What does the Pressure Rinsing Procedure involve?

• A. Rinse with a special high pressure nozzle for 30 seconds
• B. Soak for 60 seconds
• C. Rinse with low pressure for 30 seconds
• D. Do not rinse

Answer: (A)

Pressure rinsing relies on a special high‑pressure nozzle to blast residues out of the equipment. The procedure calls for a focused, high‑pressure rinse lasting about 30 seconds to thoroughly remove lingering pesticide from the tank, hoses, and fittings. This mechanical, forceful cleaning is more effective at dislodging stuck residues than soaking or rinsing at low pressure, and skipping rinsing would leave contaminants that could affect future applications or violate label requirements.
