Amazone says that the new AmaSpread 2 terminal provides users with simple menu navigation of the ZA-V Profis Control weigh cell fertiliser spreader.

All spreading information is shown constantly on the 4.3-inch colour display, and all important functions, such as application rate and the position of the border spreading device, can be actuated directly using a back-lit button.

Spreading rate, area covered, working time and material-specific settings for up to 10 different fertilisers can be stored and recalled. The terminal also allows for forward speed related spread rate regulation, the manual switching of up to six part-width sections and the use of the Profis weighing system.

All functions on the terminal can be reached intuitively using one hand during spreading. Each button controls one function.

The 200Hz weighing system provides it with precise spread rate regulation, which says Amazone, results in a constant application rate, even with varying fertiliser quality, and when combined with the optional tilt sensor guarantees precise weighing results, even on slopes.

The terminal can also be used to switch between side, boundary or watercourse spreading when using the optional Limiter V+ border spreading system. Other options include a hopper low level sensor. The possibilities of the new terminal are rounded off by the integration of work lights.
