UNIQUE FEATURES
|
Unique_features
Corrosion-Resistant Hopper
The one-piece, double-walled hopper is built of durable polyethylene for corrosion-free performance, whether using rock salt, calcium chloride, sand or any other type of de-icing material.
|
Material Delivery
One of the widest in the industry, the 15½" pintle chain conveyer delivers reliable, smooth, and consistent material flow to help reduce bridging. The corrosion-resistant stainless steel conveyor housing provides added protection and reliability.
|
Dual Electric Motors
Two instant-start, 12-volt electric motors provide quiet, reliable and independent control over the conveyor and spinner mechanisms. The spinner motor is sealed inside a weather-resistant housing, protecting it from corrosion.
|
Controls
Enhanced dual variable-speed control allows you to precisely match material delivery and spread patterns to conditions.
Four standard accessory buttons and a dedicated blast button provide optimum in-cab efficiency.
Easy-to-understand, digital self-diagnostics alert the operator when the hopper is empty or when adjustments are needed, and LEDs make the controls easy to read.
Its compact size compared to traditional controls fits easily into today’s modern truck cab designs.
|
Spinner & Spreading Width
An extra large 15½" polyurethane spinner delivers a spread pattern of up to 40' and provides long-lasting, corrosion-free performance.
|
Adjustable Feed Gate
An adjustable feed gate controls the amount of material flowing from the hopper to the spinner to regulate material flow.
|
Drop Chute
The adjustable-height poly drop chute accommodates both pickup truck and flatbed applications, ensuring a proper spreading height. The entire drop chute is easily removed for off-season storage.
|
Cover
The two-piece poly hopper cover shields de-icing material from the elements. The Tornado™ spreader’s overlapping hopper design seals out moisture while molded water grooves direct runoff away from the hopper. When opened, the covers form a spill guard to keep overflow material out of your truck.
|
Top Screen
The standard coated steel top screen helps break up large chunks of de-icing material during the loading process to help prevent clogging and bridging during spreader operation.
|
Accessory Integration
Conveniently connect accessories directly into the fully enclosed accessory hub mounted in the back of the hopper. Accessories automatically integrate with the hopper control without having to run additional wires from the front of the truck.

Featured_Accessories
CENTRAL POINT GREASE KIT
The Central Point Grease Kit provides easy access to grease points, simplifying preventative maintenance greasing that is essential to maximize bearing life.
|
PRE-WET SYSTEM
The pre-wet system accessory allows the operator to activate deicing material by applying a liquid deicing agent directly on the material prior to leaving the hopper, providing you with increased material efficiency and superior ice control.
|
VIBRATOR KIT
Loosen up with this Vibrator Kit to help move stubborn material and prevent bridging. Featuring a 200V DC vibrator motor in a metal housing, our vibrator will help prevent bridging and clogging, improving material flow so you can do your job faster and better.
