Stilts convert pickup into HyRise sprayer CROPS Weed Control 16-2-22 "It's like getting two sprayers in one," says GVM of its new HyRise pickup sprayer. "What we've done, essentially, is to equip our conventional pickup Hydra-Sprayer with stilts, converting it into a HyRise with 39 in. of crop clearance."
For 1992, GVM is offering the HyRise on "stilted" new Ford F-3504-WD pickups. Key features include 30 or 36 in. row spacing, 400 gal. poly eliptical tank, 50 ft. hydraulic booms with "joy stick" control and mid-boom breakaway, and foam markers.
It takes about 3 hrs. to convert the rig for high-clearance operation on stilts, and about two hours to convert back to normal operation. Road speed of the "stilted" HyRise is about 45 mph.
Complete with a new pickup, it sells for right at $58,000.
