GENERAL INFORMATION
The CSV Variable Width Chip Spreader is equipped
with a receiving hopper in the rear, moving aggregate
via belt conveyors to the vibrating spread hopper in

apply material accurately without overlaps. Typically
used on rural roads, subdivisions, parking lots and other
resurfacing jobs, operators can change the aggregate
rate at any time, even while chipping. Efî›™cient and
