Sprayer 3pt Sprayer Required Pressure (?)

[snakebitten]

Trying to trouble shoot my 4-5 year old Ag Meir Continental Belton 3pt broadcast (one nozzle) sprayer, PTO pump, w/200 gallon tank. It's not broadcasting the spray as much as previous years. What should the pressure be at the gauge? Going to replace gauge tomorrow. I have only sprayed herbicides (no roundup) to date and rinse/flush out rig after every use. Thanks in advance!

Yellow stain in tank, recent use of Prowl H2O

PTO driven?

Might look here for sprayer product manual...

I run mine at 80 psi, before I open the spray valve. Then the pressure drops to about 45-50 psi. Seems to work great for me.

Try taking the nozzle off and cleaning it by hand. You might have a partial blockage.
