You could have saved $8 through Zoro but, I understand.

Ugh...I was so over the situation that I forgot about the Zoro price. Oh well.

Received chapin cf valve tonight (model 6-8501). It came with two adapters, and one of them converts the tip end to 11/16". Teejet fits nice and tight now on my chapin 62000 sprayer.

I tried the combo listed by DFW on a 2 gallon Round Up sprayer,
however, I can't get anything past the 15 psi control valve. Is it possible the Round Up sprayer doesn't generate more than 15 psi?

I suppose that's possible, but I would think it's quite likely that it generates more than 15psi, as that really isn't that much pressure.

You should be able to get 15psi if it is pressurizing. Have you tried it without the CF valve. I think DFW updated the wand parts.

DFW,

I've love to understand how the 8004VS Tee Jet nozzle works for you with a 15psi cf valve. I can only get a tiny stream with 15psi cf, and the Tee Jet chart doesn't show any psi numbers lower than 30 for this particular nozzle. w/o the CF valve I get a nice uniform spray. This combination just doesn't seem to work for me for some reason.

Interested in your advice.

Thanks.
