mounting herbicide tank to tillage tool

Anonymous-0 · Apr 30, 2014

Im looking to mount a 500 gallon tank on a field cultivator to spray pre emerge while I work the ground. Will this extra weight throw off the cultivators depth and leveling? Should I just pull a nurse tank?

We added a 500 gallon tank to our wilrich excel field cultivator for same purpose and it didn't effect tillage depth much at all, we used an old sprayer frame cradle and fabricated mounts to go from the drags frame to the tank cradle. it works well and is secure, one thing you will need to keep an extra eye on is the wheel bearings on your tillage tool as the tank when full adds extra amount of weight to an already heavy piece of equipment that the spindles or bearings may not be designed for.
