[QUOTE="KFM, post: 6980917, member: 41672"] [FONT=Segoe UI][COLOR=rgb(29, 29, 29)]Knight Farm Machinery introduces the Trailblazer-Pro flagship trailed sprayers which includes a number of innovations, including a sprung drawbar which means the sprayer is well equipped for faster tractors, says David Main, Sales Manager: “This provides some greater forgiveness between the tractor and the sprayer which will ensure a more even ride and possibly faster travel speeds on the road. It will also protect the sprayer against some of the stresses it will be subjected to in work”. Other innovations include simplified plumbing, an air purge system, auto-clean water tank fill and a new induction hopper, simplifying machine cleaning after work, and minimise risks to both the operator and environment. Moving the pump and filters to the back of the chassis – immediately adjacent to the boom – simplifies the machine’s plumbing and reduces the pipework by several metres, which minimises the residual volume of liquid left in the system. A new air purge system enables operators to return any liquid remaining in the filling pipe to the storage tank when filling is complete. This greatly reduces wastage and spill risks particularly when working with liquid fertilizer. And at the end of spraying the system can be used to purge the boom and all pipework, so any remaining spray solution is safely discharged onto the cropped area. The range’s new mixing hopper is circular rather than rectangular, which aids more efficient mixing and cleaning. A continuous wall of water circulates around the outside of the hopper during filling and a high pressure mixing jet at the base of the hopper ensures good mixing and induction of powders. All machines feature the company’s Fluid Control Pro system, which enables operators to control filling, spraying and washing out functions, either when standing at the filling station or from the tractor cab. The ISOBUS integrated display at the filling station displays information like application rates, field size and % overlap, and uses that information to calculate the required filling volume and automatically switch off the filling at the right level, allowing the operator to concentrate on loading the chemical. The system also allows the setting of filling pauses. Many customers can attest to the time saving offered by Knight’s boom-mounted nozzle checking and cleaning system. It features a pneumatic system to clean out blocked nozzles and a ‘remote control key fob’ to enable operators to test cleaned nozzles while standing at the boom.
