I presume you got it? Anyway, they are dead basic, brittle plastic and worn boom pivots, pump seals are dead easy, the nozzles clog and wear but are pennies, the frames crack but are easy to weld, and the pipes get hard and need renewing. Nothing to them, they are a glorified knapsack and are easy to keep going- good sprayer for a small farm as there is feck all complexity. If the seals go in the valves, they are easy also.

Same story but I probably wouldn't buy it.:) Just saying, like. Price up a new one or somthing fresher. Probably be ok, but I hate seeing them apart like that-makes me wonder. New are not huge money...
