Earthway 2170 Sprayer

Post by LouisvilleGrubber » February 24th, 2017, 8:23 am

Was it here that I read something about the 2170 having a mod that turned it into a sprayer? A quick Google didn't turn up anything. Maybe I was dreaming.

Lol. well, I had seen that. :shock: A beauty for sure, but probably not going to happen.

But I was thinking there might be something made by Earthway. I spent some more time searching their site and I think I'm out of luck.

Earthway has the S15 or S25 sprayers but nothing that converts the 2170 into a sprayer.

Yea, Geez, $500+ for a sprayer? I've been known to over do it, but I think I'll continue to hoist the backpack sprayer onto my hefty frame until I find a more economical alternative.

^ How about a battery-powered backpack strapped to a 2170? Sounds like an easy mod.

I have the Earthway S25 6 Gallon push sprayer and really like it. It is a little pricey but you can usually find one cheaper somewhere. I lucked out and found an open box on eBay for less than half of what they cost new. They also have a lower model I think called the S15 which isn't much different.

I usually only use it for biofungicide apps though so I do plan on buying the battery powered backpack sprayer sometime soon to spot spray weeds.
