Secondary control switch functions are grouped on the console just above the operator's head. Windshield wipers, work lights and rotary beacon are controlled here. For night work a lighting package controlled from this console |
Operator Environment
An air-ride fully adjustable seat provides exceptional operator comfort for those rough field conditions. The joystick hydrostatic control and SprayCenter are attached to and move in unison with the driver’s seat. The HC 9500 and engine management displays are ideally located. The SprayCenter switching is logically placed and grouped for easy fingertip operation.
It is illuminated for night use. The Steering column pivots in two places and extends to provide adjustment for most comfortable driving position. Turning signals, driving lights, high/low beam and hazard light selection are here. In-cab storage is included in the arm rest console, drawer under the seat and pocket behind the seat for the operators manual. Auxiliary12-volt power socket is standard. |
Fluid System
|
Mixing, filling and transfer
A work zone cover supported by a gas strut protects the fluid system and provides operator protection when the boom is folded and standing under the nozzles. A fast fill coupling and ball valve is lowered to enable easy hose connection.
The main and flush tank drain valves double as fill valves and can be used when batch loading and water-filling is done simultaneously. The cyclone delivery filter is set to self clean or can be manually purged. A locker is used to store chemical handling safety equipment and a 8 gal. clean water tank provides ample water for personal hygiene |
TurboFiller
Lowering the TurboFiller into the operating position is made easy with a spring-loaded drop down bracket that automatically locks for transport. The turbo deflector in the bottom of the TurboFiller, creates a powerful liquid rotation and a rinse nozzle is accessible to clean out containers |
DynamicFluid4 fluid system
The SARITOR DynamicFluid4 fluid system is driven by a high performance HARDI 650 Wet seal run-dry centrifugal pump, which can achieves 15 to 30 gpm. rate change in 1.5 seconds. The SARITOR fluid system delivers the target rate without lag whether sections are switched on or off, changing speed or turning in or out of headlands. Advanced fluid dynamics and rate control processes are employed to deliver fast response and accurate target rate application.Pressure, flow, pump speed, forward speed, boom sections and application rate is monitored and processed using advanced computations. The DynamicFluid4 processor analysis the spraying data 20 times a seconds and provides preemptive rate control capability, altering the pump speed with pin-point precision.The proportional hydraulics used to control the pump speed are highly accurate, smooth but incredibly fast. |
The main and rinse tank
The main and rinse tanks are fully integrated keeping the center of weight as low and as far forward of the rear axle as possible. The 70 gal. rinse tank is positioned just behind the cab and under the front of the main tank.The rinse nozzles easily reach all surfaces of the tank for rinsing between fills |
Centralized work zone
The work zone console provides switching for electric motor drive valves that control main or rinse tank Venturi, pump on/off, tank rinse nozzles, boom nozzle, engine rpm and agitation. A LED identifies which valve is in operation. A 60S hand gun run by a flowjet pump connected to the rinse tank is used to clean up around the work zone |
Chassis, Engine & Power train
|
Hydrostatic Drive & Cruise
A fully integrated Sauer-Danfoss hydrostatic 4WD transmission, powered by a Cummins QSB 6.7L 275hp engine is capable of 33 mph.
The Cummins engine is designed to deliver reliability where high performance is essential.The 4WD hydrostatic No-Spin Sauer-Danfoss technology optimizes performance providing speed, torque and progressive acceleration.Combined they deliver maximum fuel efficiency.
Forward speed, reverse and braking is controlled by pushing forward or pulling back on the Joystick. Internal wet discs provide ultimate braking.
Speed and power bias can be selected manually with the rotary switch and engine revs.When cruise control is selected, power and bias to maintain the operating speed is automatically managed. |
Chassis
The C-section bolted chassis is designed to flex and provide maximum movement when driving over contours and trail drains. |
Suspension
The trailing link arm suspension system with ride level air-bags and hydraulic shock absorbers delivers robust reliability smooth boom ride, performance and operator comfort |
Ride, clearance & track width
The front and rear suspension each consist of four heavy duty link arms and one panard rod to provide a trailing suspension system which offers natural movement over rough conditions.
The under chassis crop clearance is 48" (4000) & 54" (5000) and the track width is hydraulically adjusted from 120" to 160". The wide track setting provides an exceptionally stable platform enhancing boom ride and performance.
Mudguards and mud flaps are standard and follow the wheel when steering or adjusting the track width.
Each wheel axle can be hydraulically adjusted independent of the others providing for the opportunity to run the front and rear at different track widths if required. |
Boom
|
TERRA FORCE Boom
Built strong utilizing heavy duty three dimensional truss construction for high performance and is available in sizes 88, 90, 100, 120 and 132 feet. TERRA FORCE truss boom design is able to withstand incredible yaw forces created during corning, accelerating, braking and auto steering. These forces are absorbed through a hydraulic dampened parallelogram suspension system. With on-the-go stability control the dynamic boom centre can be set from the cab to suit the operating condition.
When the boom is open the wing locks provide a positive locking mechanism ensuring the wings perform as one. The TerraForce boom is designed to reduce turbulence over and around the nozzle. A continuous mounting rail provides an infinitely variable nozzle position and easily accomodates 20" nozzle spacing. Optional Boom Prime allows the boom to be primed with chemical before spraying is started or flushed. |
Larger boom line fluid system
Fluid system with T25 -1 inch boom lines provides a 30% increase in capacity over other booms, minimizing pressure loss between sections. Easy to flush and clean saddles with slotted internal spigot ensures boom tubes drain reducing residue. |
Wide paralift
The boom is supported by a wide Paralift which enhances stability and is hydraulically dampened for smooth ride and performance. Individual wing tilt is standard and they incorporate shock absorber elements to provide individual wing suspension. |
AutoTerrain
TerraForce with AutoTerrain sets new standards in wide boom performance. AutoTerrain maintains a lower boom height and provide better drift control. AutoTerrain maintains the set boom height following the ground like a magnet regardless of the terrain it traverses. AutoTerrain is a pre-emptive stability and auto height control system that deals with the cause of boom movement. AutoTerrain seamlessly monitors roll through the center and the height of the boom off the ground 10 times every second. When change is detected AutoTerrain simultaneously corrects the boom's position relative to the ground contour by angling it the through the center pendulum.
AutoTerrain helps to spray more safely, protecting the boom from ground strikes, and preventing incorrect spray height while increasing productivity through wide boom performance. |
