    have had logic and quad x sprayers no real difference between them, comes down to price. both had normal shaped tank 60l. a bit of a nuince when changing sprays, as hard to get last 10l out, as well as on hilly ground as the liquid moves from side to side and pipe cant suck it up. best to get tank that sits down along mudguards if you have a lot of hilly ground. haven't used one though.
    don't get front mounted tank as it will kill your arms after 10 min with steering.
    if the tank is to big it just makes the quad to hard to control. have the 60l on a honda 420 wouldn't get a bigger tank for it.
    the lancer on most sprayers are pretty much useless for large amounts of spot spraying. we bought a hardi sprayer gun, not cheap though, it will spray accurately over 10ft from quad seat and wont leave a drip or trail after shouting
    the type of quad also makes a lot of difference to the comfort when spot spraying. if your able to switch between 2 and 4wd makes the steering very easy. manual shift is better then electric as it leaves hands free for gun and throttle, autos are useless as not enough gears and not enough control over speed

    I bought from Nothern tool two years ago for the Massey 35. I found them great to deal with and they have a fine catalog on line.

    Search for Nothern Tool UK.

    I saved about €400 on the advertised prices in the farm and plant was about €1200 for the same fimco sprayer.
