Hillview Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 I have decided to look at the Amazone UF 1801 sprayer with FT 1001 Front Tank. This is made by universal hobbies and retails for around £55. It comes complete with instructions. It is screwed and tied into the box. Takes abit of time and care.

Hillview Posted January 31, 2012 Author Share Posted January 31, 2012 A very detailed model. Note the transport wheels on the front tank, cloth straps and level indicators. Note the sprayer washer lance and reel. The sprayer is also piped. You can see the pipes at the bottom. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hillview Posted January 31, 2012 Author Share Posted January 31, 2012 Fitted to tractor. I chose a UH MF 7499. It fits onto UH tractors and front linkages. The back sprayer fits onto the pick up hitch. It is not suitable for non UH tractors. The front tank fits on easily. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hillview Posted January 31, 2012 Author Share Posted January 31, 2012 The sprayer is 85 cms wide equating to 28m booms. They are well detailed but fragile. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hillview Posted January 31, 2012 Author Share Posted January 31, 2012 It is the widest in comparision to other sprayers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hillview Posted January 31, 2012 Author Share Posted January 31, 2012 Positives: Great detail on both front and back tanks, good boom detail, easy to fit onto tractor. This would look well in the model cabinet. Negatives: Only fits UH tractors, fits too far away from the tractor, very fragile. As it is 85cms wide it would look out of place on a small layout.
