The MFS 800 Semi MK-12 adds hydraulic boom lift to the 800-litre mounted platform. On land that rolls — and most Western Cape vegetable ground does — boom height is the single biggest factor in even application. Raising and lowering from the seat, on the move, keeps the nozzles at the right height over every part of the field instead of the average of it.
Everything else is shared with the MFS family: AR 135 BP pump, UCM 4 four-section control, and the 12-metre MK boom with ARAG triple bodies at 50 cm spacing.
Boom height drives drift and coverage more than any nozzle choice: 10 cm too high doubles drift potential, too low leaves striping. Hydraulic lift means you correct it on the move — into a hollow, over a rise — without stopping to crank.
The Annovi Reverberi AR 135 BP is a 550 rpm PTO-driven diaphragm pump with three BlueFlex semi-hydraulic diaphragms. It delivers up to 132 litres per minute at a maximum 20 bar — comfortable headroom to feed the full boom at working pressure while keeping the tank agitated.
The AR UCM 4 gives you a master shut-off, glycerine-filled pressure gauge and four section valves, each with anti-drip return suction — close half the boom on a headland without changing the pressure on the rest. A self-cleaning 50-mesh line filter sits ahead of the nozzles, so a dirty dam refill doesn't end the day.
The MK boom folds manually and carries ARAG triple nozzle bodies at 50 cm spacing — swap between flat-fan, air-induction and hollow-cone tips in seconds by rotating the body, no tools. Sprung boom ends shrug off the fence pole you didn't see.

The Semi earns its premium on ground where a fixed boom height is always wrong somewhere:
It denotes the hydraulically lifted boom frame: raise and lower the full 12 m boom from the tractor seat using a single-acting hydraulic circuit. Folding remains manual, as on the standard MK boom.
The AR 135 BP pump needs only about 5 kW (6.8 hp) at the PTO, so the limiting factor is lift capacity and stability with a full 800 L tank on the three-point hitch. Most utility tractors handle it comfortably — send us your tractor model and we'll confirm before you order.
Yes. Pump diaphragms and seals, control unit parts, nozzle bodies and tips are stocked at our Oudtshoorn workshop. Email abie@timagri.com or WhatsApp a photo of the part — most items ship same week.
Every TIMAGRI sprayer is commissioned on your farm: nozzles matched to your rows and target rate, pressure verified across all sections, and the operator walked through the controls before the first tank goes out.
Crop, row spacing, tractor horsepower — that's all we need to quote the right configuration, usually within one working day.
