ZA-X mounted spreader

The spread rate and the working width are preselected from the extremely comprehensive setting chart. Large, easy-to-read scales help you to set the spread rate precisely via the metering shutters. The setting can be made manually on the rear or electrically via the EasySet 2 in-cab terminal.

The OmniaSet spreading discs are equipped with pivoting spreading vanes that generate a spread pattern that is extremely precise and safe. With the aid of an easily readable scale in the user’s field of view, the spreading vanes can be adjusted easily and exactly without tools. AMAZONE provides comprehensive setting charts for all kinds of fertiliser, seeds and slug pellets. The OmniaSet spreading discs are made from stainless steel.

Late top dressing is advantageous for generating quality crops. This is extremely easy to do with AMAZONE spreading discs – the standard swivel tips on the spreading vanes just have to be folded up.

Economical, and in particular, extremely ecologically sensitive mineral fertilising requires responsible minded actions. According to new environmental directives, environmentally harmless fertilisation on the field edge is not possible without modern border spreading systems.

Side spreading (yield-oriented setting) 
The adjacent field is an area which is used agriculturally. In this instance, the small amount of fertiliser thrown beyond the field boundary can be tolerated. The full target rate is applied up to the field boundary.

Border spreading (environmentally oriented setting)
If the field is next to a road or a cycle path, no fertiliser may be thrown beyond the field boundary. In this case, the throwing distance is adjusted in combination with the shutter slide. 

Water course spreading (environmentally oriented setting) 
If there is a body of water directly at the edge of the field, a defined distance to the water must be maintained when fertilising according to the fertiliser regulations. For this purpose, the throwing distance is further reduced in combination with the shutter slide.

Border spreading with the border spread deflector 
If the first tramline is situated at the field’s edge, border spreading (environmentally-orientated setting) is then achieved by utilising the half-side shut-off of the spread fan. No fertiliser is thrown beyond the field boundary and optimum fertilisation is maintained inside the field.

The standard TeleQuick vane for side, border and water course spreading (available for the ZA-XW 502 as an option) is removed from the storage pocket and exchanged for the normal long spreading vane without any tools. It couldn’t be quicker or more convenient!

The one-sided, manually folded spread deflector is a low-cost solution for carrying out boundary spreading on the left side in the direction of travel.

The Limiter can be mounted on the left-hand side of the ZA-X. The all-stainless steel Limiter is simply folded down into the spread fan. The lamella block then causes a part of the fertiliser pattern to change direction. Optimum side, border and water course spreading results can be obtained in this way. 

Perfect boundary and side spreading

The Limiter is a modern boundary spreading system that is used if the first tramline is half the working width of the fertiliser spreader in from the edge of the field. It is used for side, boundary and water course spreading.

The decisive advantage with the Limiter is that there is no need to stop, interrupt the spreading operation or leave the tractor cab.

The EasySet 2 in-cab terminal can be used to reduce the spread rate for boundary and water-course spreading.

The Limiter can be moved on a fixed frame within a generously dimensioned swivel range. This sets the Limiter to the required position for side, boundary or water course spreading, depending on the type of fertiliser. Exact details of this can be found in the setting chart and on a sticker on the machine. If the Limiter is not being used, it is conveniently swivelled up via a hydraulic cylinder.
