The new 3TS Pro system has a pressure differential of only 1.45 bar maximum, well within the tolerance of all nozzles.... Read more
Fence line jets (if fitted) are controlled from a switch box supplied with the sprayer which is fitted in the cabin. If the controller has unused boom sections available, these can be used to control fence line jets. Read more
Large booms when yawing backwards and forwards can influence chassis stability. This can affect GPS steering causing an overreaction to corrections. Goldacres unique boom yaw suspension separates boom movement from the tanker so boom movement does not impact on directional stability. Read more
