I personally wouldn't bother with the nozzle filters. The last sprayer here had them and it wasn't unusual to have a blocked nozzle. The present sprayer doesn't have nozzle filters but it does have an inline filter and I've yet to get out and clear a blocked nozzle.
why are there black tips and red tips is one of them low drift or are they the exact same.
The red caps with black tips are probably hardy's old system, (when they knew better than everyone else) 4110/16s and the red tips in red caps are probably the new system ISO 04's, you would need to read the small print on the tips.
Yep they are both 110 16 what does the 16 mean?
The 16 is to do with the output, hardi have abandoned the users of their older nozzles with out much support, maybe some of the older hardi heads on here might have the output charts for them, but hardi don't seem to want people to know anymore.
110 degree fan pattern and 1.6l a minute flow at 3 bar
useful chart there, want to spray grassland at 100L per acre at 10 kph may get a brown set going by that chart or would 10 kph be too fast on grassland?
10 kph is fine on grassland unless you have a wide boom in small paddocks in which case slower will be easier.
Assuming it's docks your after I wouldn't cut the water rate. I spray the same rate per acre as yourself at 7.2 kmh at 3.25 bar.
How many litres would you be short of to do it in one load?. I have to admit I would cut the water rate if I going to be short. I'd safely chance 80 litres in your position and i'd add an extra bit of spray to strengthen the mix a bit. What are you using?
. Its hurler (left since last year ) i`m using at the minute there was another brand got today supposedly hurler`s replacement
It's binder that was got to replace hurlerThere`d be 4/5 load`s in it if not a bit more . There`s plenty ground there that need`s spraying . The farm is split into 6 and 3 ac field`s had hoped to do 12 ac per load to void doing half a field . Reckon i`ll stay at the 100 if it did`nt kill as well at the 80 i`d be listening to it
Hurler, Reaper, Binder and others are generic Starane, (fluroxypur).
I've used Reaper a couple of times on headlands that suffer with that dirty feckin cleaver or sticky back as some call it. Horrible stuff for wrapping around the combine reel. And of coarse there's always a thistle in there for good measure when pulling it off.
Make your own:Thumbp2:
That's what I was thinking . Must inquire about the length of pipe and other bit's . Now 2 nozzles or 3 one's I've seen advertised have 2 together st the bottom albeit the lower one at a 45 dig angle . Is there a need for that ? .
