The new sand/salt spreaders are equipped with a new type spreading system: a hydraulically operated pendulum spreading plate which moves horizontally and spreads the material. Spreading plate height can be adjusted following the material type, which allows spreading of gravel as well as finer sand and salt. A blocking plate kit, available as an option, is necessary when spreading salt and fine sand (prevents the material from falling out by itself). The unit spreads about 8” - 12” wider than the spreader’s own width, and thanks to smooth movement of the spreading plate there is no risk of causing damage to the objects around (parked cars, buildings etc.). Spreading speed can be adjusted steplessly with a flow divider valve.
