2.4. CHARACTERISTIC OF THE MACHINE
The strength of the steel welded frame, together with the durability of the plastic hopper allow to obtain
an highest quality level of the spreaders.
The painting is made by an epoxy varnish with successive baking at 150° C with the application of a
primer, assuring a great protection and a long life of the machine.
Conical fertilizer P model has a distributor of fertilizer completely in stainless steel, the machine is
equipped with a disc with four vanes to adjust in four different positions, in order to get the maximum
spreading precision and uniformity in the distribution, depending on the type of material.
SPREADING DISC
The feeding of the disc is by gravity through an opening, located on the bottom of the hopper, inside of
which a mix/agitator is applied, in order to prevent the fertilizer lumps formation.
A sheet case is placed in front of the disc, in order to prevent the spreading in the front side of the
machine.
The fertilizer distribution is controlled by properly opening of the shutters in the hopper bottom, through
lock devices operated by levers.
The fertilizer spreader is connected through a gear box (1:1) with gears module 17 in order to be resistant,
absorbing possible power stress.
The PL version has a plastic hopper instead of steel, perfectly interchangeable with all the models
of P version.
On demand, it is possible to equip the machine with a lateral conveyor for spreading in the orchards.
