Key Features

• Huge 2.4m (8′) working width
• Mounted 60L tank, pump, and hand-lance for spot spraying
• Unique electric drive system eliminates dripping
• Simple IP67 sealed electronic control module supplied as standard for maximum control
• Carpet roller with thick-pile wool/poly blend for durability and effective herbicide application

Carpet Roller System

The W240 features a huge 200mm (8″) diameter carpet roller, simple automated electrical operation, and integrated tank with hand-lance for years of trouble-free operation.

As standard, a high-quality thick-pile wool/poly blend carpet is installed to balance liquid carrying capacity and wear resistance.

Ground-Breaking Electric Drive

The W240 trailed Weed Wiper features a unique electric drive motor, operating at 25rpm. This ensures the roller runs at a constant speed regardless of forward speed, eliminating dripping while ensuring weeds receive an effective herbicide dose (e.g. Glyphosate).

The constant roller speed also allows more liquid to be held in reserve on the roller, without dripping occurring and damaging the crop below.

Simple, Yet Effective Design

The simple design of the W240 ensures a strong yet lightweight machine. The 19x7x8″ semi-flotation tyres maintain low ground pressure without being overly wide, reducing the chance of herbicide transfer to the wheels and underlying grass.

With simple height adjustment and a hand-lance fitted as standard to the mounted 60L tank, the W240 Weed Wiper provides easy operation and effective coverage of awkward areas such as field boundaries.
