General Use Precautions

The state of Arizona has not approved Pathfinder II for use on plants grown for commercial production; specifically forests grown for commercial timber production, or on designated grazing areas.

Apply this product only as spE!cified on this label.

Qe Ret l::Jse fer R13Rl:lfaStI::lRR8 ElF fefR:ll::llatiRg.

Do not apply this product through any type of irrigation system.

It is permissible to treat non-irrigation ditch banks, seasonally dry wetlands, flood plains, deltas, marshes, swamps, bogs, and transitional areas between upland and lowland sites. Do not apply to open water (such as lakes, reservoirs, rivers, streams, creeks, salt water bays or estuaries) nor to water present in fresh water wetlands, deltas, marshes, swamps, bogs or potholes, or to salt water marshes below the mean high water mark.

Do not apply Pathfinder II herbicide directly to, or otherwise permit it to come into direct contact with grapes, tobacco, vegetable cr,ops, flowers or other desirable broad leaf plants, and do not permit spray mists containing it to drift onto them.

Avoid Injurious Spray Drift: Applications should be made only when there is little or no hazard from spray drift. Very small quantities of spray, which may not be visible, may seriously injure susceptible plants. Do not spray when wind is blowing toward susceptible crops or omamental plants near enough to be injured.

With ground equipment, spray drift can be reduced by using spray pressures no greater than are required to obtain adequate coverage; by using large droplet producing nozzle tips; and by spraying when wind velocity is low. Do not apply with nozzles that produce a fine droplet spray. Do not apply with an orchard type mist blower.

Do not apply on snow or frozen ground.

Untreated trees occasionally can be affected by movement of the herbicide through root grafting with the treated trees.

Since this herbicide moves within the treated plant, do not use Pathfinder II on parts of a multiple stem plant if injury to the untreated portions (cut or standing stems) cannot be tolerated.

Do not apply on ditches used to transport irrigation water. Do not apply where runoff or irrigation water may flow onto agriculturallancl as injury to crops may result

Be sure that use of this produ(;t conforms to all applicable regulations.

Agricultural Use Requirements for Forest Use: For the follOWing crop and forestry uses, follow PPE and Reentry instructions in the "Agricultural Use Requirements" section of this label.

Non-crop Uses Such As Rights-of-Way, Industrial Sites, Rangeland and Permanent Pastures, Non-irrigation Ditch Banks and Wildlife Openings,

Use Requirements for Non-cI'opland Areas: No Worker Protection Standard worker entry restrictions or worker notification requirements apply when this product is applied to non-cropland areas.

Low Volume Basal Bark Treatment To control susceptible woody p'ants with stems less than 6 inches in basal diameter, apply Pathfinder II with a backpack or ~napsack sprayer using low pressure and a solid cone or flat fan nozzle. Spray the basal parts of brusr and tree tnmks in a manner which thoroughly wets the lower 12 to 15 inches of stems, including the root collar area, but not to the point of runoff. Herbicide concentration should vary with size and susceptibility of species treated. Apply at any time, including the winter months, except when snow or water prevent spraying to the ground line.

Treatment of Cut Stumps To control resprouting, apply urdiluted Pathfinder II to wet the area adjacent to the cambium and bark around the entire CIrcumference, and the sides of cut stumps. Sides of stumps should be thoroughly wetted down to :he -oot collar area, but not to the point of runoff. Treatments may be applied throughout the year. except when snow or water prevent spraying to the ground line. Control may be reduced with treatment dUring penods of moisture stress as in late summer.

Streamline Basal Bark Treatment (Southern States) To control or suppress susceptible woody plants for conifer release or in ran~eland and pasture, apply Pathfinder II With a backpack or knapsack sprayer using equipment which provides a directed straight­stream spray. ApDlv sufficient spray to one side of stems less than 3 inches in basal diameter to form a treated zone that ,s 3 inches in height. When the optimum amount of spray mixture IS applied, the treated zone should Widen to encircle trle stem within approximately 30 minutes. Treat both sides of stems which are 3 to 4 inches In Jasal diameter. Direct the spray at bark that is approximately 12 to 24 inches above ground. ?'nes (,001011'1. slash, shortleaf, and Virginia) up to 2 Inches In diameter breast height (dbh) can be contrclled by directing the spray at the point approximately 4 feet above ground. Best results are achieved wnen acpllcations are made to young vigorously growing stems which have not developed the thicker bark characteristic of slower growing, understory trees in older stands. This technique is not recommended for scrub and livEl oak species, including blackjack. turkey, post. live, bluejack and laurel oaks. Acely frem aoproxlmately 6 weeks prior to hardwood leaf expansion in the spring until approxlmatelv 2 :T1enths after leaf expansion is completed. Do not apply when snow or water prevent spraying at :ne des;red height al:>ove ground level.
