Description of Unit
The TSF1080, TSF1090, TSF1280 & TSF1290 are pull-
type implements. They have a working width of 80 or 90
feet (24.4 or 27.4m) depending on model, and are capa-
ble of spraying at either 60 feet (18.3m)or the full 80 or
90 feet depending on your application needs. The level
float boom is fully suspended starting with vertical spring
suspension in a 42in (107cm) hydraulic elevator which
provides a wide range of boom height adjustment along
with gas shocks that provide side-to-side stability.
Intended Usage

tem to apply liquid pesticides, herbicides or fertilizers to
production-agriculture crops only. Do not modify sprayer
