Tyre option for spring applications

Better suited to tramline widths when travelling through growing crops, the  Alliance 580/85 R42 IF tyres on the Lowlander 120 HY HBD provide a longer tread pattern and reduce the machine's overall width down to 2.82m."We are seeing more customers wanting to top-dress in the spring, so the narrower tyres and shorter machine offers good output whilst reducing crop damage," comments Ben Johnson, UK and Ireland sales manager for G T Bunning and Sons."The 120 HY HBD allows a 19.1m³ load due to the built-in flared side extensions, but crucially features a shorter wheelbase than the bigger Lowlander 150, so it will lessen crop damage when turning on the headlands."The company will also show a 120 HY TVA with the recently designed large diameter bottom spreading blades for increased accuracy. This machine will also be equipped with weigh cells, which allows the operator to set a target rate for precise applications of products.
