3 Point Sprayer?

[patrick_g]

I use a 3PH mounted sprayer with PTO driven pump. It came with a single nozzle for pasture spraying and a gun to manually spray trees or whatever (shoots straight up over 30 feet) and I added a pair of booms with distributed spray nozzles and plumbed it so I can run any configuration, single nozzle, boom nozzles, gun, any two or all three. The booms fall into position by gravity and will pivot out of the way if they hit anything, returning to their normal position automatically.

It is over 100 gal (don't recall right now) but still doesn't last long enough for good fire suppression, a secondary duty. I will be building a water trailer with a 1000 gal poly tank on it and either use a PTO pump or separate engine driven pump so I could pull it with a truck and still run the pump.

I bought the FIMCO 50 PTO pump sprayer at a local farm supply store. I primarily to spray weed killer on roughly 2 acres right now. I has a hand wand as well as 2 boom sprayers that fold for those tight spots. Only thing I need to do is to seperate the left and right booms with a valve so I can choose the left, right or both at the same time. Great unit, the roller pump is a pain you need to keep it from rusting up but all in all it has been a great choice.

Found what I think was a very good deal on a 3 point sprayer. It is a brand new one. It has a 55 gallon polly tank, very sturdy frame, 6 roller heavy duty PTO pump, pressure regulator with gauge, by pass system where the excess goes back into the tank, shut off valve, 50 feet of hose with a gun and a 12 foot boom, 5 foot main beam with 2 3 1/2 foot fold up sections. Should do all I need, Thanks for the input!

Also bought a very clean lightly used 7 foot Brillion 3 point cultipacker/pulveriser while I was there for what I think was a great price. Good day!
