G INSTRUCTIONS 1. Fill [he tank t/~ to yr full of water. 2. While agitating, add the required amount of ESCORTa XP. 3. Continue agitation until the ESCORT° XP is fully dispersed, at ]east 5 minute 4. Once the ESCORT' XP is fully dispersed, maimain agimtion and continu filling tank with water. ESCOR7° XP should be thoroughly mixed with war before adding any other material. 5. As the tank is filling, add tank mix partners (if desired) then add the necessa volume of nonionic surfacmnt. Always add surfacmnC last 6. If the mixture is not continuously agitated, settling will occur. If settling ecru thoroughly re-agimte before using. 7. ESCORTS XP spmy preparations are smble if they are pH neutral or alkalis and stored at or below 1 OD'F. - 8. If ESCORT XP and a tank mix partner are to be applied in multiple loads pre-slurry the ESCOR'I~ XP in clean water prior m adding to the tank. Thi will prevent the tank mix partner from inteifeting with the dissolution of dt ESCOR'1® XP. SPRAYER CLEANUP spmy equipment must be cleaned before ESCOR'I® XP is sprayed. Fallow th cleanup procedures specified on the labels of previously applied products. If n directions are provided, follow [he six steps outlined below. A7 the End of the Day When multiple loads of ESCOR'Ta XP herbicide are applied, it is recommend that a[ the end of each day of spraying, tfie interior of the mnk be rinsed with fresh water and then pattially tilled, aad the boom and hoses flushed. This will prcven the buildup of dried pesticide deposits that can accumulate in the application equipment 1. Drain tank; thoroughly rinse spmy tanks, boom, and hoses with clean water. Loosen and physically remove any visible deposits. 2. Fill the tank with clean water and 1 gal of household ammonia• (conmins 3% active) for every 100 gal of wattr. Flush me hoses, boom, and nozzles with me cleaning solution. Then add more water to completely fill the mnk. Cimulate the cleaning solution through the tank and hoses for at Least ] 5 min. Flush the hoses, boom, and noales again with the cleaning solution, and then dints the mnk. emove the noales and smeens and clean separately vt a bucket conmining leaning agent and watez. . Repeat step 2. 5. Rinse the mnk, boom, and hoses wiW clean water. 6. if only Ammonia is used as a cleaner, the rissole solution may be applied back to the crop(s) recommended on this label. Do not exceed the maximum labeled use rote. If other cleaners arc used, consul[ the cleaner label for rinsate disposal ins[rucdons. If no instrucdons arc given, dispose of the rissole on site or at an approved waste disposal facility- " Equivalentamouna elan ahemato-so-engthammoniasoludon ar eDuPont-approveddeantt can be aced in the cleanout proeedare.

Notes; 1- Attention: Do not use chlorine bleach witb ammonia, as dangerous gases will farm, Do not clean equipment in an enclosed area. 2. Steam-cleaning aerial spmy ranks is recommended prior to performing the above cleanout procedure to facilimte the removal of any caked deposits. 3. When DuPOntTM ESCOR"1® XP is mnk mixed with other pesticides, all inquired cleanoutprocedures should beexamined and the most rigorous procedure should be followed. 4. In addition to this cleanout procedure, all precleanout guidelines on subse- quently applied products should be Followed as per the individual labels. SPRAY DRIFT MANAGEMENT The intemcdon of many equipment and weather-related factors determines the poteata7 for spmy drift. The applicmor is responsible for considering all these factors when making application decisions. AVOIDING SPRAY DRIFT' IS THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE APPLICA- TOR IMPORTANCE OF DROPLET SIZE The most effective way [o educe drift potential is to apply large droplets (>li0- 200 microns). The best drift management strategy is to apply the largest droplets that provide Sufficient covemge and covvol. The presence of sensitive species nearby, the environroenml conditions, and pest pressure may affect how an ap- plicator balances drift control and covemge. APPLYING LARGER DROPLETS REDUCES DRIFT POTENTL42., BUT WILL NOT PREVENT DRIFT 1F AP- CATIONS ARE MADE IMPROPERLY OR UNDER UNFAVORABLE EN- ONMENTAL CONDITIONSI See Wind, Temperature and Humidity, and emperature Im~ersions sections of this label. Corrtro!ling Droplet Site-General Technynes . Volume-Use high flow rote nozzles to apply the highest practical spmy nob ume. Nozzles with higher rated flaws produce larger droplets. Database and format copyright ©by C&P Press.. All rights reserved, to • Pressure-Use the Jower spmy pressures recommended for the nozzle. Higher pressure reduces droplet size and does not improve canopy pencvation. WHEN at HIGHER FLOW RATES ARE NEEDED, USE AHIGHER-CAPACITY NOZ- ZLE INSTEAD OF INCREASING PRESSURE. • Nozzle Tvpe-Use a nozzle type that is designed for the intrnded application. With most nozzle types, nartowcr spmy angles produce larger droplets, Consider using lowdtiR nozzles. Controlling Droplet Sire Aircraft 6. e • Number of Nozzles-Use the minimum number of noales with the highut cr flow rote that provide uniform coverage. • Neale Orientation-0riendng noales so that the spmy is emitted backwards, ry parallel to the airsveam will produce larger droplets titan other orientatims. • Neale Type-Solid sveam nozzles (such as disc and core with swirl plate rs, removed) oriented straight back produce larger droplets than other nozzle types. • Boom Length-The boom length should not exceed k, of the wing or roar e length-longer booms increase drift potential. • Applicadov Height-Application more than 10 ft above the canopy increases the potential for spray drift. ~ 800M HEIGHT Setting the boom at the lowest labeled height (if specified) whilh provides un$orm covemge reduces the exposure of droplets to evaporation and wind. For ground c equipment, the boom should remain Ieve7 with [he crop and have minimal bounce. o WIND Drift potential increases at wind speeds of less than 3 mph (due to inversion potential) or more than ]0 mph. However, many facmrs, including droplet size ~ and equipment type determine drift potential at any given wind speed. AVOID GUSTY OR WINDLESS CONDTITONS. r Note: Local mmmin can influence wind patterns. Every applicator should be - familiar with local wind patterns and haw [hey affect spmy drift TEMPERATURE AND HUMIDITY When making applications in hot and dry conditions, se[ up equipment ro produce largez droplets m reduce effects of evaporation. TEMPERATURE INVERSIONS Drill potential is high during a tempemmre inversion. Tempemmre inversions restrict vertical av mixrng, which causes small suspended droplets to remain close ro the ground and move laterally in a concentrated cloud. Tempemmr< inversions am characterized by increasing temperature with altitude and are common on nights with Imrited cloud cover and light to no wind. They begin ro form as the sun sets aad often continue into the rooming. Their presence can be indicated by ground fog; however, if fog is not presrnS inversions can also be identified by the movement of smoke from a ground source or an aircraft smoke gencmtor. Smoke that layers and moves laterally in a concentrated cloud (under low wind conditions) indicates an inversion, while smoke that moves upwazd and rapidly dissipates indicates good vertical air mixing. SHIELDED SPRAYERS Shicltling the boom or individual noales can reduce the effects ofwind. However, it is the responsibility of the applicator to verify that the shields are preventing drift and not interfering with uniform deposition of the product USE PRECAUTIONS Injury to or loss of desirable tree or other plants may result from failure m observe the following, • If equipment is drained or flushed on or near desirable trees or other plan6, or on areas whore their room may extend, or in locations where the chemical may . tie washed or moved into contain with their roots. • Treatment of powdery, dry soil or light, sandy soil when there is little likelihood ofminfall soon treanment may result in offtargetroovement andpossibl<damage to svscepable crops when sail particles are moved by wind oc water. ]njury m corps may result tf vested soil is washed, blown, or moved onm ]and used m produce crops. Exposure [o DuPontTM ESCOR'I® XP may injure or kill most crops. Injtvy may be more severe when the crops are irrigated. • Applications made where runoff water flows onto agricultural land may injure crops. Applications made during periods of intense rainfall, to soils saNmted with wamq surfaces paved with materials such as asphalt or concrete, or soils through which rainfall will not readily penetrate may result in runoff and movement of ESCORT° XP. Do not treat frozen soil. Treated soil should be lefr undisturbed to reduce [he potential for ESCORTo XP movement by soil erosion due to wind or water. ~ . • Do not use on lawns, walks, driveways, tennis courts or similaz areas. • Do not apply through any type of irzigadon rystem. • Do not use the equipment used to mix ar apply ESCORT" XP on crops {except pasmra, range and wheat). The mixing and application equipment maybe used for nonerop areas and conifer plantations only. • When used as directed, there is no grazing restriction for use rotes of 1 r/e ounce per acre and less: At use rotes of l Yr to 3 Vi ounce per acre forage grosses may be cut for hay, fodder or green forage and fed to livesmck, inciudmg lacmting animals, 3 days after treatment • Do not use this product in the following counties of Colorado: Saguache, Rio Gmnda, Ammosa, Costilla and Conejos. • Do not use this product in California.
