ZG-TS trailed spreader

Advantages of the ZG-TS:

• Maximum precision during normal spreading and border spreading, regardless of external influences such as wind, hilly terrain or varying fertiliser properties
• Reduction of the load on the axle through optimum weight distribution
• True track-following thanks to a steering axle with a steering angle of up to 28°
• Highly efficient fertilisation with maximum area coverage

A huge output
With hopper capacities of 7,500 l and 10,000 l, the ZG-TS models are especially efficient and ideal for large farms which attach particular importance to high precision. Thanks to their size, valuable travelling and loading times are saved. Due to the large hopper opening, the loading procedure can also be carried out very comfortably via a front end loader or from a bulk filling system. The belt floor, automatically centred to the middle, ensures the optimum material flow.

Advantages of the base hopper

• Low hopper centre of gravity 
• Low filling height 
• Large fill opening 
• Low wear rubber floor belt 
• Automatic belt floor centralisation

1. Precise metering
   After the pre-chamber, the fertiliser is metered by means of the shutter slides in the exactly the same way as on the mounted spreaders.
2. Automatic pre-chamber filling
   An endless floor belt for conveying the fertiliser is provided along the bottom of the hopper. This automatically fills the pre-chamber during the spreading operation.

The floor belt rises by 5 degrees which enables a weight transfer from the back to the front. This guarantees optimum load distribution during spreading. Maximum drawbar load and reduced axle loads enable safe driving in the field under all operating conditions.

Benefits of the hopper design

• Optimum material flow even in sloping terrain 
• Simple cleaning procedure 
• Generous space for the axle steering 
• Optimum weight distribution 
• High ground clearance

High-quality, multi-layer paint finish

The paintwork on a fertiliser spreader is exposed to particular demands. The paintwork is intended to protect the spreader from corrosion, especially when handling fertiliser and where moisture is involved. Starting with the 2022 model year, there is a new painting process for the ZA-V, ZA-TS and ZG-TS fertiliser spreader ranges. This involves, on the one hand, a cathodic dip painting process (known as KTL) for priming to give the best possible protection on the internal surfaces of tubes and box sections and, on the other hand, a powder coating process to create a high-quality visual finish with extra-thick paint providing increased protection against mechanical demands.

7 year manufacturer’s guarantee

Based on this optimum painting process, AMAZONE is able to offer its customers a manufacturer guarantee of seven years against rusting through, starting with the 2022 model year. From 01/01/2023, customers can apply to have the guarantee activated for ZA-V, ZA-TS, and ZG-TS models, starting from the 2022 model year. This registration is done very simply via the

manufacturer’s portal, myAmazone, bearing in mind the terms and conditions (www.amazone.net/7-years) stated there. After registration, one can continue to work without any worries.

The benefits

• Cathodic dip painting process 
  • Suppression of rust infiltration 
  • Best possible protection, even on the inner surfaces of tubes and box sections 
• Powder coated top coat 
  • Double protection through additionally applied powder coating 
  • Improved resistance against everyday wear and tear 
• Quality and reliability 
  • All the components on the spreading system and all hydraulic fittings are made from stainless steel 
  • Impact, UV and chemical resistant plastic sieves

High-quality multi-layer paint finish – the most modern from all angles:

1. 14-step paint preparation (e.g. degreasing) 
2. Zinc phosphating provides the most effective counteraction of rust formation 
3. Thick cathodic dip priming for full corrosion protection, even in cavities and those hard-to-reach areas 
4. Powder coating for a high-quality appearance and extra thick paint for increased protection against mechanical demands
