General Instructions: MIXING

THOR 250EC is an emulsifiable concentrate, which mixes readily with water. Agitate the drum thoroughly before opening. Add the required quantity of THOR 250EC directly to the spray tank when about two-thirds full of water. Top up with water to the required volume, with agitators in motion.

EQUIPMENT

Standard low pressure (170 to 340 kPa) boom sprayers only are recommended and must be fitted with by-pass or mechanical agitation. It is recommended to use 50 to 100 L water/ha. DO NOT apply with boomless jets or misters. Poor weed control may result if directions are not closely followed. Overlapping or using higher than recommended application rates may result in crop injury or excessive soil residues.

INCORPORATION

Thorough incorporation of THOR 250EC to a depth of 4 cm within 4 hours of application, followed by the sowing process, will give superior control of weeds to that achieved by incorporation by the sowing process alone.

DIRECT SEEDING APPLICATION

Add the recommended amount of THOR 250EC and the label recommended quantity of a suitable knockdown herbicide, such as paraquat, combinations of paraquat and diquat or glyphosate, to water in the spray tank during the filling operation. (Note: When THOR 250EC is tank mixed with glyphosate or paraquat/diquat mixtures, the mixture should be kept thoroughly agitated and sprayed within one (1) hour of mixing).

Resistance Warning: GROUP D HERBICIDE

THOR 250EC is a member of the dinitroanilines group of herbicides. This product has the inhibitors of tubulin formation mode of action. For weed resistance management, the product is Group D herbicide. Some naturally occurring weed biotypes resistant to the product and other Group D 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 this product or other Group D herbicides.

Since the occurrence of resistant weeds is difficult to detect prior to use, Imtrade Australia Pty Ltd accepts no liability for any losses that may result from the failure of THOR 250EC to control resistant weeds.

Precautions: Protections: 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.

PROTECTION OF WILDLIFE, FISH, CRUSTACEANS AND ENVIRONMENT

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

Storage and Disposal:

Store in the closed, original container in a cool, well-ventilated area. DO NOT store for prolonged periods in direct sunlight. Triple rinse containers before disposal. Add rinsings to the spray tank. DO NOT dispose of undiluted chemicals on-site. If recycling, replace the cap and return clean containers to the 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.

Envirodrum – Micro Matic Valve (60L, 110L)

Store the original sealed Envirodrum in a cool well-ventilated area. DO NOT store for prolonged periods in direct sunlight. DO NOT tamper with the Micro Matic valve or the security seal. DO NOT contaminate the Envirodrum with water or any foreign matter. After each use, hoses are disconnected, triple rinsed with clean water, and drained accordingly. When the contents of the Envirodrum have been used, please return the Envirodrum to the point of purchase. For refillable containers: empty contents fully into application equipment. Close all valves and return to the point of supply for refill or storage.

SMALL SPILL MANAGEMENT

Wear protective equipment (see Safety Directions). Apply absorbent material such as earth, sand, clay, granules, or cat litter to the spill. Sweep up material for disposal when absorption is completed and contain in a refuse vessel for disposal (see Storage and Disposal section). If necessary wash the spill area with an alkali detergent and water and absorb the wash liquid for disposal as described above.

Safety Directions: Harmful if swallowed. Poisonous if inhaled. Will damage eyes. May irritate the nose and throat. Will irritate the skin. Repeated exposure may cause allergic disorders. Avoid contact with eyes and skin. DO NOT inhale spray mist. When opening the container and preparing the spray, wear cotton overalls buttoned to the neck and wrist, a washable hat, elbow-length chemical-resistant gloves, goggles, and a half-piece respirator. When using the prepared spray wear cotton overalls buttoned to the neck and wrist, a washable hat and elbow-length chemical-resistant gloves. If product in eyes, wash it out immediately with water. If product on skin, immediately wash the area with soap and water. After use and before eating, drinking, or smoking, wash hands, arms, and face thoroughly with soap and water.
