3pt. Boom Sprayer:

Thanks guys. Through work I ordered a Demco 60gal sprayer with fold out booms, six roller pump, and manual valves. I think the hand wand is only about 15' but I want that for spraying from the tractor seat, (open station).

The route sales rep took the sprayer to the Farm Progress Show in Decatur and will drop it by my place after it's conclusion over the weekend. No freight charge that way.

I decided to go with the Demco as the tank is much better quality than others I've seen meaning thickness, porting, and agitation. I'll do some modifying such as solenoid valves and such when I'm more certain of what I actually want to do with it. Right now I just have a lot of roadway, 4 wheeler paths, and fence lines to gets weeds burned down on. Know what you mean about the backpack type sprayers too. I don't want no more of that.....

Thanks kindly gents; really is appreciated. I'll post up a photo next week when mounted up on the tractor.

Boom sprayer arrived today and it is a quality built unit. Heavy frame with everything well designed. The tank is much heavier than the sprayers I've seen in the farm stores as are the booms, (seemingly). I didn't unpack anything as it is still strapped together for shipping. Doesn't look like much to do to start spraying.

It was dark when I got back to the shop from a new tractor delivery this afternoon and I'll grab some photos tomorrow. They purchased a new 2.5 gallon jug of "Buccaneer" herbicide concentrate to spray the lot perimeter and knock the weed growth down where the used lawn mowers, and tractor implements are displayed. I think that product is 41% glyphosate and does a good job when mixed to a 5% solution.
