Pull-type applicators are agricultural equipment designed to be towed behind a tractor. They are used to apply fertilizers, herbicides, pesticides, and other treatments to crops and soil. These machines are highly efficient for large-scale farming operations, ensuring even distribution of materials over extensive areas, which helps in optimizing crop yield and health.
Check the overall condition, including the frame, hoses, nozzles, and pump. Ensure there are no leaks or wear and tear that could affect performance. Review any maintenance records available.
Use a flatbed trailer and secure the applicator properly to prevent movement during transit. Ensure all moving parts are locked and protected to avoid damage.
Regularly inspect and clean nozzles and hoses, check for leaks, and ensure the pump is functioning correctly. Lubricate any moving parts and follow the manufacturer's maintenance schedule.
