FUNCTIONS AND ACCESSORIES

STANDARD EQUIPMENT

Stainless steel material hopper with strong lift points in all corners
Conveyor made of 30 cm wide all-steel pintle chain with 5×20 mm cross bars
Inverted V prevents material compaction and reduces wear on drive train components
High quality chute in stainless steel guides the material from the conveyor to the spinner plate
Extra wide rear deflector protects the rear and undercarriage of the vehicle

*Calculations based on the following application rates: Dry salt 30g/m², Pre-Wet 17g/m², Brine 35ml/m². With a Pre-Wet system the application rate is significantly lower, as the pre-wetted salt bonds to the ground and immediately start breaking up the ice.
