PRODUCT FEATURES / FAMILIARISATION
CHASSIS, AXLE, WHEEL & TYRES
Chassis
Hot-dipped galvanised full-length heavy-duty chassis with
optional axle types, adjustable drawbar, slide-out step
(N/A for the 5000) & jockey stand.
Drawbar
The adjustable drawbar is supplied at its longest length. If
required, it can be shortened by 2 holes (110mm spacing
between each).
Jockey stand(s)
All Cropliners come fitted with an extendable Jockey Stand
suitable for (tank empty) storage of the sprayer.
Upper right photo shows the jockey stand in the stowed
position – it’s recommended to remove from the sprayer
when spraying.
Step / Platform access
The step, as pictured is in the stowed position.
For access to the tank lids and fill Camlock (2000 model)
etc, the step must be moved and secured into the extended
position.
For the 4000 and 5000 models, the lids are in a very
difficult position to access via a step.
For these models, and for access to any other parts of a
sprayer not readily accessed from the ground, the operator
should use an appropriate platform step.
Such steps are commercially available from specialty
suppliers. Larger purpose-built platforms are synonymous
with well set-up sprayer filling stations.
Access to the top of a spray tank is best effected by using a
purpose built platform.
