FIRST AID
Net Contents:
This product is an organophosphate. iRsestisille'mitisjge.
FIRST AID TREATMENT: Call a doctor (physician), clinic or hos
pital immediately. Explain thai the victim has been exposed to
parathion and describe his condition.
IF )NHALED: Remove victim to fresh air. If not breathing. imme
diately give artifical respiration, preferably mouth-to-mouth and maintain
unliJ doctor sees victim. If breathing is difficult. give oxygen.
IF SWALLOWED: Call a physician or pOison control center. Drink
10r 2 glasses of water and induce vomiting by touching back of
throat with finger, or, if available. by administering syrup of ip
ecac. Do not induce vomiting or give anything by mouth to an
unconscious person.
IF IN EYES OR ON SKIN: Immediately flush with plenty 01 water
while removing contaminated personal clothing and shoes to avoid
continued possible exposure to victim or persons in attendance.
NOTE TO PHYSICIAN
Ant/dote: Administer atropine sulfate in large doses two )0 four
mg. intravenously or Intramuscularly as soon as cyanosis is overcome.
Repeat at 5 to 10 minute intervals until signs of atropinization
appear. 2-PAM chloride is also antidotal and may be, adminis
tered in conjunction with atropine. DO NOT GIVE MORPHINE OR
TRANQUILIZERS. Parathion is a strong cholinesterase inhibitor
affecting the central and peripheral nervous systems and pro
dUCing cardiac and respiratory depression. At first sign of pul
monary edema the patient shOUld be given supplemental o::c:ygen
and treated symptomatically. Continued absorption of the poi
son ·may occur and fatal relapses have been reported afler ini
tial improvement. VERY CLOSE SUPERVISION OF THE PATiENT
IS INDICATED FOR AT lEAST 48 HOURS.

PROTECTION OF APPLICATORS AND MIXER/LOADERS
Applicator Protection: The cockpit of the aircraft used to apply this
product must be fully enclosed while this product is being applied. No
pilot may apply this product if the pilot has earlier during the day of
application performed any mixinglloading activities (other than acting
as an observer) involving any pesticide product containing parathion.
Human rraggers are prohibited.
Mixer/Loader Protection: An observer must be present during all
mixinglloading activities in order to furnish assistance in the event of
an accident. The observer must not act as a mixerlloader and need
not wear personal protective equipment.
This product must be mixed and loaded In a closed system, as
de$cribed below:
The liquid pesticide must be removed from its original shipping con
tainer and transferred through connecting hoses, pipes and/or couplings
that are sufficiently tight to prevent handlers or other persons from
contacting the parathion concentrate, use dilution, or rinsate solution.
A complete seal by dry break or screw-on coupling to the opening of
the originai container shall be required.
All hoses, piping, tanks and connections used in the system shall be
of a type appropriate for the product being used and the pressure and
vacuum levels involved. The system shall be designed and oprated
so that Ihe concentrated form of tnis product is not under more than
25 psi of pressure at any paint in the system beyond or downstream
from a pump producing pOSitive pressure. The closed system must be
adequate to make necessary measurements of the product being used.
External sight gauges shall be equipped with valves so Ihat the flow
of pesticide to the sight gauge can be shut off in case of breakage or
leakage from the gauge.
Dry-break couplings shall be used for all hose connections that may S {..J.
be disconnected during normal mixing-loading operations (excluding periOdiC C'
maintainenance). A coupling shall be conSidered to be a dry-break coupling
only if its manufacturer certifies that less tnan 2ml of liquid escape
per disconnect
In mixing/loading operations do not pour this produ:t .J tits con
tainer. Before opening the container, make sure that tiff! i:!tainer is
resting securely on the ground or a sturdy support, with the top (open
ing) end up and approximately level.
Remove the product from the container only by use of a vacuum-pro
ducing pump system connected to a probe system that is lI'sted by th
State of California under that State's program estabJiJL'ing Jriteria fCT

Instructions provided by tha seller of the probe sys:em :I"all be fol
lowed. except that a removable probe may not be refl"l')\led from the
container until the container is empty and the container and probe have
been thoroughly rinsed as required by this section.
The closed-system must provide for adequate rinsing of any remov
able probe and of all containers that are not labeled for return to the
registrant. Rinsing must be done using a liquid that contams no pes
ticide. The rinSing system must be capable of spray-rinsing the inner
surface of the container. The rinse solution shall be removed from the
pesticide container concurrent with the introduction of the rinse me
dium. The rinse solution shall go into the pesticide mix tank or appli
cator vehic]e via the closed system.
The system shalt be rinsed aCCOrding to the specifications of the manufacturer
of the probe system or, in the absence of such specifications, by
moving at least one half of the container volume through the system.
A minimum pressure of 15 psi shall be used for the spray rinse. Par
athion containers shall be protected against excessive pressure during
the container rinse operation. Measures shall be taken to prevent the
spray rinse procedure from causing an increase in pressure on the
inside of the container walls of more than 5 psi.
Either the operator of the closed system must have available at the
time of operation a complete set of written instructions for proper operation
of the system, or the certified applicator must document in writing
before an operator uses the closed system that the operator has been
adequately trained in the proper operation of the system.
This product must be mixed and loaded in a closed system, as de
scribed below:
INCIDENT REPORTING
A telephone notification must be made if mixing, loading, or use of a
product containing parathion results in inadvertent or unexpected hu
man exposure to the product or illness resulting from exposure to the
product, spill of the product, an investigation by Federal, State or
local authorities of allegations involving drift of the product, or the
deaths of birds or other wildlife. The certified applicator or the owner
of the treated land must notify by telephone the Chief, Compliance
Branch, Office of Compliance Monitoring, U.S. EPA, at 202-260-3375
