SAM Orchard Spreader 2.5 Cube Simple and versatile. With the same practical design and easy to use operation that all SAM???s are known for, SAM Orchard Spreaders are made to meet the needs of modern orchards. They have a lower profile and narrower width, and provide great versatility around what you are able to spread. Designed primarily for spreading organic matter such as compost, green matter and mulch. This machine will also spread processed fertiliser like superphosphate, lime and urea with absolutely no change-over time! SAM Computer control This Orchard Spreader includes a computer controlled hydraulic floor. The SAM controller allows you to choose between spreading or banding at the touch of a button. Rates are input and you are away. Banding compost, green matter and mulch using the side conveyor The floor mat moves toward the front of the machine, moving material onto the side banding conveyor. This creates a precise banding or piling pattern in full view of the operator. Spreading organic material and processed fertilisers using spinners For a spread pattern behind the machine, the floor mat moves backwards toward the spinners. For different planting centres, spread widths can be changed by setting the speed of the spinners and from the controller. Minimum of 40 l/min required from your tractor. Smart features SAM computer controller Turning on and off and controlling the speed of the 800 wide floor mat is simple. Just use the intuitive controller in your tractor. The controller is also suitable for open cabs due to its high water rating (IP67). Side conveyor for banding. 2 for 1! This compact conveyor spreads material in a line to the right hand side of the Orchard Spreader. Great for banding where you need to apply product in a line or a pile. Designed to be in full view of the operator. There is also absolutely no change-over time between banding and spreading. Instant control switch Simply flick the switch for instant starting and stopping of application. No more anticipating when your product is going to come out. More stainless for longevity Majority stainless at the rear of the machine, extends longevity of gear where you need it most. Stainless discs are run via enclosed stainless spinner tubes and two well proven speed adjustable hydraulic motors. Strong stainless panels Stainless bins are extremely corrosion resistant. Chassis???s have seen a new evolution of painting procedure for extra corrosion protection. Firstly a steel grit abrasive blast, then a thermal-arc pure zinc spray, a primer followed by a final two-pot epoxy top-coat. Tough stuff! Even does mulch! There are three positions for the front door depending on what you are wanting to spread 1 Closed (for spreading at rear), 2 Half open (for banding at a volumetric rate) and 3 Completely removed (mulch, woodchip, bark, compost or green waste).
