  Mako 450

The 440, 440NT, and 450 Makos are the newest member of the GVM equipment lineup. The Mako is aggressive yet nimble and quick, made to conquer any field and increase your profits. The Mako features a reliable, mechanical drive powertrain and the industry's lightest footprint to minimize soil compaction and allow you to get into the fields earlier than its larger competitors.

Designed for high-speed, low-volume spraying, the Mako runs strong all season.

The GVM Mako features a Cummins engine and an all-mechanical powertrain. It is driven by a Tier 3, 130 horsepower, 4.5L Cummins QSB engine and paired with an automatic Allison five-speed transmission. The Mako’s resilient powertrain provides unparalleled reliability to keep you in motion all season long. 

The turbo charged and charge air cooled Cummins QSB4.5 reaches Tier 3 and stage IIIA compliance with compact in-cylinder technology that makes machines work harder, more intelligently, more quietly, and for longer periods of time. 

The automatic Allison 2100 series transmission with a torque converter lock-up provides smooth, flawless, full-power shifts to quickly put maximum engine power to the ground for quick acceleration and higher average road speeds.

The Mako’s cab was designed specifically for comfortable and easy spraying. The Mako cab features an air suspension seat with height and lumbar adjustment, seat recline, and seat cushion tilt. To expand your overall comfort, its sound dampening system decreases engine noise, a charcoal cab filter eliminates harmful chemicals from the air, and a high-output A/C system keeps you cool, even on the hottest days.

Large enough for a comfortable, full day of application, the cab features nearly 70 cubic feet of space, but is compact enough that all controls are only an arm’s length away. The Mako is simple to learn and operate with its simple controls and uncomplicated dash.

With almost 30 square feet of glass, including a solid glass entry door, operators have an almost 360° view of the field. A clear view of the front tires and spraying system allows operators to comfortably monitor performance without struggling to see or leaving the comfort of their air suspension seat.

• Full glass door with an unobstructed view
• Straightforward and well-structured controls
• An air ride seat for the most comfortable ride
• Air-conditioned
• Tilt and telescoping adjusted steering wheel
• Charcoal filter

The 2017 GVM Mako comes standard with ISO controls. Choose your preferred Ag Leader, Raven, TeeJet, Trimble, John Deere, or Case guidance system.

Efficient Lightweight Spraying

Application windows are often short, so when it's time to run, you have to be ready. The reliable power of the GVM Mako will get you to the field first, even in wet, typically unsuitable conditions. Due to the small, 400-gallon poly tank, lightweight design, and mechanical drivetrain, you won't have to worry about soil compaction or marking up fields.

GVM’s spray system is designed for many seasons of heavy duty work. The Mako comes standard with light, yet durable steel booms designed with extra support and an inner breakaway or choose a Pommier aluminum boom to spray further while reducing your overall weight.
