ABSTRACT:
A water applicator unit according to the teachings of the present invention is shown as including a cylindrical mixing tank fixed to a parallel pair of support tubes which extend above the top as handles and below the tank as legs leading to a pair of wheels. A water pipe attachable to a garden hose at the top, extends under the mixing tank to a spreader tube between the wheels at the bottom. A spreader plate held on the support tube and the spreader tube bends a lower end in spaced relation down over the spreader tube to part the grass as the water drops through holes in the spreader tube directly to the roots of the grass. Carried on cleats on the top of the spreader plate is a short hose and sprayer used to water shrubs and leads from the water pipe through a shut-off valve. The mixing tank also connects to the water pipe from a T-joint through a control valve in the lower end and is used when a fertilizer application is needed. The mixture in the mixing tank flows one way out of a ball valve at the middle of the tank back into the water pipe with a portion flowing back into the mixing tank at the lower control valve. A second set of wheels, adjustable and retractable, support the unit in an incline position.
