Board Bolted On Front Of Deere ZTrak Mower
I used 3/8-in. all-thread rods to bolt a 1 by 2-ft. board on front of my Deere ZTrak mower and mounted a 16-gal. spray tank on top of it. It lets me use a wand to spray insecticide on my pecan trees right from the mower seat, which is a lot easier than walking around with a backpack sprayer. A pair of bolt-on metal brackets, one at each end of the board, help support the tank’s weight.
    A pair of rubber straps with S hooks are used to attach the tank to holes drilled into the board. The tank’s pump is wired to the mower’s battery and can develop up to 3,000 psi, allowing spray to shoot out up to 24 ft. and cover the entire tree.
