Aerial applications are most effective when made at a boom height of 5 
feet and & swath width of 50 feet. 00 not make application when winds 
exceed 5 mph. 
Mist blowers and boom sprayers utilizing a controlled air flow to facilitate 
particle size and spray deposition may be used at a vehicle speed of 410 
10 mph. 
Mist blowers with a pump capable of producing up to 40 psi and blower 
speeds of 2600 rpm are salisfac1ory. Use flat Ian nozzles, 6001 to 8002.­
placed 3O-'nto alr blast or rotary atomizers Into the alr blast that produce 
an efficient spray particle wllh a mass medium diameter of 40 to 100 
microns. Swath widths should not exceed 30 feet. and appTIcations 
should not be made when winds exceed 5 mph. 
Boom sprayers wilh a filtered rotary air compressor, either PTO or gas 
engine driven or an air pump capable of producing at least 12 psi are 
satisfactory. Use air pressure on chemical tanks and an accurate meter­
Ing valve to assure a calibrated flow of the pesticide. Air should be 
regulated with relief valve and gauge for proper air and liquid mixture. 
Pneumatic-type spray nozzles. as suggested by equipment manufac­
turer, should be used for spray particles with mass medium diameter _of 
30 to 100 microns. Appficalions should nol be made when winds exceed 
5 mph. 
Repeat applications should be made as necessary unless otherwise 
ap8clrled. 
Bro&dcast use only over intermittently flooded areas. Application may

mobile paint unless all of the following conditions are met: 
1. AlflCfafl Is operated at 150 mph or more. 
2. There are no leaks in the ultra low volume spray system. 
3. Nozzlesara placed on the boom at 45" angle down and into the wind. 
4. Diaphragm check valves are used on all nozzles to insure posItive
