Subject: Raven problems


Central Kansas
I am running a sprayer with raven valves. I am running a standard control valve with a three section boom shutoff on a raven 440. It seems we are having two problems. First when turning and shutting off master switch it can take up to ten seconds for the tips to quit running. I thought maybe it was the diaphragms but have moved that to the back burner because it doesn't matter which section and it is all the tips. The second problem is the pressure doesn't come up quickly when the booms are turned back on so when I speed up coming out if the turn I actually am not applying the correct rate which causes some streaking issues.

So my question is what is the problem? I have had a wire break on the control valve and fixed it at home. It still controls but could I have caused a resistance in the fix that is causing this issue?

I am lost right now and need to think this out while I am planting corn so when it comes time.to spray again I am ready to go.

TIA
Kevin
