4.4TRACTOR COUPLING

The tractor must have a 1”3/8 ASAE DIN 9611/A power-takeoff that runs at 550 rpm. It must have a 3-point elevator suitable for safely supporting the weight of the sprayer. Check this by consulting the table of allowed fittings N° 12a page 29.

WARNING: make sure there are no persons or things near the sprayer before starting the machine and while you are using it.

a)Check the diameter of the elevator coupling pins. If necessary position the double diameter pins correctly; there are also appropriate adapter bushes available.

b)If the machine is coupled to the tractor by a tow hook, adjust the height of the hook to keep the tank of the atomiser horizontal.

If the machine is coupled to the tractor by the elevator, retract the parking wheel to stop it getting damaged during work (important: the parking wheel can only support the EMPTY weight of the atomiser). Keep the towed machine level with the control of the elevator.

c)On the versions with the telescopic support of the pressure regulator, adjust it so it is easy to reach from the driver’s seat.

d)Check that the weight on the elevator can be born by the tractor (roughly 500 kg in the 2000 litre version).

e)Check that the tow bar steering joint is lubricated with grease.

f)If you need to adjust the gauge of the wheels of the towed machine, in any case make sure the blocking screws of the axle shafts and the rim bolts and any spokes of the wheel disc are tight.

To adjust the gauge, lift the towed machine as shown in point 4.3.1.

g)Check the pressure of the wheels (shown on the tyres).

4.4.3 HYDRAULIC CONNECTION TO THE DISTRIBUTORS

The machines that need a hydraulic connection to drive the herbicide booms are equipped with 1/2", “Push-Pull”, quick-fit male couplings. You can connect the pipes by simply pushing them in, making sure you:

-proceed only with the engine turned off;

-lower any tools connected to the elevator of the tractor;

-carefully clean the two parts that will be coupled

Warning: the hydraulic cylinders used are the “Double Effect” type. Consult the use and maintenance manual of the tractor.

4.5CARDAN SHAFT

In some models this is supplied on request. The cardan shaft must bear the CE mark.

It must always have its own instructions that must be followed scrupulously and it should come with a cover bearing the mark, integrated in every part. You should have previously checked the length to avoid:

=if it is too long, DANGEROUS THRUST ON THE PUMP SHAFT

=if too short, the POSSIBILITY OF DANGEROUS BREAKAGES

THE MINIMUM OVERLAP OF THE TWO TELESCOPIC TUBES MUST NEVER BE LESS THAN 1/3 OF THE LENGTH OF THE TUBES.

The power that can be transmitted by the cardan shaft must be at least equal to that required to run the sprayer. Consider that the power necessary to run a sprayer without the fan is practically the same as that of the pump, the power rating can be found in the pump instructions handbook. Generally 20 bar pumps need 20 hp; 50 bar pumps need 30 hp. These power ratings can be found in tables N° 12a page 29.

CAMPO 11 - 16 - 22 - 32, DSP 11 - 16 - 22 - 32 specifications

Unigreen DSP Series and CAMPO Series are advanced agricultural sprayers designed to meet the evolving needs of modern farming. The Unigreen DSP (Dynamic Spraying Product) models 11, 16, 22, and 32, along with the CAMPO models of the same specifications, are engineered for efficiency, precision, and reliability in crop protection.

One of the key features of the Unigreen DSP models is their innovative spraying technology. Each model is equipped with a high-capacity tank that allows for extended operation without the need for frequent refills. The DSP series incorporates adjustable booms that provide precise application across various crop types. This ensures uniform coverage and minimizes waste, making it an environmentally friendly option for farmers.

The CAMPO series also boasts similar tank capacities and boom adjustments, making them suitable for diverse agricultural applications. Both series offer customizable options, allowing farmers to choose the configuration that best fits their land and crop requirements.

Another standout characteristic of both Unigreen and CAMPO sprayers is their user-friendly interface. Equipped with advanced electronic controls, farmers can easily monitor and adjust spray rates, pressure, and other critical parameters in real time. This technology not only enhances the sprayers' operational efficiency but also aids in achieving the optimum application rates for different pesticides and fertilizers.

Furthermore, both series integrate cutting-edge GPS technology, enabling precision agriculture practices. This feature allows operators to map their fields, ensuring that every inch is accurately treated, while also reducing the possibility of overlap or missed areas. This precision application reduces chemical usage and ultimately leads to cost savings.

Durability is another primary focus in the design of the Unigreen DSP and CAMPO sprayers. Built with high-quality materials that can withstand harsh environmental conditions, these sprayers promise longevity and consistent performance over time.

In summary, Unigreen DSP and CAMPO models 11, 16, 22, and 32 are technologically advanced agricultural sprayers that combine efficiency, precision, and durability. With features such as adjustable booms, advanced electronic controls, and GPS technology, they cater to the diverse needs of today’s farmers, helping to enhance productivity while minimizing environmental impact. These sprayers are positioned to play a pivotal role in the future of sustainable agriculture.
