This versatile towed broadcast-spreader from Handy is a dual-purpose unit – it can be used during the growing-season for the application of fertiliser, pesticide and grass-seed, or during the winter months, you can broadcast salt to help keep your paths, driveway and other hard-surface areas ice-free. Offering fantastic large-area productivity, the Handy THTS175 has a substantial 3.66m (12ft) maximum spread-width and boasts an impressive 80kg (175lbs) load-capacity (to reduce spread-width, simply cut your tractor’s ground-speed). Further noteworthy features include a hopper-screen that prevents performance-limiting clogging; and a rain-cover that will keep the hopper-contents dry if you’re working in typically damp British conditions. DO NOT USE WITH ROCK SALT: Using rock salt in this spreader will damage the mechanism and shorten the life of the product. Refined ice melting salt can be used, but the user should be aware that using salt may corrode certain components of the spreader and reduce the life of the machine. Clean the spreader thoroughly after using refined de-icing salt.
