I'd love a video on how you built that spray rig!

Excellent idea, thanks for the great tip!

Good tip Bradley! I'm curious . . . do you clean out and lubricate the pump after every use or only at the end of the season? I use my sprayer as a remote watering source (with hand wand) and 95% of the time there is no chemical at all in the tank - just water. This my first year using the Ag Spray 55 gallon boomless pump / spray rig and I plan to detach the HYPRO pump at the end of the season, lubricate it well, then bring it indoors to prevent freezing. Your thoughts?

I clean mine after each use and then fill it up with antifreeze and store it in the barn. It’s a pain in the butt if your using it multiple days in a row, but glyphosate is really rough on those iron pumps. I lubricate it after removing the antifreeze prior to use. I think as long as you are not running a lot of Glyphosate through it you will be fine to only remove it at the end of the season as long as you keep it lubricated.

Thanks for the video. What size banjo quick connects did you use? I have a 6500c roller pump also 3:32

[@buckhavenlandsolutions539]

I think they are 3/4 but I’d have to double check that.

Where did you find the long shiny metal piece on top of the roller pump? I need one.

[@buckhavenlandsolutions539]

It actually came with the pump. I believe I got it from tractor supply.

[@gcmillar]

Where did you get the parts for your manifold for the sprayer?

[@buckhavenlandsolutions539]

You should be able to get them at any tractor supply or hardware store that sells plumbing

what is the advantage of roller pump in comparison with a ordinary gasoline motor pump?

[@MegaPaul1973]

Roller pumps runs off the tractors PTO so you're not having to use a second source of fuel.

[@buckhavenlandsolutions539]

The roller pump like mentioned above uses the PTO so it eliminates the need for a second motor. The gas pumps basically have the exact same type pump in them but they are ran from the crack shaft of the gas motor instead of tractor PTO.
