Which mounted sprayer

[Chae1]

What spec you getting @Chae1 2 x 1900lts?

Yep. That and Bigger capacity pump for liquid fert. 2" fast fill port on side. Rest is fairly standard arag 400s controller with 7 section auto shut off. My current sprayer is 2k litre 24m. 24 years old and doesn't even have a rate controller. So will be a big step up for me.

You'll love auto shut off and rate controller.

Did you get auto boom height control?

I didn't, was advised it would be same price fitting it later. If I wanted it.

Yes it was starting to get a bit eye watering in the end, there's a lot to work out, especially doing it through a Trimble interface. Getting good support from the dealer though.

Have you thought about Berthoud? I had one and thought it was a brilliant machine. Pressure based system and very accurate rate controller, preferred it to my current RDS 34i.

Ours take 1 minute 20 seconds.

Only just had chance to time my 24m to fold, 25 seconds, that’s running on constant pumping hydraulics at 40% flow. That’s just to fold the booms, not including lifting out of or dropping in to cradles, which I wouldn’t bother with to nip round a pole or through a hedge to adjacent field

 

[snipe]

Is that including the vertical fold too? when it fold vertical do both boom go up at the same time?

Yes including the vertical fold, if I’m on level ground then they are within a second of each other, on a slope then 1 side does end up a bit slower

Just got prices for an Amazone 34k and a landquip 36k

Back tank only?

Not much in it.

Amazone they quoted me must have been very high spec. It was 63.5k with front tank.

But a stock machine. I never bothered building one to my specification.

Lemken any good?

Don't think they are making them any more,think a lot of mounted ones frames were breaking up,think I would stick with Amazone
