GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
WIPE-OUT Accelerate is a non-volatile, non-selective, water soluble liquid herbicide for the control of annual and perennial grasses and broadleaf weeds in a wide range of agricultural and non-agricultural use situations.
WIPE-OUT Accelerate may be used for weed control on agricultural land prior to planting any edible or non-edible crop but not prior to transplanting tomatoes.
When applying this product prior to transplanting crops into plastic mulch, care must be taken to remove residues of this product from the plastic prior to transplanting.
Residues can be removed by 2 cm of natural rainfall or by applying water via a sprinkler irrigation system.
WIPE-OUT Accelerate is absorbed by plant foliage and green stems.
It is inactivated on clay and organic matter in soil and does not provide residual weed control.
WIPE-OUT Accelerate moves through the plant from the point of contact throughout the plant. Initial 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.

RESISTANT WEEDS WARNING
WIPE-OUT® Accelerate is a member of the Glycines group of herbicides. WIPE-OUT Accelerate has the inhibition of EPSP synthase mode of action. For weed resistance management WIPE-OUT Accelerate is a Group M herbicide.
Some naturally-occurring weed biotypes resistant to WIPE-OUT Accelerate and other Group M 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 may not be controlled by WIPE-OUT Accelerate or other Group M herbicides.
Since the occurrence of resistant weeds is difficult to detect prior to use, Adama Australia Pty. Ltd. accepts no liability for any losses that may result from the failure of WIPE-OUT Accelerate to control resistant weeds.

CROP ESTABLISHMENT
WIPE-OUT Accelerate is recommended for control of emerged weeds prior to crop establishment. Cultivation and/or planting operations which provide conditions suitable for crop emergence and establishment are required following herbicide application. Where heavy weed growth is present or soil conditions are unsuitable, planting should be delayed to allow for decay of weeds and/or development of more favourable soil conditions for the formation of a suitable seedbed. Incorporation of green or decaying vegetation may retard crop emergence under cold, wet conditions. Vegetation may be reduced by grazing and weed decay assisted by cultivation to leave trash on the soil surface.

MIXING
WIPE-OUT Accelerate mixes readily with water. Reduced results may occur if water containing suspended clay or organic matter is used e.g. from dams, streams and irrigation channels, or a high level of calcium, magnesium or bicarbonate ions.
DO NOT mix, store or apply 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. Ensure that the spray tank is free of any residue of other spray solutions prior to mixing. Use spray solutions promptly as a gradual loss of activity may occur over a period of days following spray preparation.
Mixing Instructions:
1. Fill the spray tank 1/3 to 1/2 full clean water and start agitation.
2. If adding ammonium sulphate, use a 2% v/v and mix thoroughly.
3. If tank-mixing, add recommended herbicide/insecticide/additive to the spray tank and mix thoroughly.
4. Add WIPE-OUT Accelerate and the remaining water. Mix thoroughly.
5. Add Wetspray 1000 or Pulse Penetrant or an approved 1040 g/L Octyl Phenol Ethoxylate surfactant, if required, near the end of the filling process.
6. Always maintain adequate agitation during application and use the tank mix promptly.
Clean all equipment after use by washing thoroughly with water.

TANK MIXTURES
WIPE-OUT Accelerate may be tank-mixed with the following herbicides, insecticides and adjuvants. Read and follow all label directions, restraints, plant-back and withholding periods, and safety directions for the tank-mix products. In multiple product tank mixes a minimum water volume of 50 L/ha is recommended and local advice should be sought. Correct mixing order is important as in good in-tank agitation when application/spraying is occuring.
Herbicides: LV Ester 600 (2,4-D ester), Zulu 300 (2,4-D isopropylamine), Lynx® WG, Affinity*, Avadex* Xtra, Cameo, Cavalier (oxyfluorfen), Cutlass (dicamba), Duet, Express*, Eclipse*, Farmozine 900 WDG, Simazine 900 WDG (atrazine/simazine flowable or granular), MCPA LVE, Flagship, Flame*, Garlon* 600, Hammer*, Lonestar, Logran* B Power (ensure fully dispersed prior to addition of WIPE-OUT Accelerate), Pendimethex, Safari, Tackle, Trilogy (trifluralin), Victory. The addition of Cavalier at 75 mL/ha to recommended rates of WIPE-OUT Accelerate prior to planting winter cereals will improve knockdown of certain weeds.
Insecticides: This Product is compatible with the following insecticides Alpha-Scud® Elite, Dimethoate 400, Fenitrothion 1000, Gusathion*, Karate*, Le mat*, Metasystox*, Scud Elite, Strike-Out 500EC, Venom 100EC. Other brands have not been tested.
As formulations of other products are beyond the control of Adama, all mixtures should be tested prior to mixing commercial quantities.
Adjuvants - an approved 1040 g/L Octyl Phenol Ethoxylate surfactant:
an approved 1040 g/L Octyl Phenol Ethoxylate surfactant is recommended for the control of Silver Grass and Annual Ryegrass in late Winter and Spring. An approved 1040 g/L Octyl Phenol Ethoxylate surfactant is not a general purpose surfactant and should only be used where recommended. Rate: 200 mL/100 L spray solution.
Adjuvants – Pulse Penetrant: Pulse Penetrant is recommended for the control of Bracken and many woody weeds.
Rate: 200 mL/100 L spray solution.
Adjuvants – Ammonium Sulphate: Crystalline (or solution) ammonium sulfate may be used as an adjuvant to alleviate the adverse effects of high levels of calcium, magnesium and bicarbonate ions in water.
Rate: 2 L/100 L spray solution.

APPLICATION
Boom Equipment: For boom application, a spray volume of 80 L/ha or less is recommended for optimum performance. Nozzles and pressure settings should be selected to deliver a MEDIUM or MEDIUM-COARSE size droplet at the target (BCPC - British Crop Protection Council Standard). The use of nozzles and/or pressure settings that produce VERY FINE or FINE droplets should be avoided as these are prone to loss or drift. In multiple product tank mixes a minimum water volume of 50 L/ha is recommended and local advice should be sought. Correct mixing order is important as in good in-tank agitation when application is occurring.
For shielded applications a spray volume of 80 L/ sprayed ha is recommeneded using nozzle types and pressure settings to deliver a COARSE (BCPC) size droplet at the target. Crop damage may result if spray drift occurs through incorrect nozzle and/or pressure selection, inadequate shielding and/or wind strength, high evaporation rates or excessive ground speed.
Wiper Equipment: Wiper equipment (eg. Ropewick, canvas, felt or carpet applicators) may be used to apply WIPE-OUT Accelerate. Avoid contact with desirable vegetation. Operate wiper equipment a minimum of 10 cm above the crop or pasture. Weeds should be at least 15 cm above the crop or pasture at time of application. Speed of travel should be no greater than 8 km/h. Best results are achieved at lower speeds and where two applications are made in opposite directions (double pass). Where weeds are of variable height, or occur in dense infestations or clumps, some plants may not be contacted by the herbicide solution. In these cases repeat treatment may be necessary.
Rate: Mix 700 mL WIPE-OUT Accelerate with 2.3 litres clean water. Adjust flow rate to suit equipment.
Aerial Equipment: WIPE-OUT Accelerate may be applied by aircraft for control of weeds in forests, cropland or pasture prior to establishment of crops, new pastures or new forest plantings and for pre-harvest applications up to a maximum rate of 2.7 L/ha where specified by this label.
DO NOT apply treatments by aircraft in situations where drift onto sensitive crops and pastures is likely to occur.
Apply treatments using boom or micronaire equipment using a spray volume not less than 20 L/ha and using settings to produce a median droplet diameter of 250-350 microns. In multiple product tank mixes a minimum water volume of 50 L/ha is recommended and local advice should be sought. Correct mixing order is important. Swath width should be set to take into account aircraft type, wind conditions and target height. Swath width will need to be reduced to avoid striping under light wind conditions and/or application to tall, dense targets e.g. preharvest application, treatments in heavy crop stubble.
Thoroughly wash aircraft after each day of spraying to remove herbicide residues.
Application in Hilly Terrain: Increase water volume to 30-80 L/ha and increase median droplet diameter of output to at least 300 microns to optimise deposition of spray output onto weeds.
Air Temperature and Relative Humidity: DO NOT apply WIPE-OUT Accelerate by aircraft at temperatures above 30˚C. Increase spray output to at least 30 L/ha when temperatures rise above 25˚C. Avoid application when relative humidity falls below 35%.

AVOID DRIFT
DO NOT apply treatments with spraying equipment or under weather conditions which are likely to cause spray drift onto nearby susceptible crops, pastures or other sensitive plants.
DO NOT apply treatments under very light (< 4 km/h) or inversion conditions or where wind speeds exceed 12 km/h.

APPLICATION CHECKLIST
DO NOT treat weeds under poor growing conditions due to moisture stress, waterlogging, severe frosting, insect damage etc.
Reduced performance may also occur where weeds are covered with dust or silt.
DO NOT add surfactants, adjuvants or other pesticides except as specifically directed on this label.
Rain within 1 hour of application which causes run-off may require retreatment. Rainfastness is reduced if weeds are not actively growing, under stress or conditions of low light intensity/darkness.
The addition of an approved 1040 g/L Octyl Phenol Ethoxylate surfactant may improve rainfastness on winter annual weeds. A withholding period for grazing is not required. However, it is recommended that grazing of treated plants be delayed to ensure herbicide uptake.
Certain plants such as Soursob, Variegated Thistle, Sorghum and Johnson Grass may be naturally toxic to stock when eaten in large quantities under certain conditions.
Where plants are known to be toxic, grazing should be delayed until complete dessication of treated plants has occurred.
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.
If heavy grazing has occurred, allow regrowth to 6-8 cm before spraying and use the higher rates recommended.

PRECAUTIONS
DO NOT use human flaggers/markers unless they are protected by engineering controls such as enclosed cabs.
Re-entry Period: DO NOT enter treated areas until spray has dried. When prior entry is necessary, wear personal protective equipment as specified in the Safety Directions.
