INSTALLATION

When installing the sprayer on your Walker tractor, 

select a smooth, flat surface such as a driveway, 

sidewalk, garage floor, etc. to mount the sprayer to 

the deck’s carrier frame.  

1. 

Initial Installation Only: 

Install the Harness/

Battery Connector (P/N B005) to the tractor’s 

battery. The red wire connects to the positive 

terminal and the black wire to the negative. 

2.  Install the sprayer on the deck.  Leave one 

locking pin in either the RH or LH Support Tube 

Assembly.  Hook the Rear Support Bracket of 

the boom sprayer under the front of the deck 

carrier frame.  Slide the unlocked Support Tube 

Assembly out to the deck carrier frame arm 

and lock with the locking pin as shown in the 

Install Boom Sprayer on Deck

 photo.  If pin is 

tight, gently tap into place with a hammer.

3.  Connect the Wire Harness (P/N B004) to the 

Pump (P/N B003).  

4. 

Initial Installation Only:

 Route the Wire Har-

ness where it won’t be cut or pinched by a 

moving part.  It is recommended to secure the 

harness with zip ties at several locations to 

protect it. 

 

For the DS60: 

Install the 30” Wire Harness Ext 

(P/N B005-1, sold separately) in line with the 

Wire Harness as an extension to reach the 

Harness/Battery Connector.

Battery Connector.

Connect Wire Harness

6.  Test the sprayer by putting about 5 gallons of 

water in the tank. Operate the unit and check 

the boom’s spray pattern for coverage and 

overlap of spray.  

 

NOTE:

  Release the air pressure in the spray 

wand to initiate the check valves in the spray 

boom by opening the spray wand valve (P/N 

B017) until spray material flows from the wand.   

 

The base of the spray tips should be about 17” 

from the ground for a good spray pattern. Also 

check to see that the spray tips are installed 

correctly so the spray pattern is parallel to the 

spray boom.
