The best of both worlds - KTL cathodic dip-paint coating combined with powder coating

High-quality, multi-layer paint finish
The paintwork on a fertiliser spreader is exposed to heavy wear and tear. The paintwork is intended to protect the spreader from corrosion, especially when handling fertiliser and where moisture is involved. Starting with the 2022 model year, there is a new painting process for the ZA-V, ZA-TS and ZG-TS fertiliser spreader ranges. This involves, on the one hand, a cathodic dip painting process (known as KTL) for priming to give the best possible protection on the internal surfaces of tubes and box sections and, on the other hand, a powder coating process to create a high-quality visual finish with extra-thick paint providing increased protection against mechanical demands. 


7-year manufacturer guarantee
Based on this optimum painting process, AMAZONE is able to offer its customers a manufacturer guarantee of seven years against rusting through, starting with the 2022 model year. From 01/01/2023, customers can apply to have the guarantee activated for ZA-V, ZA-TS, and ZG-TS models, starting from the 2022 model year. This registration is done very simply via the manufacturer’s portal, myAmazone, bearing in mind the terms and conditions (www.amazone.net/7-years) stated there. After registration, one can continue to work without any worries.


The benefits

  • Cathodic dip painting process 
    - Suppression of rust infiltration 
    - Best possible protection, even on the inner surfaces of tubes and box sections 
  • Powder coated top coat 
    - Double protection through additionally applied powder coating 
    - Improved resistance against everyday wear and tear 
  • Quality and reliability 
    - All the components on the spreading unit and all the hydraulic fittings are made of stainless steel 
    - Impact, UV and chemical resistant plastic sieves


High-quality, multi-layer paint finish – the most modern from all angles:

  1. 14-stage painting preparation (e.g. degreasing)
  2. Zinc phosphating provides the most effective counteraction against rust formation
  3. Thick cathodic dip priming for full corrosion protection, even in cavities and hard-to-reach areas
  4. Powder coating for a high-quality appearance and extra-thick paint for increased protection against everyday wear and tear

Intelligent design – No compromise on functionality and capacity

Enormous work rates

With hopper capacities of 7,500 l and 10,000 l, the ZG-TS models are especially efficient and ideal for large farm sizes which focus in particular on increased precision. Thanks to their size, valuable travelling and loading times are saved. Due to the large hopper opening, the loading procedure can also be carried out very comfortably via a front end loader or from a bulk filling system. The belt floor, automatically centred to the middle, ensures the optimum material flow.


Benefits of the base hopper

  • Low hopper centre of gravity
  • Low filling height
  • Large filling opening
  • Low wear rubber floor belt
  • Automatic belt floor centralisation


  • Accurate metering
    After the pre-chamber, the fertiliser is metered by means of the shutter slides in the exactly the same way as on the mounted spreaders.
  • Automatic pre-chamber filling
    An endless floor belt for conveying the fertiliser is provided along the bottom of the hopper. This automatically fills the pre-chamber during the spreading operation.

Everything flows smoothly thanks to the optimum hopper shape

Thanks to the sophisticated hopper shape of the ZG-TS, it has an optimum centre of gravity which significantly counteracts any negative support loads. The steep hopper walls without corners or edges ensure the optimum flow of material, even in sloping terrain. This also makes the cleaning process considerably easier. In addition, there is also an increased range of movement for the steering axle which has steering angles of up to 28 °.


Benefits of the hopper design

  • Optimum material flow even in sloping terrain
  • Simple cleaning procedure
  • Generous space for the axle steering
  • Sophisticated centre of gravity avoids any negative support loads
  • High ground clearance


ZG-TS 7501

  • Hopper capacity: 7,500 l
  • Unladen weight: 3,850 kg 
  • Payload: 8,650 kg


ZG-TS 7501

  • Hopper capacity: 10,500 l
  • Unladen weight: 4,000 kg 
  • Payload: 8,500 kg

SafetySet – integrated as standard More safety for both people and machine

As with all equipment from AMAZONE, the ZG-TS has a very high level of base equipment to ensure the safety requirements are fulfilled correctly. The lighting system with its state of the art technology (LED lights) ensures safe road transport and is, in addition, long-lasting and robust.

Hydraulic parking jack – quick coupling and uncoupling

To enable the coupling and uncoupling of the ZG-TS with as much ease and speed as possible, the ZG-TS trailed spreaders feature, as standard, a hydraulic parking jack. To maintain the high ground clearance, the stand, when folded away practically disappears entirely into the frame.

The transport boxes – practical and spacious

Well integrated and within reach, for example, the mobile and digital EasyCheck test set has its place. The very large storage compartments provide the possibility to transport additional spreading vane sets and other tools.

Hand wash tank

As standard, on the left hand side of the machine, a hand wash tank is integrated in the machine so that, even after an interruption, you can wash your hands before continuing to work.

ZG-TS Truck – Precision combined with the advantages of the carrier vehicle

More efficiency and flexibility

The ZG-TS Truck demount spreader is the ideal solution for contractors and farms that need to quickly travel large distances between the field and yard. In addition, the spreaders can be used on a carrier vehicles with larger ground clearances and track widths, so that the range of application is increased. The work rates can also be considerably increased with a self-propelled machine. Since the ZG-TS Truck is also supplied as a mounted spreader with the intelligent ProfisPro, WindControl and ArgusTwin systems, it also sets new standards in the self-propelled machine segment as far as precision is concerned.


Advantages of the ZG-TS Truck

  • Better manoeuvrability in the yard and in the field  
  • More efficiency on the road thanks to higher transport speeds 
  • Benefits of the carrying vehicle, such as, larger ground clearance and track widths 
  • Optimum centre of gravity by emptying from back to front
