Redball Introduces Self-Propelled Sprayer
Redball LLC's first entry into the self-propelled sprayer market is the Model 7840.
The 1,200-gallon tank sprayer is designed with a 2WD mechanical drive train powered by a Tier 3, 275-horsepower 6.8-liter John Deere diesel engine. This is married to an Allison 3000 automatic transmission with a locking torque converter, a JCB on-the-go locking differential and gear-driven drop boxes. Axles, which are adjustable from 120 to 152 inches, are suspended with an automatic axle-leveling air bag system with sway control.
The sprayer's bolted flex design frame is built from 3/8-inch 110,000 PSI C-channel steel, with heavy-duty open section cross members. The wheelbase is 13 feet, 9 inches, allowing for a turning radius of 15 feet. Crop clearance is 48 inches.
The Model 7840 features a ProAction Flex Boom, which is available in 80-foot and 90-foot widths. The unit is available with Raven and Raven VIPER controllers. For more information, visit www.redballproducts.com.
