Will probably kick myself shortly but I have gone back to the graveyard and pulled the old century 300 gal boom sprayer out. I need a rig and buying one is out of the question. I have a few questions that I would appreciate help with. Will use this to spray alfalfa for weevil and to kill grass. May also use to spray some small fields of row crop for weed/ grass control.
Wanting to run 30 or 40 foot boom.
How do i calculate pump size needed will run off tractor pto (65 hp tractor)
how does an agitator work and is it needed?
What variables go into the manifold?
Is it better to shut of sprayer with electric solenoid or just turn off pto?
Will not need markers I have a trimble 250
When completed I will post before after photos, will also post the dog house i will be living out of for taking this on
Help is appreciated
