Rear Hitch
A rear hitch is required for a trailing nurse tank. An
optional drop rear hitch is available.
The assembly offered by Great Plains includes hitch
mount weldment, decal mount (not shown), breakaway
coupler mount point, and a Schuck model 850 cushioned
hitch with a 50,000 pound load rating and 2,000 pound
tongue weight.
Drop Rear Hitch
Nurse Tank Light Harness
For extra safety in the field, this harness provides an
SAE J560b 7-pin receptacle at the applicator rear hitch
(option), interconnected with the applicator lighting
system.
Loss of Control / Braking Hazards:
Do not use the lighting harness for highway transport of nurse
tanks or trailers behind an applicator. At transport speeds on
roads, an urgent or emergency deceleration will result in a
“jackknife” upset of a trailer. Even normal braking above field
speed risks loss of control. The entire train can exceed the
braking capability of the tractor, particularly if a full tank is
towed. An accident is likely to result in serious injury or death,
and major equipment damage.
