The 1040 and 1560 Bucket models are specifically designed to be self loading. Each are driven by Hydraulics and require a mounting bracket, listed below.
Features may include:
A unique polymer finger bar has a flexible memory in cold weather and retains its shape. The bar defines pressure and helps release an even quantity of de-icing material as seen with the cross hatch pattern when material is dropped.
The rotating distributor drums spread de-icing material in an even and consistent cross hatch pattern. De-icing material can then "creep" and spread out which results in an efficient use of material.
The rotating distributor drums spread de-icing material in an even and consistent cross hatch pattern.
The agitator bar rotates in the hopper to help keep salt and sand from bridging or clumping. The bar ensures the material passes through to the drum and then to the ground for an even application.
The assembly regulates the rate of flow for different types of material (i.e.: fine sand vs coarse salt). The lever allows for fine tuning of the rate of flow of material.
Flow control is included to reduce hydraulic flow from the tractor to the distribution drum. It allows the operator to control distribution quantity.
