UF

The UF is, in a few simple steps, quickly and safely

attached to the tractor with the suffi cient space bet-

ween the tractor and sprayer making the attachment

easy.

With the parking wheels, the sprayer can be moved

easily. The quick coupler system and the Tele-Space

PTO shaft – available on request - ensure an even

faster and simpler attachment to the tractor. All cables

and hoses are arranged in a clear, functional manner

to avoid any mix ups.

Mounting and fi llingGet setup and start spraying quickly!

The 120 litre (901/1201) or 180 litre

(1501/1801) fresh water container is

situated under the main spray tank.

Simple, ground-level fi lling is made

possible by good positioning on the

right-hand side as viewed in the direc-

tion of travel. If desired, the fresh water

tank can also be fi lled via the fi ll port on

the left-hand side.

Everything is functional when in orange and greenFast and safe fi lling

Filling via the suction

hoseThe sprayer can be fi lled using the

suction hose via the 2“ suction port.

The liquid fl ow is routed in such a

way that during the fi lling procedure

there is always clean water available

at the induction bowl.

Option

Fill portFor fi lling from a pressurised hose,

a fi ll port with either a Geka or

Camlock coupling is available as

an option. Using this connection,

the fresh water can be simulta-

neously fi lled from the left hand

side.

Fill level indicator

The fi ll level indicator is readable

both externally via a mechanical

pointer and in the cab electronically

via either the AMATRON+ or the

AMASPRAY+ on-board computers.

The piston diaphragm pumps run

perfectly happily when dry and are

liquid fertiliser safe. The design of

the pumps simultaneously ensures

an even, high delivery capacity with

a high fi lling power and quiet opera-

tion even under high pressure.

Pumps with either 160, 210 and 250

l/min output capacity are available.

For a constant, functional supervi-

sion of the pump from the tractor

seat, the oil reservoir for the pump

is placed up on the headstock in

full view of the operator.

A 2“ discharge port for quick empty-

ing under pressure, for example,

transferring to a front tank, can also

be supplied (option).

AMACLICK

In order to shut off individual part-width sections in

certain applications such as bed systems when crop-

ping vegetables, the corresponding part-width sections

can be pre-selected and permanently switched off via

the AMATRON+.

If this function is required regularly, the use of

AMACLICK is recommended.

Standard functions:

- Overall and part-width section on/off

- Up to 9 part-width sections

- Digital pressure indication

- Digital fi ll level indication

- Display of boom position and lock status

- Field record management system with 20 memories

- Serial interface for documentation and GPS terminal versatility

- ISOBUS compatible

The universal AMATRON+ operator terminal is able to

control many machines from the AMAZONE product

range. On the ZA-M fertiliser spreader, in conjunction

with the Comfort electronic pack, the Limiter border

spreading device and the on/off shutter slides can be

electro-hydraulically controlled. Forward speed related

or site specifi c spread rate control is also possible.

Safe, simple documentation transfer

ASD, automatic fi eld related documentation, is a product and manu-

facturer overlapping documentation concept for the transfer of specifi c

application data between the AMATRON+ and AMASPRAY+ on-board

computers and electronic fi eld record software. The serial interface used

is in the public domain and as such, is accessible to other manufacturers.

ASD provides the farmer with the possibility of simply and economically

integrating all machines into the documentation chain.

Future proof technology

The serial interface (RS232) that enables use to be made of sensor technology

(e.g. Yara N-Sensor) or different GPS terminals is integrated, as standard, into

the comprehensive equipment level provided by AMATRON+ and AMASPRAY+.

Special functions:

Exact dosage and simple operation

AMATRON+

Control

The AMATRON+ on-board computer enables the fully

automatic control of the prescribed spray rate (l/ha).

Rate changes are possible in pre-selected %steps.

This modern on-board computer, thanks to its clear,

simple and logical operation, is especially user-friendly

and with its extra-large, low-refl ection display it moni-

tors the complete system. The very compact dimen-

sions of the computer mean little space is required in

the tractor cab.

By using two fl ow meters, the application rate is

extremely precisely maintained, especially at low

spray rates.

Multi-function

joystick

Using the multi-function

joystick makes operation

of the machine even more

comfortable. Without visual

contact, the most important

spraying functions can be con-

trolled via the ergonomically shaped

joystick. The AMATRON+ is then

used only as a monitoring and input

device. A small toggle switch allows

use of only 8 buttons to three different

levels.

When used in conjunction with AMAZONE seed drills,

the AMATRON+ is responsible for electronic tramline

control and additionally, changing the seed rates in

pre-selected steps. When using the trailed Cirrus seed

drills the comprehensive electro-hydraulic functions,

such as seed depth or intensity of the seedbed culti-

vation are also controlled via the AMATRON+.

Manually operated valve chest

The manually operated valve chest allows spraying

without any electrical power supply. The main switch,

the manual pressure adjustment and the switching on

and off of either three or fi ve boom part-width sections

are arranged in a clever, ergonomic manner.

Due to the equal pressure system the spray rate per

hectare remains constant when switching on and off

the part-width sections.

Control

AMASPRAY+ – modern and precise

The AMAZONE AMASPRAY+ on board computer is a

robust and self-explanatory spray computer enabling the

user to concentrate on driving, whilst the computer car-

ries out the control and forward speed related regulation.

Top spraying technology

For the AMATRON+ and AMASPRAY+ spray rate

computers the most modern control chest techno-

logy is available. The part-width boom sections are

switched, on and off, quickly and drip-free via elec-

tric motor valves with pressure relief.

In all situations the spray rate is exactly and quickly

controlled directly via the computer and so negating

the need for any mechanical equal pressure control.

AMASET+ – simple and safe

The AMASET+ control box is a comfortable solution for

user-friendly and environmentally friendly crop protec-

tion application. All important spraying functions being

controlled remotely from the tractor cab. Within the same

tractor gear the spray rate (l/ha) remains constant.

And thus deposits, blockages or any settling inside the spray lines is safely prevented. The concentration of the spray agent always remains constant right up to the nozzles, so starting the spraying operation, for example after a change of ingredients, is carried out without problems. During the cleaning operation clear fresh water fl ushes through the spray lines down to the nozzles without the necessity to spray. During this cleaning procedure the concentrated spray liquid is returned back to tank via the pressure re-circulation system leaving the spray lines clean.

UF liquid circuit The pressure circulation system (DUS)Ingeniously simple –

this is how DUS works

External cleaning

With the spray lance of the exterior wash down kit the

outside of the crop protection sprayer can be tho-

roughly cleaned after use whilst still in the fi eld. The

20 m hose reel supplies a working pressure of 10 bar

to enable effective cleaning with little water consump-

tion.

Internal cleaning

The standard internal tank cleaning system with rotary

nozzle ensures quick and effective washing out.

Smooth tank walls without nooks and crannies allow

safe function and simple monitoring.

The new option with three functions for all UF models

with AMATRON+

· Automatic fi ll stop for controlling, on and off, the

suction tap at the desired fi ll level.

· Automatic agitator shut off at a fi ll level of less than

5% (the nominal volume) results in small residual

volumes.

· Cleaning the spray line, tank and agitator is possible

via the AMATRON+.

No need for the operator to leave the tractor cab.

The liquid circuit of the UF series has been optimised

for operator friendliness and lowest residual sprayer

volumes.

DUS

The fl ow of spray agent is routed from the pressure regulator to the pressure relief valve and fl ows on at low pressure to the throttle valve. The spray agent then fl ows in the reverse direction back to the tank.

Before commencing work, all the hoses including the spray lines are fl ooded under pressure with spray agent in the reverse direction. Thus the spray lines are always fi lled over the entire working width and thus instantly ready for use. No waiting at the headlands for the spray agent to reach the boom ends.Every time an Individual part-width section is switched off, during each turn and during transport, the spray liquid circulates continually. This is done via the AMAZONE pressure controller, which guarantees a reliable circulation.

Compactness matters!

Due to the low centre of gravity and the light and ro-

bust design of the machine it is easy to carry and the

tractor front axle weight reduction is much less than

with many competitors.

Drive safely!

The visibility in road transport is exemplary. Wherever

the tractor can pass through, the boom also can go

through with no protruding parts, no boom damage

that is all down to the minimal transport dimensions.

Long service life

Use of stainless steel, the catalytic painting process,

with its automobile industry protection standards, as

well as the targeted use of plastics and aluminium is

the guarantee for high longevity.

Exclusively from AMAZONE: All hydraulic connectors

are always made from stainless steel!

3-fold shock absorbed suspension for

most arduous operational conditions

In hilly terrain and with large working widths hydraulic

tilt adjustment makes sense. The quick and precise

tilting and return of the boom into the neutral position

is possible via a tractor control valve or the electro-

hydraulic function via AMATRON+.

Aircraft style boom design

AMAZONE booms –

an idea gains acceptance

The most important quality features

Booms

Both Q-plus and the Super-S series AMAZONE booms

are BBA recognised and comply to the highest

European demands on crop protection implements –

compare that with the others!

Everything shipshape!

The boom locates safely in the transport hooks. No

rattling and banging whilst on the road and no boom

rests susceptible to wear fi tted to the tractor. Fast

travel A to B is no problem.

Clean working!

No spray agent from the booms drips on to the tractor

or on the operator station and the booms also do not

hit the tractor cab.

Maintenance-free

The decades of experience in boom design pay off:

The conical hinge pin is the intelligent centre of a well

thought-out boom philosophy! The boom pivots self-

adjust against any play on the conical hinge pins and

that ensures for the user an optimised boom function

even after many years.

AMAZONE booms are designed to be simultaneously

superbly strong yet superbly light. The nozzle bodies

with integrated diaphragm non-return anti-drip valves

fi t up into the boom profi les reliably preventing any

dripping at the nozzle. Self-adjusting bayonet caps

ensure a quick, tool-less nozzle change. For any ope-

rational use and any application rate the right nozzles

are available, for example, for the optimum wetting,

anti-drift or for liquid fertiliser use.

As standard all AMAZONE booms are equipped with

1. springs and shock absorber pack for damping the

vertical roll movements,

2. rubber buffer damping elements with ball suspen-

sion to damp down the horizontal yaw movements

3. tension springs for the shock absorbed suspension

of the entire boom.

As standard also is hydraulic height adjustment and

guide skids that results in the perfect boom guidance

and thus, the accurate longitudinal and lateral distri-

bution of the spray agent.

The hydraulic folding is done via oversized hydraulic

rams. Included as standard: Hydraulic height adjust-

ment, 3-fold shock absorbing suspension system and

the one sided, independent folding on the left hand

side as viewed in direction of travel. 80 mm wide pro-

fi les provide excellent rigidity.

The Q-plus boom can immediately be folded out

at half height. Folding in is possible at any desired

height. Two control valves are required:

- One single acting control valve for height

adjustment

- One double acting valve for folding in/out

- One double acting control valve for hydraulic

tilt adjustment (option)

As an option the Q-plus boom can be equipped with

pre-select folding for the independent folding left or

right hand side. The pre-selection of these hydraulic

functions is carried out electrically via AMASET+,

AMASPRAY+ or AMATRON+.

From the boom being folded fully out – after pre-se-

lection – only this one side is then folded in again.

standard tractor. The multiple-folded steel profi les of

up to 140 mm wide make the Super-S boom extremely

robust. The 3-fold shock absorbing boom suspension

system, the hydraulic height adjustment and the

elastic height skids ensure the perfect guidance of the

Super-S boom with the right distance above the target

Carin Handriek regarding the Super-S boom: (Agricultural Centre of Hörsteltal, registered association, 99880 Mechterstädt)

„We are pleased with the output of our record-beating sprayer. Even after 110,000 hectares the joints and the entire boom technology are not suffering in any way from fatigue.“ Profi -fold

Profi -fold is the electro-hydraulic actuation of the boom via an oil circuit from which the functions of height ad-justment, folding out and in, independent fold, boom width reduction and tilt adjustment (Profi -fold I) are easily actuated via AMATRON+ or the joystick. Additional boom tip angling is possible via Profi -fold II.

The sprayer specialist advises......less drift, even at higher wind speeds

End and boundary nozzles

Liquid fertilising –

Safe and user friendly

For the coarse droplets distribution of liquid fertiliser

AMAZONE offers multi-hole nozzles (3, 5, or 7 hole) or

the FD slit nozzles.

Nozzles

With the air assisted Injector nozzles crop protection agents

can be applied with very low drift. They are universally usable

in all crops and all situations. Because of the coarse droplet

size, these nozzles can also be used at greater wind speeds.

AMAZONE offers for agricultural applications a wide range of

nozzles from Lechler, Agrotop and Teejet.

Nozzle protection tubes, standard on the outer sections or on

request over the entire boom width, protect the long injector

nozzles and multi-nozzle bodies .

Single and multi-nozzle bodies

The nozzle bodies, safely located in the boom profi le fra-

mes, have integrated diaphragm non return valves to prevent

dripping of the nozzles. Self-adjusting bayonet fi xings ensure

a tool-less quick nozzle change. The triple or quad nozzle bo-

dies are better suited for frequent nozzle changes or varying

applications and crops.

End nozzles

End nozzle control switches off, independent from the normal boom part-width section valves, two or three nozzles to enable an un-sprayed buffer zone to be left at the boom end. AMASPRAY+ and AMATRON+ spray computers automatically keep the application rate (l/ha)

constant.

In conjunction with the Super-S

boom a separate drag hose

unit is available. The self-con-

tained aluminium profi les can

be attached with a few hand

clamps.

Drag hoses offer a risk-free late

top dressing with liquid fertili-

ser and stainless steel weights

help keep the position of the drag hoses within the crop.

Boundary nozzles

The boundary nozzle control provides the accurate adherence to the fi eld‘s border. When actuating the boundary nozzle control the last normal nozzle is switched over to a special boundary nozzle which, via an asymmetrical spray angle nozzle, facilitates a con-ventional spray pattern in the fi eld but limits the outer spray pattern to within the normal working width thus preventing potential over-spray outside the confi nes of the fi eld.

The special advantages offered of more manoeuvrable

tractors with a mounted implement compared with

trailed sprayers in smaller and more awkward shaped

fi elds as well as the better behaviour on slopes are

the major arguments for the front tank solution.

However, even in the 3, 000 litre self-propelled class a

comfortable tractor in combination with a high-class

mounted sprayer and front tank is an interesting alter-

native.

UF

The specifi c feature of the FT 1001 is the 100% inte-

gration of the front tank into the mounted sprayer via

the Flow-Control electronic fi ll level management

system in the proven AMATRON+. The technolo-

gical basis of Flow-Control is the two electronic fi ll

level indicators in the tanks and the two high capacity

injectors. The transfer capacity in both directions is

up to 200 l/min ensuring the liquid is always ideally

homogenised.

AMATRON+ automatically controls the liquid circuit,

ensuring always, an optimised weight distribution.

Premature relief of the weight on the front axle is pre-

vented and, depending on the fi ll level, new liquid is

delivered from the front tank early enough so that the

mounted sprayer is never emptied prior to the front

tank and the liquid always remains homogeneous.

Manual control also allows the transport of just fresh

water in the front tank.

No matter whether in the yard or in the barn: there is

always a safe parking place for the compact combina-

tion on its parking rollers. This simple handling convin-

ces even after just a few operations.

The internal cleaning of the sprayer combination is

carried out via the fresh water tank of the UF. The 100l

additional clean water tank allows for the appropriate

cleaning according to the European guide lines (clean

water supply at least 10 % of the tank volume)

The compact sprayer-tractor unit is favourable espe-

cially in narrow lanes with hardly any obstruction to the

view thanks to the well thought out design.

The AMAZONE FT 1001 fulfi ls all relevant EC guide

lines and standards for traffi c safety.

The optional traffi c light kit is necessary in cases where
