About Three-Point/Mounted Sprayers

Among the various machines growers around the world use to protect billions of acres of crops each year are three-point/mounted sprayers, also sometimes referred to as “ATV sprayers.” Their design and use cases complement those of all-in-one self-propelled sprayers and pull-type sprayers that mount a tank and sprayer components on a trailer. Three-point/mounted sprayers typically attach to a tractor or ATV using a three-point hitch. In some cases, the tank and pump mechanism are mounted behind the tractor while the spray booms are installed beneath the tractor; other models are designed to fit into the bed of a utility vehicle.

Precise Application

As with their self-propelled and pull-type counterparts, larger mounted sprayers can certainly do field work. But unlike other varieties, some three-point/mounted sprayers specialize at helping control weeds in more restrictive areas where spot spraying makes more sense. This can include such situations as spraying rows along fence lines, in ditches, and around ponds, as well as spraying in smaller areas such as pastures, orchards, and food plots.

Common Features

Depending on their size, these sprayers can have tank capacities ranging from tens to hundreds of litres, with booms of varying lengths and differing folding abilities, nozzles, and compatibility with sprayer attachments. Features common of sprayers in this category include drainable tanks, road-friendly transport widths, breakaway booms with hinged sections that can bend on contact with an obstacle and then return to their original position, self-leveling booms, chemical agitation systems, rinse tanks, and the inclusion of a handgun for spot spraying purposes. Other capabilities and design features can include monitoring and boom control from the seat and integrated fork points to enable easier loading and unloading. In recent years, manufacturers have begun to place increasing emphasis on safety features, including improved drift prevention and counterbalanced tanks to place more weight closer to the tractor wheels.
