USE INFORMATION 
 
CruiserMaxx EZ is a seed treatment product containing the active ingredients: 
thiamethoxam (insecticide) and fludioxonil and mefenoxam (fungicides). CruiserMaxx 
EZ protects against damage from listed early season insects, soil-borne and seed-borne 
diseases of soybeans. 
 
Thiamethoxam is a systemic seed treatment insecticide belonging to the neonicotinoid 
class of chemistry. Thiamethoxam protects against listed chewing and sucking insects 
through contact and ingestion. 
 
Mefenoxam fungicide is active against Pythium, Phytophthora and systemic downy 
mildew. 
 
Fludioxonil fungicide is active against Fusarium, Rhizoctonia, and suppresses seed-
borne Sclerotinia and Phomopsis species. 
 
MIXING PROCEDURES 
 
Important: Always re-circulate CruiserMaxx EZ thoroughly before using. 
 
The typical density of CruiserMaxx EZ is 9.41 pounds per gallon. Consult the 
manufacturer of the application equipment you plan to use for suitability for this 
application and for instructions on operation and calibration of the equipment. Follow 
the manufacturer application instructions for the seed treatment equipment being used. 
 
Apply CruiserMaxx EZ as a water-based slurry utilizing standard slurry seed treatment 
equipment which provides uniform seed coverage. Uneven or incomplete seed 
coverage may not give the desired level of disease control. Thoroughly mix the 
specified amount of CruiserMaxx EZ into the required amount of water or liquid 
inoculant for the slurry treater and dilution rate to be used. 
 
Certain crops require addition of inoculants when the seed is treated or planted. 
CruiserMaxx EZ is compatible with several liquid inoculant products. Consult the maker 
of the inoculant product and a Syngenta Crop Protection representative for directions 
before applying CruiserMaxx EZ with inoculants.

7
Under certain disease conditions, additional amounts of fungicides may be required. 
When needed, apply additional Apron XL® according to the CROP USE DIRECTIONS. 
Other tank mix partners may be used with CruiserMaxx EZ; however, the user must 
consider the use rate, formulation, seed and crop safety factors and compatibility of 
each product to be mixed when determining the total application volume. 
 
The total application volume must be sufficient to provide desired level of coverage. 
Dilution is typically done with water or liquid inoculants. The minimum slurry volume to 
achieve adequate coverage is 4.0 fluid ounces per 100 pounds of seed. More diluent 
may be required to obtain complete coverage. 
 
Continuous agitation or mixing of the slurry mixture is necessary to prevent settling out 
of the solution. 
 
Use an EPA-approved dye or colorant that imparts an unnatural color to the seed as 
required in 40 CFR 153.155 (c). 
 
Allow seed to dry before bagging. 
 
Follow planter manufacturer specifications for use of talc or other hopper box additives 
at planting. Seed must be completely dry before adding to planter.

SEED BAG LABEL REQUIREMENTS 
 
The Federal Seed Act requires that bags containing treated seeds shall be labeled with 
the following statements: 
x This seed has been treated with thiamethoxam insecticide and fludioxonil and 
mefenoxam fungicides. 
x Do not use for feed, food, or oil purposes. 
x User is responsible for ensuring that the seed bag meets all requirements under 
the Federal Seed Act. 
 
In addition, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency requires the following statements 
on bags containing seeds treated with CruiserMaxx EZ: 
 
x Ground Water Advisory: 
Thiamethoxam has properties and characteristics associated with chemicals 
detected in ground water. This chemical may leach into the ground water if used 
in areas where soils are permeable, particularly where the water table is shallow. 
Mefenoxam is known to leach through soil into ground water under certain 
conditions as a result of agricultural use. Use of this chemical in areas where 
soils are permeable, particularly where the water table is shallow, may result in 
ground water contamination. 
x Pollinator Precautions: 
Thiamethoxam is highly toxic to bees, and effects are possible as a result of 
exposure to translocated residues in blooming crops. 
x Store away from feeds and foodstuffs. 
x Wear long-sleeved shirt, long pants and chemical resistant gloves when handling 
treated seed. 
x Treated seeds exposed on soil surface may be hazardous to wildlife. Cover or 
collect treated seeds spilled during loading. 
x Treated seed must be planted into the soil at a depth greater than 1 inch. 
x Dispose of all excess treated seed. Leftover treated seed may be doublesown 
around the headland or buried away from water sources in accordance with local 
requirements. 
x Do not contaminate water bodies when disposing of planting equipment wash 
waters. 
x Dispose of seed packaging in accordance with local requirements. 
x In the event of a crop failure or harvest of a crop grown from CruiserMaxx EZ 
treated seed, the field may be replanted immediately to alfalfa, Brassica (cole) 
leafy vegetables, cereal grains (including barley, buckwheat, corn, pearl millet, 
proso millet, oats, popcorn, rice (dry-seeded), rye, sorghum, teosinte, triticale, 
wheat and wild rice), canola, cotton, cucurbit vegetables, dry bulb onions, fruiting 
vegetables, leafy vegetables, legume vegetables, mint (peppermint and 
spearmint), oil seed crops (black mustard seed, borage seed, crambe seed, field 
mustard seed, flax seed, Indian mustard seed, Indian rapeseed seed, rapeseed 
seed, and safflower seed), peanuts, root vegetables, strawberry, sunflowers,

9
tobacco, and tuberous and corm vegetables. For any other crop, the minimum 
plant-back interval is 120 days from the date CruiserMaxx EZ treated seed was 
planted. A cover crop other than the crops listed above that is planted for 
erosion control or soil improvement may be planted sooner than the 120 day 
interval; however, the crop may not be grazed or harvested for food or feed. 
x Do not allow children, pets, or livestock to have access to treated seed. 
x Do not use at a rate that will result in more than 0.083 lb thiamethoxam per acre 
(37.8 grams ai/A) as a seed treatment application. 
x This seed has been treated with 0.0756mg ai thiamethoxam,0.0113 mg ai 
mefenoxam and0.0038 mg ai fludioxonil per seed. 
x Do not apply a neonicotinoid insecticide within 45 days of planting seed treated 
with CruiserMaxx EZ. 
x Excess treated seed may be used for ethanol production only if (1) by-products 
are not used for livestock feed and (2) no measurable residues of pesticide 
remain in the ethanol by- products that are used in agronomic practice. 
 
CROP USE PRECAUTIONS 
 
Resistance Management 
THIAMETHOXAM GROUP 4A INSECTICIDE 
 
For resistance management, CruiserMaxx EZ contains a Group 4A/thiamethoxam 
insecticide. Any insect population may contain individuals naturally resistant to 
CruiserMaxx EZ and other Group 4A insecticides. The resistant individuals may 
dominate the insect population if this group of insecticides are used repeatedly in the 
same fields. Appropriate resistance-management strategies should be followed 
 
Thiamethoxam is a systemic insecticide belonging to the neonicotinoid class of 
chemistry which includes nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR) agonists. 
In order to maintain susceptibility to this class of chemistry: 
 
x Avoid using Group 4A insecticides exclusively for season long control of insect 
species with more than one generation per crop season. 
x For insect species with successive or overlapping generations, apply CruiserMaxx 
EZ or other Group 4A insecticides using a “treatment window” approach. A 
treatment window is a period of time as defined by the stage of crop development 
and/or the biology of the pests of concern. Within the treatment window, depending 
on the length of residual activity, there may either be single or consecutive 
applications (seed treatment, soil, foliar, unless otherwise stated) of the Group 4A 
insecticides. Do not exceed the maximum CruiserMaxx EZ allowed per growing 
season. 
x Following a treatment window of Group 4A insecticides, rotate to a treatment window 
of effective products with a different mode of action before making additional 
applications of Group 4A insecticides.

10
x A treatment window rotation, along with other IPM practices for the crop and use 
area, is considered an effective strategy for preventing or delaying a pest’s ability to 
develop resistance to this class of chemistry. 
x If resistance is suspected, do not reapply CruiserMaxx EZ or any other Group 4A 
insecticides. 
 
Other Insect Resistance Management (IRM) practices include: 
x Incorporating IPM techniques into your insect control program. 
x Monitoring treated insect populations for loss of field efficacy. 
x Using tank-mixtures or premixes with insecticides from a different target site of 
action group as long as the involved products are all registered for the same crop 
outlet and effective rates are applied. 
 
For additional information on Insect Resistance Management: 
x Contact your local extension specialist, certified crop advisor and/or product 
manufacturer for additional insect resistance management recommendations. 
x Visit the Insecticide Resistance Action Committee (IRAC) on the web at: 
http://www.irac-online.org/. 
 
MEFENOXAM GROUP 4 FUNGICIDE 
FLUDIOXONIL GROUP 12 FUNGICIDE 
 
For resistance management, please note that CruiserMaxx EZ contains both a Group 
4/mefenoxam and Group 12/fludioxonil fungicide. Any fungal population may contain 
individuals naturally resistant to CruiserMaxx EZ and other Group 4 or Group 12 
fungicides. A gradual or total loss of pest control may occur over time if these fungicides 
are used repeatedly in the same fields. Appropriate resistance-management strategies 
should be followed. 
 
Mefenoxam is a systemic fungicide belonging to the phenylamide class of chemistry 
which adversely affects fungal RNA synthesis. Fludioxonil belongs to the phenylpyrrole 
class of chemistry which interferes with osmotic signal transduction. 
 
To delay fungicide resistance, take one or more of the following steps: 
 
x Rotate the use of CruiserMaxx EZ or other Group 4 or Group 12 fungicides within 
a growing season sequence with different groups that control the same 
pathogens. 
 
x Use tank mixtures with fungicides from a different group that are equally effective 
on the target pest when such use is permitted. Use at least the minimum 
application rate as labeled by the manufacturer. 
 
x Adopt an integrated disease management program for fungicide use that 
includes scouting, uses historical information related to pesticide use, and crop

11
rotation, and which considers host plant resistance, impact of environmental 
conditions on disease development, disease thresholds, as well as cultural, 
biological and other chemical control practices. 
 
x Where possible, make use of predictive disease models to effectively time 
fungicide application. Note that using predictive models alone is not sufficient to 
manage resistance. 
 
x Monitor treated fungal populations for resistance development. 
 
x Contact your local extension specialist or certified crop advisor for any additional 
pesticide resistance-management and/or IPM recommendations for specific 
crops and pathogens. 
 
x For further information or to report suspected resistance contact Syngenta at 1-
866-SYNGENT(A) (866-796-4368). You can also contact your pesticide 
distributor or university extension specialist to report resistance. 
Syngenta encourages responsible product stewardship to ensure effective long term 
control of the insect pests on this label.

If target fields have a history of high Phytophthora pressure, add additional Apron XL as 
directed in the rate table and the Apron XL label. The additional Apron XL may reduce 
compatibility with some rhizobia inoculants. Consult with the maker of rhizobia 
inoculants before adding the additional Apron XL. 
 
Stored Grain Protection 
 
When treated according to the directions for post-planting protection against listed 
pests, CruiserMaxx EZ will also provide protection during post treatment storage of the 
soybean seed against damage from the following stored grain insects: Indian Meal 
Moth (Plodia interpunctella), Rice Weevil (Sitophilus oryza), Red Flour Beetle (Tribolium 
castaneum), and Lesser Grain Borer (Rhizopertha dominica). 
 
If the soybean seed to be treated has existing infestations of stored grain insects, 
fumigate the seed with a registered product approved for such use, prior to treating with 
CruiserMaxx EZ and bagging.
