FYI , according to Ryobi the sprayer can deliver up to 90 psi. I just started using mine and am impressed. Also there is a removable strainer in bottom of tank on pump inlet. For the sprayer weighing close to 50 lbs. with 4 gallons it is easy to carry on your back.

@0dark352 жыл бұрын
@@mainj54 I think that is a completely legit point. If you are starting from scratch, buy a sprayer from Pete with his nozzles and you are done. Sourcing these parts is expensive via mail. I got lucky and found the trigger on the cheap and I ended up sourcing it from 3 vendors over the course of a week for under $70. A Northern Tool Trigger and Pete's kit 35 + 30 comes in at about the same. My Ryobi sprayer is 2yrs old and I am on the Ryobi battery platform, upgrading the wand made sense and it will also last forever. Now if starting from scratch I would just buy a sprayer from Pete with his set up. This saves a lot of time and headache. Happy spraying!

I watched KZbin reviews on this sprayer, both by itself and in comparison to others in generally the same price range and this sprayer came out VERY well if not on top. I bought mine yesterday at HD and have not opened the box just yet. You, like some other reviewers mentioned the awkwardness of screwing the top cover back on. A commenter of 1 reviewer said he had that cover problem also and he sprayed silicone on the tanks threads as well as the covers threads and o-ring and it made the covers placement silky smooth. I will do that when I open my box soon. You try that and see how it works. I too have felt that Ryobi has improved greatly and continues to be building some pretty good equipment . Several years ago I was using the same sprayer for both vegetation killer and weed control and liquid fertilizers and was careless in not adequately flushing glycophosphate from the tank and hose and on my next use of it as a weed killer I did some pretty good damage in one area. I beat myself up over that and I now use a VERY clearly marked dedicated sprayer for spraying vegetation killers.Everything gets rinsed after use. Excellent video by the way.

I would think twice before buying. I purchased 2 of them 2 years ago. The first one ran about two minutes. Ryobi customer service was useless but Home Depot allowed me to return it. The second one worked great for the season but worked about 5 minutes the second season. As a testament to their battery life I sprayed an entire season and only had to charge the battery once. I expected a longer life. Will never buy another Ryobi product.

I use mine mostly for my apps of Prodamine .. ah yes the cap.. it will eventually break in and get easier. I love mine the only issue is where the left strap joins the tank on the back always rubs my shoulder and literally will rub my skin off... But overall a very solid performer well worth the money. Not having to pump it is easier plus I believe gives you a more even application. Keep up the great videos always enjoy them.
