Knight 1835 sprayer.

[Lawless]

Anyone have or operate a Knight 1835 SP sprayer? Looking at some 2009/2010 models. Are they a decent machine. Any points that I need to watch out for if looking around one? Are they operator friendly? Are they stable?
Many thanks

We use a 2010 model only real problem we had was a pipe rubbed though the fuel tank somehow, there pretty easy to operate an i found it to be stable on some of our steeper fields

We run a 2013 model with the Claas cab and get on with it really well and would recommend it highly. Very simple to operate and maintain, very well thought out design and yes stable

@Alistair Nelson when did they introduce the Claas cab?

It was an option when we bought ours but pretty sure it’s standard now but worth the premium

Where I used to work we had a couple of Knight sprayers on veg working for prob 10 months of the year 6 days a week , on the whole they were good machines considering it was mostly bed work and lots of boom folding - changed a few things and Brian Knight then changed them onto the new machines, the cabs were good and a nice place to spend the day, had the usual issues like hydraulic pipes going and mine had to have 2 wheel motors but considering the mileage we were doing that’s understandable .
