I needed to spray my hayfield and decided this was a job for the 430. It is a broadcast sprayer instead of a boom sprayer so the extra height the 430V gives an implement would be great.
The sprayer is new to me so I ran some tests with just plain water first. I was disappointed with the results. But then it hit me. I was so excited about using the 430 I unfortunately I neglected one thing: The sprayer has an electric pump: A 12 V electric pump. I refuse to admit how long it took me to realize why it was spraying so terrible.
12V pumps do not do well with 6V systems (-:
Once again the Ford was pressed into service...
