Horsch Leeb Lt trailed

[Eddy6170]

Anyone on here got any experience with these sprayers once they get a few years on the clock? ie electrics etc. How do you get on with the sprayer? Thinking of buying a second hand one. Would need some 620 x 70 x 42 wheels if anyone got some if I did buy it. We run a knights 6000l eua trailed ATM which don't seem to be worth anything now I want to sell it........ and its in very good condition.

we have a big spec 6000lt 36m that’s 4 or maybe 5 season old now

it’s still as good as new frankly, it’s not been totally trouble free with a few sensor failures and more recently an electronic valve failure but nothing that’s ever lost us much time or cost silly amounts to sort

very happy with it and see no reason why it wouldn’t do at least another 5 yrs here

boom still amazes me, unbelievably good and best i’ve seen work by a country mile

My thoughts on them are you aren't going to buy one unless covering large acreage. Your going to run it till it's almost done then trade it in. So most will be pretty worn out

Unless you can find one at a farm sale most be trouble I imagine.

To be fair the one I'm going to look at has done very little work, as they are changing to wider tramlines apparently.
But I do get where you are coming from as they are not a cheap machine, but what is now a days.

On our 6/7th season with a 4000Lt 28m, 14x2m auto shut offs, auto height, had a couple of sensor problems but not to the point of it stopping us spraying, replaced a 13yr old knight 3000L eu 24m which was still ok (still going with member on here afaik) but wanted to update to higher tech machine, the lads at horsch are spot on

Bought 5 year old 4lt machine last year to replace knight 3000 24mt. Much better sprayer than previous and output increased as faster travel, faster fill and boom stability and auto shut off fantastic. A couple of sensor issues - soon fixed.

At least we know it isn't worth anything

Yes, no need to start a thread asking about value.

I using one 3 or 4 years old can be quite high tech but well built very usable machine
