A pump is one of the more expensive components of a golf course or parks sprayer. It also can cause the most problems if not treated properly, although most of these can be avoided with a little attention. Here are the top five pump problems:
1. Can’t Find Parts
Be sure to buy a name-brand pump with a good warranty and availability of parts and repair kits.

Do not buy proprietary pumps or pumps that are only available from a single source.
