Excellent video Snowlover. I've had my Northstar for about a year now and did not know the pump was an on-demand pump, I guess I never let it get up to pressure. Thanks to your video I just ordered the Valley Wand you use to clean my 2 story house and say goodbye to tall ladders, thanks so much..

@djg1028 5 лет назад

Lonnie Thank you, and depending upon how you have the pressure knob adjusted will affect when the pump shuts off.

@garyfrazier3555 Год назад

Just bought this same sprayer didn't have to make any adjustments to it you don't have to make it difficult it works great

@2hot 5 лет назад

After watching your video I ordered the same spray gun with my sprayer. I also added quick connects so I can swap out sprayer wands easily. That way I can use the wand that came with it (with the nozzle removed) for watering potted plants and swap it with the high pressure sprayer wand when needed. In hind sight I wish I had used hydraulic quick connects like used on tractors instead of the ones for high pressure sprayers. That way it could be used without any spray wand attached (when using just the booms) since the hydraulic quick connects seal when disconnected. The internal springs on the hydraulic quick connects are stainless steel so rust shouldn't be an issue over time.

That was an excellent review, many thanks. Great definition to boot. I especially appreciate your pointing out the mods and aftermarket accessories (hitch adapter, different wand, added tape, tightened hose clamps, etc.)

there's nothing wrong with the accessories that come with the unit. This guy didn't state WHY he didn't like the accessories nor why he chose aftermarket instead... sounds like some guy that has more money than brains.

@djg1028 3 года назад

@Episode8wasgarbage 3 года назад

So I know this was made 4.5 years ago, but quick question. I have 45 acres, including woods, fields, etc. I by no mean need to spray 45 acres, but I will have to move this sprayer around the property to spray small portions I might want to for food plots for deer etc. How do you think it will hold up to operation on rough terrain? I wonder if something like this would be better or worse than a sprayer that attaches to back rack of my ATV, or UTV.

@djg1028 3 года назад

If it’s rough terrain I would probably get the one that attaches to the racks.

any way we could get some general applications of setting spray nozzles for what ya'll are finding works best for "boom" spraying herbicides and or liquid fertilizers. Trying to eradicate weeds while establishing pasture grasses in .5 acre paddocks . Thanks! ps appreciate the videos and time taken to help others!

@djg1028 6 лет назад

texheel What I spray is weed spray similar to round up that kills everything in its path. I just have everything turned on full blast and drive along with the boom at about 5 miles an hour.

@mnvikes24 4 года назад

Great review, I am looking at the same sprayer. Have you used it on hills (pulling along the hill, not up and down) and if so does the sprayer want to slide at all or does it pull true? I have ditches on my property that on a county road, so would like to pull along the road vs. up and down the hill.

@djg1028 4 года назад

Fargo Guy It might do OK but I don’t think it’s really designed to be used on big hills

@curtisrichmond8134 4 года назад

@exodusfarm 3 года назад

I just bought one and can't get pressure to build up. Checked all the hoses and they are tight. Any suggestions?

@djg1028 3 года назад

That’s very odd, make sure the hose clamps are all tight. Next call the manufacturer or number in your owners manual and do the trouble shooting steps with them.

@jayragoonanan2598 3 года назад

Might be a dumb question but is there a wireless system to replace the on/off cable? Trying to maneuver a zero turn an spray at the same time is a task as is but that wire constantly gets wrapped up on the sprayer wheel's. Such a headache

@djg1028 6 лет назад

Jeff Crane I can say that nothing has broke on it and it works great. Used it several times and I did the job great. Always plenty of power with the pump which is nice. As you know I had to make my own hitch to fit my ball hitch and I put on an aftermarket wand from northern tool. And after assembly I had to make sure all the hose connections were tight and always try with water before chemicals but since first try there has never been any leaks.

@thenoizfaktory 7 лет назад

What is the length of the power cord for the on/off switch? Is it possible to make it longer?

@djg1028 7 лет назад

thenoizfaktory sorry for the delay, I didn't know and had to check. I measured my cord and it's exactly 8 feet long. It comes with the cord with the alligator clips and you can also purchase the 12V plug cord separately from northern tool and that also measures 8 feet. I'm not sure if you can make it longer.

@USMC-Sniper-0137 6 лет назад

The longer you make the power line, the larger gauge you should go. So for our 8' power line as is might be 16g. so if you wish to go to 24' you could jump to 12g. and 30 - 40 feet you could go to 10 g. and so on. The thin power wires get hot with ling runs and is harder on your motors, etc. The lower the gauge, the thicker your wire.

@djg1028 Год назад

@@timothymusson5040 well, it’s kind of self explanatory, if you’re driving too fast, you may not spray the coverage as heavy as you would like but if you drive slower, it’s definitely going to spray heavier, so it really depends on what kind of chemicals you’re spraying and what you’re trying to achieve, but I would say you can go right along at 5 miles an hour no problem
