Always wear gloves when handling ag-
rochemicals and equipment.
Always use the correct equipment when
mixing and measuring.
MIXING, FILLING AND CALIBRATION
Mixing and filling is generally the most hazardous process in the spraying operation.
Always
follow the label instructions. Always use a filter (fitted in the Micron
Miropak backpacks) and use a funnel if filling a container with a small neck. Only
mix enough spray for the area to be treated thereby avoiding the need for disposal of
unused spray mix.
Always wash off any skin
contamination
Always clean all equipment after use.
With the HERBI 4 herbicides are usually applied in around 20 litres total spray volume
per hectare, except for glyphosate which can be applied at volumes as low as 10 litres
per hectare. These are lower volumes than recommended for high volume application
with knapsack sprayers.
