These purpose built spray rigs are designed to apply two different chemical mixtures simultaneously. A hooded boom sprays between the moulds with end jets spraying over the moulds or over the trees. The units are telescopic for varying mould widths and side shift for centering between rows.
With the country that Beechworth Spraying covers ranging from tame pasture to extreme
conditions, a machine that could go anywhere was needed for use in plantation spraying. A Valmet
Forwarder, a six-wheel drive vehicle normally used for tree harvesting, was purchased. The entire
tree harvesting equipment was removed and replaced with a Goldacres spray rig. The Forwarder has a
clearance of about one metre and will virtually go anywhere. It is able to drive over stumps and
rocks with relative ease, other machinery would have great trouble in these conditions.
