    Default UTV sprayer question

    I bought a Polaris 1000 not long ago. My FIMCO 25 gallon tank is boomless. I notice with the tailgate down the spray nozzles are a good bit higher from the ground than on my Mule. Is that an issue? I really hate to buy some boom type.
    What say the rubberheads?

    I made something to stick in the receiver hitch for the nozzles to attach to.

    Can you adjust the angle to keep it the width you want? Test it with water obviously.

    Just adjust the angle. Gravity takes care of the rest.

    Yeah, the width is no problem. I just thought maybe the height of the spray tips will make it hard for the droplets to reach the ground in the amount they need to, if that makes any sense.

    I use a boomless one on my Honda. I built a platform on the bottom of the tank, put long 1/4 bolts through it and drilled holes in the bed.

    Works just fine.

    This is a cheap Harbor Freight sprayer that we have rigged up to the battery with 1 alligator clip attached and the other is hooked to a ground near the roll bar when we want to turn it on. The boom came from Amazon and we ziptied it to the 2x4 and then screwed it to a 2x6 and if fits perfectly between the bumper and bed. We use it to spray like and fertilizer put of. I might have $125 in the whole set up and it is easy to take in and out.

    You can also put some dye in it to see coverage.

    I have Ranger 900XP and the boomless nozzle but mine can be adjusted up and down

    Just do not use on windy day

    I just started seeing those things advertised on Facebook. They look pretty awesome but a little pricey how has yours worked out?
