GENERAL INFORMATION
DO NOT APPLY THIS PRODUCT USING AERIAL SPRAY
EQUIPMENT EXCEPT UNDER CONDITIONS AS SPECIFIED
WITHIN THIS LABEL.
AVOID CONTACT WITH FOLIAGE, GREEN STEMS,
EXPOSED NON-WOODY ROOTS OR FRUIT OF CROPS,
DESIRABLE PLANTS AND TREES, SINCE SEVERE INJURY
OR DESTRUCTION MAY RESULT.
3/19
Do not allow the herbicide solution to mist, drip, drift, or splash
on to desirable vegetation since minute quantities of this
product can cause severe damage or destruction to the crop,
plants, or other areas on which treatment was not intended.
The likelihood of injury occurring from the use of this product is
greatest when winds are gusty or in excess of 5 miles per hour
or when other conditions, including lesser wind velocities, will
allow spray drift to occur. When spraying, avoid combinations
of pressure and nozzle type that will result in splatter or fine
particles (mist) which are likely to drift.
NOTE: Use of this product in any manner not consistent with
this label may result in injury to persons, animals, crops, or
other unintended consequences. Keep container closed to
prevent spills and contamination.
This product is a water soluble liquid that mixes readily with
water and can be applied as a foliar spray for the control or
destruction of most herbaceous plants. It may be applied
through most standard industrial or field-type sprayers after
dilution and thorough mixing with water in accordance with
label instructions.
This product moves through the plant from the point of foliage
contact to and into the root system. Visible effects on most
annual weeds occur within 1 to 3 days, but on most perennial
weeds may not occur for 5 days or more. Extremely cool or
cloudy weather following treatment may slow activity of this
product and delay visual effects of control. Visible effects are
a gradual wilting and yellowing of the plant, which advances to
complete browning of above-ground growth and deterioration
of underground plant parts.
Unless otherwise specified on this label, delay application untit
vegetation has emerged and reached the stages described for
control of such vegetation under the "Weeds Controlled"
section of this label. Unemerged plants ariSing from
unattached underground rhizomes or root stocks of perennials
will not be affected by the herbicide and will continue to grow.
For this reason, best control of most perennial weeds is
obtained when treatment is made at late growth stages
approaching maturity.
Always use the higher rate of this product per acre within the
recommended range when (1) weed growth is heavy or dense,
or (2) weeds are growing in an undisturbed (noncultivated)
area.
Do not treat weeds under poor growing conditions such as
drought stress, disease or insect damage, as reduced weed
control may result. Reduced results may also occur when
treating weeds heavily covered with dust.
Reduced control may result when applications are made to
annual or perennial weeds that have been mowed, grazed, or
cut, and have not been allowed to regrow to the recommended
stage for treatment.
Heavy rainfall or irrigation soon after after application may
wash the chemical off the fOliage and a repeat treatment may
be required.

This product does not provide residual weed control. For
subsequent residual weed control follow a label approved
herbicide program. Read and carefully observe the cautionary
statements and all other information appearing on the labels of
all herbicides used.
Buyer and all users are responsible for all loss or damage in
connection with the use or handling of mixtures of this product
with herbicides or other matenals that are not expressly
recommended in this labeling. Mixing this product with
herbicides or other materials not recommended on this label
may result in reduced performance.
For best results, spray coverage should be uniform and
complete. Do not spray weed foliage to the point of runoff.
APPLY THESE SPRAY SOLUTIONS IN PROPERLY
MAINTAINED AND CALIBRATED EQUIPMENT CAPABLE OF
DELIVERING DESIRED VOLUMES. DO NOT APPLY WHEN
WIND OR OTHER CONDITIONS FAVOR DRIFT. HAND-GUN
APPLICATIONS SHOULD BE PROPERLY DIRECTED TO
AVOID SPRAYING DESIRABLE PLANTS.
VlIXING PROCEDURE
Agitation is essential during mixing due to the density and
viscosity of the concentrated material
ETK-2301 ~ alone
1. Fill spray tank II, full of water.
2. Begin agitation.
3. Add ETK-2301'" into mix tank.
4. Add additional water as needed.
5. Add an agriculturally approved surfactant.
6. Continue to agitate for 3 to 5 minutes or until thoroughly
mixed.
TANK MIXTURES
ETK-2301'" may be tank mixed with other herbicides
registered for the same crop, timing, and method of
1pplication. Observe the most restrictive label statements of
Jarious tank mix products used. LIABILITY FOR CROP
INJURY RESULTING FROM A TANK MIXTURE NOT
SPECIFIED ON THIS LABEL, OR SUPPLEMENTAL
LABELING DISTRIBUTED FOR ETK-2301 1M, IS
SPECIFICALLY DISCLAIMED BY ENTEK CORPORATION.
ETK-2301'" cannot be mixed with any product containing a
label prohibition against such mixing.
DO NOT TANK MIX ETK-2301'" WITH THE DIMETHYL­
AMINE SALT OF ANY PESTICIDE.
NEVER MIX UNDILUTED CHLORATES WITH ETK-23011M
AS AN EXPLOSION MAY RESULT.
COMPATIBILITY
It is recommended to check the compatibility of labeled tank
mixtures of ETK-23011M with water carrier by mixing small
proportional quantities in advance in a small container. If no
'fIn
incompatibility is evident after 30 minutes, the mixture is
generally compatible for spraying.
Mix labeled tank mixtures with ETK-23011M and water as
follows:
1. Place a 20 to 35 mesh screen or welling basket over filling
port.
2. Through the screen, fill the sprayer tank one-half full with
water and start agitation.
3. If a wellable powder is used, make a slurry with the water
carrier, and add it SLOWLY through the screen into the
tank. Continue agitation.
4. If an emulsifiable concentrate formulation is used, premix
one part emulsifiable concentrate with two parts water.
Add diluted mixture slowly through the screen into the tank.
Continue agitation.
5. Continue filling the sprayer tank with water and add the
required amount of this product near the end of the filling
process.
6. Add recommended surfactant at the appropriate dose,
before completing the filling process.
7. Add individual formulations to the spray tank as follows:
wellable powder, flowable, emulsifiable concentrate, drift
control additive, water soluble liquid followed by surfactant.
Maintain good agitation at all times unlil the contents of the
tank are sprayed. If the spray mixture is allowed to sellle,
thorough agitation is required to resuspend the mixture before
spraying is resumed, Keep by-pass line on or near bollom of
tank to minimize foaming. Screen size in nozzle or line
strainers should be no finer than 50 mesh. Carefully select
proper nozzle to avoid spraying a fine mist. For best results
with conventional ground application eqUipment, use flat fan
nozzles.
ADDITIVES
SURFACTANTS
Surfactants, which are labeled for use with herbicides and
cleared for application to growing crops, are required with
this product. When using surfactants that contain at least
80 percent active ingredient, use 0.25 to 0,5 percent
surfactant concentration (1to 2 quarts per 100 gallons of
spray solution). For those surfactants containing less than
80 percent active ingredient, use 1.0 percent surfactant
concentration (4 quarts per 100 gallons of spray solution),
Read and carefully observe surfactant cautionary
statements and other information appearing on the
surfactant label.

CAUSE DAMAGE TO ANY VEGETATION CONTACTED TO
WHICH TREATMENT IS NOT INTENDED. TO PREVENT
INJURY TO ADJACENT DESIRABLE VEGETATION,
APPROPRIATE BUFFER ZONES MUST BE MAINTAINED.
Coarse sprays are less likely to drift, therefore, do not use
nozzles or nozzle configurations which dispense spray as fine
spray droplets. Do not angle nozzles forward into the
airstream and do not increase spray volume by increasing
JOZZle pressure.
Drift control additives may be used. When a drift control
additive is used, read and carefully observe the cautionary
statements and all other information appearing on the additive
label.
Ensure uniform application - To avoid streaked, uneven or
overlapped application, use appropriate marking devices.
Thoroughly wash aircraft, especially landing gear, after each
day of spraying to remove residues of this product
accumulated during spraying or from spills. PROLONGED
EXPOSURE OF THIS PRODUCT TO UNCOATED
SURFACES MAY RESULT IN CORROSION AND POSSIBLE
FAILURE OF THE PART. LANDING GEAR ARE MOST
SUSCEPTIBLE. The maintenance of an organic coating
(paint). which meets aerospace specification MIL-C-38413,

hand-held and motorized spray equipment used to direct
the spray onto weed foliage.
• Selective equipment - Recirculating sprayers and shielded
sprayers.
Broadcast Spray Equipment
For control of annual or perennial weeds listed on this label
using broadcast equipment use the recommended rates of this
product plus 0.25 to 1.0 percent surfactant by total spray
volume in 5 to 40 gallons of water per acre as a broadcast
spray unless otherwise specified on this label. See the
"Weeds Controlled" section of this label for specific rates. As
density of weeds increases, spray volume should be increased
within the recommended range to ensure complete coverage.
Carefully select proper nozzle to avoid spraying a fine mist.
For best results with conventional ground application
equipment. use flat fan nozzles.
Hand-Held and High Volume Spray Equipment
Mix this product in clean water and apply to foliage of
vegetation to be controlled. For applications made on a spray­
ta-wet basis. spray coverage should be uniform and complete.
Do not spray to the pOint of runoff. Use coarse sprays only.
For control of annual weeds listed on this label. apply a 1.5
percent solution of this product plus surfactant to weeds less
than 6 inches in height or runner length. Apply prior to
seed head formation in grass or bud formation in broadleaf
weeds. Allow three or more days before tillage or mowing.
For annual weeds over 6 inches tall, or when not using
additional surfactant. or unless otherwise specified. use a 2.5
percent solution. For best results, use a 5 percent solution on
harder-ta-control perennials. such as bermudagrass. dock.
field bindweed. hemp dogbane. milkweed and Canada thistle.

Selective Equipment
ETK-230PM may be applied through a recirculating spray
system. or a shielded applicator after dilution and thorough
mixing with water to listed weeds growing in any noncrop site
specified on this label and only when specifically
recommended in "Cropping Systems".
A recirculating spray system directs the spray solution onto
weeds growing above desirable vegetation. while spray
solution not intercepted by weeds is collected and returned to
the spray tank for reuse.
A shielded applicator directs the herbicide solution onto weeds
while shielding desirable vegetation from the herbicide.
A wiper applicator applies the herbicide solution onto the
weeds by rubbing the weed with an absorbent material
containing the herbicide solution.
AVOID CONTACT WITH DESIRED VEGETATION.
j
Contact of the herbicide solulion with the desirable vegetation
may result in damage or destruction. Applicators used above
desired vegetation should be adjusted so that the lowest spray
stream is at least 2 inches above the desirable vegetation.
Droplets. mist. foam. or splatter of the herbicide solution
settling on desirable vegetation may result in discoloration.
stunting, or destruction.
Applications made above the crops should be made when the
weeds are a minimum of 6 inches above the desirable
vegetation. Better results may be obtained when more of the
weed is exposed to the herbicide solution. Weeds not
cont"cted by the herbicide solution will not be affected. This
may oCcur in dense clumps, severe infestations, or when the
height of the weeds varies so that not all weeds are contacted.
In these instances repeat treatment may be necessary.
Shielded applicators
When applied as directed under conditions described for
shielded applicators. this product will control those weeds
listed in the "Weeds Controlled" section of this label.
Use the following equation to convert from a broadcast rate
per acre to a band rate per acre.

broadleaf weeds.
ANNUAL WEEDS
APPLY to actively growing grass and broad leaf weeds.
• Allow at least 3 days after treatment before tillage.
• For maximum agronomic benefit. apply when weeds are 6
inches or less in height.
• To prevent seed production. applications should be made
prior to seed-head formation.
• ETK-2301 'M does not provide residual control; therefore.
delay application until maximum weed emergence. Repeat
treatments may be necessary to control later germinating
weeds.
LOW-VOLUME BROADCAST APPLICATIONS
When applied as directed under the conditions described.
ETK-2301;'M will control the weeds listed below when:
1.) Water carrier volumes of 10-15 gallons per acre are used
for ground applications.
2.) A surfactant is added at 0.25 to 1.0 percent by total spray
volume. Use 0.25 to 0.5 percent surfactant concentration
when using suriactants that contain at least 80% active
ingredient. Use 1.0 percent surfactant concentration
when using surfactants that contain less than 80% active
ingredient.
