Reinforcement For Sprayer Mounting Arms SPRAYING Accessories “I bought a 40-gal capacity 3-pt hitch sprayer for my utility tractor and where the pins connected to the hitch the metal didn’t seem very strong I made a simple reinforcement that solved the problem ” says Illinois farmer Russ Dormire Dormire’s solution was to support the connecting pins on both sides of the hitch with old pieces of no 55 roller chain Says Dormire “I cut 2 pieces of chain to wrap around the mounting pins and the frame of the 3-pt allowing about 8 extra lengths on each one Then I bolted the chain together with a 3/8-in bolt with washers on both ends When I tightened the nut the chain snugged up and supported the mounting pin so there wasn’t so much pressure on the sprayer arms I’ve filled the tank several times since then and used it around my yard and along field edges and in the grove and it seems to hold real well ” Contact: FARM SHOW Followup Ross Dormire 971 895 E Street Mt Sterling Ill 62353 ph 217 773-3574
