Nozzle Height Adjustment
After Spraying
Nozzles can be used at various heights within the recommended range. However, this will affect the spray pattern width and the gallons per acre (GPA) applied.
Adverse Wind Conditions
With boomless spray nozzles, as with other spraying methods, high or gusty wind conditions can cause drifting or pattern movements, adversely affecting spray coverage. If this occurs, wait for more favorable conditions before continuing.
Plumbing Requirements
Make sure that all plumbing components and feed lines can properly supply the nozzle or nozzles at their rated GPM and PSI. The type of pump used as well as the size and length of the feed line will also affect how efficiently the volume is delivered to the nozzle or nozzles. Minimum hose size and plumbing requirements are:

Proper Nozzle Operation
To insure proper nozzle operation all pressure readings must be taken directly before the nozzle or nozzles.
After use, fill your sprayer tank part way with water. Start your sprayer, and allow the clear water to be pumped through this plumbing system and out through the spray nozzle. Refill your tank about half full with plain water and use FIMCO Tank Neutralizer and Cleaner, and repeat cleaning instructions above. Flush your entire sprayer, including this boomless plumbing setup, with the neutralizing/cleaning agent, then flush out one more time with plain water. Follow the chemical manufacturer's disposal instructions of all wash or rinsing water. For the boomless nozzle, remove the tip and screen from the nozzle assembly. Wash these items out thoroughly. Blow the orifice clean and dry. If the orifice remains clogged, clean it with a fine bristle (NOT WIRE) brush, or with a toothpick. Do not damage the orifice. Water rinse and dry the tips before storing. The screen at the tip (Item 24) is between the elbow (Item 19) and the adaptor (Item 3).
Winter Storage
Drain all water out of your sprayer, paying special attention to your pump, handgun, and valve(s). These items are especially prone to damage from chemicals and freezing weather.
Your sprayer should be winterized before storage by pumping a solution of RV antifreeze through the entire plumbing system. This antifreeze solution should remain in the plumbing system during the winter months. When spring time comes and you are preparing your sprayer for the spray season, rinse the entire plumbing system out, clearing the lines of the antifreeze solution. Proper care and maintenance will prolong the life of your sprayer.
SPRAYING SAFETY:
ALWAYS WEAR PROTECTIVE CLOTHING WHEN SPRAYING AND/OR HANDLING ANY AND ALL CHEMICALS.
