OPERATION
This unit is easy to run. There are only two valves on the unit. The main mixing valve is opened fully when mixing and closed to a 45 degree angle in which case it is half open and half closed. This provides some mixing action but gives added spray power. There is also a valve going to the discharge hose. This is always fully open when spraying but can be closed to disconnect the discharge hose. The discharge hose is connected with a quick coupler. Should you need to go someplace to get water the hose can quickly be disconnected so when you have a new load mixed up you can connect the hose and start spraying right where you left off. It eliminates the need to wrap up the hose before you are finished.TRANSPORT
The HS-300 is a skid type unit that can be operated from a small trailer, from the back of a pickup truck from the back of a utility vehicle and any other means of transporting the unit. It is available as a pull type unit which is DOT compliant with brakes on both axles and highway legal.
