Dormant spray season is nigh. My orchard has outgrown my backpack sprayer. Now that you have had this battery powered cart sprayer for few years, how has it held up?

How do you clean out the tank on that cart sprayer? I may be interested in that for surround but needs to be easily cleaned. Thanks.
Quite well. It’s easy to drain. I had to replace the battery once, possibly because I let it run down - apparently you are supposed to keep that kind plugged in.

It has a plug near the bottom, you open it, let the remnants flow out, then hose out the inside.
I don’t know about Surround, I’d worry about it clogging the hose coupling. I usually add clean water to the tank and spray it out, dunno if that would work w/surround, tho. But I’ve never used Surround.
Hi,
I know this is an older thread but I did purchase this cart and it works well. Very easy to use. Thanks.

I know this an older thread but I am looking for a battery powered sprayer. Since you mentioned the one from Northern Tool are you still using the battery sprayer you mentioned here? I see it is still available at Northern Tool.

Yes. They still have it, tho it has been modified somewhat under a different manufacturer.

Is it still sold through Northern Tool or a different company/ supplier?
no idea! i traded mine in for a petratool on a little pull wagon, i found the battery lasted longer, and it came with a 7 foot spray extension

Probably not the same thing but I for what it’s worth I set up a tractor supply trailer sprayer behind a motorcycle and run it off a 12v battery. It has a broadcast boom and a wand for spot spraying
