• 02 - - 07 -

PROTECTION OF CROPS, NATIVE AND OTHER NON-TARGET PLANTS DO NOT apply under weather conditions, or from spraying equipment, that may cause drift onto nearby susceptible plants/crops, cropping lands or pastures. Avoid spray drift and vapour movement onto susceptible crops such as cotton, tobacco, tomatoes, vines, lupine, fruit trees and ornamentals. DO NOT apply be misting machines. Note: Maximum daily temperatures at or above 20°C at application, or on days following treatment, may result in seedling mortality and established plants may be damaged.

PROTECTION OF LIVESTOCK Dangerous to bees. DO NOT spray plants in flower when bees are foraging. Spray in the night or early morning when bees are not actively foraging.

GRAZING PRECAUTION Sprayed weeds may become more palatable to stock and a higher intake of some weeds may result in stock poisoning and death from causes such as nitrate poisoning. Care should be taken especially where capeweed, Paterson’s curse and variegated thistle predominate in the pasture. Avoid grazing with young or breeding stock. DO NOT graze horses or pigs on Paterson’s curse. If in doubt, contact your nearest Department of Agriculture.

PROTECTION OF WILDLIFE, FISH, CRUSTACEANS AND ENVIRONMENT Dangerous to fish. DO NOT contaminate streams, rivers or waterways with the chemical or used containers.

STORAGE AND DISPOSAL Store refillable containers: Store in the closed, original container in a cool, well-ventilated area. DO NOT store for prolonged periods in direct sunlight. Triple or preferably pressure rinse containers before disposal. Add rinsings to spray tank. DO NOT dispose of undiluted chemicals on site. If recycling, replace cap and return clean containers to recycler or designated collection point. If not recycling, break, crush, or puncture and deliver empty packaging for appropriate disposal 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 and product.

Refillable containers: Storage must be secure so that contents cannot be tampered with. All locks and/or seals must be in order. If locks or seals are broken prior to initial use than the integrity of that product cannot be assured. If this occurs PCT Holdings Pty Ltd should be advised immediately. Empty contents fully into application equipment. Close all valves and return the container to the point of purchase for refill or storage.

GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS Before opening, carefully read Directions for Use, Precautionary and Protection Statements, Storage and Disposal, Safety Directions and First Aid Instructions.

MIXING To ensure even mixing, half fill the spray tank with clean water and add the required amount of product. Agitate thoroughly then add the remainder of the water. Agitate again before spraying commences.

APPLICATION DO NOT use rain-drop or air-induction nozzles as coverage of weeds may not be adequate.

Boom Sprayer Calibrate the machine before use to ensure that the correct application rate is obtained. Check height of boom above the crop to ensure that the spray is evenly distributed. Cereals: Apply 50-200 L of water per hectare. Use higher water volume (min. 100L/ha) where the weed infestation is heavy, the crop cover is dense or when tank-mixing with diclofop methyl. Complete coverage of weeds is essential. Linseed: Apply a minimum of 220 L of water per hectare. Turf: Apply a minimum of 500 L of water per hectare.

Aircraft (NSW, Vic, SA only) Apply in a minimum of 22 L water per hectare or 30 L if tank mixing with diclofop methyl. Markers should always move upwind before aircraft passes overhead. Application by micronaire equipment may give variable results.

EQUIPMENT MAINTENANCE After use wash application equipment thoroughly with Spraymate Tank and Equipment Cleaner and rinse several times.

COMPATIBILITY This product is physically compatible in the spray tank with one of the following herbicides or insecticides in wheat and barley only: Metsulfuron methyl (600g/L), diclofop-methyl (500g/L), dicamba (500g/L), MCPA, dimethoate, omethoate, endosulfan or chlorpyrifos. When mixed with metsulfuron methyl or dicamba, DO NOT apply to cereals undersown with lucerne. When mixed with diclofop methyl, DO NOT exceed 1.4L of this product per hectare. Observe all instructions on the mixture partner label. As formulations of other manufacturer’s products are beyond the control of PCT Holdings Pty Ltd, all mixtures should be tested prior to mixing commercial quantities.

Resistant Weeds Warning GROUP I HERBICIDE Surefire Buffalo, Bindi & Broadleaf Weedkiller is a member of both the nitriles and the phenoxys groups of herbicides. Surefire Buffalo, Bindi & Broadleaf Weedkiller has both the inhibitors of photosynthesis at photosystem II and disruptors of plant cell growth mode of action. For weed resistance management Surefire Buffalo, Bindi & Broadleaf Weedkiller is both a Group C and a Group I herbicide. Some naturally occurring weed biotypes resistant to Surefire Buffalo, Bindi & Broadleaf Weedkiller and other Group C and 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 Surefire Buffalo, Bindi & Broadleaf Weedkiller or other Group C or Group I herbicides. Since the occurrence of resistant weeds is difficult to detect prior to use PCT Holdings Pty Ltd accepts no liability for any losses that may result from the failure of Surefire Buffalo, Bindi & Broadleaf Weedkiller to control resistant weeds.
