What makes Apache the best sprayer in the world? There is really no magic about it - it is merely patient attention to detail.

1. Simplicity – We make our sprayers simple to operate and maintain. Our direct drive concept means more power to the ground, where it should be, and no hydrostatic wheel motors to fail.

2. Traction – Proper distribution ensures that the right amount of weight is on the rear axles for reliable traction. Our torque-converted transmissions can multiply engine torque up to two times and our limited slip differentials provide positive traction to both rear wheels in slippage conditions.

3. Fuel Efficiency – Our direct drive power train means more efficient use of engine power and lower fuel usage. 50% less fuel used according to our customers. If you are still pulling a tillage tool or sprayer across a field with a tractor, it is probably time that you took a closer look at an Apache.

4. Weight – The Apache is the lightest machine on the market in every class – 750, 1000 and 1200. It is easier to handle and creates less compaction.

5. Suspension - Our patented hydraulic suspension in the front and rear gives the Apache the best ride in the industry. The hydraulic suspension also has an anti-sway feature designed to keep the axle and frame parallel to each other when making a sharp turn thus keeping the boom level and out of the dirt. It also has automatic leveling that adjusts for varying weight in the tank, which allows for the same excellent ride whether the tank is full or empty.

6. Road Speed – The quick, smooth ride makes road travel less of a hassle and helps you get to your destination faster.

7. Finish – We sandblast every plate steel part to remove any defect, then thoroughly clean and powder coat with a minimum 3-millimeter thickness to create maximum chemical, ultraviolet, and abrasion resistance.

8. Quality Control – The finished sprayer spends a full day in the test shop being fine-tuned. Here it is subjected to 64 separate ordeals. We check every component on the machine for fit, finish and functionality. We even check the cast and camber of the front tires with a digital protractor.

9. Fill Rate - We are able to fill orders for spare parts on a same day basis 98% of the time. We have the parts you need, when you need them.

10. Warranty – The Apache offers an industry best five-year limited warranty, including bumper-to-bumper full parts and service for the first full year of ownership.

11. Outstanding Dealers – Our dealers are equally committed to making sure you are happy with your purchase. Each has knowledgeable, high quality service personnel trained in all the up-to-date methods of servicing the Apache. Our dealers are there for you after the sale to make sure the Apache is getting the job done.

12. Over 2000 Units Spraying - In those markets where we have established distribution, we are often the number one selling sprayer.

13. Focus of Service Personnel – We have qualified service personnel at the home office whose sole job is to support our customers and dealers. They are accessible by phone twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week, year round. We understand that you cannot afford down time.

14. APACHE's Hold Their Value – On average an APACHE sprayer is still worth 76% of its original cost after 5 years. Simple, rugged, and reliable means they do their job for a long time.
