Like power steering :thumbs:

A little light in the front when tank is full, just have to be carful when going uphill forward or sideways on incline.

I have sprayed hundreds of gallons but with throttle set at just above idle, there is little chance of a front end lift.

Been CAREFUL and LUCKY so far. :thumbs:

I would suggest that you make a strong framework for support, since there is a lot of weight hanging off the back.

My framework serves two purposes. My rear fenders were cracking so I removed the assembly and made a support frame for the fender assembly to rest on. I used 1/8 x 1 1/2 angle iron with a section across the back to hold the sprayer frame. I then supported the frame to the hitch.
