OOPS! First time I uploaded pics to Plowsite. I did down size them perhaps not quite enough, I didn't mean to hawg the whole page. Also now understand file renaming. Dam newbies.

 

Hey kubota can you tell me more about your setup in your pick-up. Like how many gallons and what did it cost Etc. Thanks

Would love to: 150 gallon PCO tank 2" riverside ploy pump, 5.5 hp Briggs and Stratton gas engine recoil start, 12 volt electric 3 way recirculating boom valve w/ switch in the cab, 80" spray bar, on a treated skid. It can self fill thru a 2" suction hose, simply hook up suction hose turn 2 valves start the engine and it will draw liquid from any container. The boom has Teejet SJ-3 triple stream tips. All hoses are either EPDM or PVC. I custom built this sprayer and it was sold to another member on Plow site. I'm currently building a twin of that sprayer for another contractor in my home area. It sold for $ 2,250 ready to spray. Assembled and tested.

Please tell me you strap that baby down in the pick-up!
Do you strap it down just like a salt spreader??
(front to back back to front)

 

Eye bolts and turn buckles to the in bed mounts and the tail gate goes back on. But not spraying with a truck with a bed rug.

 

Hey

Hello guys, nice job with sprayers.
I have one question, do you use pump with special diaphragm or standard rubber diaphragm pump. Does the salt erode the pump parts???

Thank you.

 

Give me two weeks and ill post up pictures of our hybrid granular/spray dump truck. Still on order!

I use regular 5.5 or 6.5HP trash pumps. I pay like 200 bucks for them..
Sometimes i rinse the tank out with soap and water at the end of the season then run that through the pump but other than that...I usually end up replacing a few seals then the pump is all good!

Yeah what he said! If you didn't need any bells and whistles you could put a sprayer together for around $500-750 depending on tank size and pump/motor.

 

Here a a couple of my favorites!

 

Is it my monitor or is what your spraying green?

 

It is green. If I remember the story right it was a special custom blend requested by the property owner and it was to thick for the snowex to spray properly. My sprayer would have eaten that up and spit it out just fine!

 

It's green, apogee from envirotech. Its so expensive I might as well be spraying aunt jemima's! The sprayer came from snowex with air leaks at every joint. The distributor took care of me not snowex and now the pumps push the product just great. Not impressed, it's my first and last mistake with them.

 

Bump, let's bring this thread back to life. I'm looking now at getting into liquid this year and it has gotten a lot of attention as of late. Show up what you got. Share the knowledge.

 

M35A2 with a 1035 gallon tank, turbo turf pump, 3 lane boom with adjustable nozzles and wireless remote. I have reduced my salt consumption from about 20 tons per storm down to about 8 tons per storm with this set up. It is a great feeling when you drop the plow and see nothing but black wet pavement even when it is only like 15 degrees out.

 

So do you oretreat and spray after you plow? I have a 75 gal system I am trying for the first time this year. I only do about 50 ton of salt per season looking to make more spend less.

I mostly use it for pre treating, but I will use it for post treatment if the conditions are right. If the lot is really icy and slippery after I plow I stick with rock salt but if it's just residual snow left behind I will go with liquids for a fast cheap meltdown

 

Lets see what you boys were up too in the off season, any new DIY builds out there. This is one of our customer builds we finished up after the season this year. We are currently finishing up our new 800G Brine maker(cant wait to run salt through it). and working on our New F450 Bulk Sprayer build for this coming winter.

 

Yea any new design ideas for sprayers?

 

1000 gallon we built last year.
