ALWAYS CALL A PHYSICIAN IN CASE OF SUSPECTED POISONING 
ATROPINE BY INJECTION IS ANTIDOTAL 
FIRST AID -- If patient has stopped breathing, immediately remove from 
contaminated area, then start artificial respira-tion, preferably by mechanical 
means. If swallowed immediately dilute the swallowed material by giving large 
quantities of water and induce vomiting by gagging the victim with a finger or 
blunt object placed on the back of the victim's tongue. Give fluids until 
vomitus is clear. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. 
Call a physician or the nearest poison control center. If inhaled, remove to 
fresh air. Get medical attention if respiratory irritation occurs. 
~or eye contact, flush with large amounts of running water for at least 15 
minutes. Hold eye-lids apart to insure rinsing of the entire surface of the 
eyes. Get medical attention. For skin contact, remove contaminated clothing 
and immediately wash skin thoroughly for 15 minutes with soap and water. Avoid 
abrading the skin. 
INFORMATION r~R PHYSICIAN -- Initial measures include removal of secretions, 
maintenance of a patent airway and, if necessary, artificial respiration. 
When cyanosis is relieved, atropine may be administered in large ther~~eutic 
doses, repeated as necessary to the point of tolerance. If s~ptoms warrant 
further treatment, protopam chloride (pralidoxime chloride, 2-PAM chloride) has 
-shown utility as adjunctive therapy. Never use morphine. Continued absorption 
of the poison may occur, re-sulting in a fatal relapse after initial 
improvement; very close supervision of the patient is indicated for at least 48 
to 72 hours. 
IN CASE OF SPILL 
ISOLATE the spill. 
Hold this package, other cargo and vehicles involved. IMMEDIATELY TELEPHO~E

calibrated, low-pressure, boom-type sprayer having good agitation . 
.. IMPORTANT: Refer to both DYFONATE 4-E and TILLAM 6-E labels for pertinent 
directions for use, and u~e precautions and :estrictions. The soil should be 
well worked and dry enough to permit good soil incorporation. The tank mix 
Rust be incorporated (mixed) into the soil immediately after application to 
prevent loss of the herbicide by evavoration. Whenever possible, application 
and incorporation should be done in the same operation. Use po,,;er driven 
cultivation equipment set to cut to a depth of 3" in light soil and 3" to 4" in 
heavy soil, or a tandem disc set to cut to a depth of "" to 6". Cross disc at 
right angles for thorough mixing. The bedding operation should follow the 
incorporation as soon as practical. Planting may be done immedia~ely after 
bedding or at a later date; however, to insure long term weed control, the 
crop should be planted as soon as possible after application and bedding. 
TOMATOES: For control of garden symphylans, apply 2 quarts of DYFONATE 4-E 
per acre, oroadcast, prior to planting and incorporate into the soil using 
suitable tillage equipment. (Reduce the rate proportionately for band 
treatments.)

PROCEDURE FOR TESTING THE TANK-MIX COMPATIBILITY OF DYFONATE 4-E WITH FLUID 
FERTILIZERS AND DYFONATE 4-E WITH HERBICIDES AND WATER OR FLUID FERTILIZERS. 
This procedure is suggested for determining whether DYFONATE 4-E and a 
specific fluid fertilizer and/or the specifi~ally approved herbicide{s) may be 
combined for spray-tank application. 
Materials Required: 
1. a. 
b. 
DYFONATE 4-E. 
DYFONATE 4-E/herbicide combinations {EPTAM 7-E, ERADICANE 6.7-E, 
SUTAN + 6.7-E, TILLAM 6-E, Atrazine 80W or 4L, or Bladex 80W or 4L. 
2. Water or fluid fertilizer to be used. 
3. Adjuvant for tank mix - Compex*, Sponto* 168-D, Unite* or equivalent. The 
adjuvant which performs best depends on the specific fertilizer being 
considered. 
4. Two one-quart, wide-mouth glass jars with tops. 
5. Measuring spoons (a graduated cylinder or pipette will provide more 
accurate measurement). 
6. Measuring cup, 8 oz. (~37 mI.) 
Procedure: 
1. Add one pint (2 cups or approximately 473 ml) of the test water or fluid 
fertilizer to each of the quart jars. 
2. Add adjuvant to one of the jars and mix (see ratE tables). 
3. Carefully add the pesticides to each jar (see rat.! tables) as follows: 
a. If only DYFONATE 4-E is to be used, add :I.t directly to each jar. 
b. If a tank mix with a herbicide emulsifiable concentra~e is to b~ 
used, add the herbicide first and mix, and then add the DYFONATf 
4-E. 
c. It a tank mix with a herbicide emulsifiable conc~ntrate and a 
"",,ttable powder or flowable formulation is to be used, add and mix 
the pesticides in the following order: 
• Compex is a trademark of Kalo Laboratories, Inc., Sponto 168-D i& a 
trade~ark of Witco Chemical Corporation; Unite is a trademark of 
Hopkins Agricultural Chemical Company.

Page 11 of 18 
Dyfonate 4E 
RS-01l690 
1) add and mix the wettable powder or flowable formulation first 
(premixing these in water prior to addition to fluid fertilize!" 
often provides a more compatible mix with fluid fertilizer), 
2) Add and mix the herbicide emulsifiabe concentrate second, 
3) and finally, add the DYFONATE 4-E. 
4. Securely close each jar using the top ana mix the contents by inve-:ting 
the jar ten times. 
5. Inspect the mixtures immediately and after standing for thirty minutes 
without mixing. 
6. Dispose of jar mixes according to disposal statements contained within 
this label. 
A mixture may be incompatible if either of the following conditions is 
observed: 
a. an oil layer or large oil globules are observed, or 
b. sludge or clumps are present. 
If either mixture remains uniform for thirty minutes, the combination may be 
used. Should either mixture separate after thirty minutes, but remix readily 
with ten jar inversions, the combination can be used if good agitation is 
maintained in the spray tank. If nondispersible oil, sludge or clumps persist, 
the combination must not be used. 
If the mixture with the adjuvant stays mixed, or remixes readily to form a 
uniform dispersion, but the one without adjuvant does not, be sure to us~ the 
adjuvant in the spray tank. Add the adjuvant first to the water or fluid 
fertilizer at the recommended rate. Minimize foaming by using moderate 
agitation.
