Front-Mount 55-Gal Rinse Tank
 ✖  |
Robert Walton, Rosebush, Mich.: "I mount a 55-gal. rinse tank (an old horse feeder) on front of my tractor when planting. It allows me to rinse out the sprayer pump and nozzles when banding herbicides. A clear plastic line runs from the tank back to the sprayer pump. In the past I've found that if my planter breaks down and I have to shut off the saddle tanks, the pump and nozzles often plug up. By opening a valve on the rinse tank I can flush everything out. The same tank can be used for emergency rinsing in the field in case of a spill. It also makes it easier to pre-rinse the saddle tanks right in the field."
