- Maximum performance
- Total control
- Minimal soil compaction
The Predator is everything you love about Househam – but bigger. From massive capacity and total control to incredibly low weight and perfect balance, the Predator sets the new standard for advanced spraying technology delivering outstanding stability and manoeuvrability.
With capacities of 4,000 and 5,000 litres and twin-fold and tri-fold booms ranging from 24 to 36 metres, the PREDATOR features a new chassis developed for use with the latest large wheel and tyre equipment.
The Predator is the biggest machine in the Househam self-propelled range, weighing in at up 10,440kg. This is much lighter than other machines of a similar size, delivering outstanding stability and manoeuvrability.
Better still, the weight is so perfectly balanced that soil compaction is minimal. The 230hp 4-cylinder MTU engine – complete with 2-speed cruise control and a maximum road speed of up to 50km/h – is rear mounted for optimal weight distribution.
Fitted with Michelin SprayBib 380/90 R46 rowcrop wheels or 650/60 R38 low ground pressure wheels, ground clearances of 1.10 and 1.05 metres ensure that crops are protected.
The ability to work long hours without having to refill is enabled by a choice of 5,000 litre or 4,000 litre spray tanks feeding booms from 24 to 36 metres long, including twin-fold and tri-fold designs.
Optimise your performance with our TMC (Total Machine Control) with NavGuide GPS mapping system. TMC integrates many functions into one simple to use touchscreen console. TMC provides you with complete application rate control, engine management and diagnostics, hydrostatic drive control and monitoring, built-in warnings and fault detection, and automatic service reminders. The TMC is the main interface for setting up the spraying system and features Househam’s Spray Pilot auto steering and NavGuide GPS mapping system. Together, these offer precise control of application rate for improved accuracy and reduced overspray, particularly in irregularly shaped fields
The predator offers a choice of twin-fold and tri-fold booms ranging from 24 to 36 metres,
Our hydraulic incline feature enables you to incline one boom while still using the other, making it easy to spray around obstacles and adjust the boom to the terrain’s contours.
NORAC height control also ensures the boom is kept in the optimum position for effective application.
Individual Nozzle Control (INC) and Auto Nozzle Select (ANS) also offer improved accuracy and reduced overspray, particularly in irregularly shaped fields with individual nozzles activated electronically either automatically or manually from the cab.
The Predator featuring the latest spraying technology as standard including:
The better equipped the cab, the more productive the operator.
The Preadator’s cab boasts specially designed fully active hydraulic suspension to protect the operator from the movement of the machine across even bumpy terrain. The Category 4, fully air-conditioned cabin is also fitted with sound insulation to provide an ultra-quiet operating environment.
There’s plenty of room inside, too, and panoramic visibility. A high-back Grammer air suspension seat, electric mirrors, reversing camera, DAB radio, CD, and Bluetooth make the Predator a pleasure to operate.
