The five point suspension system used on the Crop
REVISIONS
Cruiser sprayer consists of four parallel links, one
2
Panhard rod, and 2 air bags on each axle. The rear
axle of the machine is also fitted with an anti-roll
sway bar.
Parallelogram links hold the axle in place under the
chassis. Panhard rods hold the axle centred in the
chassis. The parallelogram arms allow the drop legs
to distort or twist forward and backwards when the
wheels come in contact with an obstruction such
as a pot hole, log or embankment. This oscillation is
absorbed by polyurethane bushes on each end of
the links. The life time of these bushes is subject to
the conditions the sprayer operates in and the style
of operation that it receives.
