I have been thinking I would like to run my field sprayer from the seat of an old row crop tractor. Used a utility to spray this past Spring and it was just not right. Not a lot of visibility sitting down so low. Sprayer has a 500 gallon tank, booms move up and down with hydraulics, 12v tractor mounted control box, 540 pto pump.
Sitting here looking at a nice Farmall M that has come available. Trying to figure out if there is a reason this could not run the sprayer or should I look for another SMTA with the IPTO and live hydraulics? Don't want to use my current SMTA as it does the hay here close to home and the sprayer is used 20 miles away at about the same time. I really enjoy seat time on the old open station row crop so hoping to put another one to use.
