Q. How do I connect the Xterminator™ to my quad?
A. If you choose the Xterminator™ complete with tank, you can mount the tank on the rear rack of your quad or onto the Xterminator™ frame. You need to connect the tank wiring kit to the battery under the seat, using the ring terminals provided. The Xterminator™ comes with a tow hitch to fit on the rear 50mm tow ball on your quad.
Q. Can I use the Xterminator™ behind a tractor?
A. Yes, it has an adjustable tow hitch making it suitable to be towed behind a range of vehicles, including a tractor or jeep/4x4. If the vechicle has a standard 50mm ball hitch it will be suitable to pull the Xterminator™. If you are using a tractor or jeep/4x4 to tow the weed wiper you should attach the tank directly onto the weed licker.
Q. What is the overall width and contact width of the Xterminator™?
A. The overall width is 2.4m/8ft. The contact width is 2.16 m
Q. Can I use my existing tank with the Xterminator™?
A. Yes, if it is equipped with a high capacity pump you should be able to use it with the Xterminator™. We would recommend that it would be a 60 psi pump which has an approx. 6.8Lt per min flow. However you would need to purchase an additional wiring kit to allow you to activate the necesary chemical application.We also recommend that you purchase a dump valve required to regulate the pressue when wiping in dense material.
Q. Can I use the 100L tank for spot spraying?
A. If you wish to use the 100L tank for spot spraying you would need to purchase the optional handlance kit. When the tank is disconnected from the weed wiper, the handlance kit will allow you to use your tank for spot spraying in hard to reach areas or even around the yard.
Q. Will the Xterminator™ save me chemical in comparison to boom spraying?
A. Yes, since chemical is applied only to the weeds and not to the entire area. The contra rotating absorbant rollers lift the weed up so that chemical is applied to the underside of the leaf where it is sensitive to the chemical, rather than on the waxy surface. Chemical can act fast to give quicker weed kill rates.
Q. How will using the Xterminator™ in place of boom spraying improve my grass yields?
A. The Xterminator™ is designed to apply chemical only to the weeds and not the grass and so grass growth is not stunted. Boom spraying applies chemical to the grass as well as the weeds which can slow down growth rates for a time.
Q. Can I use the Xterminator™ for all my weed control?
A. The Xterminator™ is suitable for weed control in areas where the weeds are taller than the grass. The weed wiper must be set to the correct height to ensure it is above the height of the grass. If you have a few awkward areas which you cannot access with the weed licker e.g along fences/hedges, the optional handlance kit would allow you to use the tank to spot spray with the handlance.
