With the high cost of today’s pesticides,
can you afford sloppy application?
Willmar Air Ride ™ lets you apply 1/2 ounce per acre at 12 mph.
Today’s post-emerge herbicides and insecticides are so
powerful they’re applied at almost unbelievably low
rates. Like 1/2 ounce per acre in solution. That means
you need an applicator as precise as the chemistry. And,
because timing with these new products is so critical,
you need a self-propelled applicator nimble enough to
get into fields even in the mud.
For dependable application of today’s sophisticated
pre-emerge and post-emerge chemicals, more custom
applicators and large farmers rely on Willmar Air Ride.
Here are just some of the reasons:
• Unequaled visibility, driver comfort and convenience,
• Patented Air Bag Suspension adjusts on-the-go.
• 60 ft. boom, 600 gal. tank for more acres per day.
• Articulated steering minimizes crop damage.
• Wheel tracks adjust from the cab to fit row widths.
• Low-compaction tires grip soft ground, yet won’t
crush crops.
• Adjustable boom fits various crop heights.
• Reliable John Deere engine, long-term dependability.
