Spray Boom

Exceptional boom strength, unmatched versatility.

An boom brings new levels of strength, stability, and accuracy to every spraying job. A special cross structure minimizes torsion and stress, resulting in high reliability and long life.

Double Folding Boom
Double Folding Boom

  • This double folding boom is available in widths from 15 to 24m, but folds to less than 2.55 m for transport.
  • All swivel points of the boom have self-adjusting ball-and-socket bearings to ensure dependability and long life.

Boom Suspension
Boom Suspension
  • Rough fields and slopes can have a major impact on spray accuracy.
  • That's why the new John Deere design offers an outstanding three-way boom suspension; a central pendulum system with shock absorbers; an anti-yaw system with polyurethane dampers; and vertical shock absorption with the hydro-pneumatic suspension of the parallelogram.
  • Electric boom tilt adjusts the boom's position on slopes, keeping the boom parallel with the field while allowing full pendulum action. The boom tilt can be controlled with a rotary switch (optional for EL-4 Controller, standard with ELC-1 and EHC-2 Controllers).

Exceptional Boom Strength, Reliability and Versatility.
Spray Lines
  • High-quality, stainless steel spray lines offer years of dependable, trouble-free service.
  • The spray-lines are completely protected along the entire boom length (right).
  • End plugs and supply hoses are fitted with quick-connect couplings.
  • Rinsing the sprayer or fitting a second spray-line with droplet hoses is simple and fast.

Independent Booms
  • As a further enhancement, variable geometry is available. You can raise and lower the booms independently of each other to spray sloping fields.
  • Breakaway protection works in three directions. It allows the boom ends to fold forward, backward, or upwards if an obstacle is encountered.

Adaptability
Nozzle Bodies
  • Adapt your John Deere Sprayer to your specific application needs.
  • Choose rugged single or multiple nozzle bodies. The product range includes 80 and 110 degree extended range flat fan nozzles, low-drift deflector nozzles, air induction venturi nozzles, and special 8-hole nozzles for liquid fertilizer.
  • Special nozzles, droplet pipes, or droplet hoses with separate spray lines are available to apply liquid fertilizer in late growing stages or to sensitive crops.
