HOW TO USE YOUR SPRAYER • Determine the approximate square footage of the area to be sprayed. Use this amount to estimate the number of gallons that will be required, based on product recommendations. This can help avoid unneeded solution left in the tank. • Determine the application rate (gallons per 1,000 sq. feet or gallons per acre) based on the chemical manufacturers recommendations. • Use the tip chart on page 9 to determine what ground speed will achieve the recommended application rate.
