Assembly
1. Utilizing the holes illustrated here, align the
boom arms to the center section. Attach using
the 3/8” hinge bolts and locknuts (28).
NOTE: Do not tighten fully! Allow movement.
2. With the boom arms folded closed, install the
springs (23) on the spring mounting tabs.
3. Add the boom to the
front of the spreader.
Rest the opened boom assembly on
the extended front tubular frame of
the spreader, as illustrated.
NOTE: Center the vertical
mounting brackets (A).
Bolt the boom to the spreader
frame using hardware from the
provided U-bolt bag (31).
NOTE:When viewed
from above, be mindful that
the U-bolt must pass through
the opening of the vertical
mounting brackets (A).

Assembly
4. Using the boom support brackets (A) as a
template: Drill through the mounting openings,
creating two 1/4 inch diameter holes in the
hopper.
5. Clean all debris from the spreader hopper.
Place the empty tank assembly (32) in
your spreader hopper with the battery mounted
toward the rear.
Place the 1-1/2 inch diameter washers on the
inside of the hopper wall and insert the 1/4-20 hex
head bolts in the holes. The bolt heads should
be inside the hopper. They should be snug and
will need to be screwed into the holes. The front
face of the hopper will not be 100% flush with the
boom mounting brackets.
NOTE: Do not over-tighten the wingnut. The small
lockwashers and wingnuts are used to secure the
boom while in use. See illustration below

Use and Care
!READ BEFORE USING
GENERAL OPERATION &
MAINTENANCE
The sprayer pump is turned on and off by the thumb
switch mounted on the handlebar of the spreader. Each
dripless nozzle body has a special shut-off cap. The
nozzle body requires 5 psi of system pressure to open,
thus keeping the nozzles from dripping when the pump
is off. The nozzles can be completely shut off by turning
the cap clockwise. The operator can turn off individual
nozzles as needed. The hand spray wand is activated
by closing the boom line valve (ball valve on top of the
tank)toturnoffowtothe boom.Todrainthetankof
unused liquids, remove the spray tip from the wand and
pump the remaining liquid into the proper receptacle.

•Cleantipscreensregularly.
•Preventfromfreezing.
•Adjusthingelocknuttensionasnecessary.
•Flushwithwateraftereachuse.
•Lubricatehingeswithgrease.
INITIAL START-UP
& PRESSURE TESTING
1. Turn the pressure regulator knob counter-
clockwise all the way.
2. Put about one gallon of water in the tank for
testing.
3. Be sure that the spray line valve is turned off.
4. Turn on the handlebar thumb switch. You should
hear the pump running and see water moving
through the hoses.
5. Slowly turn the pressure regulator knob clockwise
to increase the pressure. You should notice
movement of the needle on the pressure gauge.
Adjust the pressure to 30 psi for testing.
6. With the spray wand assembled, operate the
trigger valve and check it for leaks. Note the
trigger lock. Also adjust the nozzle and angle
adapter orientation to the desired position.
7. Turn off the switch. Turn on the boom line valve
and all four caps on the top of each boom nozzle
body.
8. Turn on the switch and observe the spray pattern
from each boom nozzle. Check the entire boom
assembly for leaks.
9. Flush out the water and antifreeze. Once the unit
has been pressure tested and you are familiar
with its operation, you can begin the calibration
procedure.

BATTERY
RECHARGING
Charging at a low rate (3 amp max.) with an automotive
quality battery charger will extend battery life.
A 110-volt powered plug-in battery charger is available
as an optional accessory to recharge the battery when
not in use. The battery can also be recharged by the
service truck’s charging system by using the optional
vehicle charging kit.
Each nozzle body requires 5 psi of system pressure to
open. This keeps the nozzles from dripping when the
pump is turned off.
The nozzle bodies can be completely shut off by
turning the cap clockwise, as shown. This allows the
operator to turn off individual nozzles when spraying
with less than the full boom width is desired.

CALIBRATION
The SPYDSB-9G is equipped with a Hypro DeflecTip wide-angle flat flood nozzle. The table below will serve as a ref-
erence for application rates. A working pressure of 15-20 psi will provide adequate coverage. The nozzle should be
adjusted to provide a 60-65 inch spray width with a 4-6 inch overlap of the previous spray pass.

Conrming Application Rate
Because walking speeds vary, it is always best to perform a field test to confirm the application rate. The
procedure is simple:
1. Measure an area at least 10,000 square feet.
2. Fill the tank with water.
3. Spray the measured area at 20 psi and at a
comfortable sustainable walking speed.
4. Refill the tank from a calibrated container keeping
track of the amount needed to refill the tank.
5. Divide the number of gallons used by the square footage
of the area sprayed (Expressed in 1000 square foot
increments).
6. Since the tank holds 9 gallons, divide 9 by the result to obtain
the expected coverage per tank full.
Example:
4.5 gallons used
10,000 square feet sprayed
9 gallons / 0.45 = 20
The capacity is 9 gallons, so in this
example a full tank should cover
20,000 square feet.
4.5 gallons / 10
= 0.45 gallons / 1,000 square ft.
