply in 50-100 L water/ha using at least a coarse spray through accurately calibrated equipment.
Hardhead thistle – Use at least a coarse spray and 200 to 250 L/ha of water.
Silver wattle – Use at least a coarse spray and 150 to 200 L/ha of water.

AERIAL APPLICATION
Apply in not less than 20 L water/ha using a COARSE spray through accurately calibrated equipment. DO NOT use less than 50 L/ha for silver wattle.
Fixed wing: For up to a maximum aircraft speed of 120 knots and a COARSE droplet size category, USE ONLY narrow
angle flat fan nozzles with spray angle less than or equal to 40° and oriented straight back to the light direction. USE ONLY a spray system pressure greater than or equal to 4 bar.
Helicopter: For helicopter applications requiring a COARSE or a VERY COARSE spray droplet size category, USE ONLY nozzles selected with the methods previously specified for fixed-wing aircraft in Section 2.

MOTORISED HIGH VOLUME HAND GUN
Apply the recommended mix to give full coverage of leaves and stems through a No. 6-8 tip at 700 to 1500 kPa. Spray volume for effective coverage of dense two metre high silver wattle should be 30 to 40 litres of spray per 100 m2 (10 m x 10 m) of infestation. For larger areas an equivalent would be 3000 to 4000 litres per infested hectare.

CLEANING SPRAY EQUIPMENT
Rinse water should be discharged onto a designated disposal area or, if this is unavailable, onto unused land away from desirable plants and water courses.
PARTIAL CLEANING (before spraying other labelled or tolerant crops):
After using Lontrel Advanced, empty the tank completely and drain the whole system. Thoroughly wash inside the tank using a pressure hose. Quarter fill the tank with clean water and circulate through the pump, line, hoses and nozzles. Drain and repeat procedure twice.
COMPLETE CLEANING (before spraying crops that are susceptible to residues of Lontrel Advanced).
After using Lontrel Advanced, empty the tank completely and drain the whole system. Thoroughly wash inside the tank using a pressure hose. Quarter fill the tank with clean water and circulate as above, then drain.
Quarter fill the tank again and add a liquid alkali detergent at 500 mL/100 L water and circulate throughout the system for at least 15 minutes. If using a concentrated laundry detergent use 250 g (or mL)/100 L water. Do not use chlorine based cleaners.
Drain, remove filters and nozzles and clean separately.
Rinse inside the tank thoroughly using a pressure hose and flush system with clean water.
These tank cleaning recommendations are for Lontrel only.
Please consult tankmix partner labels to determine requirements for decontamination.
Rinse water should be discharged onto a designated disposal area or, if this is unavailable, onto unused land away from desirable plants and water courses.

RESISTANT WEEDS WARNING
Lontrel Advanced is a member of the pyridines group of herbicides. The product has the disrupters of plant cell growth mode of action. For weed resistance management, the product is a Group I herbicide.
Some naturally occurring weed biotypes resistant to the product and other Group I 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 the product or other Group I herbicides.
Since the occurrence of resistant weeds is difficult to detect prior to use, Dow AgroSciences accepts no liability for any
losses that may result from the failure of the product to control resistant weeds.
Strategies to minimise the risk of herbicide resistance are available. Contact your farm chemical supplier, consultant, local Department of Agriculture, or local Dow AgroSciences representative.
