Why The Earthway 8 Gallon Push Sprayer Is Worth The Investment
This isn't just a sprayer, it's built with an 8-gallon tank and a regulated 100 psi pump, giving homeowners and small property managers significantly more capacity and consistent pressure than a backpack sprayer, without needing a mower or ATV to tow a larger unit.
The 90309 specifically addresses the needs of homeowners and property managers who need to cover more ground than a backpack sprayer allows, while avoiding the strain of carrying tank weight on their back for the duration of the job.
More Capacity, Less Strain On Your Back. By pushing the sprayer on 13 in. pneumatic tires instead of wearing an 8-gallon tank as a backpack, this sprayer eliminates the fatigue that comes with carrying 75-100 lbs. of liquid material directly on the operator's shoulders.
Built For Customizable, Consistent Spraying
The removable boom attachment lets you customize your spray pattern to best fit different tasks around the property
Pumps at a rate of 1.3 gallons per minute at a regulated 100 psi setting for consistent application
The 9.5 ft. hose generates a spray pattern of 20 ft., making quick work of outdoor spraying needs
Engineered For Comfortable, Stable Operation
The adjustable handle fits users of all heights, making the sprayer comfortable for different operators
13 in. pneumatic tires provide stability and balance while gliding across varied terrain
Runs on a 12V to 20V battery, compatible with batteries many users may already own from other tools
Real Savings
Eliminating backpack-style carrying reduces operator fatigue on larger spraying jobs
The regulated 100 psi pump delivers consistent application, reducing wasted product from inconsistent pressure
Compatibility with widely available 12V-20V batteries avoids the cost of a proprietary battery system
Free shipping and no sales tax through Summit Forge Supply keeps the total cost down compared to buying elsewhere and paying tax and freight separately
The Bottom Line Homeowners and property managers who need to cover more ground than a backpack sprayer allows can't afford the fatigue of carrying tank weight directly on their back for an entire job. The Earthway 8 Gallon Push Sprayer is built with a regulated 100 psi pump, a customizable boom attachment, and stable pneumatic tires, so it delivers consistent, comfortable spraying across mid-size properties. For anyone spraying fertilizer, herbicide, or pest control products as a regular part of property maintenance, this is the sprayer built to cover more ground with less strain.
