SECTION 3 - SPRAYER OPERATION
Special instructions included in the section deal with the following:
1. Determining boom width.
2. Initial system start up.
End nozzle boom width is calculated with end-nozzles covering 6’ on each boom. If angle of end nozzles is set for
coverage of more or less than 6’, recalculate Boom 1 and Boom 3 widths. For sprayers with only two boom controls the
operator must pay attention to which boom the center is controlled from. To calculate the boom width for this type of
configuration the center width is added to the left or right boom width, depending on which two are supplied from the same
value.
6. PERFORM SPRAYER SYSTEM DAILY MAINTENANCE
a. Check all sprayer system components for leaks.
b. Clean sprayer system strainer.
c. Check tank hold down straps for tightness.
d. Verify all sprayer mounts are secure.
e. Check nozzle patterns. If a nozzle pattern is distorted:
1. Remove nozzle tip.
2. Clean with tooth brush, wooden or plastic probe. Never use a metal object since damage will occur.
