FOR CONTROL OF BROADLEAF WEEDS AND INVASIVE PLANTS IN RANGELAND AND PASTURE AREAS OF CANADA

DIRECTIONS FOR USE

READ ALL DIRECTIONS CAREFULLY BEFORE APPLYING. FAILURE TO FOLLOW LABEL INSTRUCTIONS MAY RESULT IN ERRATIC WEED CONTROL OR CROP DAMAGE.

GENERAL USE PRECAUTIONS
Avoid spray drift to any desirable vegetation as damage may occur. Avoid contamination of ponds, streams, rivers and other water sources. Do not spray during periods of high winds when spray is likely to drift. Coarse sprays are less likely to drift. Do not spray during periods of high temperatures when desirable vegetation may be under stress as damage to the desirable vegetation may occur. Applications should be avoided under conditions of drought or other environmental stresses.
For best results, apply Restore II Herbicide to young weeds that are actively growing at time of application.
Restore II Herbicide is highly active against broadleaf plants. This product is recommended for use on areas where loss of broadleaf forage plants, including legumes, can be tolerated.

Sensitive Plants
Restore II Herbicide works primarily through uptake by plant foliage and translocation throughout the plant. However, secondary herbicide activity may occur through soil uptake of the aminopyralid component of Restore II Herbicide. Very small amounts of aminopyralid can kill or damage sensitive broadleaf plants. Only spray pastures if injury to existing forage legumes can be tolerated. Care should be taken to avoid spraying desirable broadleaved plants during both growing and dormant periods.
Avoid application within the dripline (outermost edge of the tree canopy) of desirable coniferous and deciduous trees unless injury can be tolerated. Use special caution when using aminopyralid-based products around species with extensive lateral root systems, shallow rooting species and those that propagate vegetatively through layering.
Clippings or hay from vegetation which has been treated with aminopyralid should not be used for composting or mulching. Aminopyralid residues pass through animals unchanged and are still herbicidally active. The manure from animals grazing treated areas or fed treated hay should not be used around susceptible plants. Do not transfer livestock from treated grazing areas onto broadleaf crop areas without first allowing 3 days of grazing on untreated grass pasture.
Do not apply more than 2.4 L/ha of Restore II Herbicide per annual growing season to rangeland and pasture.
Only one application per growing season is permitted.
Restore II Herbicide cannot be applied on domestic or commercial turf grass.

- DO NOT contaminate irrigation/drinking water supplies or aquatic habitats by cleaning of equipment or disposal of wastes.

Field sprayer application
DO NOT apply during periods of dead calm. Avoid application of this product when winds are gusty. DO NOT apply with spray droplets smaller than the American Society of Agricultural Engineers (ASAE) coarse classification. Boom height must be 60 cm or less above the crop or ground.

Aerial application
DO NOT apply during periods of dead calm. Avoid application of this product when winds are gusty. DO NOT apply when wind speed is greater than 16 km/h at flying height at the site of application. DO NOT apply with spray droplets smaller than the American Society of Agricultural Engineers (ASAE) coarse classification. To reduce drift caused by turbulent wingtip vortices, the nozzle distribution along the spray boom length MUST NOT exceed 65% of the wing- or rotorspan. Nozzles must always point backward parallel with the air stream and never be pointed downwards more than 45 degrees.

Spray Equipment Precautions
Clean all spray equipment thoroughly before use. Select nozzle tips to apply the recommended volume per hectare. Higher water volumes will reduce the risk of crop injury. Calibrate the sprayer and adjust the boom height to ensure uniform coverage.
Nozzles must be in good condition and spraying the same volume. Flat fat nozzle tips are recommended.

Equipment Clean-Up
Thoroughly clean the herbicide sprayer before applying any other chemical on crops that may be damaged (see GENERAL USE PRECAUTIONS). Wash the outside of the sprayer and drain the tank completely. Remove and clean filters, screens and nozzle tips separately. Fill the sprayer tank with clean water. With the agitator running flush out the lines and boom, then drain. Fill the sprayer with clean water and for each 100L add 1 L household ammonia. Operate the pump and agitator for 15 minutes. If possible, let the solution remain in the tank and hoses overnight; recirculate and flush out the lines and boom, then drain. Rinse out twice with clean water, recirculating and draining each time. DO NOT contaminate irrigation or drinking water when cleaning the sprayer.
