Does anyone know what the Micron size of the sprayer head and fliter are? A removabel filter and 40 micron nosel would be great. Organics clog most.

The sprayer nozzle is [Adjustable cone and fan nozzles included]. The adjustable nozzle, wide open, sprays a cone shape. Closed up sprays a stream about as thick as a wire clothes hanger. The fan nozzle opening is a rectangle about as large as a square toothpick. The filter is a [4-inch large removable plastic strainer cup] under the red fill cap on the right side of the tank as seen in the picture. You could put a filter in the filter if you want. Such as panty hose or a paper coffee filter. The only filtering is done when filling the tank. There are no sizing specs in the included, Use and Care Manual because it is adjustable as advertised.

As a casual observation the micron size seems dependent on how closed the nozzle is and the pumped pressure. With a lot of pumping is produces almost what I would call a mist.

I have a canister pump/filter with an in-line UV sterilizer and use peat in a filter bag to keep the granules out of the impeller and sterilizer housing, no issues since I've started using it(about 6 months). As long as you use a medium bag you should have no problems. Just for reference the granule sizes are ~2-7mm in diameter

I would strongly recommend you contact Graco. Ommissions from operations and maintenance manuals do not help you or your warranty. More than once a substitution as you're suggesting has made it's way into future versions of manuals ... after confirmation by the manufacturer, of course. WD-40 is a fishoil based product. While it might not harm the sprayer, you may have difficulty with contamination afterward. Again ... I'd consult Graco.

Always use the recommended organic particle mask when using any spray chemical. You can't see what can do you harm.

I contacted them directly and this is their info:Ragan and Massey, Inc.100 Ponchatoula ParkwayPonchatoula, LA 70454(985) 386-6042The representative said that it's not recommended since it's not labeled for it. And spraying it from a handheld sprayer is more accurate as to not kill anything that you want to keep. She said to use about 6 tablespoons or 3 oz per gallon as a measurement for the hose end sprayer if that's what you want.

I used to get the smallest ones, but I got so tired of always having to re-order and fiddle with them. now I use a regular filter gauge that attaches in the middle of the hose. its like less than $5 or so, but no more changeing filters and it lasts.

Do a search on eBay for "universal spray gun filter" or some similar term. Should find what your looking for.

I have 20 nozzles spaced about 5-6 feet apart, and all are over or near my flower beds and lawn. they've been on for 3 hours with minimal puddles. you have 40 nozzles for 40 feet? ya, might be a bit much unless it's over your garden. 10 should do it. on still days, we have a $15 stand fan moving air and we eat outside up to 5 times a week. it gets 100 plus here. works fine. get the orbit universal cleaner and soak the nozzles for a couple days then blow them out through the holes once a year. I use the canned air. flush the lines as well.

Hi! Being 1.25" was one of the reasons why I went with Fleck. Works great (10 months since it was installed). The filter could be a bottleneck....Have a nice day!

I so sorry to be slow in responding. As soon as I received your message, I called my plumber because I wanted to ask which specific part he purchased form Home Depot to close off the sprayer. But he is sick and hasn't returned my call. Anyway, to answer your question, I have one hole for my faucet and discarded the sprayer. It works great.

Powerfit AP31076 filter will certainly keep your hose sprayer from clogging. I use same filter on a rain barrel system which has fine particles and the filter has stopped my sprayer system from clogging. I have never had a problem since installing this filter.

Do a google search , I have found out they come in carbon block cyl. and 2 1-2 x 10 long , the centers about 1 in You may note the flow rate of each filter. I use my filters in tandem so its rough and then a fine. Go to Lowes or Home depot and you can compare. Note the WHKF-DWHV is 3/4 npt inlets. You may want to put a T in and run them in tandom main feeds the T and two filers at the same time ---======---- parrell NOT series Higher flow rate

I had to do some adapting to get it to fit on my 25 ft indoor coiled hose. I'm afraid I can't tell you about your sprayer. It appeared to be a 3/8" stem and matched my hose exactly. I took my Dremel with a cone shaped stone and enlarged the inside diameter of the hose until it fit snuggly. Good Luck!

I used diesel! I would recommend a very fine nozzle on your sprayer with a filter.

Get rid of bugs , depends on the size of the filter. I use 20 mic .then a 0.05 taste good. Once ate a fly while drinking a glass of water does that count. Note it taste like nothing, with a 0.05 fliter , I also uses them for a final rinse on my cars have 10 of them.

I use 75 micron as a final strainer, but I start with a 200 or 400 depending on how much junk is in it. If there isn't a lot of stuff floating in it, 75 is fine, otherwise it clogs up. If your only filtering one gallon, though, I would use rubber bands to hold a coffee filter in a funnel, and just pour in a little at a time. Getting the oil warm(not hot) helps, too.

It depends on the filtration level you are looking for. The smaller the micron number the cleaner the water will be. The tradeoff is if your water has more sediment then the filter will clog up faster. Or if you only need to remove sediment then perhaps the larger micron filter will do. I use a 1 micron filter since I want to remove as much as possible.
