Be warned of the dangers of loading your ATV or other vehicle in excess of its carrying capacity.
It is important to understand that any loads or attachments whether fastened to or placed on a vehicle or ATV

DESCRIPTION
The Multiboom is a compact, lightweight, rugged spray boom suitable for spraying where
tall brush weeds or other obstacles may damage a wider boom. The boom is only 1.5
metres wide but has an effective spray width of up to 4.5 metres. The boom is divided into
five spraying sections each controlled by a shut-off valve located on each of the nozzle
bodies. The outer nozzles are mounted on swivel fittings that allow the effective spray
width to be adjusted.
Optional parts are as follows
4500-1050 Standard Mounting Brackets
1074 Where an existing Quicksmart Frame is mounted
1073 Quicksmart frame (to be used in conjunction with 1074)
INSTALLATION
All Models
Cut the delivery hose from the sprayer at a convenient point and fit the quick release valve
from the dry break kit provided to the sprayer hose.
Cut the boom delivery hose to match and fit the male quick release fitting.
Fit the remaining male QR fitting to the spray gun hose.
Secure all hose connections with the hose clamps provided.

CALIBRATION
4.5M Effective Width
To calibrate the Multiboom, the outer nozzles must be adjusted so that their effective
spray width is 1.5M each. This makes the effective width of the boom 4.5M.
Because the outer nozzles are covering an area three times as wide as each nozzle in the
center section, they must be selected to produce three times the flow of each center
nozzle at the same pressure.
Centre Tips (3 required) Outer Tips (2 required) Boom Flow @ 2bar
L/Min
Yellow 02 (Pt No. 5300-9800) OC06 (Pt No. 5300-3700) 5.83
Operating Shut-off Valves
Locate the red shut-off knob on the side of each nozzle body. Rotate the knob clockwise
to shut the flow off to the tip, anti-clockwise to allow fluid through the tip. The knob may
need to be pushed in towards the nozzle body in order to relocate on the thread.
DETERMINING APPLICATION RATE
Once the tip size and effective spray width have been set, measure the flow from the tips
using a measuring jug. Calculate the boom flow rate as follows; (all flows in Litres/Minute)
Boom Flow= (Centre tip flow x 3) + (Outer tip flow x 2)
Calculate the application rate as follows;
L/Ha= Boom Flow(L/Min) x 600
Effective Spray Width (Metres) x Speed (KPH)
