8300
Fast offers two vertical fold 30’/40’ applicator models – the 8000N Series and 8300 Series.
Both applicators feature Fast’s field-proven design with single tube 7”x7” toolbar and the ability to fold a 40’ toolbar to apply at 30’ width. Both models feature Fast’s patented Stealth style tank design with a low center of gravity and a deep sump. The 8300 Series features tanks sizes ranging from 1050-2400 gallons while the 8000N model offers 1050 and 1350 gallon tanks. The 8300 model has to ability to be set up with 17 coulters on 30” spacing, comes standard with 380/90R46 single tires, and has shorter parallel linkage vs. the 8000N model. The 8000N model features narrower transport width at 15’ wide, smaller standard tires, and arrives at a lower price point than the 8300 model.
Both models feature the same high quality design and dependability that Fast is known for. Both models come standard with active hydraulic downforce on the toolbar to effectively follow ground contours as well as hydraulic WingKick ™ to hydraulically tilt up the outer wings when the toolbar is raised.
What You Need To Know About the 8300?
Standard Features
Tank and Trailer
Low-profile, patented “stealth” tank design improves rear vision and improves stability
Excellent axle adjustability

Single-reach tongue enables a sharper turning radius with less crop damage
Short-coupled trailer minimizes crop damage on hills and during turns, resulting in greater yield
Long-lasting hydraulic pump features a flow limiter for overspeed protection
2-speed heavy-duty jack stand with safe and easy hooking and unhooking
Dual-wheel capable with three axle width options
High crop clearance
Baked-on powder coat paint resists effects of harsh chemicals, increasing equipment life and resale
Toolbar
- Flexible Row Spacing Options – 10” to 40”
- 7″x7″ single tube toolbar used on 20″-40″ coulter spacing
- 5″x7″ double tube toolbar used in 10″ and 15″ coulter spacing (only available with a 1800 or 2400 gallon tank)
- External hydraulic fold cylinder enables operator to fold in the toolbar at the maximum length and still use it at the lesser length
- Trademarked wing kick feature engages when toolbar is lifted up, tilting up the outer wings, resulting in less crop damage
- Hydraulic down pressure on the wings gives coulters better ground penetration and more consistent application, ultimately resulting in higher yields
- Flexing toolbar promotes better ground penetration, even depth control and fertilizer placement in uneven terrain
- Two-gauge wheels help achieve consistent application across toolbar
Fast Cast AP Coulters
- Patented AP coulter design places nitrogen at a consistent depth and flexible mounting
- Coulter is cast for long term-durability, ability to offset shank in eight different positions, and increased stability in varying soil conditions
- Coulter casting increases stability and minimizes deflection in the field, resulting in more consistent nitrogen placement
- Hex shank design allows toolbars to match up with nearly any row spacing and provides ability to offset 7.5” to the left or right quickly without additional brackets
- Ability to set degree of coulter swivel
Technology
- Every Fast liquid fertilizer applicator can be equipped with an ISO rate controller (Raven RCM or John Deere Greenstar) to work seamlessly with your in-cab tractor display to offer mapping, auto section control, and variable rate capability.
- Capstan Tattler System - Electronic Flow/Blockage Detection, Variable Rate Nozzles, and Rate Control. Fully integrated ISO system that provides electronic flow/blockage detection and rate control integrated into one screen/page on your tractor's ISO display. System is unique as it has a very wide flow range with the ability to flow 0-8 GPM per row and provides much more consistent row-to-row flow distribution compared to other variable rate nozzles. Saves time by eliminating the need to change tips or orifices when changing rates and allows for variable rate/prescriptions to be used in the field. Available as a factory installed option on all Fast Applicators.
