NOTE TO PHYSICIAN:
tests may indicate significance of exposure (baseline data are useful). Atropine, only by injection, is the preferred antidote.
Oximes, such as 2-PAM/protopam, may be therapeutic if used early but only in conjunction with Atropine. In case of
severe acute poisoning, use antidote immediately after establishing as open airway and respiration. This product contains

FLAMMABLE LIMITS (LFL & UFL): LFL: 1%; UFL: 6% (xylene range aromatic solvent)
EXTINGUISHING MEDIA: Water fog, foam, dry chemical, or carbon dioxide.
HAZARDOUS COMBUSTION PRODUCTS: May generate hydrogen chloride, ethyl sulfide, diethyl sulfide and oxides of nitrogen in a fire situation.
SPECIAL FIRE FIGHTING PROCEDURES: Wear self-contained breathing apparatus with full protective clothing. Fight fire from upwind and keep
all non-essential personnel out of area.
UNUSUAL FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARDS: If water is used to fight fire and cool the containers, contain run-off by diking to prevent

For small spills, absorb with an absorbent material such as sand, vermiculite or other absorbent material. Place contaminated material in appropriate
containers for proper disposal. For large spills: dike large spills using absorbent or impervious material such as clay or sand. Recover and contain as
much free liquid as possible for reuse. Allow absorbed material to solidify, and scrape up for disposal. After removal, scrub the area with detergent and
water and flush contaminated area thoroughly with water.
CAUTION: Keep spills and cleaning runoff out of municipal sewers and open bodies of water.

crystals. If product crystallizes, store at 50 F/10 C to 70 F/21 C and agitate to redissolve crystals. Do not use or store
near heat or open flame. Do not contaminate water, food, or feed by storage or disposal.
Personal Protective Equipment (PPE): Mixers and loaders using a mechanical transfer loading system and applicators using aerial application
equipment must wear: long-sleeved shirt and long pants, shoes and socks. In addition, mixers and loaders, using a mechanical transfer loading system
must wear: chemical-resistant gloves, chemical-resistant apron, and a NIOSH-approved dust/mist filtering respirator with MSHA/NIOSH approval
number prefix TC-21C or a NIOSH-approved respirator with any R, P, or HE filter. All other mixers, loaders, applicators and other handlers must
wear: coveralls over short sleeved shirt and short pants, chemical-resistant gloves, chemical-resistant apron when mixing or loading or exposed to the
concentrate, chemical-resistant footwear plus socks, chemical-resistant headgear for overhead exposure, a NIOSH-approved dust/mist filtering
respirator with MSHA/NIOSH approval number prefix TC-21C or a NIOSH-approved respirator with any R, P, or HE filter. Discard clothing and other
absorbent materials that have been drenched or heavily contaminated with this product鈥檚 concentrate. Do not reuse them. Follow manufacturer鈥檚
instructions for cleaning and maintaining PPE. If no instructions for washables, use detergent and hot water. Keep and wash PPE separately from other
laundry. Refer to product label for additional information.
8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS / PERSONAL PROTECTION
ENGINEERING CONTROLS: Mixers and loaders supporting aerial applications must use a mechanical transfer system that meets the
requirements listed in the Worker Protection Standard (WPS) for agricultural pesticides [40 CFR 170.240 (d) (4)] for
dermal protection, and must: wear the personal protective equipment require above for mixers/loaders; wear
protective eyewear if the system operates under pressure, and be provided and have immediately available for use
in an emergency, such as broken package, spill, or equipment breakdown: coveralls, chemical resistant footwear and
chemical resistant headgear if overhead exposure. Refer to product label for additional information.
RESPIRATORY PROTECTION: Not normally required; if vapors or mists become excessive, wear a NIOSH approved pesticide respirator with
cartridges for pesticide vapors.
EYE PROTECTION: Chemical goggles or shielded safety glasses.
SKIN PROTECTION: Wear protective clothing: short-sleeved shirts and short pants, chemical-resistant footwear with socks. Wear
chemical-resistant gloves, such as barrier laminate or Viton庐.
