    Pete pro tip. Install a ball valve at each of the pivot joints so you can isolate one side of the boom arm. Say you want to not spray full width, Leave one boom arm up and close the valve. Now you have an offset sprayer.

    Awesome Rig - I had a Kawasaki mule with a 100gallon tank and a 18ft boom sprayer on the back to spray my big celebration bermuda estates. Problem was that thing had terrible turning radius and was heavy and bulky. The zero turn makes things so much easier to get into those tights places.

    I like the design for the folding part of the boom. Nozzle spacing not always same as nozzle height. Spacing is determined by the angle of the fan pattern for the chosen boom height to achieve about a 50% overlap. The nozzle mfg will state the desired overlap. Movable nozzle mounts along the entire boom as well as adjustable boom height allow you the most versatile setup for most any nozzle configuration.without compromising the pattern.

    That’s an awesome idea! One thing just to fix that lean, maybe put two poles at optimal distance from ground and wheels on the bottom.

  • @cjzx325

    That boom for the backpack sprayers looks very intriguing! What if you were to add some short aluminum arms at a 45° on each side of the quick connect that can clamp on to the wand to keep it from rotating?

  • @jwoody8582
    @jwoody8582 2 роки тому

    Watch those booms around trees, etc. I use a pull behind sprayer and the booms fold horizontally. I've hit trees, swingsets, poles, etc. And they go right back into place

    Nice setup! Is there a ride on sprayer/spreader that prefer to others? I'm a start up using a flowzone with your sprayer tip and a walk behind spreader. As I grow, I'll need a stand on and was wondering what you might suggest. 95% of my customers have .25 acre lots. I might get a half acre or full acre lot once in a while.

  • @CliffordAllison
    @CliffordAllison 2 роки тому

    Hey Pete. If you paint tall fescue for events does that keep those grass blades from continuing to grow? Also, can you wash out the paint from the sprayer equipment to use it for fertilization and pesticide spraying for example?

  • @littlefinkle7757
    @littlefinkle7757 2 роки тому +1

    I have a little over 88k feet in my yard. That boom would come in handy. Trying to find a heavy duty pull behind sprayer has turned up the fact that there are none, at least not that my google searches have located. Enjoy your weekend Pete!

    Thanks for the video on this Pete!
    I’m wanting to mount like a 40 gallon boom sprayer tank to the 3 pt hitch on the back of a Ventrac. Curious to hear your thoughts on this idea. I believe the weight comes in under the 800 lbs capacity. I also have the 12v power connection on the back for a 12v pump. Thinking i’ll need a 4.5-5.5 gpm pump for a 12’ boom with 7 nozzles. Also think i’ll end up needing to put some weight on the front to counter balance the tractor. Think it can handle it?

    I don't know whether lawn painting will cause business to (wait for it) boom, but on a similar note, scouting the web turns up a creative few, who've painted their lawns from the American flag to their NFL favorite football team to whatever else. I guess the sky's (or ground's) the limit as long as their HOA's aren't hemorrhaging from it. :/
