Spraying Recommendations
•
Do not let sprayer run in one spot.
•
Do not over spray when you use weed killers.
•
Liquid spray material is recommended. Sprayer does
not agitate wettable powders.
•
Timely applications of a smaller dosage are better than
large applications.
•
Turn sprayer off during turns to avoid double spraying.
•
Fill sprayer where spills cannot harm grass.
Checking Machine Ground Speed
1.
Drive vehicle and sprayer (half-full is optimal) across
a measured distance at a constant speed. There can
be no change in speed while measuring time. Speed
should be a comfortable speed for spraying.
2.
Have someone measure the amount of time (in
seconds) it takes to travel the measured distance.
3.
Speed can be found by entering data into the equation:
speed (mph) = distance (ft) x 60/time (sec) x 88, or
by consulting the following table. It is helpful to note
throttle location, gear and/or RPMs in order to maintain
accuracy.
•
Follow manufacturer’s recommendations for
application of specific chemicals.
•
Stop sprayer when tank is empty.
•
Always purge air from spray wand at start of spraying
session.
