The Handy is a hand-held spinning disc sprayer for the Controlled Droplet Application (CDA) of herbicides.
It can apply CDA formulations or traditional water-based products at total spray volumes of only 10-30 litres/hectare. The consistently large spray droplets of around 250 microns minimise the risk of spray drift. Spraying behind the operator ensures maximum operator safety in use and the advanced ergonomic design eliminates the need to carry spray liquid on the operators back (which also minimises operator safety risks).
The Handy is used for the application of post and pre-emergent herbicides in row crops such as cotton, sugar cane, groundnuts, sisal and maize. A hectare can be sprayed in 2 - 3 hours.
- Light to carry and easy to use.
- High work rate and economical.
- Robust aluminium handle and and simple to maintain spray head.
- Battery powered with no pumping required.
