“I needed more output for better timeliness, and the most flexible solution for my business was the iXter combination,” says Jack, pictured. “It offers good weight distribution, better stability than a trailed model on the steeper slopes, and as I already have tractors, it is far better value than a self-propelled.”
With the ability to carry 1,200 litres up front and 1,800-litres at the rear of his John Deere 6R155 tractor and work at 12m, 18m and 24m, he says the outfit is easy to hitch and remove, thanks to the use of an A-frame
“I can often put the sprayer on and off several times a week,” he says. “I face a huge variety of crops types, so it’s important that the sprayer is easy to use and very easy to clean.”
Supplied by RC Dalgliesh, Jack opted for a high specification package that includes iXclean Pro, iXspray control and iXflow-E with Boom Guide.
“As an Isobus sprayer, it is plug and play through my tractor’s extended terminal, and with the IsoMatch Grip joystick, I have full control of functionality, alongside auto section control and auto start/stop.”
Simplifying multi-tank management, the sprayer is also equipped with Twin Fill capability.
“I really like Twin Fill,” he says. “It ensures that the correct volumes of liquid in the correct concentrations for each tank, are correctly mixed, split and transferred. As a contractor, that’s very important for me, and also my customers.”
