Agribuggy A280
Kellands world-famous Agribuggy is a high-performance self-propelled crop sprayer that delivers a greater power to weight ratio and fuel economy than any of its rivals. Its unique low ground pressure design enables operators to go where other sprayers can't - working in wet conditions and tough terrain and allowing safe, productive working earlier and later in the year than rivals.
Operator environment
Stylish and functional, the new Generation 3 cab features curved glass, cutting down on reflections, improving visibility, and making the Agribuggy more pleasing on the eye. Cab size has been increased and a roof-mounted heat and air-conditioning system ensures a pleasant working environment, whatever the weather outside.
Next generation cab

A space-efficient 360-degree curved glass cab and a floating control console that moves with the motion of the seat enhance comfort, safety and precision.
Power and performance
Agribuggy features a new Cummins 148hp power pack, a 4-speed heavy-duty automatic transmission with 2-speed transfer box, a lockable centre differential and an independent parking brake. The lean-burn engine boosts efficiency by delivering the lowest running and maintenance costs in class.
In the field and on the road
Agribuggy features four-wheel steering and a unique low centre of gravity design, for a winning combination of power, visibility and finger tip control. Operators can switch between two and four wheel drive, adjusting performance to suit the conditions and maximum speeds of up to 50 km/h. The machine’s low-ground pressure capabilities, reduce both compaction and damage when working in the field.
