A: We do not recommend extending the hose to 150 feet. Here is why, along with what you need to know regarding pump upgrades: Hose Length & Pressure Drop: Pumping liquid through 150 feet of hose creates significant pressure loss. We recommend a maximum hose length of 50 feet on this unit. Pushing past 50 feet causes a dramatic drop in pressure at the spray tip, resulting in a weak spray pattern and reduced horizontal/vertical reach. Pump Upgrades: Swapping to a larger GPM pump will not solve the pressure issue on a long hose run. Higher GPM pumps push a larger volume of fluid, but the narrow diameter of a long hose creates friction that restricts flow and kills the pressure at the nozzle regardless of pump capacity. Additionally, larger pumps require higher amp draws that may exceed standard wiring limits. For optimal performance, distance, and spray pattern, keeping the hose length at or under 50 feet is strongly advised.

A: The short answer is no, you absolutely cannot connect a pressure washer directly to the sprayer's pump or manifold. The sprayer’s High Flo pump is a low-pressure diaphragm pump designed to top out at 60 PSI. Feeding that 12-volt pump into a high-pressure machine (which requires a high-volume gravity feed or a pressurized garden hose and operates at thousands of PSI) will instantly starve the pressure washer, ruin its pump, and completely destroy the sprayer’s manifold and plumbing.

A: Yes, the unit features a bypass line that acts as a recirculation system to keep chemicals mixed. This system diverts a portion of the flow back into the tank to provide agitation.

A: No, the Fimco 65 gal. Lawn and Garden Spot Sprayer (5303623) is not safe for transporting drinking water. It is specifically designed for agricultural chemicals and does not meet the standards required for potable water storage.

A: Yes, the bypass line acts as a recirculation system by diverting a portion of the flow back into the tank, which helps keep chemicals mixed. It also serves as your pressure regulator, allowing you to decrease the spray pressure at the wand by opening the bypass valve.

A: Yes, you can absolutely adjust the pressure down on the Fimco 65 gal. Lawn and Garden Spot Sprayer!

A: no the tank is not baffled.

A: It would not be recommended for this type of use. You would experience a considerable amount of clogging on the strainers, as well as it may also affect the check valve in the pump.

A: there is a manifold connected to the pump with 3 outlets. One outlet connects to the hand wand, one is for the bypass line and a third one for the connection of a boom if you should so happen to want to attach one.
