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.
