The manual-folding crossover boom with twin link suspension allows the boom to float over the roughest terrain, keeping the boom level.
This is important as the quality of the spray job can be greatly affected by the boom being either too high or too low to the target. In addition, boom longevity is greatly improved because the roll stresses are absorbed by the suspension system.
Catch release handle
Spring loaded adjustable boom release handle ensures secure boom lock in open position.
Boom end
(a) 2D breakaway end tip with (b) rubber mounted stopper. (c) Stainless steel nozzle brackets position behind boom wing.
Centre boom section with Twinlink suspension
(a) The boom structure floats on twin links which are supported by greasable sealed roller bearings. The angled links provide self-levelling properties without the need for springs. (b) Rubber roll stoppers provide cushioning in the event of the boom reaching full travel. (c) A dampener connected between the mounting frame and boom limits rapid roll oscillation. (d) The connection between the suspension system and the three-point linkage is via polyurethane bushes. The bushes help maximise shock absorption. (e) Poly slide strip helps transfer yaw forces whilst still allowing the boom to roll freely
