Yes. The nozzle on back of tank can be turned on when you drive along, or you can spray with the hose & handle sprayer as you go. The hose is long enough to reach the seat of a lawn tractor or 4-wheeler.

How do you winterize this sprayer?
Just bought the sprayer. Unless I'm blind the manual doesn't mention any special prep for freezing temps. Is it good enough to just run the pump dry for a few seconds or do you have to blow it out or pump antifreeze through it?
-
fdc1972· 7 years ago
I use rv antifreeze in tank.
Helpful?
-
ProductExpert30· 8 years ago
On page 42 of the manual is the information for storage. When not in use, store the sprayer indoors. For long term or winter storage, prepare the sprayer by running RV antifreeze through the system. This will keep internal parts lubricated, protect against corrosion, and keep the unit from freezing.

Why does the manual only refer to pesticides and not herbicides? Is it OK to spray weed control herbicides with this?
-
CaptainWalt· 9 years ago
I use it for weed control products and it works just fine. After completion I run just water through to clean out the pump and tank so it is clean and ready for the next use.

Is it possible to change the nozzles?
In particular, the broadcast nozzle for those applications that require greater than 1.18 gpm.
-
gr8whthunter76· 9 years ago
just go slower if you need more product on your yard, no need to change nozzle. It is all threaded though so yes you could change, but not really necessary, just slow down some.

Northern Tool cannot recommend or advise on making modifications (including changing nozzle size/type) to this sprayer. Modifications will void the manufacturer's warranty.

Flow rates thru nozzles
The info on the website says the flow rate is 1 gpm, but that is the max flow of the pump with no restriction or backpressure. Has anyone measured the actual flow out of each nozzle (on the wand and the broadcast nozzle)?
-

IrontonExpert· 11 years ago
The actual flow rate is 1.18 gpm for the broadcast nozzle and 0.5-1.08 gpm for the wand nozzle.
