A 500 litre tractor towed salt spreader which has been found very useful for ground staff at colleges, universities and hospitals for gritting roadways and car parks. Narrow enough that it can be used as a high capacity footpath salt spreader with local authorities.
The TS500 our smallest hydraulic tractor towed salt spreader with a hopper capacity of 0.5m3 to take approximately 600 kg of salt. Capable of spreading wet or dry -brown or white salt via its unique Pozi-Feed stainless steel auger system. Fitted with unbraked axles and road going wheels and tyres. The spreading circuit is powered from the tractors hydraulics or the tractor PTO.
