Spray Equipment Clean-Out
Many new pesticides are very active at low rates, especially to
sensitive crops. Residues left In mixing equipment, spray
tanks, hoses, spray booms and nozzles can cause crop effects
if they are not properly cleaned. As Soon as possible after
spraying Aim 12% Microemulslon (ME) Herbicide and before
using the sprayer equipment for any other applications, the
sprayer equipment must be thoroughly cleaned using the
following procedure. In addition, users must take appropriate
steps to ensure proper equipment clean-out for any other
products mixed with Aim 12% Mlcroemulslon (ME) Herbicide as
required on the other product labels. More complete cleaning
can be achieved if the spray system is cleaned Immediately
following the application.
1. Drain sprayer tank, hoses, spray boom and spray nozzles. Use a
high·pressure detergent wash to remove physical sediment and
residues from the inside of the sprayer tank and thoroughly rinse.
Then, thoroughly flush sprayer hoses, spray boom and spray
nozzles with a clean water rinse. Remove and clean spray tips and
all filters and screens (tank, spray hose and spray tips) separately in
the ammonia solution of Step 2.
2. Next, prepare a sprayer cleaning solution by adding three gallons
of ammonia (containing at least 3% active) per 100 gallons of clean
water. Prepare sufficient cleaning solution to allow the operation of
the spray system for a minimum of 15 minutes to thoroughly flush
hoses, spray boom and spray nozzles.
3. Convenient and thorough cleaning of the sprayer can be
achieved if the ammonia solution or fresh water is left in the spray
tank, hoses, spray booms and spray nozzles overnight or during
storage.
4. Before using the sprayer, completely drain the sprayer system.
Rinse the tank with clean water and flush through the hoses, spray
boom, and spray nozzles with clean water. Remove and clean
spray tips and all filters and screens (tank, spray hose and spray tip)
separately in an ammonia solution.
5. Properly dispose of all cleaning solution and rinsate in
accordance with Federal, State, and local regulations and
guidelines.
Do not apply sprayer cleaning solutions or rinsate to sensitive crops.
Do not store the sprayer overnight or for any extended period of time
with Aim 12% Microemulsion (ME) Herbicide spray solution
remaining in the tank, spray lines, spray boom plumbing, spray
nozzles or strainers.
If the sprayer has been stored or idle, purge the spray boom and
nozzles with clean water before beginning any application.
Should small quantities of Aim 12% Microemulsion (ME) Herbicide
remain in inadequately cleaned mixing, loading andlor spray
equipment, they may be released during subsequent applications
potentially causing effects to certain crops and other vegetation.
FMC accepts no liability for any effects due to inadequately cleaned
equipment.
APPLICATION INFORMATION
GROUND APPLICATION
Use ground sprayers designed, calibrated and operated to deliver
uniform spray droplets to the targeted plant or plant parts. Adjust
sprayer nozzles to achieve uniform plant coverage. Overlaps and
slower ground speeds (caused by continuing to spray while starting,
stopping or turning) may result in higher application rates and
possible crop response;o senSitive crops.
Spray Buffer for Ground Application
Spray buffer zones for ground applications, listed in chart below, are
required where local indigenous endangered plant species are
found

Conventional Boom and Nozzle Sprayers
Use a boom and nozzle sprayer equipped with the appropriate
nozzles, spray tips and screens and adjusted to provide optimum
spray distribution and coverage at the appropriate operating
pressures. Use nozzles that produce minimal amounts of fine spray
droplets. Do not exceed 30 psi spray pressure unless otherwise
required by the manufacturer of drift reducing nozzles. Apply a
minimum of 10 gallons of finished spray per acre. Use higher spray
volumes when there is a dense weed population or crop canopy.
Adjust sprayers to position spray tips no lower than 18 inches above
the crop. Operate the sprayer to avoid the application of high
herbicide rates direcUy over the rows andlor into the whorl of treated
crop plants. Refer to the Fallow Systems, Pre-PlantJPre-Transplant
Burdown, Harvest Aid. Defoliant/Desiccant, and the Over-The-Top
Tolerance sections for additional details.
Directed Sprayers
Aim 12% Microemulsion (ME) Herbicide may be applied with drop
nozzles or other spray equipment capable of directing the spray to
the target weeds and away from sensitive plant parts. Aim 12%
Microemulsion (ME) Herbicide may be applied up to the maximum
rate for the target crop for the control of larger weed sizes or weeds
not controlled with lower use rates. Use appropriate rates of
adjuvants such as non ionic surfactants, crop oil concentrates or
methylated seed oils.
Hooded Sprayers
Hooded sprayers may also be used to apply Aim 12%
Microemulsion (ME) Herbicide. Refer to the Hooded Sprayer
Section on page 5 for specific adjustment and operation instructions.
AERIAL APPLICATION
Use nozzle types and arrangements that will provide optimum
coverage while producing a minimal amount of fine droplets. Apply
at a minimum of 3 gallons of finished spray per acre. Higher aerial
spray volumes are required for harvest aid and defoliation
treatments. Higher spray volumes are required when there is a
dense weed population or crop canopy.
SPRAY DRIFT MANAGEMENT
AVOIDING SPRAY DRIFT AT THE APPLICATION SITE IS THE
RESPONSIBILITY OF THE APPLICATOR AND THE GROWER.
The interaction of many equipment and weather related factors
determine the potential for spray drift. The applicator and the
grower are responsible for considering aU these factors when
making decisions.
The following drift management requirements must be followed to
aVOid off-target movement from applications to agricultural field
crops. These requirements do not apply to forestry applications,
public health uses or to applications of dry materials.
Where states have more stringent regulations, they must be
observed.
INFORMATION ON DROPLET SIZE
The most effective way to reduce drift potential is to apply large
droplets. The optimum drift management strategy is to apply the
largest droplets that provide sufficient coverage and control.
Applying larger droplets reduces drift potential, but will not prevent
drift when applications are made improperly, or under unfavorable
environmental conditions (See Wind, Temperature and Humidity,
and Temperature Inversions).
Controlling Spray Droplet Size
Volume· Use high flow rate nozzles to apply Ihe highest practical
spray volume. Nozzles with higher rated flows produce larger
droplets.
Pressure· Do not exceed the nozzle manufacturer's recommended
pressures. For many nozzle types lower pressure produces larger
droplets. When higher flow rates are needed, use higher flow rate
nozzles instead of increasing pressure.
Number of Nozzles - Use the minimum number of nozzles that
provide uniform coverage.
Nozzle Orientation - For aerial application, orient nozzles so that
the spray is released parallel to the airstream which results in larger
droplets than other orientations and is the recommended practice.
Significant deflection from horizontal will reduce droplet size and
increase drift potential.
Nozzle Type - Use a nozzle type that is designed for the intended
application. With most nozzle types, narrower spray angles produce
larger droplets. Consider using low drift nozzles. For aerial
applications, solid stream nozzles oriented straight back produce the
largest droplets and potentially the least drift.
Boom Length - For some aerial use patterns, reducing the effective
boom length to less than 3/4 of the wingspan or rotor length may
further reduce drift without reducing swath width.
Application Height - Making applications at the lowest height that
is safe reduces exposure of spray droplets to evaporation and wind
movement. Aerial applications should not be made at a height
greater than 10 feet above the top of the target plants unless a
greater height is required for aircraft safety.
Swath Adjustment - Swath adjustment distance must increase,
with increasing drift potential (higher wind, smaller drops, etc.).
Wind - Drift potential is lowest between winds speeds of 3 to 10
mph. However, many factors, including droplet size and equipment
type determine drift potential at any given wind speed. Applications
shall be avoided below 3 mph due to variable wind direction and
high inversion potential. NOTE: Local terrain can influence wind
patterns. Every applicator shall be familiar with local wind patterns
and how they affect spray drift.
Temperature and Humidity - When making applications in low
relative humidity, set up equipment to produce larger droplets to
compensate for evaporation. Droplet evaporation is most severe
when conditions are both hot and dry.
Temperature Inversions - Applications shall not occur during a
temperature inversion because drift potential is high. Temperature
inversions restrict vertical air mixing, which causes small suspended
droplets to remain in a concentrated cloud. This cloud can move in
unpredictable directions due to the light variable winds common
during inversions. Temperature inversions are characterized by
increasing temperatures with altitude and are common on nights
with limited cloud cover and tight to no wind. They begin to form as
the sun sets and often continue into the following morning. Their
presence can be indicated by ground fog. However, if fog is not
present, inversions can also be identified by the movement of smoke
from a ground source or an aircraft smoke generator. Smoke that
layers and moves laterally in a concentrated cloud (under low wind
conditions) indicates an inversion, white smoke that moves upward
and rapidly dissipates indicates good vertical air mixing.
Sensitive Areas· The pesticide shall only be applied when the wind
is blowing away from adjacent sensitive areas (e.g. residential
areas, bodies of water, known habitats for threatened or endangered
species and non-target crops).

such a manner to totally enclose the spray pattern and to
prevent any spray deposition to green stems, leaf tissue,
flowers or fruit of the crop.
Sprayers shall not be operated at more than five (5) miles per hour
in order to minimize vertical movement of the sprayer during
application, including the bouncing or raising of the equipment. Use
extreme care in applying to fields where the soil surface is uneven,
has deep furrows, drains or other contours that would disturb the
adjustment and positioning of the spray equipment andlor the spray
pattern. Applications must not be made when wind conditions may
disturb the spray patterns and result in spray deposition to sensitive
plants or plant parts,
For optimum performance, make application to actively growing

instructions and rotational cropping restrictions.
CORN
Field Corn, Seed Corn, Popcorn, Corn
Silage, and Sweet Corn for Processing
and Fresh Market
Apply Aim 12% Microemulsion (ME) Herbicide alone or as a tank
mixture with other herbicides to emerged and actively growing
weeds. Apply to com in all tillage systems from prior to planting up
to 14-leaf collar growth stage. Applications to com greater than va
stage should be made using directed applications to improve weed
coverage within the crop canopy and to minimize spray interception
by the crop leaves. Do not apply when conditions favor drift or when
wind is above 10 mph.
For optimum performance, make application to actively growing
weeds up to 4 inches high and rosettes less than 3 inches across.
Coverage is essential for good control.
Use a nanionic surfactant at 0.25% v/v (2 pints per 100 gallons of
spray solution) having at least 80% active ingredient. Under dry
conditions, the use of a crop oil concentrate may improve weed
control. The use of a crop oil concentrate may increase leaf
speckling on the treated com leaves.

POTATO
TIMING AND METHOD OF APPLICATION
Aim 12% Microemulsion (ME) Herbicide may be used alone or in a
tank mix combination with other herbicides and insecticides as a
fallow systems treatment. as a preplant burndown treatment andlor
as a harvest aid to desiccate potatoes and those susceptible weeds
that may be present.
Fallow Systems
See the Fallow Systems section for directions for application.
Preplant Burndown
See the Preplant Burndown section for directions for application.
Harvest Aid Desiccation Application
Apply Aim 12% Microemulsion (ME) Herbicide as a broadcast spray
at a rate of 6.2 to 10.6 fl. ozs. (0.05 to 0.09 pound active ingredient)
per acre in spray volume sufficient to provide complete coverage of
potato foliage. Aim 12% Microemulsion (ME) Herbicide may be
used alone or as a tank mixture with other potato harvest aids as a
desiccant prior to harvest. Aim 12% Microemulsion (ME) Herbicide
can be applied foliarly to potatoes in the later stages of senescence
and will provide adequate desiccation of potato foliage and vines.
Aim 12% Microemulsion (ME) Herbicide will also desiccate late
season susceptible broad leaf weeds to aid in tuber harvest.
Adequate desiccation is generally achieved within 14 days after the
initial treatment is applied. If the potato crop is in the active
vegetative growth stage when desiccation is initiated, two
applications may be required to provide desiccation of leaf and stem
tissue. Dense potato canopy, large plant size, and environmental
conditions not conducive to product absorption or activity will reduce
initial application efficacy and increase the need for a second
application. If a second application is necessary, apply at 7 to 14
days after the first application. Thorough coverage of the potato
plant to be desiccated is essential. Use a sufficient volume of
water to obtain thorough coverage of the potato leaves and vines.
For optimum results, apply Aim 12% Microemulsion (ME) Herbicide
when the potato crop is in the early stages of natural senescence.
Ground Application
Apply Aim 12% Microemulsion (ME) Herbicide in at least 20 gallons
of water per acre using 80-degree or 11 a-degree flat-fan nozzles.
Select a spray pressure between 30 to 60 pounds per square inch
(psi) measured at the nozzle to obtain a droplet size of
approximately 300 microns. Vary the spray volume and spray
pressure as indicated by the density of the potato canopy and vines
to assure thorough spray coverage. Increase the spray volume and
pressure if the potato canopy is dense or under cool, cloudy or dry
conditions. Increased spray volumes will enhance performance. If
Turbo TeeJet® nozzles are used, a spray pressure of 60 psi or more
will be required to obtain thorough coverage. Do not apply when
winds are gusty or prone to cause herbicide drift from desired target.
particularly when high spray pressures are utilized.
Aerial Application
Apply Aim 12% Microemulsion (ME) Herbicide with aerial equipment
using 5 to 10 gallons of water per acre, using higher volumes when
potato canopies and vines are dense. Apply at a height of 10 feet or
less above the potato canopy using drift reduction nozzles. Adjust
the nozzles to provide a uniform pattern and a droplet size of 350 to
450 microns. Do not apply aerially when atmospheric conditions are
conducive to spray drift and do not apply when wind could drift to
surrounding vegetation.
Adjuvant
Aim 12% Microemulsion (ME) Herbicide must be applied with a high
quality spray adjuvant such as methylated seed Oil. COC or an
organosilicone at the labeled rates. Adjuvant rates should increase
as spray volumes exceed 20 gallons per acre.
Tank mixes
Aim 12% Microemulsion (ME) Herbicide may be applied as a tank
mix or as a sequential application with other potato desiccants.
Refer to the other product's label for restrictions on tankmixing, and
(
observe all label precautions, instructions and rotational cropping
restrictions.
Restrictions
Do not apply more than 22.4 fl. ozs. of Aim 12% Microemulsion (ME)
