15 Gallon Gold Spot Sprayer, 2.2 GPM, Deluxe Handgun

Built for the fence line, the driveway edge and the weeds around the barn. This spot sprayer puts a 15 gallon tank and a 2.2 GPM 12 volt pump on an ATV rack, in a UTV bed or in the back of a pickup. You get a deluxe handgun, 15 feet of 3/8 inch hose and a 10 foot wire harness with battery clips, so you can hook up and spray without hunting for parts.

The handgun has an adjustable pattern tip. Twist it from a straight stream for spot treatments to a wide fan for fence lines and broad patches. It throws up to 30 feet horizontally and 18 feet vertically, which puts the spray on weeds at the post line and along the lawn edge without walking the whole area.

• 12 volt pump rated to 2.2 GPM
• Deluxe handgun reaches 30 feet horizontally and 18 feet vertically

What it's for

Spot spraying is the everyday job on a place with fence lines, driveways, a gravel lane and the weeds that come up around posts and the barn. A full boom sprayer is overkill for that work. A 15 gallon tank on a 12 volt pump runs off the vehicle battery, so you can spray well past the nearest power outlet, and it moves with you from one patch to the next.

It suits a rancher keeping the fence line clear, a homeowner with acreage and a UTV, a landscaper doing spot work, or a hobby farm with a side-by-side that needs a sprayer without a second trailer.

How to use it

1. Secure the tank to your rack, bed or truck box so it can't shift on rough ground.
2. Clip the harness to a 12 volt battery and check the connection is tight before you run the pump.
3. Mix the product following label directions, and fill the tank without overfilling.
4. Twist the handgun nozzle to the pattern you need: a straight stream for spot treatments, a wide fan for fence lines.
5. When you finish, rinse the tank, then run clean water through the pump and handgun.

Good to know

• Clean the filter. The in-tank filter keeps grit out of the pump and handgun. Check it before a long job.
• Keep the clips clean. Clean, tight battery clips give the 12 volt pump steady power.
• Rinse after every use. Lawn and garden products left in the lines turn into clogs. Clean water through the lines keeps the sprayer ready.
• Drain before a freeze. Empty the tank and run clean water through the pump before cold weather, so nothing is left to freeze in the lines.
• Gear up. Chemical-resistant gloves, safety glasses, a measuring cup and a funnel with a strainer make mixing quick and clean.

Keep the threaded cap tight and the drain closed when you travel, and store the sprayer out of direct sun between jobs.

Have it mounted and filled before the weeds get ahead of the fence line.
