Twin dynamically balanced vertical augers – Widebody

Twin 34″ diameter dynamically balanced vertical augers have flights laser cut from heat treated BORON steel to improve strength and service life. 3/4″ thick reversible hardened cutters manufactured using BORON steel are bolted and supported along back edge, shred products leaving a wide and even spread. Two fixed position BORON steel bottom blades per auger give wider spread widths of materials that are either fine or wet

Horse shoe braced cutters

The horse shoe brace retains the cutter reducing the chance of them being knocked off or becoming loose

Built in flared extensions – 180

Built in flared extension sides add considerable carrying capacity to machines, spreader design load capacity should be checked relative to the density of the material to be carried

Double acting Hydraulic guillotine slurry door (End gate)

An extremely strong design and construction ensures that the door can be used as a grading device for light applications of materials as well as a device for retaining very running products

Full width floor slats – Widebody

Full width floor slats clear the whole floor eliminating the possibility of bridging – a problem sometimes encountered with multi slat floor systems. The socket fit design facilitates maintenance, which can be carried out in the field. It also allows the chain to pull straight, should a slat become bent

Floor chains – 3/4″

Grade 80 3/4″ heavy duty chains are drawn by high tensile sprockets. Sprockets are fitted to the front floor shaft as well as the driven rear shaft, ensuring perfect alignment and timing of the chains, which, in turn makes for a more reliable floor drive. Each chain has 55 tonne breaking load

One Piece Gearbox – Widebody

The robust one piece gearbox houses internal gear sets unique to Bunnings in order to ensure that auger speeds are optimised to achieve excellent spread patterns. They are large in diameter with 2/8″ output shafts manufactured from heat treated steel. The precision machined castings ensure perfect alignment of all the driveline components

Heavy Duty T80 Drive line

The PTO drive line uses Heavy Duty T80 shafts with 1 ¾” splined connections suited for heavy, demanding materials

Floor drive gearbox RT800

The 800 series floor drive gearbox is hydraulically driven to ensure an even feed of material to the spreading mechanism at all times. With a reverse feature, any foreign object too large to pass through the beaters can be easily removed. An adjustable cross-line relief valve also delivers additional protection. The Widebody 380HD models are fitted with 2 floor drive gearboxes as standard

Rubber cushion drive coupling

Green Auger With Blades And Drive Coupling

Especially developed to reduce shock loads to the auger drive gearbox, the rubber cushion arrangement located between the output shaft of the auger gearbox and the base of the auger contributes to the reliability and longevity of the machine

20 Tonne Sprung Drawbar

Weigh cell ready

Weigh cell ready is a standard feature on all Widebody and LoPro spreaders

Lift off augers

To enable the machine to be used for other jobs the auger assembly can be removed for the faster unloading of products such as grass, maize silage and even grain

Drop down covers for deck cleaning

To help clean out the deck area around the bottom of the augers these covers can be opened to allow material and water to flow out

Wide angle PTO assembly

The wide angle joint allows for turning on headlands with the PTO still engaged. It should be noted that the manufacturers recommend that you do not turn with the PTO under load

Stone guard extension

The stone guard extension gives more protection to the tractor cab from stones being thrown forward by augers/beaters

Floor chain tensioning – Widebody

A robust, simple and reliable floor tensioning system ensures floor chain tension can be easily adjusted in order to be kept to its optimum setting. Floor chains are visible from the exterior of the machine making it easy to judge when tensioning is required

Floor shaft bushes – Widebody

2 3/8″ floor drive shafts rotate through polyester re-inforced composite bushes that contain a solid graphite filler, chosen for their high load applications in a variety of environments they are greasable, further extending their life. Bush highlighted in red

Automatic light covers

Machines fitted with slurry doors have Automatic Light Covers as standard. A simple mechanism triggered by the slurry door, moves the light cover over the lights as the slurry door begins to open

Ground Level Greasing

Easy greasing of top bearings via low level greasing points

Cat 4 swivel ball

Cat 4 swivel ball with adjustable height to suit different tractor hitch heights

In cab electric floor speed control

The in-cab electric remote floor speed control allows the operator to make adjustments to the floor speed while on the move

Simple canopy – Widebody

Designed for use when spreading low applications of products like Lime and chicken litter, the canopy ensures that all material is spread by the bottom auger blades

Wide angle PTO c/w Cam Clutch

The wide angle joint allows for turning on headlands with the PTO still engaged. Instead of shear bolt protection a cam clutch can be fitted to PTO

Slurry door height indicator

This options allows the operator to monitor door opening positions in relation to application rates

Dual floor drive (for sludge cake) upgrade

The option to upgrade to Dual 800 series floor drive gives higher torque to aid in spreading dense materials, especially sludge cake. Only available on Twin Vertical Auger spreaders. Standard on 380 TVA spreaders

Sludge Cake Kit

This option includes closer position floor slats, angled pressings on the rear of the machine to prevent sticky products building up on flat surfaces and angle throwers on augers

SRT20 beater gearbox

The gearbox upgrade offers increased gearbox strength for improved longevity and durability in the toughest of conditions

HMW Plastic Floor

HMW plastic floor virtually eliminates the possibility of products sticking to the floor of the spreader. It can also improve the flow of products with high friction values. The material is extremely durable and is in addition to the spreaders standard floor construction

Detachable Spinner Deck

Detachable spinner deck can be attached to the rear of a vertical auger spreader in just a few minutes. Once fitted, products such as chicken manure, composts and lime can be spread evenly and accurately at low application rates

ISOCAN weigh cell system

The Topcon Apollo spreader controller has all the features for today’s farming techniques. The standalone ISOCAN screen enables independent control of spreader with only 12 Volt power required from tractor (more…)

ISOBUS ECU only weigh cell system

ISOBUS ECU only weigh cell system – The Topcon Apollo spreader controller has all the features for today’s farming techniques. ISOBUS ECU only is a “plug and play” system that requires a 3rd party ISOBUS screen in the tractor to control the spreader (more…)

NT560 weigh system basic

NT560 weigh system c/w Auto log & GPS

The NT560 system gives you a live application rate based on weight coming off the weigh cells. To achieve your desired rate, forward speed can be increased/decreased or floor speed adjusted to suit. The Auto log feature enables automatic recording of data when PTO is engaged. The GPS function records a map of applied product that can be downloaded and viewed on a computer

Overload beacon

Spreaders with a weigh cell system can have an overload beacon fitted. This helps operators loading the spreader know when a desired weight has been achieved to reduce chance of overloading. Beacon is magnetic and can be moved to improve visibility
