The following procedures should be adopted for operation:
- Mark the tank to show the operating level (full).
- Add clean water until the tank is approximately three-quarters full.
- Use a clear area to weigh or dispense chemicals.
- List chemicals and quantities used in each tank mix.
- Dilute the concentrate in the ratio of 1 part chemical to 9 parts water. Always cream wettable powders in water before adding to the tank.
- Add to the tank and fill to the mark. Mix for at least 10 minutes.
- Label tank clearly with contents.
- In order to prolong the life of the solution any soil should be removed from the outside of bins to prevent soiling of the yard and of the drenching/dipping solution.
- Separate the bin reception area from the standing area for treated bins.
