I would suggest the option of turning off the booms separately and the ability to fold the booms upwards. Out the back will limit your turning ability when close to stuff. The reason I would suggest putting in valves to close off the booms is so if you want to mow and spray at the same time, as I do, you can. I spray every few weeks in the summer. Generally for mosquito control, but also 2-4-D for the dandelions. I think the advantages of mowing & spraying together go beyond time savings. For bug spraying, you irritate the little buggers by mowing and zappo with the spray. For weeds, you get a cut that will take it in directly. Not only that, but if you mow at the same time, you have built in markers! Good luck - I think this is a worthwhile project. I'm hoping to build a wick-type sprayer this summer. I won't have to worry about drift onto my trees as much then.

On closer examination (and some reading in a AC D-14 service manual), I found out that this is a pretty ingenious method of cleaning the air in the tractor's intake tract.
