• Corrosion-Resistant Diaphragm/Check Valve Nozzles
This boom weighs approx. 31 Lbs.
Always check the vehicle load rang before using a boom with sprayer, ensuring total weight is acceptable.
Do not exceed the recommended rang.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~IMPORTANT~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Remove tank lid and be sure the tank is clean and free of any foreign material. Rinse tank out of any tank residue before lling with
water to test.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~IMPORTANT~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
It is VERY important to test the sprayer, aer connecng a boom, with plain water before actual spraying is aempted. This will
enable you to familiarize yourself with the sprayer and check for leaks without the possibility of losing any expensive chemicals.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~WARNING~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Read and Understand the Owner’s Manual before using this boom. Test and use in accordance to instrucons.
Read and Follow chemical label instrucons and wear protecve gear when lling, using, cleaning and servicing the
boom.
Exercise Cauon in vehicle handling when towing/hauling a lled sprayer to avoid loss of control or overturning.
Keep Sprayer and Spray materials away from other people, children and pets.
Do Not Turn on Power to the sprayer, unl ready to spray in order to avoid unintenonal spray release.
Do Not Use on steep slopes. A full sprayer could cause loss of control or overturn sprayer and vehicle.
Always operate up and down a slope, never across the face of a slope.
Keep all movement on slopes slow and gradual. Do not make sudden changes in speed, direcons or turning. Do not start or stop
suddenly when going uphill or downhill.
Stop on level ground, set the parking brake and shut o engine before leaving the operator’s posion for any reason.
Keep all parts in good condion and properly installed. Fix damaged or worn parts immediately.
Cauon should be taken when towing and/or using any sprayer. The sprayer combined with the weight distribuon, turning radius
and speed of vehicle can result in damage to vehicle, sprayer and/or boom or severe injury or death, if not used properly.
Improper use or handling of chemicals could result in serious injury or illness, or could cause damage to the environment.

• Make sure the contents of the sprayer’s carton match the items shown on page 3 of the manual.
• Follow the steps on pages 4, 5 & 6 to properly assemble the sprayer.
Normally, the sprayer will be mounted on an ATV with the
pump assembly at the operator’s back and the spray wand
will be at the rear of the unit. Right Hand (RH) and Le Hand
(LH) sides of the sprayer are determined as if you are stand-
ing behind the sprayer, looking at it (facing forward).
Start the assembly procedure by turning the tank upside
down on a stable, at surface.
A phillips head screwdriver is required for this step.
(**) Mount tank brackets to the underside of the tank as
shown in Step 1. Use (4) at head screws to secure it to the
tank. The tank will rest on the surface of the brackets. Make
sure the brackets are parallel with each other before ghten-
ing down the bolts. Do not over-ghten.
Aer your tank brackets are securely aached, turn the tank
assembly over and posion it so that the cam handles which
extend beyond the back of the tank are facing you and just
hanging over the edge of the table or at surface you are
assembling this on.
Secure the boom mounng brackets to the tank mounng
brackets with Cam handles as shown in Detail A. You can
posion them as needed within the slot on the bracket. Just
be sure that the surfaces of both brackets are even with each
other.
You are now ready to mount this unit to an ATV, using
ratchet straps (NOT INCLUDED)
Aer your boom mounng brackets are secured in place, bolt
the 7-nozzle boom in place with (4) Carriage Bolts and whiz
nuts.
A 1/2” socket or wrench is required for this step.
This boom can be posioned as shown or in a few alternate
posions.
Try to maintain approximately 16-20 inches above the items
being sprayed, for opmal coverage. This is considered
where the nozzles will mount, at the end of these brackets.

Step 5
With all brackets secure and the unit mounted on the ATV
unit, the nozzle harness can now be aached.
Aach the nozzle harness to the boom. Each nozzle body
has a brass nut which holds it to the steel boom. Make sure
these are ghtened securely.
Aer your nozzle harness is aached to the boom, locate
the 48” hose and the (2) hose clamps from the parts bag.
Place the hose clamps over each end of the hose loosely.
Slip the ends of the hose over the hose barbs on both the
manifold and the poly hose tee on the nozzle harness. Use
a twisng moon, if necessary, to get the hose fully onto
each barb. Bring the hose clamps to the connecon point
and ghten securely.
NOTE:
Make sure this boom feeder hose does not end up on the
‘outside’ of the spray wand hose, otherwise unwrapping
the spray wand hose from around the tank may be dicult.

• Make sure all hose clamps are ght before tesng or spraying for the rst me.
Aer compleon, sprayer will be ready to TEST
w/plain water before actual use.
Tesng the Sprayer
NOTE:
It is VERY important to test the sprayer, aer connecng a boom, with plain water before
actual spraying is aempted. This will enable you to familiarize yourself with the sprayer
and check for leaks without the possibility of losing any expensive chemicals.
Fill the tank about 1/2 full with plain water and drive to the starng place for spraying.
When you are ready to spray, turn the boom valve to the “on” posion (Detail A). This will
start soluon spraying from the ps of the boom. The pressure will decrease slightly when
the boom is spraying.
Adjust the pressure by turning the “ON/OFF” valve lever on the Press. Adj. (bypass) valve
(Detail B). Make sure your paern is sucient. You may down-pressure the system by
‘bypassing’ soluon back into the tank. This is achieved by opening the Press. Adj. (bypass)
valve. Regulang pressure is done in this manner.
Read the operang instrucons and inially begin spraying by closing the ‘Pressure
Adjust’ valve and opening the boom line valve (Detail A). This will enable the air in the line
to be eliminated (purged) through all the ps, while building pressure. When everything
tests all right (no leaks and good pressure), add the desired chemicals to the mixture and
water combinaon and start your spraying operaon. Adjust the pressure and spray as
you did in the tesng procedure.
Condions of weather and terrain must be considered when seng the sprayer. Do not
spray on windy days. Protecve clothing must be worn in some cases.
Be sure to read the chemical label(s) before applicaon!

DETAIL A: With your pump (Not Included)
mounted on the ‘top’ of your tank this is
how your bypass line will be congured.
DETAIL B: With your pump (Not Included) mounted on the ‘side’ of your tank this
will be your plumbing conguraon/setup.
With either conguraon, a hole will need to be drilled through the top of the tank
for the bypass return hose. Aer you have connected the needed parts together,
depending on which conguraon you need, locate the place on your tank for the
hole, so that the hose can be inserted without causing kinks.
Hole Size:
Item 5: 1/2” I.D. Grommet (5075018): a 13/16” hole will need to be drilled.
Item 7: 5/8” I.D. Grommet (5075022): a 7/8” hole will need to be drilled.

Operaon
Fill the tank part way with water and then add the desired amount of chemical to be sprayed. Finish lling tank to proper level.
Only ll the tank with what you’re going to spray in a day, never leave chemicals sit in tank.
When spraying with either the boom or the handgun, pressure may be reduced by slowly opening the Press. Adj. (bypass) valve
unl desired pressure is achieved. Opening the valve decreases pressure, closing the valve increases pressure. When spraying with
the boom, the proper method to set the pressure is to open the boom valve completely and if a lower pressure is desired, then
slowly open the bypass valve unl that pressure is obtained.
For the safest and most ecient chemical applicaon, you will need to calibrate your sprayer using the p and speed charts. Once
you have determined the proper speed and pressure sengs, you will need to consult your chemical label for the amount of chem-
ical to be added to the tank. Read the enre label. Use only according to label direcons.
Calibraon
Chemical labels may show applicaon rates in gallons per acre, gallons per 1000 square feet or gallons per 100 square feet. You will
note that the p chart shows 2 of these rang systems. Once you know how much you are going to spray, then determine (from
the p chart) the spraying pressure (PSI), and the spraying speed (MPH).
Determining the proper speed of the pulling vehicle can be done by marking o 100, 200 & 300 feet. The speed chart
indicates the number of seconds it takes to travel the distances. Set the throle and with a running start, travel the
distances. Adjust the throle unl you travel the distances in the number of seconds indicated by the speed chart. Once you have
reached the throle seng needed, mark the throle locaon so you can stop and go again, returning to the same speed.
Add water and proper amount of chemical to the tank and drive to the starng place for spraying.
Using the Boom Nozzles
Four things must be considered before spraying with the boom.
How much chemical must be mixed in the tank.
Rate of spray (gallons per acre to be sprayed).
What pressure (p.s.i.) will be used.
Speed traveled (mph) while spraying.
Refer to the chemical label to determine your chemical mixture
See the p chart to determine the pressure to be used. The chart will also show the speed used when spraying.
Start the pump and open the valve to the boom nozzles.
Check the spray paern. Usually you can see the coverage beer on a solid concrete surface, such as a driveway.

Maintenance During/Aer Spraying
Periodically check the strainer and clean the screen on your intake line.
If sprayer becomes clogged during use, disconnue use immediately. DO NOT aempt to service while chemicals are in the sprayer
and power is connected.
Proper care and maintenance will prolong the life of your sprayer.
Aer use, drain the tank and store or dispose of chemical properly. Fill the sprayer half way with clean water. Start the pump and
allow the water to pump through the enre plumbing system and nozzles. Drain and then rell half full, add the recommended
amount of a good quality tank cleaner, such as FIMCO Tank Neutralizer and Cleaner. (If no tank cleaner is available, you may sub-
stute dish soap for this step, about 1-2 oz. per gallon). But a neutralizer/cleaner should be used to thoroughly clean the system.
Turn pump on and circulate through system for 15 minutes and then spray out through boom and handgun nozzles. Rell sprayer
half way with clean water and repeat. Follow the chemical manufacturer’s disposal instrucons of all wash or rinsing water.
If boom or handgun nozzles need cleaning, remove them from the sprayer and soak in warm soapy water. Clean with a so
bristled brush or toothpick if necessary. Never use a metal object. Even the slightest damage can change the ow rate and spray
distribuon. Water rinse and dry the ps before storing.
WARNING: Some chemicals will damage the pump valves if allowed to soak untreated for a length of me! ALWAYS ush the
pump as instructed aer each use. DO NOT allow chemicals to sit in the pump for extended mes of idleness. Follow the chemical
manufacturer’s instrucons on disposal of all waste water from the sprayer.
Storing Sprayer
When sprayer is not in use, release Cam Lock Handles. This is to prevent deforming of Cam Lock Mechanism. Do not use QR
bracket Cams to hold and store boom in vercal posion.
Winter Storage
Prepare the sprayer for end-of-season storage by running RV anfreeze through the system. This will keep internal parts lubricat-
ed, protect against corrosion and keep the unit from freezing. Note: RV anfreeze is non-toxic and biodegradable and generally
safer for the environment than automove anfreeze.
Before storing your sprayer for winter or long term storage, thoroughly clean and drain it as much as possible. Then pour enough
pink RV anfreeze into the tank so that when the pump is turned on you can pump the anfreeze throughout the enre plumbing
system, including the bypass. Make sure to operate the boom and handgun unl you see pink uid spraying from the nozzles.
Leave any remaining anfreeze in the tank. Before your next usage, rinse the anfreeze from the sprayer with clean water.
It is nearly impossible to drain all of the water from the sprayer and any trapped water can freeze in cold weather and damage
parts of the sprayer. Pumping the anfreeze through the system will displace the water and help prevent this damage.
Removing from storage: drain the anfreeze. Fill the tank with fresh water and run through the system. Dispose of anfreeze and
ush water properly.
