After you have determined your nozzle size, you need to look at the calibration chart. Using your calculated speed, nozzle size, and desired gallons per acre (GPA), find the pressure (psi) necessary to achieve your GPA.
Maintenance Instructions Routine Maintenance It is very important to perform routine maintenance on your sprayer boom before and after each use. Good maintenance practices will help to guard against any breakdowns or accidents. Note: Always wear the proper Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) when performing maintenance on your sprayer. It is recommended to perform a visual and physical inspection for worn parts, loose bolts, damaged hoses, or other visible problems.
