ATV mounted sprayer

I've been using the North Star tank for 20 yrs. I put the chemical in a small amount of water and mix with the garden hose as I fill then spray. Works great.

Where you going to pump it to? Just back into the tank. I could see that working great. THey move about 500gph and up.

Yes, back into the tank

Exactly what I do with my ATV bed mounted sprayer and you driving and spraying keep it mixes. My big 3 point mount 250 gallon spray rig has continuous agitation provided by the pto driven roller pump an it's adjustable as well. Glyphosate when mixed in the tank will stay mixed for a long time anyway. Other chemicals, not so much.

Chemical gloves when mixing or no touch. I do the no touch method myself, followed by a rinse and a tad bit of Dawn dishwash detergent and another rinse. Don't forget to remove tnd clean the Tee-Jet strainers located at each spray head either.

My ATV sprayer use to have a mixing valve on it but I use that for a boomless nozzle. I find just driving around a bit mixed just fine.

I can see the return port that they use for agitation in that photo above. I know, because I have the same unit, except I have the 12' boom attached

Your 26 gallon doesn't have it?

I normally fill 1/3 tank of water, put the glyphosate in and fill the rest of the way. Not sure if there is much more you need to do. If your concerned then use a spray want to agitate the water more when filling.

That's how I mix my 35G sprayer. I have a special hose with no end fitting and city water pressure of 100PSI.
I don't have a UTV/ATV, so I put the tank on a 3-pt carrier I made and run wiring to the tractor battery.
I haven't tried this in my new bigger tractor yet.

You guys using these sprayers on a atv. Is your stator keeping up?

I don't understand the question. Mine sits in the bed and runs off of a rv battery. I could hook it into the UTV power, but I prefer to keep 'em separated. (Queue the music)

We usually use the wand, but it has a boom, too.

For who are using the utv/atv battery, is your stator keeping up OK?
