Left wing ver Right wing ..

[furrowtickler]

True story as I work away at spraying liberty
On my ole FAST pull type sprayer , the boom height control is manual


Ya I know dusty already

The controls in the cab are kinda archaic but only one side works perfectly every time ..


The right wing is responsive works flawlessly every time I need it too
The left side whines , can be unresponsive and tries to take oil from the right wing that does not rightfully belong to it .
Funny if not true .
But together with me at the controls, the job gets done

Just change the decal around 😏

You are plumbed different than your sprayer.

The left hemisphere of your brain controls the right side of your body.

Ergo, you should not be operating a sprayer.

So if I’m standing in front looking towards you…

The right whines.

That was my Dad, always getting machine left/right mixed up. Thanks for the memory.

Not easy to find , but basically just a tank , pump and proper nozzles tied into an outback Max for sectional control and auto shut offs .

They make many different sizes

Too *** funny
Just like real life

Ergo ?

Therefore

Saw one guy drive up in a rush, park behind his unit, brain farted, backed up and can crushed his cab.

Bad idea to stand your ground, even in the front, left or right. Sprayer, or politics.

Let me know when I should not run a sprayer …


I will not show what’s going on all around here out of respect.
I will run a sprayer all day long and have for 100’s of thousands of acres without burning a neighbour out single foot, Knock on wood 🪵

[furrowtickler]

Sprayers drive themselves, lol that so cute.
The very most important pass is right beside your neighbours crop , zero gps on first pass with zero barrier, all hand eye . Ahhh farming so easy, and most everyone here does it professionally time after time
To those who have never ever done it , give it go , would be interesting. I would never try a C section on a cow 🐄 , let alone tell someone how to do it

[furrowtickler]

I find it kinda odd , I would never ever tell someone how to do accounting , that’s their profession, never in my life tell a teacher how to do their job , never tell a doctor how to do their job , ever, never tell a professional welder how to do a weld properly, never in my life a livestock producer how to raise their chickens, beef or dairy , would never enter my mind . But here on agriville is full of experts that don’t bat an eye on telling us grain farmers what we should do .. it’s beyond irrational at times .



Kids ready ..


And yes take time for family … when opportunity knocks

Have a great weekend

This may be more than just a coincidence. I also run a pull type sprayer. Flexi coil wheeled boom.
In theory, center caster wheels on each side lock into road transport automatically, and the wings tow behind parallel.
One Way randomly comes unlocked and until I read this thread, I hadn't really kept track of which one it is. As it turns out, it is always the left waiting. Waits till it's on the road, in my blind spot, somehow the spring loaded pin works its way out and the left wing smashes into the right wing, which was minding its own business, staying in its own lane. Generally gets Tangled up and locked together, trying to Hitch a free ride from the honest hard-working wing. Something inevitably breaks, almost always on the right wing not the offending wing. Everything is adjusted as it should be. Everything is the same left to right. Except the bad attitude.
And twice so far this spring I have had the left boom not latch completely when unfolding. Give it a tug test it all looks good. It hangs on just long enough for me to get lined up with the edge of the field distracted by keeping the right hand boom out of the fences, then lets go and swings around and breaks the wet booms on the right hand.
