A good sprayer is a critical part
of today’s chemical farming. To
prevent costly repairs and time
loss when you’re ready to use it
again next spring, prepare it
properly for winter storage now.
Cleaning, checking and
protecting spray equipment before
storage will minimize problems
and extend its useful life, says
University of Delaware extension
agricultural engineer Tom
Williams.
Cleaning should include a
thorough washing inside and out
with sudsy water. Use v 4 pound of
powdered detergent per 25 gallons
of water or enough liquid detergent
to make a sudsy solution. Circulate
the detergent through the sprayer
for 10 minutes, then empty the tank
by spraying the solution through

To neutralize pesticide residues
such as 2, 4-D, 2, 4-DB and Banvel,
Williams says to fill the tank at
least half full with clean water and
add 1 quart of household ammonia
for each 25 gallons of water. Cir
culate the mixture through the
cprayer for 10 minutes, then pump
some through the boom and noz
zles. Leave the ammonia solution
in the sprayer overnight and spray
it out through the nozzles the next
morning. Flush the system with a
tank full of clean water.
Remove and clean all screens,
nozzles, check valves and filters
and put them back in place. If your
sprayer has a ground driven pump,
change the oil in the gearbox. If the
oil is milky or looks contaminated
with water, the pump needs new

packing. Replace any worn parts
or deteriorated hoses.
Finally, make up enough
solution of 50 percent permanent
antifreeze and 50 percent water to
fill the pump, booms and tank
above the agitation pipe. Circulate
the mixture through the system
and pump enough through the
nozzles'to fill the boom. Leave this
in the sprayer until next spring to
prevent freezing, rust and
corrosion.
“Some storage recom
mendations suggest filling the
pump with oil,” Williams says.
“But oil and water don’t mix, and
even a little water left in the
system could be enough to damage
the pump during freezing weather.
It’s better to use antifreeze to
protect the pump.”
Take the time to prep your
sprayer for storage, the specialist
concludes. It’s worth it.
