Boom
Boom types and sizes
The HARDI® EAGLE™ booms are available in the following types and sizes:
SPB sizes: 45’, 50’, 60’ & 66’
The 45’ - 66’ SPB booms are built with the same basic components. There are differences in the outer wing sections to give the range of boom widths. The 45’ & 50’ booms incorporate the breakaway into the folding hinge point between the inner/ outer wings. The 60’ & 66’ booms include breakaway sections in the outer wing.
SPC sizes: 75’, 80’, 88’, 90’ & 100’
The 75’ - 100’ SPC booms are built with the same basic components as the SPB booms. The main differences are in the size of the boom steel profiles, the folding hinge area between the inner/outer wings and the type of breakaway sections.
SPC Dual Fold sizes: 90’/60’ & 120’/90’
The SPC booms are also available in Dual Fold models; 90’/60’ & 120’/90’. The outer sections of the dual fold booms fold vertically to allow for two different spraying widths.
Components cannot be exchanged between the EAGLE™ SPB and SPC booms. Also, the 120’/90’ Dual Fold SPC booms are equipped with a different center section than the other SPC booms.
Note: Individual boom wing fold is not possible using the 120’/90’ Dual Fold SPC booms.
÷
Hydraulic systems
The HARDI® EAGLE™ booms are available in four different hydraulic system versions; HY, HV, HZ (trailed) & HZ (self-propelled).
1. SPB-HY & SPC-HY
These types of booms are operated directly via the tractor hydraulics. Hydraulic lift cylinders are used for boom height adjustment and fold cylinders are used for simultaneous boom wing fold and unfold.
2. SPB-HV
This type of boom has the same features as the HY model, but also allows for individual boom wing fold and unfold. Hydraulic lift cylinders are used for boom height adjustment and fold cylinders are used for individual boom wing fold and unfold. The SPB-HV hydraulics are controlled with an electrical hydraulic control box.
3. SPB-HZ & SPC-HZ (trailed)
These types of booms have two boom wing tilt cylinders that give the ability to obtain individual boom wing tilt. Hydraulic lift cylinders are used for boom height adjustment and fold cylinders are used for individual boom wing fold and unfold. The hydraulics are controlled with various different electrical hydraulic controls depending on the model of sprayer.
4. SPC-HZ (self-propelled)
This type of boom has two boom wing tilt cylinders that give the ability to obtain individual boom wing tilt. Hydraulic lift cylinders are used for boom height adjustment and fold cylinders are used for simultaneous boom wing fold and unfold. The hydraulics are controlled with the HARDI® Spray center and the multifunctional Grip handle.
Note: Individual boom wing fold is not possible using the HY Hydraulic system (1) or the HZ self-propelled system (4).

Hydraulic systems
General info
Ensure that snap couplers are clean before connection!
After having operated the boom and the system has been filled with oil, check tractor’s hydraulic oil level and add oil if necessary.
DANGER! Test of the hydraulic system should be done very cautiously. There may be air trapped in the system which
can cause violent movements of the boom.
DANGER! Hydraulic leaks: Never use your fingers to locate a leakage in any part of the hydraulic system. Due to high
pressure, hydraulic oil may penetrate the skin.
Requirements - tractor (SPB/SPC HY-model)
Connection requirements are:
One single acting outlet for the lift function of the spray boom.
One double acting outlet for the folding function.
Ensure that snap couplers are clean before connection!
The boom’s hydraulic system requires an oil flow of approximately 0.8 GPM (3 liters/min.) and a minimum pressure of 1,950 PSI (130 bar).
ATTENTION! After having operated the boom and the system has been filled with oil, then check tractor’s hydraulic
oil level and add oil if necessary.
WARNING! Due to the variation in tractor hydraulic systems and capacities, care should be exercised when initially
±
operating the sprayer hydraulic cylinders. It is advisable to adjust the hydraulic flow control down to the minimum rate before operating the system. Adjust/increase the flow control after the system is bled of any air, if necessary.
Requirements - tractor (SPB HV-model)
Connection requirements are:
One double acting outlet for the lift and folding function of the spray boom.
Ensure that snap couplers are clean before connection!
The hydraulic hoses are marked with arrows and colored tie straps to indicate direction of oil flow. Red tie strap = pressure. Green tie strap = Return to tank. The hoses must be hooked up to the correct outlet for the hydraulics to function properly (pressure hose to pressure outlet, return hose to tank outlet).
The boom’s hydraulic system requires an oil flow of approximately 0.8 GPM (3 liters/min.) and a minimum pressure of 1,950 PSI (130 bar).

4.2
HZ hydraulic block
The hydraulic flow can be adjusted on the HZ hydraulic block if necessary. First set the hydraulic flow on the tractor so the boom raises and lowers at the desired speed. Then check the speed of the fold and tilt functions. If adjustment is necessary, loosen jam nut (A) and turn throttle valve (B) all the way in using an allen wrench. Then turn throttle valve (B) back out 1-1/2 turns. If the fold and tilt functions are too slow, turn throttle valve (B) out more. If the fold and tilt functions are too fast, turn throttle valve (B) in more. Tighten jam nut (A) when the desired speed is reached.
Open center hydraulics (trailed - optional equipment)
The open center hydraulic block is needed if the tractor uses open center hydraulics and/or if load sensing will be used.
The valve (1) on the side of the block is factory set for open center hydraulics, but if closed center hydraulics will be used (also in combination with load sensing) then screw in the valve.
Certain tractor models are able to use Load Sensing without connecting an external sensing line. But if optimal sensing control pressure cannot be obtained, an external sensing line needs to be mounted (3). Please consult your tractor dealer for correct setup and correct connection.
Before operating the hydraulics, the valve should be adjusted according to the specific tractor model. If you have doubt about which type of hydraulic system your tractor is equipped with, please consult your tractor dealer.
List of setting combinations for flow element and circuit value:
Valve no. 1 2 3 (LS port)
Open center out out Not conn.
Closed center in in Not conn.
Load sensing (LS) in out* Connected

WARNING! Always be sure to fully extract or retract the open/closed center selection valve (1). Failure to do so can
±
result in damages to vital pump parts.
WARNING! It is of essential importance that connectors on sensing line are kept totally clean. Failure to do so can
±
result in impurities entering the pump and thereby cause damages to vital pump parts.

Boom
Suspension effect adjustment (80’-100’ SPC only)
The SPC boom features adjustable suspension for 80’-100’ booms. The spring (A) has two assembly positions as shown on the illustration below. Position (1) can be used for 80’-90’ booms and position (2) can be used for 100’ booms.
Moving the assembly position further away from center (e.g. from pos. 1 to pos. 2) gives stiffer trapeze effect. The factory setting is position (1).

Maneuvering of the SPB booms - HY version (Ranger)
The SPB booms with hydraulic HY-version are operated as follows:
1. Activate the single acting hydraulic outlet to raise the boom and release it from the transport brackets.
2. Activate the double acting hydraulic outlet to unfold the boom. Both wings will now unfold simultaneously.
3. When the boom is completely unfolded, it can be raised or lowered to the desired spray height by activating the single
acting hydraulic outlet.
4. Before attempting to fold the boom back into transport position, it must be raised all the way to the top by activating the single acting outlet. This will enable the rear cylinder transport lock.
5. The boom is folded by activating the double acting outlet in the opposite direction that was used to unfold the boom. The boom can now be lowered into the transport brackets.
6. The rear cylinder transport lock will automatically engage when lowering the boom after it has been raised all the way to the top. To disengage the rear transport lock, simply raise the boom back up a few inches and then lower it again.
WARNING! Ensure that the rear cylinder transport locks are properly engaged before transport.
±
WARNING! The folding function must only be operated when the sprayer is stationary! Failure to do so will damage
±
the boom.
ATTENTION! Only unfold and fold the boom on level ground.
Note: Individual boom wing fold is not possible using the HY Hydraulic system.

The maintenance and replacement intervals for the following will depend very much on the conditions under which the sprayer will be operated and are therefore impossible to specify.
Nozzle tubes and fittings
Poor seals are usually caused by:
Missing O-rings or gaskets
Damaged or incorrectly seated O-rings
Dry or deformed O-rings or gaskets
Foreign bodies
In case of leaks:
DO NOT overtighten. Disassemble, check condition and position of O­ring or gasket. Clean, lubricate and reassemble.
The O-ring must be lubricated ALL THE WAY AROUND before fitting on to the nozzle tube. Use non-mineral lubricant.
For AXIAL connections, a little mechanical leverage may be used.
For RADIAL connections only hand-tighten them.

Readjustment boom - general info
Before beginning boom adjustments, please go through this check list:
1. The sprayer must be well lubricated (see part about lubrication).
2. Connect the sprayer to the tractor.
Place tractor and sprayer on level ground (horizontal).
3.
4. Unfold boom.
5. Set tilt angle of both wings to horizontal position.
6. Adjustment of hydraulic cylinders are done without pressure in the system.
6 - Maintenance
WARNING! No one is allowed to be under the boom while adjustment is carried out.
±
Alignment of center and inner wing sections (All booms)
1. Unfold the boom and check alignment of the inner section with the center section.
2. If adjustment is necessary, relieve pressure from the cylinder by folding the boom a few inches.
3. Disconnect cylinder rod eye (A) from the inner section. Note that some cylinder rods have a machined flat which can be used for adjustments. If using this one for adjustment, leave the rod eye pinned to the boom.
4. Loosen jam nut (B) and adjust the length of the rod eye (A). IN = to move the boom forward OUT = to move the boom rearward
5. Tighten the jam nut (B) again. (Reattach the cylinder rod to the boom again, if it has been loosened).
6. Pressurize the cylinder to check boom alignment.
6.5
6 - Maintenance
Alignment of inner and outer wing sections (All booms)
1. Unfold the boom and check that the boom wing is aligned. If adjustment is needed:
2. SPB type: Remove rubber stop (A) from the inner section. SPC type: Loosen stop device (A).
3. Adjust the position of the adjusting bolt (B) on the inner section so that the cap of the bolt head (B) contacts top stop plate on outer section with inner and outer sections aligned. Tighten it in this position.
4. SPB type: Replace rubber stop (A). SPC type: Tighten stop device (A).
SPB only: Please note that the rubber stop (A) should be compressed 1/8” - 3/16” (3-5 mm). Therefore, check that the distance between the tabs (C) is a little less than the length of the rubber stop itself. The rubber stop may need to be spaced out with 1 or more flat washers in order to obtain correct compression. Tighten nut to hold it in place.
Hydraulic stop valve adjustment (Dual Fold SPC only)
The hydraulic stop valves on the Dual Fold SPC booms are factory set and should not need adjustment. If a change is made to the alignment of the inner and outer wing sections or if the valves are replaced, they should be checked for proper adjustment
If adjustment is needed, completely unfold the inner and outer wing sections. Loosen jam nut (A) and adjust bolt (B) so it depresses the button (C) on the valve 1/8” - 3/16” (3-5mm). Tighten jam nut (A).

Adjusting the front fold cable (All booms)
The performance of the SPB/SPC boom while spraying depends very much on the front fold cable adjustment. A correctly adjusted cable will also control the movement of the outer section.
WARNING! The rear cable can snap and injure you or someone
±
else if tensioned when the boom is unfolded. Always adjust the front cable first - with the boom unfolded and the rear cable last
- with the boom folded in transport position.
1. Unfold the boom.
2. Check security of turnbuckle anchors to its hinges.
3. Secure a straight edge (A) to the top of the boom near the middle
of the front cable. Make sure that the straight edge is above, or just touching the cable, without deflecting it. Accurately measure the distance from the bottom of the straight edge (D) to the top of the cable (B).
4. Suspend a 10 lb (4.5 kg) weight (C) (HARDI® part #61007503) from the cable directly below the straight edge and re-measure the distance. The difference between the two measurements should be 1/4” - 3/8” (6 - 10 mm) for all booms except 120’/90’ Dual Fold boom, which needs to be 1/8” - 1/4” (3 - 6 mm).
If adjustment is needed:
5. Loosen jam nuts (E) on the turnbuckle assembly and adjust turnbuckle (F) for proper cable deflection.
6. Tighten jam nuts (E) again and remove weight.
6 - Maintenance
WARNING! Check boom alignment again. If front cable was
±
tightened, the wing assembly will move a bit forward. If front cable was loosened, the wing assembly will move a bit rearward. Therefore, adjust fold cylinder, if necessary, as described in the section “Alignment of center section and inner wing sections”.
Breakaway section adjustment (45’-66’ SPB)
The function of the breakaway section is to prevent or reduce boom damage, should it strike an object or the ground.
Check that the lower nut (A) is fully tightened. The breakaway should release with a force of 18 lbs (80 N) at the extremity. Please note that the clutch must be well greased before adjustment is commenced.
To adjust, loosen jam nut (B). Tighten nut (C) to stiffen clutch action. Tighten jam nut (B) after adjustment.
ATTENTION! Properly lubricate clutch assembly before adjusting
the tension. Bolts (D) must be torqued to 40 Ft/lb (55 Nm) every 40 hours to prevent boom damage. Lubricate every 8 hours to ensure maximum performance and life.
6.7
6 - Maintenance
Breakaway section adjustment (80’-100’ & Dual Fold SPC)
The function of the breakaway section is to prevent or reduce boom damage, should it strike an object or the ground.
Adjust the screw (A) until the breakaway will release at a force of 18 lbs (80 N) at the extremity. Please note that the clutch must be well greased before adjustment is commenced.
Check/adjust sprocket timing (45’-66’ SPB)
1. Unfold the boom and stand on its rear side.
2. Check that the pin connection (A) in the timing chain is aligned
with the center line (B) between the sprocket. Note forward driving direction (C) - adjustment is done at rearside of the boom. (A) is the 7th pin connection on the chain.
3. To adjust timing, loosen turnbuckles on the front and rear cables until slack.
4. Line up the chain and sprocket as indicated in step 2 above.
6.8
Adjusting boom level to ground (All booms)
Unfold the boom and check that the boom sections are parallel to the center frame and level to the ground. Adjust if necessary, as described below. Adjustment is carried out with the boom unfolded.
For SPB-HY & SPC-HY models, the following procedure is used:
1. Loosen lock nut (A).
2. Adjust nut (B) - in or out - until boom wing is level to the ground.
3. Secure lock nut (A) again. Same procedure applies to both sides.
For SPB-HZ & SPC-HZ models, the following procedure is used:
1. Ensure that cylinder is fully extended.
2. Loosen jam nut (A).
3. Apply an adjustable wrench to the machined surface at (B).
4. Turn the cylinder rod until boom is level to the ground.
5. Secure jam nut (A) again. Same procedure applies to both sides.

Adjusting rear cable (All booms)
1. Raise boom to its highest position. Fold it to transport position with tilt cylinders fully extended. Make sure that fold cylinders are pressurized and that the boom is folded all the way in.
2. Ensure the boom transport brackets are in contact with the outer wing. Adjust if necessary.
3. Loosen the jam nuts (E) on the ends of turnbuckle (F). Adjust the turnbuckle (F) so that the outer section contacts the boom transport bracket.
SPB boom (45-66’): Turn the turnbuckle another 4 complete turns.
SPC boom (80-100’): Turn the turnbuckle another 3 complete turns.
SPC dual fold boom (90’/60’): Turn the turnbuckle another 3 complete turns.
SPC dual fold boom (120’/90’): Turn the turnbuckle another 2 complete turns.
4. Secure jam nuts (E) again.
WARNING! The rear cable can snap and injure you or someone else if tensioned when the boom is unfolded. Always
±
adjust the front cable first - with the boom unfolded and the rear cable last - with the boom folded in transport position.
Adjusting center section cables (All except 120’/90’ Dual Fold)
The center section cables keep the center frame in correct position during folding procedure or when spraying with one side raised and folded (SPB-HZ only).
1. Fold the boom into transport position.
2. Check that the tilt cylinders are completely extended. Adjust if
necessary (HZ only).
3. Check that center section cable (A) is routed over center section nozzle bracket (B).
4. Loosen jam nuts on the bolt assembly (C). This applies to both boom wings.
5. Adjust the threaded bolt(s) (C). Alternate from side-to-side while making adjustments. As a guideline for adjustment, the distance (D) shown at the bolt assembly should be 4-5/16” (110 mm). Properly adjusted cables will be very tight and only deflect a small amount (fractions of an inch) when pulled by hand. Note that cables will be loose when the boom is unfolded.
6. Tighten jam nuts on the bolt assembly (C) again.
7. Unfold the boom and inspect that the center frame is correctly
centered.
ATTENTION! Adjust both boom wings in one sequence. Adjust one cable a small amount at the time, and then the
other cable, to equalize cable tension and maintain a level center frame.
WARNING! Never adjust the center cables without having folded the boom all the way into the transport position.
