Subject: No problem.


My Willmar is fitted so I can run "pure" water out of the nurse tank into the booms. Just set my controller volume to 50 and when she counts down to 0 the boom is clean. The bypass in the tank is then dumped. I do this in the last field or any of the many gravel roads around the farm. Can't do this with some other products due to residue effects. But RU is no problem.

Remember that on most 60ft booms you have to run 10gal of product into the booms before it is "charged". If you boom is bigger or smaller you can see how much to use by watching the color change while using any of the "color" chems like old Prowl. When the tips are all the same color, you know how much it takes.

Most "kills" are due to the boom being "dirty".
