APPLICATION RECOMMENDATIONS
 • ALWAYS insert the detonator fully into the detonator-well so that the base of the det-
 onator is against the bottom of the detonator-well.
 •ALWAYS confirm that the TROJAN STINGER charge weight exceeds the initiation sen-
 sitivity requirement for the main explosive charge. Consult the explosives product
 literature or the manufacturer if you have any questions.
 • NEVER force the detonator into the detonator-well or otherwise attempt to clear this
 area if obstructed. If the detonator-well does not accommodate the detonator, do not
 use the booster. Notify your Dyno Nobel representative.
 • NEVER use the TROJAN STINGER if the detonator fits loosely or cannot be inserted
 fully into the detonator-well. The TROJAN STINGER is designed to be used with
 Dyno Nobel detonators. Detonators made by other manufacturers may not fit into
 the detonator-well.

PRIMALINE® SMS

PRIMALINE SMS detonators are initiated by a detonating cord trunkline with a
 coreload of at least 5 g/m (25 gr/ft). Dyno Nobel recommends its PRIMALINE

 contact throughout the knot connection. The

 3. Push the loading hose, detonator and primer to the bottom of the blast
 hole.
 4. Withdraw the loading hose approximately 15 to 20 cm (6 to 8 in) and turn
 the loader on, then continue to withdraw the hose as the ANFO is loaded.

SECTION 5 – FIREFIGHTING MEASURES
5.1 Extinguishing Media
Suitable Extinguishing Agents: DO NOT fight fire when fire reaches explosives.
For Safety Reasons Unsuitable Extinguishing Agents: None.
5.2 Special Hazards Arising from the Substance or Mixture
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO FIGHT FIRES INVOLVING EXPLOSIVE MATERIALS. Evacuate all personnel to a predetermined
safe location, no less than 2,500 feet in all directions. Can explode or detonate under fire conditions. Burning material
may produce toxic vapors. It is recommended that users of explosives material be familiar with the Institute of Makers of
Explosives Safety Library publications.
Product may explode if burned in confined space. Individual cartridges may explode. Mass explosion of many cartridges
at once is unlikely.
5.3 Advice for Firefighters
Protective Equipment: Wear self-contained respiratory protective device.
Wear fully protective suit.
Additional Information:
Eliminate all ignition sources if safe to do so. Flammability Classification: (defined by 29 CFR 1910.1200) Explosive. Can
explode under fire conditions. Individual devices will randomly explode. W ill not mass explode if multiple devices are
involved. Burning material may produce toxic and irritating vapors. In unusual cases, shrapnel may be thrown from
exploding devices under containment. See 2008 Emergency response Guidebook for further information.
POWERMITE® PRO — SDS (SDS), page 7 of 8

EXPLOSIONS: Fires involving explosives or explosive mixtures may undergo further explosions and
 rapid propagation. Police and emergency personnel should be notified immediately. Evacuate
 individuals to a safe sheltered area and if possible remove vehicles and further heat and ignition
 sources from the area. Consult with emergency services to determine evacuation distance and
 suitable re-entry time.

PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT GUIDELINES:
 The recommendation for protective equipment contained within this report is provided as a guide
 only. Factors such as form of product, method of application, working environment, quantity used,
 product concentration and the availability of engineering controls should be considered before final
 selection of personal protective equipment is made.

HEALTH EFFECTS FROM EXPOSURE:
 It should be noted that the effects from exposure to this product will depend on several factors
 including: form of product; frequency and duration of use; quantity used; effectiveness of control
 measures; protective equipment used and method of application. Given that it is impractical to
 prepare a report which would encompass all possible scenarios, it is anticipated that users will
 assess the risks and apply control methods where appropriate.

Connections & Knots

Detonating Cord to Cord Connections

Knots
 Knots are a simple, dependable and convenient method of connection in field use
 of PRIMACORD and PRIMALINE detonating cords. Dyno Nobel recommends
 the use of the following knot connections:

• The square knot (Figure 62) is recommended
 for extending a trunkline system or splicing
 lengths of the same cord. The square knot
 should be made several inches back from the
 cut ends and tightened. It should only be used
 with self-to-self reliable cords. Figure 62 - Square knot.

Detonating cord downlines that are • Either the single-wrap clove hitch (Figure 63)
not self-to-self reliable (generally
 or double-wrap clove hitch (Figure 64) are
those lower than 3.6 g/m [18 gr/ft])
require the double-wrap clove hitch recommended for connecting trunkline cross-ties
knot to ensure initiation. or downlines to trunklines.

Knot connections in detonating cord should be pulled
 tight to create positive contact between the two lines.
 Detonating cord connections must be kept at right
 angles to prevent angle cut-off, which occurs when
 the downlines slant back toward the point of initiation
 at an acute angle (one less than 90°).

 hitch knot.
