GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS

The product is a pre- and post-emergence herbicide for controlling certain broad-leaved weeds and grasses. For post-emergence applications, weeds should be at the seedling to 4-leaf stage. Prior to sowing any follow-up crops other than beet or ryegrass, thoroughly till treated areas, including ploughing.

  1. BEET CROPS:

    • Slight foliage distortion may occur; short-lived effects do not affect crop yield.
    • Pre-emergence treatment can be followed by post-emergence Betanal* application.
  2. USE OF SCANNER 500 SC IN MIXTURE WITH Betanal ON BEET CROPS:

    • Carefully read Betanal label; note warnings in temperatures above 30°C.
    • Recommended for wider spectrum post-emergence weed control.
    • Apply at least six (6) hours before rainfall or irrigation.
  3. RYEGRASS:

    • Reduces clover stands by 40-60%.
    • For barley grass control, apply to closely grazed pasture (3-5 cm high).
    • Remove organic matter; retreatment may be necessary.
    • In dense barley grass areas, drill or oversow with ryegrass soon after treatment.
  4. TURF:

    • Apply before or early after Winter Grass germination in fine turf situations.
    • Selective in various grass types when applied as directed.
    • Monthly applications for 3-4 months control Winter Grass without affecting desirable turf.
    • No oversowing or reseeding within one month of spraying.

MIXING

  • SCANNER 500 SC is a suspension concentrate; gently invert or roll container before pouring.
  • Part-fill the spray tank with clean water, add the correct amount of SCANNER 500 SC, and top up with water.
  • Thorough agitation is necessary before spraying.
  • Mix only enough chemical for immediate use.
  • When mixing with Betanal, stir while adding required quantities, and use as soon as possible.

APPLICATION

  • Apply in a suitable volume of water for even coverage.
  • For pre-emergence, apply to moist soil surface.
  • Set nozzles at the correct height (50-60 cm above pasture or crop).
  • Use a fine spray (200-300 kPa); clean, undamaged, and correct type/size nozzles.
  • Do not use impact nozzles or broadcast nozzle clusters.
  • Wash equipment thoroughly after use.

RESISTANT WEEDS WARNING

  • SCANNER 500 SC is a Group J herbicide; manage weed resistance.
  • Some weed biotypes may be resistant to SCANNER 500 SC; monitor for resistance.

  • DO NOT contaminate waterways with the chemical or used containers.
  • Store in a cool, well-ventilated area; avoid prolonged sunlight exposure.
  • Rinse containers before disposal; follow proper waste management practices.
