VALMAR 1255 Pull-Type INTER-ROW BANDING OR BROADCAST Applicator

When only the most accurate rates and precise product placement will do

Air Manifold Gauge
A pressure switch measures air manifold pressure using inches of water column. The switch is connected to the in-cab control with warning light and buzzer to warn of insufficient air pressure, ensuring proper application.

Manifold-Venturi System and Funnel Tray
The venturi and manifold systems can be lowered by means of a quick release. Funnel trays are inserted for collection of product when calibrating or emptying the unit.

Hopper Bottom Slide Gates
Manually operated slide gates stop product flow to the metering system, allowing you to remove the roller for cleaning or servicing.

Calibration Hand Crank
To make calibrating a product as precise and easy as possible, a hand-crank is provided to turn the metering system. The product can be collected by using the funnel trays and weighed for determining exact application rates.

In-Cab Control
The dual electric clutch control allows you to operate the metering system from the operator’s seat. Two magnetic clutches and in-cab control allow half shut-off on either side.
