The PT270 features a mechanical axis drive instead of hydraulics motors for better traction in hilly terrain and reliable 50km/hr road use. It is powreed by a 270hp Deutz engine that uses only 0.6-0.8 lit/ha of fuel.
Horsch Leeb’s own specifically designed boom control can maintain a 25cm boom distance from the crops, but ideally operates 40-50cm above the crop. An 8,000-litre tank is housed within a compact design that ensures the sprayer is easy to operate and manoeuvre.
Pneumatic nozzle control allows for individual, intelligent application techniques for an excellent wetting and penetration of the crop with a droplet size of 300 microns. The sprayer pipe can be specified with various nozzle body combinations including a single-nozzle body with a 50cm horizontal spacing, a double body with 25cm spacing and quadruple body with intermediate nozzles.

| The Horsch Leeb PT270 is available with booms up to 36m wide. |
A 25cm nozzle spacing keeps drift to a minimum when operating at 40-50cm above the crop. Horsch Leeb has designed one of the most advanced boom contour following systems available to make this possible. All sections of the boom can go above and below horizontal to keep the optimum boom height that is essential in nearly all spraying operations.
Available in working widths up to 36m, the steel sprayer boom has positive-mode connections for durability and ease of use. The PT 270 is fitted with a rotary pump for low wear and long life performance, while the cleaning system uses the displacement principle for lower water consumption and faster cleaning.
The stainless steel tank is designed for a long life and easy cleaning without leaving any residues, and its 8,000-litre capacity can be refilled in just eight minutes.
