OPERATION
CAUTION: Connect to a 12 V battery only.
PUMP PRESSURE SWITCH
The pump pressure switch turns off the pump when it reaches
its maximum pressure setting. Very low flow demand may cause
the switch to rapidly cycle the pump on and off. Rapid on and off
cycling must be limited to no more than 6 times per minute. Cycling
could cause the motor to heat beyond the recommended maximum
temperature and reduce the operational life of the pump and pressure
switch.
SPRAYER CONTROLS
Boom ON-OFF valve shuts off the flow to the boom nozzles.
ADJUSTABLE SPRAY WAND NOZZLE
Twisting the nozzle will adjust the spray pattern from a cone shaped
mist to a solid stream.
SPRAYER RECIRCULATION
1. The sprayer is equipped with a recirculation valve to aid in material
agitation and pressure control.
2. This valve is in the "open" position when the valve handle is in line
with the hose, "closed" when perpendicular to the hose.
3. Adjusting the recirculation valve between the open/closed positions
will affect the pressure coming through the spray wand.
4. Closed position is full pressure through spray wand.
5. It may be helpful to adjust the pressure when spraying with the
spray wand to avoid damage to plants from excess pressure.
BEFORE STARTING
1. Attach the sprayer to the tractor hitch.
2. Connect the wire harness from the switch to the pump.
3. Check for leaks using plain water. Fix leaking fittings with thread
tape.
CAUTION: Wear eye and hand protection and protective
clothing when handling and working with lawn chemicals.
USING THE BOOM SPRAYER
1. Determine the application rate (gallons per 1,000 sq. feet) based on
the chemical manufacturers recommendations.
2. Estimate the size of the area to be sprayed and the amount of
solution that will be needed. This can help avoid unneeded solution
left in the tank.
3. Refer to the application chart below to help determine the speed
required to achieve the manufacturers recommended application
rate.
4. Use plain water to set the correct boom spraying pressure. Turn the
boom valve to the OPEN position. If misting occurs, gradually start
closing the valve until misting stops.
5. Add the chemical solution to the tank, following the manufacturers
recommendations.
6. Set the boom arms for spraying. Rotate boom ends outward by
loosening the lock knob and aligning boom ends with center section
and tighten lock knob. Adjust the height of the nozzles to be about
21" (53 cm) above the ground.

7. Begin spraying, making each pass so that the spray pattern slightly
overlaps the spray pattern from the previous pass.
8. Stay clear of flowers, shrubs, and evergreen trees when spraying to
prevent contact of the solution with these sensitive plants.

MAINTENANCE
AFTER EACH USE
1. Fill the tank part way with water and pump the water out through
the boom assembly and the spray gun. Use the spray gun to wash
the inside of the tank.
2. Refill the tank about half full with water and a chemical neutralizer
solution and repeat the cleaning instructions above. Follow the
manufacturers instructions for disposal of all chemicals.
AS NEEDED
1. Periodically clean the tank strainer on the end of the intake hose.
Remove the nylon swivel nut from the hose, pull out the screen,
and flush it with water.
2. Periodically clean the strainers in the boom nozzles. Remove the
nozzle, pull out the screen, and flush it with water.
WINTER STORAGE
1. Drain all water out of the sprayer, especially the pump and spray
gun. These items are prone to damage from freezing temperatures.
2. Winterize the sprayer by pumping a 50-50 solution of water and
R.V. antifreeze through the boom assembly and the spray gun.
