Basic Machine
The basic machine comprises of a steel frame and a polyethylene solution tank with a nominal content of 3200 (832 model) or 4000 liters (840 model). The solution tank with a hinged lid, basket strainer, liquid level indicator, pressure agitation and internal tank rinsing system is mounted to the frame, along with a 400 liter rinse tank and a 20 liter hand wash tank.
Pump
The 800i TF series trailed sprayer has a piston diaphragm pump with a capacity of 280 liters per minute. The pump is located on the drawbar and is driven by the tractor PTO via a gearbox and by means of a PTO shaft with a double wide angle coupling (1 3/8" with 6 splines). The PTO shaft has a separate operator's manual, supplied in a plastic bag connected to the PTO shaft.
Air compressor
The machine comprises one or two air compressors dependent on the size of the spray boom (larger booms require two compressors) to deliver pressurized air to the twin-fluid air-assisted nozzles. The air compressors are driven by the tractor PTO and can be switched on and off by means of a gearbox. The gearbox and compressor(s) are located on the drawbar. Air is aspirated by the compressor via an air-filter and delivered to the air pressure regulation unit. The air pressure regulation unit comprises a relief valve, an air pressure regulator, a by-pass valve and an exhaust silencer. The pressurized air is delivered from the air pressure regulator to the air section manifold on the center of the boom. Electric boom air section valves then deliver the pressurized air to the air supply lines on the spray boom.
Suction unit
The suction unit comprises a suction valve, a suction filter, a filling hose connection and a drain valve.

Different filling hose connections are available such as camlock (quick release couplings) , Fire Service or B/C-couplings (Storz). All couplings have blind caps.
Drawbar
The drawbar is mounted to the front of the frame. With the universal drawbar, both lower and upper linkage connection to the tractor is possible. The drawbars are available as fixed or automatic trailing versions. Different kinds of drawbar tow eyes can be fitted to the drawbars (see "Drawbar Tow Eyes" in the section entitled "Coupling and Uncoupling of the Sprayer"), to connect the sprayer to the different kinds of tractor draw hooks.
Axle
The 800i TF series trailed sprayer can be equipped with different types of axles:
-
fixed axle (8-bolts) for track width 1.50/1.80 m (for 832i TF and 840i TF with a maximum speed of 25 km/h)
-
sliding axle (8-bolts) for track width 1.50-2.00 m (for 832i TF and 840i TF with a maximum speed of 25 km/h)
-
sliding axle (8-bolts) for track width 1.72-2.25 m (for 832i TF and 840i TF with a maximum speed of 25 km/h)
-
sliding axle (10-bolts) for track width 1.50-2.00 m (for 840i TF with speeds above 25 km/h)
-
sliding axle (10-bolts) for track width 1.72-2.25 m (for 840i TF with speeds above 25 km/h)
The axles have drum brakes with an internal speed sensor. Hydraulic or pneumatic brake systems are available.
The axles are fitted to the frame with a double link connection. The axles are equipped with special polyurethane dampers.
