Nice looking equipment. What is the biggest change from the older models or is there? I haven't read up much on these but they look like that would be a good piece of equipment to have.

Seems to be some nice improvements. I like the gas tank, larger spray tank and the Honda engine.
Let us know how they work out. Should be interesting.

Is spray drift a problem with these units? That is my one concern.

Do the nozzles clog often? Are they easy to access and clean?

Dusty,

How is it now that the tranny is down by your feet? I liked the fact that you could shift into 1st or reverse right by your hand....Is there much of a difference with the Lesco hopper on there?

G-view,
Good questions about the nozzles. They're supposed to be closer to the ground, reducing drift.

i do not see a problem with the new units due to the tips being real low to the ground

it spreads really nice i like the new hopper on it and it is huge u could swim in it lol

i like it u can move it with your foot easy enough it also engages with a more postive feel
hope this helps

Dusty are you sure you don't work for PG it sure sounds like it. You better watch out Sean will get mad at you for talking good about this unit. Or is just me that he doesn't like? I have tried to email him about deleting my post about my machines and he won't respond to them. so watch out. (The First Women In Spraying).
