Please Note:
The size of the plant
stem should be approximately
30mm in diameter. Plants will
normally ‘take up’ the herbicide
within 20 minutes of the injection.
•
Holding the Stem Master upright,
insert the needle into the stem,
midway between the lower
nodes
•
Ensure the needle has pierced
the stem on both sides. This
allows any pressurised water in
the stem to escape
•
Squeeze the trigger and the
calibrated amount of herbicide
will be delivered into the
stem cavity
•
Releasing the trigger
automatically reloads the Stem
Master with the calibrated
herbicide dose, ready for the
next application.
SAFETY PRECAUTION:
Use the
allen key supplied to tighten the
grub screw on the needle guard,
if it requires tightening. The Stem
Master should not be used without
the needle guard attached.
Always be careful when handling
the Stem Master, as the needles are
extremely sharp.
