2025 John Deere HD200

Features May Include:

• Industry-exclusive diaphragm or centrifugal pump options

Diaphragm pump

If spraying turf paint, using a walking spray boom or just personal preference, the diaphragm pump is the option to choose. Diaphragm pumps provide lower flow rates, but can achieve much higher pressures compared to centrifugal pumps.

The 113.9-L/min (30.1 gpm) diaphragm pump provides plenty of flow for turf applications, but also can generate 290 psi (20 bar) of pressure. The pump is powered by a hydraulic motor and features a three-diaphragm configuration for excellent efficiency and smooth operation. The ability of this type of pump to handle thicker fluids, and its ability to run dry with no seals to fail, makes it a popular choice for tough spray solutions, such as turf paint.

Diaphragm pumps are positive displacement pumps, meaning that every revolution is going to pump fluid out of the pump outlet. As a result, a pressure relief valve is added to the main sprayer control valve assembly to protect the system if the system is dead-headed. 

The relief valve pressure is adjustable up to 290 psi (20 bar), but should initially be set at 200 psi (13.8 bar). The spring-loaded relief valve opens a bypass line back to the tank when the system pressure reaches the relief pressure.

The pistons operate in an oil bath for long life and optimum lubrication. The diaphragms should be replaced annually or every 400 hours, whichever comes first. A standard suction strainer helps increase the life of the diaphragms by filtering debris out of the spray tank before it reaches the pump.

• Choice of Gen2 TeeJet® automatic or manual application rate-control systems

The golf environment can be harsh, especially during spraying activities. The Gen2 TeeJet® controllers are designed to improve water resistance and offer better resistance to weather exposure. There are still two types of controllers to choose from, the automatic and manual models.

• The Gen2 controllers have improved water resistance characteristics and better resistance to inclement weather exposure.
• The Gen2s are designed to plug and play into existing wiring harness just as the previous controllers did.
• Programming, use, and functionality will be identical to the previous generation controllers.

• Get more out of the ProGator™ vehicle with optional storage stands

Who says sprayers are just for spraying? With the SelectSpray™ Series, the days of dedicated sprayers are a thing of the past. 

Optional storage stands allow removal and installation of the sprayer in a matter of minutes. Spray in the morning, quickly change over to a cargo box for hauling some cargo, and then spray in the afternoon. It's really that simple, and no tools are needed to make the change.

For added convenience, the storage stands have caster wheels for easy removal of the sprayer. The operator can easily position the sprayer and experience the value of the caster wheels when re-installing the sprayer onto the ProGator vehicle.

No need to get the ProGator perfectly positioned under the sprayer; instead, use the caster wheels to get proper alignment.

The sprayer can be removed from the ProGator in a matter of minutes.

First, remove the control box from the mounting system and relocate the controller to the storage area on the back left-hand side of the sprayer. Leave the wiring harness connected to the controller.

• Convenient wiring harness allows for easy sprayer removal and component access

No matter which rate control system, manual or automatic, is selected, the wiring harnesses on the SelectSpray™ Series are identical. This allows for quick and easy changes when moving from an automatic rate controller to a manual rate controller or vice versa.

More importantly, the innovative electrical system design locates key components in one location on the machine. All fuses, relays, and lift/lower contactors are located in one convenient component box on the left-hand side of the machine. No tools are required to open the control box, leading to quick troubleshooting and component replacement.

When the sprayer is removed, the wiring harness remains with the sprayer—making changes between a sprayer and cargo box, or other attachments, a breeze. Only three connectors must be disconnected to remove the sprayer from the ProGator™ vehicle, greatly reducing removal and installation time.

• Impact-resistant polyethylene spray tank features low center of gravity and excellent visibility

Both sprayers in the SelectSpray™ Series line are equipped with impact-resistant polyethylene spray tanks. The tanks are styled for excellent visibility to the outer boom sections and a low center of gravity.

The tanks have a decal on the driver's side for reading the spray solution level, which is marked in graduated units. Product is loaded into the tank on the left-hand side of the machine. 

A convenient basket strainer prevents large debris from entering the tank and can be easily removed without tools for cleaning.

The tank is equipped with a quick-fill feature, allowing the tank to be filled quickly anywhere it can be attached to a clean water source. This saves a lot of time by eliminating the task of traveling back to the original filling point every time the tank needs to be filled.

An anti-siphon feature on the quick-fill protects groundwater from unwanted chemicals.

For efficient pump flow and draining, the tank is sloped to a sump that provides sufficient volume to keep up with high-flow centrifugal pumps, and allows for proper and complete draining when emptying the tank. 

A vent line is also provided as standard equipment that runs to the top of the tank to provide optimum priming for centrifugal pumps. The vent line also features a check valve that keeps chemical from exiting the tank.

• Standard personal wash system on board

For added convenience, the SelectSpray™ Series features a standard personal wash tank. The tank should be filled with clean water only. 

To open up flow for washing hands and other tasks, simply turn the handle to open up the valve.
