Hardi 4500

COMMANDER –  Intelligent spraying - Fields ahead

The COMMANDER is designed to meet the demands of the modern professional farmer worldwide. This generation of sprayers is designed to lead the way in capacity, reliability, safety, optimization, ease of operation, and precision.

The COMMANDER is a high end performer designed for continuous use by demanding operators. An example of the functional design is the logical layout of the left-hand side of the sprayer, where all primary operations are located.

SafeTrack

The HARDI SafeTrack is available on the COMMANDER (optional). This revolutionary design merges the benefits from other traditional systems into one high performance system. With the HARDI SafeTrack you do not have to choose between either tight turning radius or stability.

This ensures a minimum of crop damage combined with safe and user-friendly operation. A computer constantly monitors forward speed and turning radius to make sure that the correction made by the tracking system is as safe as possible.

SafeTrack ensures that the boom is always 100% perpendicular to the tramlines. This ensures perfect application when turning at the end of the fields.

TWIN boom - Winning air

Let’s take control. With the HARDI TWIN system, air will help you control the wind. You are in control of the speed and angle giving you the possibility of covering the whole plant, from top to bottom.

Spray drift from a conventional sprayer can be so strong that the operator has to stop before having the spray job done. With efficient drift control, it is much easier for the operator to be able to spray the entire field.

Under most conditions, the farmers get at least twice as many hours for a safe and efficient spray job with the TWIN sprayer compared to conventional spraying.

DELTA FORCE boom - Compact in transport - wide in the field

DELTA FORCE is designed to be a large boom. The selection of features and the layout of the boom structure are targeted to perform at high driving speed and high performance at boom widths of 120 - 132ft. The result is a boom with many simple and strong solutions which together give a high-performing and reliable boom with a simple setup, low maintenance, and a great design.

A very advanced, but yet simple center part controls the movements of the DELTA FORCE boom. The five pendulum settings allow to adjust of the boom performance, either to a pendulum, which follows the sprayer movements or to follow the level of the terrain.

SafeTrack

Perfect steering

With the HARDI SafeTrack you do not have to choose between either tight turning radius or stability. This ensures a minimum of crop damage combined with safe and user-friendly operation.

Chassis

Chassis

The heavy-duty COMMANDER chassis and axles are designed for high speed driving under the most demanding field and road conditions ready to meet the tough demands of the professional farmer.

The platform is compact and very easy to access and gives you unobstructed access to the tank lid. The rear and floor plate can be removed allowing easy access to the fluid and electric system.

Low center of gravity

The design of the chassis with all steel parts located as low as possible in combination with a perfect match with the polyethylene tank provides low centre of gravity. The 500 l RinseTank is placed over the rear axle and provides extra stability.

High quality surface treatment

The chassis as well as all other steel components have been pre-treated with zinc phosphate before a high quality coating of powder paint. This treatment provides outstanding protection against corrosion from chemicals and harsh weather conditions.

Suspended axle and drawbar

Suspended axle and drawbar

The HARDI COMMANDER is available with an optional unique hydraulic suspension system. The strong hydraulic cylinders absorb the shock loads instead of transferring them to the boom and the tractor. This offers you a high comfort level at high driving and spraying speeds.

The drawbar and axle on the COMMANDER 7000 l are as standard fully suspended. Axle suspension on 5500 l is an option. The full up and down load at the drawbar from the sprayer to the tractor is transferred through rubber dampers built into the chassis.
