IF IN EYES: Rinse cautiously with water for at least 15 minutes. Remove contact lenses, if present and easy to do. Continue rinsing.

Induce vomiting if swallowed and send to hospital with the label.

Dispose of contents/container to a licensed hazardous waste disposal contractor or collection site except for empty, clean containers which can be disposed of as non-hazardous waste.

Antidote: Subcutaneous or intravenous injection with atropine 1-5mg.

DIRECTIONS FOR USE

Use only as directed.

Before applying LI DAO it is advisable to wait until the majority of the grass weeds are within the optimum stages for control as mentioned in the "Weeds controlled and LI DAO dose rates" list. Since LI DAO has a limited soil residual action, the weeds to be controlled must have emerged before applying LI DAO.

COMPATIBILITY

Do not mix or apply LI DAO with any other additives, pesticides or fertilizers.

USE RESTRICTIONS

Apply LI DAO only on actively growing grass weeds which are within the recommended growth stages as stipulated under "Weeds controlled and LI DAO dose rates". Do not apply to plants/weeds that are stressed from whatever cause, e.g. moisture or temperature extremes, insect damage, nutrient deficiencies, herbicide carry over or wind damage.

Allow at least 4 days after LI DAO application, before applying any other treatment.

Where follow-up crops are to be planted after LI DAO applications, apply the following safety periods:

·Broadleaf crops None

·Maize (at 0.375 L/ha) 7 Days

·Maize (at rates >0.5 L/ha), other grains and grass crops 1 Month

Rain or irrigation within 1 hour after a LI DAO application may necessitate a second application.

Thorough and uniform spray coverage over the entire leaf area of the target plant is necessary for optimum weed control, especially where the crop is very dense. LI DAO has been tested on the most important crop varieties which were commercially used at the date of registration. Do not apply LI DAO to large areas of newly released cultivars before consulting your local LI DAO representative or distributor, or prior phytotoxicity testing.

MIXING INSTRUCTIONS

Shake the LI DAO container thoroughly just before use. Close the container tightly after use.

Thoroughly clean the sprayer by flushing the system with water containing detergent before spraying. Half fill the spray tank with clean water and add the required quantity of LI DAO as recommended below. Then fill the tank to the required volume with clean water, ensuring thorough agitation. Do not allow the mixture to stand overnight. Thoroughly flush out spraying equipment at the end of the spraying operation.

GROUND APPLICATION

LI DAO can be applied with conventional ground equipment (tractor mounted sprayers, knapsack sprayers) capable of producing a uniform spray distribution. Flat fan nozzles are recommended. Use a low spray pressure (100–200 kPa) so that LI DAO is applied as a coarse droplet spray. Ensure thorough coverage of the weeds by applying at least 150L of spray mixture per hectare. Do not spray during severe drought or when the area to be treated is severely waterlogged, thus restricting the growth of the crops and weeds. LI DAO controls the grass species as indicated in the "Weeds controlled" table. Other grass species that were not present during the development trials of the product could possibly also be controlled to a certain degree. The registration holder does not accept any responsibility for unlisted weeds.

PRECAUTIONS

1.Do not inhale spray mist.

2. Wear protective clothing when handling or applying product.

3. Wash contaminated clothing daily.

4. Wash yourself after use or accidental skin contact.

5. In case of eye contact, rinse immediately with running water.

6. Do not eat, drink or smoke whilst mixing or applying, or before washing hands and face and changing clothes.

7. Avoid spray drift onto other crops, grazing, rivers, dams and areas not under treatment.

8. Clean applicator thoroughly after use and dispose of wash water where it will not contaminate crops, grazing, rivers or dams.

9. Rinse the container three times with a volume of water equal to a minimum of 10% of the container. Add the rinsing to the contents of the spray tank before destroying the empty container by perforation and flattening. Do not use empty container for any other purpose.

10. Prevent contamination of food, feeds, drinking water and eating utensils.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

FOR PROFESSIONAL USE ONLY AS AN AGRICULTURAL HERBICIDES.

Application rates:

Weeds controlled and LI DAO dose rates

Note: For optimal Cynodon control thorough pre-spray tillage operations are required to break up the sward, thereby diminishing the underground root mass. Apply LI DAO once Cynodon regrowth contains approximately 2-6 leaves.

IMPORTANT NOTES

1. Poor weed control may result if LI DAO is applied when the weeds have been subjected to moisture stress or any other stress. Apply only during moist conditions, when the weeds are actively growing.

2. Weeds that have not emerged at the time of application will not be controlled by LI DAO.

3. Under certain conditions LI DAO may cause some crinkling and cupping of emerging Eucalyptus leaves. However, this is normally of a transitory nature and growth will not be significantly affected.
